-===== Introduction ===== 
-This guide explains the use of the //Protocol// instrument in WaveForms. This instrument is used to send, receive, and spy on transactions in a variety of different digital communication protocols. 
----- 
-===== Prerequisites ===== 
-  * A Digilent Test & Measurement Device with Digital Input/Output Channels 
-  * A Computer with WaveForms Software Installed 
- 
-==== 1. Opening the Protocol Analyzer ====

- 
-=== 1.1 === 
-Plug in the Test & Measurement Device, then start WaveForms and make sure the device is connected. 
- 
-If no device is connected to the host computer when WaveForms launches, the **Device Manager** will be launched. Make sure that the device is plugged in and turned on, at which point it will appear in the Device Manager's device list (1). Click on the device in the list to select it, then click the Select button (2) to close the Device Manager. 
- 
-**Note:** //"DEMO" devices are also listed, which allow the user to use WaveForms and create projects without a physical device.// 
- 
-**Note:** //The Device Manager can be opened by clicking on the "Connected Device" button in the bottom right corner of the screen (3), or by selecting "Device Manager" from the "Settings" menu at the top of the screen.//

-==== 2. Using the Protocol Analyzer ==== 
- 
-//The //Protocol Analyzer// can be used to spy on protocol communications to validate data flow. It may also be used to drive protocol communication to verify peripheral functionality. This section explains how to spy and then drive communication.//

- 
-=== 2.1 Hardware Setup === 
- 
-To demonstrate the capabilities of the //Protocol Analyzer// instrument, this guide uses a [[:reference:pmod:pmodad5:|PmodAD5]] and an Arduino UNO to spy on the SPI communications taking place between the host and peripheral. Afterwards, the Test and Measurement device will be used as the SPI master to drive communications with the PmodAD5. 
- 
-First, connect the Arduino's pin 10 to the AD5's pin 1, the Arduino's pin 11 to the AD5's pin 2, the Arduino's pin 12 to the AD5's pin 3, the Arduino's pin 13 to the AD5's pin 4, Arduino's GND to the AD5's pin 5 and finally Arduino's 5V to the AD5's pin 6. 
- 
-Next, connect the Test & Measurement device's digital input/output (DIO) channel 0 pin to the chip select (pin 1) of the AD5, the DIO channel 1 pin to the AD5's clock (pin 4), the DIO channel 2 pin to the AD5's MOSI (pin 2) and finally the DIO channel 3 pin to the AD5's MISO (pin 3).

-=== 2.2 Arduino Setup === 
- 
-Click Sketch>Include Library>Manage Libraries. In the filter type AD7193 and install the library by Anne Mahaffey. Once the download has finished, close the Library Manager window, then click File>Examples>AD7193>AD7193_VoltageMeasure_Example. Click Upload to program the Arduino with the example sketch.

-=== 2.3 Protocol Spying === 
- 
-Click Receive to begin spying on the data transmission between the Arduino and PmodAD5. The capture panel will start populating with data sent between the Arduino and the PmodAD5. Each line beginning with "Data:" represents a stream of data from when chip select goes low to when it goes back high. Each 8 bit packet is separated by a comma, with the MOSI and MISO data printed respectively, separated by a "|".

-=== 2.4 Logic Analyzer === 
- 
-The //Logic Analyzer// can be used alongside the //Protocol Analyzer// to visualize the data. In the //Protocol Analyzer// click the Logic Analyzer button in the top right corner, which opens the //Logic Analyzer// instrument. Click the Docking Windows button, further up in the top right corner, to split the screen between the //Protocol Analyzer// and //Logic Analyzer//. 
- 
-Click the "Simple" button to set a simple trigger, and then Select>Fall.  
- 
-Note: The //Protocol Analyzer// can't be used for spying if the //Logic Analyzer// is enabled. 
- 
-Close the //Logic Analyzer// by clicking the x in the top right corner.
