Spider DSA User’s Manual
171
A separate manual, Spider Black Box Mode Manual, describes Black Box mode in
detail; only a summary will be presented here.
Each time a test is run from a connected computer, all of the test configuration
data is uploaded to the internal memory of the front-end hardware. In normal
operations, the computer remains connected allowing you to control the test and
view the signals. However, all signal processing is performed by the front end
module and not by the computer. Recorded data is stored on the internal memory
of the front end. Black Box mode takes advantage of the fact that the computer is
not actually needed for the test.
To run in Black Box mode, first set up a test, in any mode, on the computer. The
test will run according to the items in the Run Schedule. Select the signals to be
recorded under the Measured Signals Setup tab.

Under Event Action Rules in the Test Configuration window, create two user
events: Start Recording Event and Stop Recording Event.
