Tektronix Installed Option; Synchronous Data Link Control protocol decode and search
The Tektronix 6-SRSDLC is an installed software option for the 6 Series MSO Mixed Signal Oscilloscopes, enabling protocol decode and search capabilities for the Synchronous Data Link Control (SDLC) protocol. This option allows users to trigger on, decode, and search SDLC protocol traffic, providing detailed visibility into serial communication for debugging and analysis. The decoded data is displayed directly on the oscilloscope waveform, with color-coded fields and time-correlated to analog and digital signals. The 6-SRSDLC option enhances productivity by simplifying the process of identifying protocol errors and timing issues, and supports advanced search and mark features to quickly locate specific protocol events within long data captures. This option is designed for engineers working with SDLC-based communication systems and is fully integrated into the Tektronix 6 Series MSO user interface.
