DAS System User Manual
3–1
Reference
This chapter provides reference information for the system menus, utility menus,
and the associated overlays for those menus. It also provides information on
multimodule operation. For detailed information on the Setup and Display
menus for the acquisition and pattern generation modules, refer to the individual
module user manual. For information on the Application menus, refer to the
appropriate manual for that application.
System Configuration Menu
The System Configuration menu provides an inventory of your logic analysis
system. It displays the following information:
H
The contents (installed cards) of your mainframe
H
The identification number of the currently selected module formation
H
The contents of clusters
This menu provides the mechanisms for changing module formations and
creating clusters. These mechanisms are discussed in this chapter.
The modules installed in the mainframe are automatically arranged into module
formations. System software assigns a module formation identification number
to each valid combination. The default module formation selection (labeled
number 0) appears the first time you call the System Configuration menu. By
changing the module formation number, you can view the various module
formations for that type.
A module formation consists of one or more similar-type modules, and each
module may contain one or more cards of that type. Changing the cards installed
in slots dramatically changes the module formations that can be selected. Some
configurations are more versatile than others.
For instance, suppose your mainframe contains two 92C96D Modules. System
software establishes the valid combinations when you power on the system and
assigns each combination a module formation number. A module formation
(identified by number) now exists for the 92C96D Modules.
