2.6 Installing the Probe
If you are planning to record HCI traffic from an Implementation Under
Test (IUT), you will need to connect the provided HCI probe to the IUT.
The HCI Probe is used for connecting the analyzer application running on
the host machine to a single IUT. If more IUTs are to be monitored (up to
three) additional HCI Probes should be used.
The probe is composed of the following components:
[ a ] HCITrace Probe Cable
[ b ] HCITrace RS232 Cable
[ c ] TTL to RS232 converter
[ d ] 2-port RS232 to USB converter
[ e ] USB cable

‘Host’ – Should be connected to the wire that carries the down-link traffic from

•
‘BTC’– Should be connected to the wire that carries the up-link traffic from
the controller to the host.
