# Switch to the "Target Settings" tab and setup your target connection (i.e. selecting 'NewAE USB (CWLite/CW1200)').
# Connect to the desired scope/target pair, using the toolbar buttons. The master button connects to both at the same time.
## * At this point, you may want to flash the desired firmware to the target, using the Programmer option in the Tools' menu.
# Once connected, both the "Scope Settings" and "Target Settings" list of parameters may expand, giving access to more advanced settings. You will have to setup these parameters which depend on what you want to capture. It usually involves setting the following parameters:
#* Trigger Pins
# You can also import, delete, edit or select/deselect the trace segments by opening the "Trace Manager" in the Project menu.
# Don't forget to save the Project after each change in the traces. A "Consolidate" option is also available to move/copy all the trace files to the current project directory. It is useful if you imported existing traces or captured it before creating the project.
Once you master this procedure and get tired of doing it over and over again, there are two things you can do about it:
# Create your own script (based on the existing ones) and add it to the chipwhisperer/software/chipwhisperer/capture/scripts or ~/chipwhisperer_projects/chipwhisperer/capture/scripts directories. You may want to copy/paste the lines from the "Script Commands" window, once the environment is already set, in order to make it easier.
# Set your capture environment and save the parameter groups using the Save buttons in the top of the Settings tabs. Other possibility would be to use the "Project"->"Save Settings" option to save all the settings at the same time to the "settings.cwset" file inside your project directory. The '''settings are NOT loaded automatically''' when the project is opened. Instead, you should click in the Load button for each group of settings that you want to restore. It is possible to have multiple settings profiles using different settings files. The capture tool also records the settings with the traces when they are captured. If you want to configure the tool to the same environment used in a previous capture, it is possible by loading the setting file saved inside the traces directory.
