ARINC 429 and MIL-STD-1553 Protocol Triggering and Decode
For Infiniium Series Oscilloscopes
Easily Debug and Test Designs That Include ARINC 429 and MIL-STD-1553 Protocols Using an Infiniium Oscilloscope
The ARINC 429 bus and the MIL-STD-1553 bus are serial buses used in both commercial and military equipment. While primarily used in avionics, these buses are also found in ground vehicles, weapons systems and other equipment. Because of their importance in both industry and defense, error free operation of both the ARINC 429 bus and the MIL-STD-1553 bus is crucial. Without intelligent oscilloscope serial bus protocol triggering and decode, it can be difficult to debug these buses and validate signal integrity. Traditional methods of debugging serial buses include manual bit counting, which is not only tedious, but prone to critical errors.
Easily debug and test these serial buses through the ARINC 429 and MIL-STD-1553 Protocol Triggering and Decode for Infiniium Oscilloscopes. This application provides an easy to use interface, a breadth of protocol decode options to suit your specific needs, pattern and error search options to find errors faster, and much more.
ARINC 429 and MIL-STD-1553 Setup, Protocol Triggering, and Search Capabilities
Get access to a rich set of integrated protocol level triggers. The application includes a suite of configurable protocol level trigger conditions specific to these serial buses. When serial triggering is selected, the application enables special real-time triggering hardware inside the scope. Hardware-based triggering ensures the oscilloscope never misses a trigger event when armed. Hardware-based triggering is available only on Infiniium S-Series oscilloscopes; other Infiniium Series oscilloscopes support software-based triggering. Specific to these buses is support for dual threshold triggering. Without support for ARINC 429 and MIL-STD-1553 specific triggering, an oscilloscope set to standard edge triggering would not provide differentiation between transmitted and received packets, resulting in an inaccurate decode.
ARINC 429 and MIL-STD-1553 Protocol Decode
Use an intuitive user interface to read and interpret your results without hassle. Analyze both the waveform and glance through a table of packets in the standard split-screen view or use the full screen to view either the waveform in greater detail or the lister to scroll through the data. Engineers deal with complicated problems all day—using Keysight protocol decode software is not one of them.
Spend Less Time Searching and More Time Finding
Easily find errors or specific packets through the pattern search menu. This feature allows you to trigger on a specific search entry or stop when a specific search entry is reached. Customize this feature to trigger on a specific error, any error, or a specific packet data value.c
