Bus Doctor™
With its modularity, portability, deep trace buffers, versatile
configurability, and feature-rich software, the Bus Doctor™ Rx is the
world's most powerful protocol analyzer. The Rx is compatible with all
Bus Doctor protocol analyzer bus pods, the industry's largest selection.
Rx Protocol Analyzer Stacking
You may stack Rx protocol analyzers together to synchronize
trace-taking. When stacked, you can configure the Rx analyzer to
capture and analyze traffic from multiple buses of the same type or you
may use a mix of different protocol analyzer bus pods. This
unprecedented power allows you to use several Rx protocol analyzers in
different labs at one moment, each working on different projects. The
next moment you can put them together to capture bus traffic of
multi-protocol complex systems. When stacked, the Bus Doctor Rx
protocol analyzers share a common reference clock and can trigger
across buses.
The
Bus Doctor software for the Rx has all the display options,
functionality, and analysis tools of the other Bus Doctor analyzer
models. You may see the details of each bus under test. In addition,
the Multi-Analyzer display shows you the Command Listing summary and
State Listing displays for all the buses with which you are working in
an interleaved, color-coded displayed sorted by the common time stamp.
A
double-click in any of the individual Command, State, Histogram, or
Waveform displays or in the Multi-Analyzer Display will synchronize the
displays for all the bus displays to the same point in time. The Rx
gives you the ability to simultaneously capture traffic from different
storage, networking and backplane buses.
Rx Protocol Analyzer Configurations
The Rx protocol analyzer is compatible with Bus Doctor protocol
analyzer bus pods. The Rx is available in three models: a 36, 108 and
252 memory channel model. In addition, each model is available in three
configurations: Slim, Fit, and Buff. These configurations offer very
large trace buffers of 16, 64 and 256 million events respectively (up
to 9.2GB of dedicated high-speed memory for a Rx-252-Buff).
All the Rx models ship with a USB 2.0 port and cable for connection to a host computer. The power supply is auto-switching.
Each Bus Doctor analyzer offers the following features:
Modular Design
Each Bus Doctor is designed to work with multiple buses. By connecting
a Bus Doctor bus pod to the analyzer, you configure the system to be a
dedicated protocol analyzer for that bus. This means that you can use a
single analyzer with many different buses. It also means that you only
need to use one common user interface and tool-set to work with many
different buses.
The industry's most powerful triggering
The Bus Doctor software application provides you with high-level
dialogs that allow you to create very powerful triggers within moments
by selecting options from pull-down lists and other click-able
selections. You may also create custom triggers by using our 12 level
trigger sequencer. For each level of the sequencer you may select from
high level options or down to signal-level detail. The sequencer
includes 2 timer and 2 counter levels.
Deep Trace Buffers
Bus Doctor analyzers can capture up to 256 million events in their
dedicated trace buffers. You may partition the buffer into segments to
work with multiple traces in the buffer at the same time.
SAS/SATA Expert Analysis
Automatically identify SAS/SATA protocol violations, interoperability problems, performance issues, and errant behaviors.
Hardware Assisted Search Hardware search logic makes it possible to
search the entire 4.6 GB of memory for any pattern in 1 second or less.
It is the only SATA analyzer with this feature.
Logic Analysis Provides logic analysis in addition to
protocol analysis; these two critical functions in one compact unit
save both valuable desktop space and money.
Bus Specialization
The Bus Doctor's advanced core technology tailors the software and
hardware to whichever bus pod is attached to provide you with the
display, decode, filtering, triggering, and analysis tools necessary
for the specific protocol.
