Protocol Analyzer Manual

The protocol Analyzer Tool is intended to help analyzing and decoding slow pulse based protocols such as IR-remote protocols and RF lamp switch protocols. The Analyzer has protocol decoders for a number of standard protocols and can decode the parameters from them. It can also help analyzing the signals of unknown protocols and help in building decoders for new protocols.

Main Window

Below is the main window of the Protocol Analyzer:

1	Tool Bar
2	Received signal list. Received samples and decoded messages are presented here. The Time column is the time the message was received. Protocol column specifies the name of the protocol of the received message. Command and Address columns refer to the protocol content. Repeat column specifies if the number of times the message has been repeated
3	A decoded protocol message of the JVC-protocol. Note that the JVC decoder must be active to receive this protocol. Double click this line to see details of the received message.
4	A raw sample. This actually refers to the same message as above, but is the undecoded signal. Note that the Raw-decoder must be active and view→Raw must be active to view this. Double click on these line to see the actual signal
5	Source indicator. A microphone when Audio is chosen and a USB-stick when CUL is selected
6	Scanning status. Scanning or Paused. Scanning may be paused with the Stop Scanning-button or because of problems opening the scanning device
7	Signal level. This is only valid for audio scanning. The bar should reach the green part on the left of the scale when a signal is received
