Handling Error (DRF, or Data Related Flag) Events

The interpretation of error events depends on the type of communication line that the capture came from in the same way that signal change events do. Error events are encoded in a single byte. As of this printing, the encodings are:

ComProbe Driver
UART Overrun 0x01
Parity 0x02
Framing 0x04
CRC 0x08
Underrun 0x10

 

Asynchronous Serial Driver
UART Overrun0x01
Parity 0x02
Framing0x04

 

RS232 ComProbe II Driver
UART Overrun 0x01
Parity 0x02
Framing 0x04
Data Lost 0x08

 

As with signal changes, the only way to be sure that the encoding hasn't changed is to start the protocol analyzer, open the Set I/O Configuration window and click the Names button. The errors will be listed in this window in order, where the top item is the low bit.
