In general, the subject matter described in this disclosure can be embodied in methods, systems, and program products for controlling a protocol analysis device when a code execution breakpoint is encountered. The method includes displaying computer code in a user interface of a software development program. The computer code includes a breakpoint. The computing system receives user input to cause a first hardware device to execute the computer code. The computing system instructs the first hardware device to execute the computer code. The computing system instructs a protocol analysis device that is in communication with the computing system to begin recording data that is transmitted between the first hardware device and a second hardware device. The computing system determines that execution of the computer code has reached the breakpoint and as a result instructs the protocol analysis device to start or stop recording the data.

A method and apparatus for calibrating an equalizer. The method comprises the steps of defining one or more equalization parameters and calculating a bit error rate of a signal for one or more values of a first of the one or more equalization parameters by counting at least one of running disparity errors and incorrect symbol errors. A value for the first of the one or more equalization parameters which provides the lowest bit error rate is set.
