Analyzer type considerations
In the Configuration menu you have the choice of configuring an
analyzer machine as either a State analyzer or a Timing analyzer.
Some menus in the analyzer will change depending on the analyzer
type you choose. For example, since a Timing analyzer does not use
external clocks, the clock assignment fields in the Format menu will
not be available.
If a menu field is only available to a particular analyzer type, the field
is designated (Timing only) or (State only) after the field name. If no
designation is shown, the field is available for both types.
