+====== Signal Analysis ======
+The Protocol Analyzer can be used to analyze the raw data signals to help understand new protocols and write new decoders. This can also be used to tune the volume of the audio device to optimize reception.
+===== Undecoded Window =====
 The undecoded window is the heart of the analyzer. Here you can see the raw undecoded signal and analyze the pulses. The Windows is opened by double clicking on a raw message line\\

 ===== Pulse Length Distribution View =====
+The sampled signal can also be presented in a "pulse length plane", meaning that instead of presenting the pulses in a time line, we present the number of pulses of a certain length. The graph groups the pulses in 10 microsecond intervals. So if there for example were 24 pulses with lengths between 540 and 550 microseconds, there will be a 24 units high bar there. This give a very good view of how much the pulse lengths vary and helps specifying time limits in decoders.\\

+When a pulse group is selected in the pulse group window, the corresponding pulse length area is marked with green in the graph.
+Note that this sample is made with the audio sampler. This uses a sample frequency of 44.1 KHz giving a pulse length resolution of 23 micro seconds. This is why the bars in the diagram are separated.
+You can zoom in and out on this graph in the same way as on the Signal view.
+===== Reanalyze Signal =====
+In the signal graph you can see if the flank detector has been able to recreate the digital pulse correctly. If not, you have to adjust the flank detector settings in [[analyzer:manual:settings|the settings window]]. When you have modified the settings, you can re-analyze the same raw signal again by right-clicking on the raw sample in the main window and selecting "Reanalyze signal data":\\
+{{:analyzer:manual:raw_context.png| raw signal context menu}}\\
+\\
+ This will generate a new raw signal entry as if the signal was received again, but using the new flank detector settings.
