Multi-channel 802.15.4, ZigBee, RF4CE, 6LoWPAN
Protocol Analyzer |
The Peryton-M is a full-featured, multi-channel 802-15.4, ZigBee, RF4CE,
6LoWPAN protocol and network analysis tool. It is the only analyzer on the
market capable of capturing data from all 16 channels in the 2.4Ghz
Simultaneously. This is an essential tool for analyzing frequency
related features such as "active scan", multi-network
environment, device qualification, and more.
Using the Peryton-M analyzer, the user can get a quick
and complete picture of the RF environment and
activity of the network or networks, easily identify
erroneous or problematic messages, inspect message
contents down to the bit level, and easily share
scenarios of interest with colleagues, vendors,
or customers. |
| Data analysis is made simple with the following tools: |
|
|
Time View Window |
The Time View window provides a unique
two dimensional view of transmitted messages
in the network.
This is a time-line view that provides
easy understanding of transactions and other time related
processes. In a beacon network this view shows message
transmission times relative to the beacon gridline verifying
correct message timing. Messages can be sorted along the
vertical axis by device ID, network (PAN) ID, or channel. |

|
|
|
Message View Window
|
| The Message View window allows the user to dive into message fields down to the bit level. Fields content is shown
numerically and textually, with text and hints showing the field name, description, and meaning of the current value. Data is displayed in an intuitive graphical structure
allowing for the expansion or collapse of sub fields. These features greatly facilitate quick understanding,
eliminating the need to refer to off-line documentation. |
| |
|
|
Network View Window
|
| The Network View window
shows the network topology and elements. Each device is drawn according to its type
(e.g. coordinator, router, FFD) with hints showing all known information for the device. Links between devices and routes are clearly displayed. This view displays
information on devices received by the analyzer as well as other devices detected from indirect messages sent by other devices, such as routes, coordinator assignments, neighbor lists, tunneling, etc. |
|
| |
Search and Capture Tool |
 |
|
|
The Search and Capture Tool provides a picture of current RF activity by performing passive
channel noise measurements. Passive and active search is used to help locate 802.15.4 based
networks and devices, and then choose the channel for recording. |
| |
Featured Toolbox |
|
|
The Featured Toolbox provides even deeper analysis of captured data, including charts
summarizing properties of captured data, flexible data search tools, message compare utilities, and data export tools to allow further analysis with external tools such as Excel and Wireshark.
The full analyzer state including current view in each window, bookmarks, selected messages with their exact expanded fields, message zoom status, and more can be easily saved and
sent to other users for further inspection.
