Siglent SDS5000HD-FlexRay license option
Unlocks the SDS5000HD-FlexRay option for FlexRay trigger and decode at 2.5, 5 or 10 Mbps. For the SDS5000X HD.
SDS5000HD-FlexRay — FlexRay trigger & decode
FlexRay trigger and decode at 2.5, 5 or 10 Mbps.
Supplied as a licence key issued against the instrument's serial number. There is no hardware to fit and nothing to return: the code is entered in the instrument's own menu and the function is available immediately, on the instrument you already own.
What this option does
What it does
Triggers on the transmission start sequence, a frame, a symbol or an error, and decodes FlexRay at 2.5, 5 or 10 Mbps or a custom rate, from the analogue channels or the SPL2016’s digital channels.
What you use it for
FlexRay’s value is timing determinism, so the useful question is usually whether a frame arrived when it should have — a question about time, which is what an oscilloscope answers.
In practice
A chassis-control node loses frames intermittently. Triggering on errors captures the event together with the differential waveform, so a physical-layer cause can be told apart from a scheduling one.
