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.
