level control is useful for manually debugging GPIB activity. In
addition, these switches can be manipulated automatically at high
speed by the Pattern Generator utility when real-time testing and
simulation are required.
The GPIB-410 has high-level GPIB analysis tools. It can capture large
amounts of information from the GPIB at full speed, without interfering
with GPIB activity. This capture of GPIB status can be related to
specific user-selectable GPIB events, a user-selectable internal clock
rate, or an external clock input. This information is then interpreted in a
high-level format. You can browse or pattern search through the
captured data directly on the screen, log it to a disk, and obtain a
printed output copy. With multiple-level triggering, you can trigger on a
pattern or sequence of patterns on the GPIB. This triggering feature is
useful in focusing on a particular range of activity for capture.
