Technical Specifications

for the Active-Pro Debugger and Logic Analyzer

  • Captures data on the new Active-Pro debug interface that sends debug data from your processor to our capture engine. It allows each processor to display debug text and graphed variables in real-time on multiple channels timestamped to nanosecond resolution.

    The debug data is synchronized with all other digital and analog inputs and busses, graphed in real time, and supports up to 4 separate processors simultaneously.
