Data areas |
The GoLogic software has two data areas: trace
and reference. Newly acquired data is always downloaded to the trace data
area. Once captured data is downloaded to the trace area, it can be saved to
a file or copied directly to the reference area...
|
|
|
|
Using trace and reference together |
As the name implies, reference data is compared
to the trace data. Differences between the two data areas are displayed in
the data windows. For example, the WaveForm window provides the "Logic-Op
Trace & Reference" feature and can create an XOR combination…
|
|
|
The WaveForm window also displays reference data
beneath the trace data so that differences are easily visible…
|
|
|
|
The dotted lines in the
above example represent the reference data beneath the trace data. The
difference between the two data captures is easily visible. |

Markers |
|
|
|
Marker pairs |
Three pairs of moveable markers are provided for
making timing measurements. Clicking the left mouse button moves the first marker in the pair.
Clicking the right mouse button moves the second marker in the pair. Each
marker can be moved anywhere on the open data.
|
|
Linked markers (WaveForm only) |
|
When the markers are linked in the WaveForm
window, clicking either mouse button moves both markers together at a fixed
distance apart. The fixed distance is set when the link-markers option is
enabled. All three marker pairs are linked at the same time.
Linked markers are useful when making
comparisons between edges. You should place the markers on edges which use a
known distance, link the markers, then click on other edges to verify the
distances are the same. |

|
|
Timing measurements |
|
The
WaveForm window displays the time between each marker pair above the
data area. |

|
|
| The
Numeric window displays the time between each marker pair left of the
data area. |
 |
|
|
Finally, PlugIns will show the time between the
marker pairs where possible...

Bookmarks |
|
The "Search > Add bookmark…" menu command and
the F4 key places a bookmark in the data. |
Bookmarks |
|
|
Each bookmark and its
comment are saved in the project files. Bookmarks allow notes to be
placed in the data for later review or shared with others.
Bookmarks can be placed
at any marker's location, and the data's start or end. Bookmark
commentary can be up to 65K characters long.
Bookmarks are useful
placeholders while analyzing the data. You can quickly scroll to a
bookmark by clicking on the yellow icons in the data scroll bars.
|
 |
|
|
|
|
 |
Hovering the mouse over a bookmark's icon displays the first few dozen
characters of the commentary for quick review… |
