This example of an Event Table is from an
RS-232 bus.
RS-232 event t
ables display one line for each
7- or 8-bit byte when Packets are set to Off.
RS-232 event tables display one line for each
packet when P
ackets are set to On.
Other buses display one word, frame, or
packet per row, depending on the bus type.
9. Push B1 or B2 and turn Multipurpose a
to move the bus display up o r down on the
screen.
(See page 80, Event Table .)
