Before you use the log_saif command, you must call open_saif. The log_saif command does not return any object or value.

Compile your RTL code with the -debug typical option to enable SAIF dumping:
```
xvlog -sv <fileName>.sv
xelab xsim mysim -debug typical top -s mysim
```
Use the following Tcl command to start SAIF dumping:
```
open_saif <saif_file_name>
```
Add the scopes and signals to be generated by typing one of the following Tcl commands:
```
log_saif [get_objects]
```
To recursively log all instances, use the Tcl command:
```
log_saif [get_objects -r *]
```
Run the simulation (use any of the run commands).
Import simulation data into an SAIF format using the following Tcl command:
```
close_saif 
```
