1394
Analyzer Overview
The
VK9000 1394 Data Analyzer provides engineers with a powerful, out-of-box 1394
test and measurement solution. The full asynchronous and isochronous capturing
capabilities of the VK9000 make it an ideal measurement tool for 1394 protocol
analysis, traffic monitoring, and event identification. These robust resources
provide a complete solution for your entire 1394 product team and save system
integration and debugging time.
Analyze
your system utilizing a passive bus snooping technology, which allows the
VK9000 to listen to all bus activity without interfering with regular bus
traffic. Log every event (asynchronous and isochronous) into a buffer for
offline analysis. Set various trigger conditions to ensure the highest
flexibility in capturing specific events.
View
your 1394 system's architecture with a sophisticated Topology Map, which
reflects live cable insertion, CSR architecture information, and speed
mapping. Visualize serial data traffic in the Event List or in the Transaction
Viewer. Switch instantly from real-time capturing to offline data analysis as
you track and identify problems. Filter large data records for specific
characteristics and dependencies. Display bandwidth and packet contents.
Filter events and parse protocols like AV/C, HAVi, IP, and SBP-2 or your own
custom protocol. With the VK9000 generate 1394 packets or simultaneously
generate and capture 1394 bus traffic. View captured data remotely using the
VK9000's Data Viewer feature, which runs on any x86 PC platform.
Take
advantage of the flexible design, which supports several different mounting
options, and small footprint for optimal use in the laboratory or in the
field. This state-of-the-art modular analysis system solves today's problems
and provides enhancement flexibility for tomorrow's challenges.
THE
VK9000's TURNKEY SOLUTION
The
VK9000 provides a true turnkey 1394 development solution. Computer
configurations and system compatibilities are not an issue; simply connect the
VK9000 to your 1394 bus to begin testing and analysis. The benefits of a
Windows NT operating system and the intuitive user interface allows you to
easily operate the VK9000 even when setting complex trigger and filtering
sequences.
