5.2 Enabling Data Streaming

Data streaming requests are initiated directly from the PC to the target MCU. To start the data streaming, click the switch corresponding to the input channel that is wanting to be viewed. To switch the specific variable that is being streamed, click the drop-down menu and select the desired streaming variable from the list.

Enabling Data Streaming Figure 5-6 Enabling Data Streaming

Signal Sight features menu actions for starting and stopping the data stream. To quickly enable all four channels on the plot, click Oscilloscope → Enable All Channels. This automatically set the trigger mode to auto to enable continuous streaming. To disable data streaming, click Oscilloscope → Disable All Channels.

Trigger Settings Figure 5-7 Trigger Settings

Like a physical scope, the virtual oscilloscope plot is level-triggered. That means that data is not displayed on the plot until the incoming data points intersect with the scope's trigger level. In the trigger settings, the user can configure the trigger settings, such as the trigger level, the channel being triggered, and the trigger edge (either rising or falling).

There are also various trigger modes available. The top switch controls the trigger repetition and the bottom switch controls the arming of the trigger. If the top switch is in the off position (to the left), then the scope trigger is in manual single-arm mode. This mode is intended for capturing single plots of data. Once the bottom switch is turned on (to the right), the scope trigger looks for the edge on the incoming data stream. When the edge is seen, the scope display starts plotting the incoming data. Once the plot is completely filled with data, the bottom switch automatically switches off and the trigger is disabled.

If the top switch is in the on position (to the right), then the scope trigger is in continuous arm-mode. This mode is intended for running the scope continuously and viewing the data over extended periods of time. The scope trigger continuously samples the incoming data stream and plot onto the graph without needing to manually rearm the trigger. To disable this mode, simply toggle off the top switch.
