TLA7AXX/TLA7NAX Logic Analyzer Module Service Manual
Merged Modules
The logic analyzer allows you to merge individual 102-channel or 136-channel
module modules to provide a logic analyzer module with up to 680 channels.
The following procedures provide information for merging and unmerging logic
analyzer modules.
The following logic analyzer module merging rules must be followed:
H
Only modules with 102 or 136 channels can be merged.
H
Logic analyzer modules must be in adjacent slots and physically connected.
H
Logic analyzer modules cannot be merged across mainframes.
H
Merging logic analyzer modules with unequal memory depths will result in
the merged modules assuming the depth of the shallowest module.
H
Merging logic analyzer modules with unequal speeds will result in the
merged modules assuming the speed of the slowest module.
H
When merging logic analyzer modules of unequal channel widths, use the
logic analyzer module with the highest number of channels as the master
module. If there is a second slave module, the first slave must have greater
than or equal the number of channels as the second slave module. Slave 3
cannot have more channels than the master, slave 1 or slave 2. Slave 4
cannot have more channels than the master, slave 1, slave 2, or slave 3. See
Figure 2--6 on page 2--11 to determine the location of the master module
with the merged module set.
H
The logic analyzer modules must have the same firmware version.
H
The maximum merged combinations are two TLA7Lx and TLA7Mx logic
analyzer modules; three TLA7Nx, TLA7Px, or TLA7Qx logic analyzer
modules; and five TLA7Axx and TLA7NAx logic analyzer modules.
H
TLA7Nx, TLA7Px, and TLA7Qx Logic analyzer modules cannot be merged
with TLA7Lx and TLA7Mx Logic analyzer modules (even if they are
connected together).
H
TLA7Axx and TLA7NAx modules cannot be merged with TLA7Nx,
TLA7Px, TLA7Qx, TLA7Lx, or TLA7Mx modules.
H
Any combination of TLA7Axx and TLA7NAx modules (up to five) can be
merged.
H
To merge a logic analyzer module to an established merged set, the
established merged set must first be unmerged through software. Unmerged
modules are the only potential candidates to add to a merged configuration.
