is usually represented as decimal
numbers separated by periods; for
example, 192.35.12.6. Ask your LAN
administrator if you need an internet
address.
labels Labels are used to group and
identify logic analyzer channels. A
label consists of a name and an
associated bit or group of bits. Labels
are created in the Format tab.
line numbers A line number (Line
#s) is a special use of symbols. Line
numbers represent lines in your
source file, typically lines that have
no unique symbols defined to
represent them.
link-level address Also referred to
as the Ethernet address, this is the
unique address of the LAN interface.
This value is set at the factory and
cannot be changed. The link-level
address of a particular piece of
equipment is often printed on a label
above the LAN connector. An
example of a link-level address in
hexadecimal: 0800090012AB.
local session A local session is
when you run the logic analysis
system using the local display
connected to the product hardware.
logic analysis system The Agilent
Technologies 16700A/B-series
mainframes, and all tools designed to
work with it. Usually used to mean
the specific system and tools you are
working with right now.
machine Some logic analyzers allow
you to set up two measurements at
the same time. Each measurement is
handled by a different machine. This
is represented in the Workspace
window by two icons, differentiated
by a 1 and a 2 in the upper right-hand
corner of the icon. Logic analyzer
resources such as pods and trigger
terms cannot be shared by the
machines.
markers Markers are the green and
yellow lines in the display that are
labeled x, o, G1, and G2. Use them to
measure time intervals or sample
intervals. Markers are assigned to
patterns in order to find patterns or
track sequences of states in the data.
The x and o markers are local to the
immediate display, while G1 and G2
are global between time correlated
displays.
master card In a module, the
master card controls the data
acquisition or output. The logic
analysis system references the
module by the slot in which the
master card is plugged. For example,
a 5-card Agilent Technologies 16555D
would be referred to as Slot C:
