Using Serial Search and Navigation
Searching through a deep memory acquisition of serially decoded data can 
sometimes be a tedious process. But with InfiniiVision’s new Search and 
Navigate capability on the 7000B Series DSOs and MSOs, finding specific 
serial events is much easier now. In this lab we will first use a manual 
process for reviewing captured serial packets utilizing the serial decode 
“lister” display. We will then use the new automatic Search and Navigate 
capability that is available on this oscilloscope. Although the instructions for 
this lab are based on using the CAN serial bus demo signal, if your 
oscilloscope is not equipped with the CAN/LIN option, you can use one of 
the other serial bus signals and options that your oscilloscope may be 
equipped with. However, we suggest that you first become familiar with that 
particular serial bus by referencing one of the previous serial bus labs. You 
can verify the installed options on your oscilloscope at [Utility] > Service >

Setup
1 Connect the demo kit’s 40-pin ribbon cable from the back of the Agilent 
InfiniiVision Series oscilloscope to the 40-pin connector on the demo 
board.
2 Connect channel 1 probe to the CH1 test point and ground (GND).
3 Connect channel 2 probe to the CH2 test point and ground (GND).
4 Set the rotary switch on the demo board for the “CAN” signal (Mode #8).
5 Press [Default Setup].
6 Set the channel 1 vertical scale to 
500 mV/div and the vertical offset to 
1.0 V.
7 Push the Trigger Level knob to set the 
trigger level at 50%.
8 Press [Serial]; then, select the CAN 
decode mode.
9 Press Settings.
10 Press Baud; then, select 125 kb/s.
