becomes valid, the analyzer samples 
data from the system under test. 
Since the analyzer is clocked by the 
system, state measurements are 
synchronous with the test system. 
store qualification Store 
qualification is only available in a 
state measurement, not timing 
measurements. Store qualification 
allows you to specify the type of 
information (all samples, no samples, 
or selected states) to be stored in 
memory. Use store qualification to 
prevent memory from being filled 
with unwanted activity such as no-
ops or wait-loops. To set up store 
qualification, use the While storing 
field in a logic analyzer trigger 
sequence dialog.
subnet mask A subnet mask blocks 
out part of an IP address so that the 
networking software can determine 
whether the destination host is on a 
local or remote network. It is usually 
represented as decimal numbers 
separated by periods; for example, 
255.255.255.0. Ask your LAN 
administrator if you need a the 
subnet mask for your network.
symbols Symbols represent 
patterns and ranges of values found 
on labeled sets of bits. Two kinds of 
symbols are available: 
• Object file symbols - Symbols 
from your source code, and 
symbols generated by your 
compiler. Object file symbols may 
represent global variables, 
functions, labels, and source line 
numbers. 
• User-defined symbols - Symbols 
you create. 
Symbols can be used as pattern and 
range terms for: 
• Searches in the listing display.
• Triggering in logic analyzers and 
in the source correlation trigger 
setup.
• Qualifying data in the filter tool 
and system performance analysis 
tool set. 
system administrator The system 
administrator is a person who 
manages your system, taking care of 
such tasks as adding peripheral 
devices, adding new users, and doing 
system backup. In general, the 
system administrator is the person 
you go to with questions about 
implementing your software.
target system The system under 
test, which contains the 
microprocessor you are probing.
terms Terms are variables that can
