Programming the Logic Analyzer
You can program the logic analyzer over the Local Area Network
(LAN) by sending commands to the
\system\program
file 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\program
file provides a connection to the logic
analyzer’s command parser.
