This tool is able to : +.PP +\- Automatically check the Boundary\-scan device for Instruction register length, Bypass register length and Boundary\-scan register length, +.PP +\- Execute Boundary\-scan patterns directly to the device, +.PP +\- Translate functionnal patterns to Boundary\-scan patterns using an ASCII description of the device Boundary\-scan architecture for the specific emulbs31 card. +.PP + + +To use this tool, you don't need to have a particular knowledge of Boundary-scan architecture. +The lpscan driver should be installed if you want to use the parallel port. + +.PP +If it cannot communicate with the device, \f4pcbs\fP will output an error message +like : +.PP +.nf +Cannot check INSTRUCTION Register (longer than xxxx bits ???) +Check the card connection +.fi + + + +.SH DEFINITION +.PP +We call "\f4Boundary\-scan patterns\fP" patterns written for a device with Boundary\-scan architecture using only the Test Acess Port interface (i.e TDI, TDO, TMS, TCK and eventually TRST). +.br +We call "\f4Functionnal patterns\fP" patterns written for a device with Boundary\- +scan architecture, but using the fonctionnal interface of the device or for a chip branched with the specific EMULBS31 card which emulated the boundary-scan device(--emulbs option). + +.SH OPTION + +.TP 10 +\f4\-h,\-\-help\fP +Help mode.
