Error Insertion
The error insertion is capable to enforce a given error ratio, and to
add single errors into the data stream. Both are available in parallel.
Insertion Rate
:SOUR1:PATT:EADD:RATE
Syntax :SOUR1:PATT:EADD:RATE?
:SOUR1:PATT:EADD:RATE NR3
Description Either sets or gets the error insertion rate. Only the listed
error rates are available. If another value is specified while
sending the command, the error rate will be rounded to the
next available value.

Add Single Error
:SOUR1:PATT:EADD
Syntax :SOUR1:PATT:EADD ONCE
Description Adds a single error to the generated data stream. This is
available even if the cyclic error insertion is active.
Output Level
:SOUR1:VOLT
Syntax :SOUR1:VOLT?
:SOUR1:VOLT ECL|LVDS
Description This either sets or gets the output level. The output is
always AC. Specifying the output level actually changes
only the amplitude of the generated electrical signal.
