6-4 Displaying Logged Waveforms with
the Mixed-Signal Tool
You may wish to use the Event Datalog capabilities for mixed-
signal tests. Event Datalogging can store captured, processed, as
well as computed waveforms in a file.
NOTE To log waveforms that are captured or calculated during a mixed-
signal test with Event Datalogging you must activate the test suite flag
L
OG MX WAVEFORMS and activate the corresponding checkboxes of the
Test Control window to define what data you want to be logged.
After loading a Datalog file, the data contained in that file can be
displayed.
How to Load a Datalog File
LOAD DATALOG opens a browser from which you can select a file.
Datalog File Selection
In this example, Datalog files are identified by the filename suffix
“.str”.
How to Select Waveforms from a Datalog File
Once you have loaded a Datalog file, you can click SELECT
W
AVEFORM to open that file and to choose the waveforms to be
displayed.
Select Waveform first checks the loaded file.
