InstallingtheSoftware
InstallationonWindows&Mac
Download the latest version from our site, here: http://www.saleae.com/downloads. Double click &
install like any other application.
Note: Windows XP Users: Please download the 32‐bit version of the software.
Note: Vista & Windows 7 Users: Please download the either 32‐bit or 64‐bit installation depending on
your version of Windows. You can find out by right‐clicking Computer in the start menu, and choosing
Properties.
OS X Tiger Users: The application needs to be unzipped before it can be installed.
InstallationonLinux1. Download the latest version from our site, here: here: http://www.saleae.com/downloads.
2. There is no installer, you can unzip the application anywhere you like, perhaps your home
folder, or your desktop. You can start using it on your desktop, and move it later if you like.
3. Double click the Logic executable to start the program.
4. If you like, make a link to the Logic application for your desktop or application menu or dock.
5. Note that wherever you decide to put the logic application, it must all stay together in the same
folder structure, and it must have write permissions.
6. When connecting to Logic, you may get a message from the application that it doesn’t have
permissions to connect to Logic. If this happens, run the install_driver script in the application’s
Driver folder.
32‐bit vs. 64‐bit: Please choose the version appropriate for your Linux Distribution.
64‐bit Users: Please note that as of 1.1.5, you won’t be able to load sessions saved with other
versions (platform distributions) of the Logic software. However, other Logic software distributions
will be able to load sessions that you save. Sorry for the trouble – we’ll get this fixed.

UsingtheHardware
Connectingthewireharness
To determine the correct way of attaching the wire harness, look on the back of your device for the
ground symbol:
Then find the gray wire on the wire harness. This is the ground wire. It will have a GROUND label near
its end:
Logic16Wireharnesses
Logic16 uses two 9‐wire harnesses. On the bottom of the device, these are labeled A and B. A is
channels 0‐7, and B is channels 8‐15.
Note that you don’t need to have both harnesses plugged in if you’re only using the first 8 channels.
TestClips
You can connect your test leads (from the wire harness) to the provided test clips. They might require
quite a bit of force before they “click.”
ConnectingdirectlytoIDEheaders
In some situations, you will be able to plug the test leads directly into IDE headers on your PCB, which
can be very convenient. For new PCB designs, we recommend including headers for things you might
need to look at during firmware development. You only need to solder in the headers if you have an
issue, and they can be removed in the final PCB revisions if needed. These will serve as nice test points
for an oscilloscope as well. Don’t forget to wire in some ground pins as well.
