12 Mixed-Signal
Operation
As a standard, the R&S®HMO1002 is equipped with the
connectors for the HO3508 logic probes to add 8 digital
logic inputs. All software required for the mixed signal
operationisalreadyincludedinthermwareofeachHMO.
It is only necessary to purchase and connect the active
HO3508 logic probes (8 channels). If you activate the POD,
analog channel 2 will be deactivated automatically. This

12.2 Display Functions for the Logic Channels
To switch on the digital channels, press the POD key in
the VERTICAL section. The digital channels 0 to 7 will now
display on the screen. For the series HMO3002, the logic
channels are activated by pressing the keys POD1 and
POD2 on the front panel. For the logic channels, a logic
One will be indicated by a bar that is two pixels wide, and
a logic Zero will be indicated by a bar that is one pixel

You can reset the position and size of the individual logic
channels on page 2|2 of the POD menu. You also have the
option to label the individual bits of the logic channel by
using the soft menu NAME. This name will be displayed
on the gridandtheprintout.Yourrstoptionistoswitch
the display on (ON) or off (OFF). The next option includes
the menu item LIBRARY. After selecting this option, you
can use the universal knob to choose a name from several
suggestions. The EDIT LABEL key allows you to enter

12.3 Display of Logic Channels as BUS
You also have the option to combine digital channels to
form buses which will then be displayed on the screen
as a cell in a table. Basically, two independent buses are
possible. For instance, it would be possible to combine an
8 bit address bus and an 8 bit data bus. To select the set-
tings for the buses, press the BUS button in he VERTICAL
section. Then press the MENU button in the VERTICAL
section. In the menu that opens you can press the top soft
menukeyBUStoselectwhichBUSyouwanttodene,B1
or B2.
You can use the soft menu key BUS TYPE to choose the
BUS type for the display and the analysis. The BUS type
determines the bus structure and is organized differently
depending on serial vs. parallel or the number of data
and clock signals. The universal knob allows you to se-
lect the BUS type PARALLEL or PARALLEL CLOCKED.
Select CONFIGURATION to determine the bus source
and structure. The contents of the menu change with the
selected BUS type. After pressing the top soft menu key
BUS WIDTH, you can use the universal knob to select
a bus width from 1-8 bits. The table displaying the bit
assignmentswillbeadjusteddynamicallydependingon
your choice. Each bit of the displayed bus has a source.
The source refers to the individual POD bits. Based on the
measurement setup, the sources can be assigned via soft
menu key SOURCE and the universal knob.
The soft menu keys PREVIOUS/NEXT BIT allow you to
move the position of the selection bar for the source of the
individual bits. The selected bit is highlighted in blue. The
