Chapter 11 Protocol Decoding 
You can use the protocol analysis to discover errors, debug hardware, and accelerate 
development easily, ensuring you to accomplish the projects with high speed and 
good quality. Protocol decoding is the basis of protocol analysis. Only protocol 
analyses with correct protocol decoding are acceptable, and only correct protocol 
decoding can identify more error information. MSO7000/DS7000 provides four bus 
decoding modules (Decode 1, Decode 2, Decode 3, and Decode 4) to make common 
protocol decoding (including Parallel (standard), RS232 (option), I2C (option), SPI 
(option), LIN (option), CAN (option), FlexRay (option), I2S (option), and 1553B 
(option)) for the input signals of the analog channels (CH1-CH4) and digital channels 
(D0-D15). As the decoding functions and setting methods of Decode1, Decode2, 
Decode3, and Decode4 are the same, this chapter takes Decode1 as an example for 
illustration. 
Press Decode on the front panel to open the decode setting menu, or enable the 
touch screen and then tap the function navigation icon    at the lower-left corner 
of the screen to open the function navigation. Then, tap the "Decode" icon to open 
the decode setting menu. 
To get the decoding option information, refer to descriptions in "Appendix A: 
Accessories and Options". 
If you have purchased the decoding option, activate it according the descriptions in 
"To View the Option Information and the Option Installation".
