Programming the Logic Analyzer
You
can
program
the
logic analyzer over
the
Local Area Network
(LAN) by sending commands to
the
\system\programfile
or by
sending commands to
the
command
parser
socket.
This
chapter
shows you how to:
•
Set
up
for
Ethernet
programming.
•
Enter
commands directly using telnet.
• Copy commands to
\system\program.
• Write programs
that
open
\system\program.
• Write programs
that
open
the
command
parser
socket.
The logic analyzer does
not
provide real-time programming control.
Due
to
the
message handling protocol of
the
Ethernet
LAN,
messages
take varying, indeterminate amounts of time
to
reach
their
destinations. There can
be
no
guarantee
that
commands sent from
your computer will reach
the
logic analyzer
in
a timely way.
For
information on your logic analyzer's programming commands,
refer
to
the
appropriate Programmer's Guide.
The
\system
\program
File
Once
you
have accessed
the
logic analyzer's file system as
the
control
user,
you
can
send
programming commands by copying text strings
to
the
\system
\program
file. You can do this in
the
same way
that
any
text
string is copied to a file (for example,
by
re-directing
the
output
of
an
echo command, by copying a file, by writing a program
that
opens
the
file
and
outputs strings, etc.).
The
\system\programfile
provides a connection
to
the
logic
analyzer's command parser.
