Protocol Reference

Every protocol guide in this section follows the same layout:

1. Introduction. What the bus is, and the settings that matter most.
2. Decode & settings. Channel assignment, the decode parameters and their defaults, and how the result appears in the report.
3. Trigger & settings. The protocol-level trigger conditions.

A protocol with no Trigger & settings page cannot be triggered on: the analyzers do not currently support it.

Start here

• How decoding works: adding a decoder and assigning channels.
• How triggering works: Pre/Post/Delay trigger, Pass Count, and the Clause and Parallel Clause editors.
• Decode settings reference and Trigger settings reference: conventions shared by every protocol page.

Finding a protocol

• Browse protocols groups every protocol by category.
• Trigger support lists the protocols that have a Trigger & settings page.
• The Protocols menu in the sidebar has one entry per protocol.
