LE-8200

Supports TTL, I²C, SPI, IrDA, CAN ,LIN, FlexRay, LAN and USB

It works as a serial port monitor for RS-232C/422/485 with its standard measurement board.
By exchanging the measurement board, it also supports various types of protocols such as UART (of 1.8V/2.5V/3.3V/5V power supplies TTL level), I²C, SPI, CAN (widely used for automotive vehicle-bus), LIN, FlexRay, LAN (Ethernet, which is recently used for Internet of Things (IoT)), USB2.0 (now used for standard port of smart phones).

Simply pull out the interface board from the measurement unit and replace it with an expansion board for another protocol.		OP-SB89G	OP-SB84

5.7-inch Large-sized Color TFT LCD

The large-sized LCD is an easy-to-understand color display showing a flow of communications protocol and data transmitted or received, thus greatly improving the efficiency of measurement data analysis.
Furthermore, the display of an English or Japanese guide accurately supports high-level measurement over communications.

The monitor function exactly records and visualizes communications data

The line monitor function, like a sniffer, allows the recording of telegrams and provides an easy-to-understand large-sized display without affecting the communications lines.
This function makes it possible to grasp the conditions of transmission and reception, thus greatly shortening the required time of troubleshooting.
As a standard feature, the LE-8200 supports a variety of communications standards, such as binary synchronous communications (BSC) for character-synchronous transmission, and high-level data link control (HDLC) for bit-synchronous transmission as well as asynchronous communications that are widely used for PC peripheral and microcontroller applications.
By adding an optional expansion kit, the LE-8200 will support many more communications standards.

Support Modbus protocol and PROFIBUS protocol for field bus

Modbus

< Example of usage of analyzer for Modbus communication >
Diverge Modbus communication on RS-485 line and measure by the analyzer.

It can detect 3.5 character time of idle state as frame gap and separate message frames properly even in the high-speed Modbus communication. Support Modbus-ASCII and Modbus-RTU telegram structure. It automatically starts the LRC/CRC frame check according to the data format, and know the errors and error triggers. HEX display and also translation display of address and function are available.	< Modbus configuration >
< Modbus in HEX >	< Modbus in Translation display >

PROFIBUS

It supports monitoring and simulation of PROFIBUS which is widely used for industrial fieldbus (with the firmware Ver1.18 or later). Setting the protocol to PROFIBUS, with the communication condition which follows the standard of PROFIBUS, it judges the FCS of PROFIBUS standard (which varies depending on the data format) by detecting idle time of 33 bit or more and separating PROFIBUS communication frames. You can also observe the flow of the communication by PROFIBUS translation display or dump display in addition to the normal monitoring display. Note: The communication speed defined in PROFIBUS standard is 9600bps to 12Mbps, however the standard firmware of LE-8200(A) supports up to 4Mbps. To monitor faster communication such as 6Mbps or 12Mbps, OP-FW12GA (to be released in Jan. 2015) is needed.

High-precision Time Stamp Recorded at 1-μs Intervals [New Function]

The time stamp shows the transmission or reception time of the head data of each communications frame. In addition to the Hr/Min/Sec time stamp, the LE-8200 incorporates Year/Mon/Hr/Min/Sec time stamp. Also, there is a high-precision time stamp that records the elapsed time of transmission or reception at minimal 1-μs intervals from the start of measurement.

This function has widened the range of applications from the narrowing down of data on a specified time-and-date basis and delicate timing basis. In addition, it is possible to judge each frame in asynchronous communications by specifying an idle time of 1 to 100 ms or frame end data.

[ Elapsed Time Stamp ]

Idle time display is ideal for checking the response time and timeout of transmission or reception a a glance.

Long Recording Time Allowing Rolling back to Points of Communications Failures

Supporting Logic Analyzer Analysis and Analog Waveform Analysis [New Function]

The logic analyzer, which digitally displays the waveforms of communications line timing, operates at
a sampling rate up to as high as 100 MHz. Furthermore, this feature realizes the simultaneous display
of 12 lines by making use of the large-sized screen.
Besides, the adoption of function keys ensures the operation of the time cursor with ease.
Furthermore, if the OP-SB85L optional expansion kit is used, measurement of analog voltage waveforms at a maximum rate of 40M samples per second will be possible.
Therefore, you will be able to realize detailed waveform observation without carrying a heavy general-purpose measuring instrument when you are on a business trip.
These functions help to identify hardware problems.
You can also use it for educational purposes, comparing documents for communications protocol.

Trigger Function with Detection Capability Reinforced Twice [Functional Enhancement]

Trigger 4

Trigger 5

The trigger function controls the operation of measurement when the function detects specific communications status.
Conventional models have four combinations of trigger conditions and trigger actions.
On the other hand, the LE-8200 is provided with eight combinations for ease of making settings that are more flexible.
This function not only enables the detection of eight types of conditions simultaneously but also makes it possible to detect particular conditions in sequence.
Complicated communications events can be precisely grasped.

Simulation function provides the actual operating environments

[Example of connection for simulation]

With the simulation feature, LINEEYE protocol analyzers act as the counterpart to the target device and perform transmission and reception tests according to protocol.
Even in the early stages of development when matching devices are not available, it provides six types of simulation modes.
Error handling process can be checked by sending data with parity errors. Margins can be evaluated by intentionally shifting communications speed.
For example, test the 9600bps target device at 9840bps speed. In addition, data transmission can be linked with the changes in the signal lines, and an automatic control of RS-485 transmission driver IC is supported.

Furthermore, it offers half-duplex simulation mode, which will be useful for communication test of half-duplex RS-485. For example, when a communication test uses only SD line, it can sort the sending data of the analyzer to SD line and the receiving data from the opposite device to RD line. This allows you to execute communication tests which use trigger function or instruction of program mode.
