Using the LAN’s X Window Interface

To load the custom fonts

1 From the computer running your Xserver software, access the

logic analyzer’s file system.

Refer to the "Accessing the Logic Analyzer File System" chapter.

2 Copy the SM165.BDF and LG165.BDF files from the analyzer’s

\system\disk\hard\system directory to a directory on your

computer.

3 Set up the Xserver so that it can read these fonts.

Refer to your XWindows server documentation for instructions on

loading and using custom fonts. Generally, the steps you will take are:

a Compile the .BDF files into the proper format.

b Build the font directory (FONTS.DIR) file.

c If the font directory is not in the current font path, add the

new directory to the font path.

The custom fonts make the analyzer’s XWindow interface look identical

to the instrument’s display. If the custom fonts are not loaded, you will

see odd characters in place of arrow symbols and may see out-of-

bounds text in the XWindow image.
