BIT ERROR SETUP FIELDS

OVERVIEW: Bit errors can be injected by the RTAU using the

Bit Error Set Up fields. These sections are display-only fields that

are only displayed when the line code setting is INTERNAL. The

Status field always shows the current status if the line code is

INTERNAL, but the Error Counts and Elapsed Time fields only

show a value when a measurement is being made.

Error Count Input Range of 0 to

1544

Select either Error Count or Error Rate for bit error setup. Both

cannot be set at the same time. If single errors or a burst of

errors is desired, set the Error Count field to the number of

errors to insert. If the Error Count field is set, the number of

errors will be transmitted each time the Enter key is pressed.

Error Rate Toggle OFF, 1E-3,

1E-4, 1E-5,

1E-6, 1E-7

Select either Error Count or Error Rate for bit error setup. Both

cannot be set at the same time. If a steady error rate is desired,

set the Error Rate field, which indicates the rate bit or frame

errors are injected.
