■ Connection
Sets the remote connection
“Connection Method”
“USB”
Connect via USB port.
(Select the serial number of analyzer which you wish to connect.)
“LAN/Wi-Fi(TCP/IP)”
Input the IP address (or host name) of analyzer to “host name”, and the port number of
analyzer to “data port”.

-8-
■Model selection
Sets your analyzer settings. Mainly, it is used at the time of oine. However in the case of that there is
information which is not received by remote communication at the time of online, it is used as it is set.
In addition. if the information is received by remote communication, these settings are automatically
changed.
“Analyzer model”
Selects the model name of the target analyzer.
“Expansion board”
The expansion board which is equipped with the analyzer is displayed.

■Remote monitor
Sets the remote monitor
“A folder to save the remote monitor data”
This folder is to save data received by your analyzer for the remote monitor function.
To change the setting, click “Change” button. Then the window to select a folder appears. Select
the proper folder and click “OK” button. The le name of saving data is started from “00000000.
DT” in numerical order.
* Recommends to specify an exclusive folder.
* Specify a drive which has enough capacity.
(When it does not have enough capacity, the PC may not operate correctly.)
“Block size”
Sets the data capacity per le. You can select from “1M Byte”,
“2M Byte”, “4M Byte”, “8M Byte”, “16M Byte”, “32M Byte”, “64M Byte”, or
“128M Byte”.
“Maximum block count”
Sets the maximum block count of a le to save.
You can set from 2 to 2048. When the number of
the data le is over this setting, the data le with
a small number le is deleted.
“Full stop”
If the stored les reach to the maximum block count, measurement will automatically stop.
When unchecked, a ring buer of the size obtained by multiplying the block size by the maximum
number of blocks is congured and continuous measurement is performed.

-10-
“Append mode”
When measurement starts, a newly-created le is saved in the order after the existing les. If the
numbers of the whole data les are over the maximum block count setting, a data le with a small
number le (includes data les which were saved on the former measurement) is deleted even in
the append mode.
“Change le by elapsed time”
Create a new data le when the specied time has been elapsed, even if the size of the former
data le has not reached the specied Block size. However, if the data le under recording has
not recorded any data, the new data le will not be created.
“Warning display”
You will be warned if there is a data le in the les to save when starting measurement.
■”Key emulation”
Sets the key emulation.
“A folder to save the screen capture data”
A folder to save a screen image when you save it on the key emulation screen. Click “Change”
button and the folder selecting window appears. Select the folder and click “OK”.

-14-
Start Measurement
Click on the toolbar of the data window (or click “Run measurement” of the measurement menu) to
measure. After measurement starts, “Measuring” is displayed on the state display part, and data received
from your analyzer is displayed. You can change the character size (click ), the character code, the
display in hexadecimal (click ), and the pause while measuring (click ).
Stop Measurement
To stop measurement, click on the toolbar of the data window (or click “Stop measurement” of the
measurement menu.) After stopping measurement, you can scroll data. Data is automatically saved in the
folder you specied on the remote setting. To save with another name, click (or click “Save data le”

At the time of stopping measurement, the last le is displayed. To display all les, click (or click “Open
data le” of the le menu) and select the le to display.
Max speed when remote monitoring
Max speed which analyzer can measure is depending on the connection to the PC. Refer to the following
standard speed.
USB (USB3.0/3.1) : Max. 5Mbps
LAN : Max. 2Mbps*1
Wi-Fi : Max. 1Mbps*1
*1 The max. measurement speed becomes lower by the network load. However, when measuring 10Mbps
with 2K byte data for every 0.02 seconds, the actual communication speed is about 1Mbps, and you can
measure this communication without any data loss.
■It will cause the data loss if the actual communication speed is more than
the max. speed. And PC will stop the action until the analyzer process all
measured data to the PC.
■When the measured data is lacked, will displayed on the window.
■Key emulation mode will decrease the max. speed.
