TLA 711 Color Benchtop Controller Service Manual
A setup window exists for each module in the logic analyzer. It contains all of the
setup information for the benchtop controller such as clocking, memory depth,
threshold information, and channel information. Menus and dialogs contain
information to set up the window as needed. Most of the changes that you make
in the menus or dialogs take effect at the end of the acquisition; however, probe
threshold changes take effect immediately. Refer to the online help and the
TLA 700 Series Logic Analyzer User Manual for additional information.
Most of the user information for operating the benchtop controller is available
through the online Windows Help screens. Refer to your Microsoft Windows
documentation for additional information on using Windows Help.
Refer to the online help for more information on the individual menus, icons, and
fields within each window. You may also want to refer to the TLA 700 Series
Logic Analyzer User Manual for additional information.
Diagnostics
The benchtop controller performs power-on BIOS diagnostics every time you
power on the mainframe. The diagnostics window displays when any of the
diagnostic tests fail. To access the diagnostics tests, use the System pull-down
menu.
In addition to power-on diagnostics, there are two other utilities to aid in
troubleshooting. The other two utilities are QAPlus/WIN and the TLA 700
Mainframe Diagnostics. Refer to the Maintenance section for information on
diagnostics.
