it for you! Once you’ve set up a bus, the MSO/DPO4000C
Series will decode each packet on the bus, and display the
value in hex, binary, decimal (USB, Ethernet, MIL-
STD-1553, LIN, and FlexRay only), signed decimal (I2S/LJ/RJ/
TDM only), or ASCII (USB, Ethernet, and RS-232/422/485/
UART only) in the bus waveform.
Event Table
In addition to seeing decoded packet data on the bus wave-
form itself, you can view all captured packets in a tabular view
much like you would see in a software listing. Packets are
time stamped and listed consecutively with columns for each
component (Address, Data, etc.). You can save the event table
data in .csv format.

packet in a long acquisition.
Search (Serial Triggering)
Serial triggering is very useful for isolating the event of
interest, but once you’ve captured it and need to analyze the
surrounding data, what do you do? In the past, users had to
manually scroll through the waveform counting and converting
bits and looking for what caused the event. You can have the
oscilloscope automatically search through the acquired data
for user-defined criteria including serial packet content. Each
occurrence is highlighted by a search mark. Rapid navigation
between marks is as simple as pressing the Previous (←) and
Next (→) buttons on the front panel.
