One piece of functionality I need is sniffing a serial connection between two devices. Not just a set number of samples - I mean capturing both TX and RX bytes to file/PC memory, for however many hours I need to catch my nasty little bug.
The actual amount of data transfered is low. I'm actually utilizing maybe 30% of the capacity, at around 10kB/s TX and RX.
On top of that, I'd like to add support for my custom software protocol that's running on the UART. Kind of like in wireshark you can see what a packet is, not just a plaintext context-less byte barf. If waveforms doesn't support this, I'm completely fine with writing an utility that, say, takes raw UART data over loopback TCP and formats it externally.
Is this possible on the Analog DIscovery? What settings should I be using to make it work like that?

Hi folks!
I'm thinking of buying an Analog Discovery 2.
