Note If two multi-pod state analyzers are on, the qualifier pop-up menu will
show that only four pattern recognizers are available to each analyzer.
Pattern recognizers a-d and the range recognizer go with the first analyzer
created, and pattern recognizers e-h go with the second analyzer. In the
Full Qualifier Specification pop-up, there will be only one OR gate and
one set of pattern recognizers.
With this Full Qualifier Specification pop-up, you specify a logical
combination of patterns or a range as the qualifier. The pattern recognizers
are always partitioned into the groups of four as shown. Only one
operator is allowed between the patterns in a group. Patterns in
uncomplemented form (a, b, etc.) can only be ORed. The complements of
patterns (≠ a, ≠ b, etc.) can only be ANDed. For example, if the first OR
field (gate) is changed to AND, all the patterns for that gate are
complemented, as shown below.
To specify a pattern to be used in the combination, touch the pattern
recognizer field. The field toggles from Off to On and a connection is
drawn from the pattern field to the gate. In figure 5-51, patterns b, c and d
and the range are ORed together, and ≠ eand≠ g are ANDed together.
