Note:  
  Use the Trigger Level knob to adjust the  thresholds of bus trigger and bus 
decoding. 
  When the ACK (ACKnowledge Character) is not met, two red error marks will be 
displayed in the corresponding position in the waveform.

3.  SPI Decoding 
To decode SPI signal: 
(1) Connect the clock line (SCLK) and the data line (SDA) of the SPI signal to the 
Signal Input Channels of the oscilloscope. 
(2) Adjust to the proper time base and voltage division. 
(3) In  trigger menu, select Bus trigger, and select bus type as SPI, set parameters 
based on the characteristics of the signal, trigger the signal correctly and obtain 
stable display. Refer to "SPI Trigger" on page 50. 
(4) Push the Decode button on the front panel. Select bus type as SPI. set parameters 
based on the characteristics of the signal. When the parameters are set correctly, 
the information carried by the signal will be displayed.  
Tip: If there are repetitive menu items in both trigger menu and decoding menu, you 
can set anyone of them, the other will be changed synchronously.  
Note:  
  Use the Trigger Level knob to adjust the  thresholds of bus trigger and bus 
decoding. 
  LS First in Bit Order menu item (Least Significant Bit First) means that the least 
significant bit will arrive first: hence e.g. the hexadecimal number 0x12, will 
arrive as the sequence 01001000 in binary representation, will be decoded as the 
reversed sequence 00010010.
