Custom Protocol
 
Serial Bus types which have no protocol (I2C, SPI, UART, and Raw Bit-stream) allow a custom protocol to be defined. Click the Protocol List in the Serial Bus Definition area...
 
 
None
 
No protocol is used. The bus data values are displayed without any symbolic lookup tables.
 
Addr+Cmd+Count+Data+CRC
 
The first value in each packet is an address, the second value in each packet is a command, the third value is a packet size count, the forth through the next-to-last value are data, and the last value in each packet is a CRC.
 
The other protocol formats are variations of the above.
 
Packet Size
 
Select the number of data bytes per packet: Any or 1 - 10. The "Any" selection allows a varying packet size.
 
This Packet Size option is not supported with I2C because that bus type has a fixed packet size.
 
Otherwise, the "Any" option either uses the native packet framing (SPI with CS) or "break periods" between packets (UART, Raw Bit-stream) to define the packet boundaries.
 
The fixed 1 to 10 packet size value divides the serial bus data into even packets begginning at the trace data start.
 
Symbol Tables
 
Click the "Address Symbols", "Cmd Symbols", and "Data Symbols" buttons to select Symbol Tables for each protocol field.
