Capture and Trigger Setup Chapter 4, Xgig TraceControl Capture Configuration
Xgig Analyzer User’s Guide 129
The Trigger appears with a transition line from the previous state to the Triggered state. The
Trigger and its transition line are always red. The Trigger transition is always the first
transition for a state for 6G SAS/SATA and 12G SAS, but it can be moved for PCIe.
To delete a transition, follow these steps.
1 Click the transition bubble for the transaction that contains the action you want to delete
(either the trigger or a transition to another state).
The action for that transition appears in the Actions pane.
2
Click the action.
3 Click to delete the action.
Once you have created several states, you can use the arrows in the menu bar above the
Overview pane to move the states up or down. You cannot move the Trigger transition up or down
for 6G SAS/SATA or 12G SAS, but you can for PCIe. The Trigger is always the first transition for
a state for 6G SAS/SATA and 12G SAS. If you want to zoom in or out, use the
zoom
and fit to window buttons. To delete an entire state from the configuration, use the
delete icon in the menu bar. Note that this icon is different from the delete icon in the Actions
pane, which deletes only the assigned action from a transition. To collapse or expand all the
template names in the state and transition bubbles, use the
collapse/expand button.
Burst Type Capture
In previous releases of Xgig Analyzer, there was a Burst Capture Mode , which allowed you to
capture data surrounding an event. While the current software no longer supports
Burst Capture
Mode , it does include features that allow you to create the same burst effect for single burst and
continuous burst.
Single Burst
To capture data in a single burst, follow these steps:
1 Select Trigger from the Trigger Mode drop-down menu. This two-state trigger includes
Pre-Triggered and Triggered states.
2 Define the trigger event in the Transition Editor .
3
Set the post trigger fill to 100% in the trigger bubble on the
Capture and Trigger Setup
tab.
