A Logic Analyzer has an intuitive and informative analog presentation of
signal activity and threshold settings formed by gathering a collection
of factors pertaining to the measurement to be performed, such as
information about which channels are members of labeled collections. A
scan of signal activity is performed for each assigned channel as its
threshold is briefly swept. This produces a range of voltage that
describes that signal's signal activity. For each Probe Pod these ranges
are then displayed in columns as adjacent vertical segments of a voltage
swing Y axis along a channels-within-a-probe-pod X axis. The Y axis is
labeled with actual voltage values. Superimposed upon this analog style
display is a horizontal line indicating the associated threshold for that
Probe Pod. Further annotations include channel identifiers and signal
activity indicators whose shapes connote recurring transitions and
signals that appear to be `stuck` either HIGH or LOW. Collections of
related columns are labeled according to the Probe Pod with which they
are associated.
