Connection Tips
Most performance problems such as input buffer overflow are the result of improper connections.
To achieve optimal performance from the USB analyzer, we recommend the following configuration:
- Use two high-speed computers, one for the Frontline analyzer and one for the device under test.
- Use USB 2.0 connections.
- Use cables that do not exceed the recommended maximum lengths (the cable connected to the analysis computer should not exceed 5 meters (15 feet), and the combined length of the cables connected to the test computer and the device under test should not exceed 3 meters (9 feet).
Although it is possible to use one computer as both the analysis and the test computer, this requires that the computer in use is high-speed and has two or more host controllers available.
If the operating system encounters an error when trying to install a Frontline device, simply disconnect the device, then reconnect it and try again.
