Programming the Logic Analyzer Using the LAN
You can program the logic analyzer over the Local Area Network (LAN)
by sending commands to the \system\program file or by sending
commands to the command parser socket.
This chapter shows you how to:
• Set up for Ethernet programming.
• Enter commands directly using telnet.
• Write programs that open the command parser socket.
The logic analyzer does not provide real-time programming control.
Due to the message handling protocol of the Ethernet LAN, messages
take varying, indeterminate amounts of time to reach their
destinations. There can be no guarantee that commands sent from your
computer will reach the logic analyzer in a timely way.
For information on your logic analyzer’s programming commands, refer
to the appropriate Programmer’s Guide.
The Command Parser Socket
You can telnet to the logic analyzer’s command parser socket and send
programming commands directly, or you can write a program that
opens the socket and sends commands to it.
Connection to the command parser socket is, by definition, a control
user connection. Because only one control user connection is allowed,
you will not be able to connect to the command parser socket if
someone else is accessing the logic analyzer’s file system as the control
user.
