To view trace lists and waveforms together on the
same display
1 Set up the modules whose data you wish to view as part of a group
run.
You won’t need to do this if the two measurement modules for which you
want mixed display are really part of the same module. For example, you
might have an HP 16550A state/timing analyzer configured as two separate
analyzers, one a state analyzer, the other a timing analyzer. You can use
mixed display to view the timing analyzer waveform with the trace lists from
the state analyzer.
2
Select the module for which you wish to show waveforms.
This might be an oscilloscope module or a timing analyzer.
3 Select the label field to the left of the waveform display area twice,
then choose the waveforms to be shown.
When you double-select the label field to the left of the waveform display
area, a new menu appears that allows you to insert and delete signals and
choose the relative display size and position for the signals.
4
Select the state analyzer.
5 Set the Trigger menu of the state analyzer and set the Count field to
Time.
Timing analyzers and digitizing oscilloscopes implicitly count time because
their sampling is driven by an internal clock, rather than an external state
clock. See the manual for your logic state analyzer for details on how to count
time with the analyzer.
6
To insert state listings, select any label field from the state listing.
From the popup that appears, select the desired label to insert.
7 Select Mixed Display from the menu field.
8 Select Group Run from the upper right corner of the display.
You can position X and O Time markers on the waveform display, if desired.
Once set, the time markers will be displayed in both the listing and the
waveform display areas. Note that even if you set X and O Time markers in
another display, you must also set the Time markers in the Mixed Display if
Time markers are desired.
