We provide intuitive Windows® software so our logic analyzers are fast and easy to use. Our on-line HTML help web fully documents the hardware and software interface and includes video tutorials for almost every topic.
 

Configuring the GoLogic™

Setup Wizard
A Setup wizard is provided for inexperienced logic analyzer users. The Setup Wizard walks you through the basic steps for configuring the GoLogic™...

Of course, our Setup window also configures the GoLogic™ quickly and easily. Here are the three basic steps...

Step 1: Sampling modes
The sampling mode determines how the GoLogic™ captures trace data. We provide sampling methods to analyze almost any situation...

More on sampling modes...

Step 2: Channel groups
Channel groups tell the software which channels are connected to your input signals. This allows trigger patterns to be defined in the Setup window and the captured trace data to be displayed in the WaveForm and Numeric windows...

Step 3: Triggering
Capturing the problem is easy! Just select a predefined TriggerForm™ that meets your needs and fill in the blanks. If you have a complex triggering situation, our "custom" TriggerForm™ can be tailored to your exact needs...

Capturing data

Just click the toolbar's "Go" button to capture a trace...

After the GoLogic™ fills its onboard memory and stops running, the trace data is downloaded to the PC for analysis. We also provide advanced post-capture options such as automatically restarting the GoLogic, comparing each new trace with reference data, bookmarking search matches after each trace capture, or exporting the trace data to a text file for Excel or Mathcad processing.
 

Analyzing the data

WaveForm window
The WaveForm Window displays the trace data as timing diagrams or graphs. This window also provides mixed-signal analysis by displaying digital storage oscilloscope data alongside the GoLogic™ data.

Numeric window
The Numeric Window displays the captured data as columns of numbers. The values can be listed in hexadecimal, binary, octal, unsigned decimal integers, signed integers, signed 2's compliment, ASCII, and as symbols.

Plug-Ins (CAN, LIN, I2C, SPI, UART, FFT, Disassemblers, C/C++ Display, etc.)
Plug-Ins are software modules which customize the GoLogic™ software for specific tasks. You can create custom Plug-Ins using our PDK. However, we provide several free Plug-Ins such as CAN, LIN, I2C, SPI, UART (RS-232, RS-422, etc), bitstream, and FFT analysis. We also sell a separate C/C++ Display Plug-In package to display the original high-level source code associated with captured trace data. Finally, we sell separate 8051, Zx80, 680x0, and 80x86 disassembler Plug-Ins which convert each microprocessor's machine codes back to assembly language...
