3.6.2 Tool Bar
FIGURE 3-9: TOOL BAR
The tool bar gives quick access to often used commands. These commands are also
available from the menu bar.
• View: Basic/Advanced – toggles between Basic and Advanced views
• Flash LED – Flashes the Red Busy LED to confirm communications
• Reset – Resets the PICkit Serial Analyzer if an error condition is present
• Basic Operations – Displays the Basic Operations window for the communications
mode selected
• Configure – (Advanced View only) – Displays the Configuration window for the
communications mode selected
3.6.3 Status Column
The Status Column displays status information for the selected serial communications
mode. In Basic View mode, a simplified status is displayed as shown in Figure 3-10. In
Advanced View mode additional status information is displayed for the communications
mode selected as shown in Figure 3-11.
The status information that is displayed depends on the selected communications
mode (I
2
C, SPI, USART, etc.). The following chapters give more detailed explanation
of the Status window for the particular serial communications mode.
