13.25.5.3 Searching 8b/10b data
Prerequisite: A serial bus is configured for the 8b/10b signal to be decoded and ana-
lyzed.
The search for events is set up in the following way:
1. Press the [Bus] key and selet the "Shortcuts" tab.
2. Tap "Setup search".
3. If the dialog box does not contain a search entry, tap the "Add" icon to create one,
as described in "To create a user-defined search" on page 434.
4. Tap "Source" and select the serial bus that is set to 8b/10b (e.g. "SB1", unless
already selected).
The search dialog for 8b/10b protocol analysis is opened.
There are no additional search criteria to be specified.
5. Tap "Source" and select the serial bus that is set to 8b/10b (e.g. "SB1", unless
already selected).
6. Specify search criteria according to Chapter 13.25.5.1, "8b/10b search setup",
on page 931.
7. To acquire a waveform, press [Single].
The R&S RTO6 performs a 8b/10b decode according to the thresholds and proto-
col settings of the associated serial bus source (here in our example SB1).
8. To start searching the acquired waveform for specific events, tap "Enable" in the
search setup dialog:
The R&S RTO6 displays the "Search Results" box that lists the detected events.
For information on how to configure the search results presentation and how to navi-
gate the search results, see also "To display search zoom windows" on page 442.
13.26 PCIe (option R&S RTO6-K72)
R&S RTO6-K590 is a firmware option that enables the R&S RTO6 to analyze Periph-
eral Component Interconnect Express (PCIe) signals encoded by the PCIe standard,
generation 1 and 2.
For analysis, PCIe encoded signals can be triggered, decoded and searched.
