STS-3
Figure 2–21: The TRANSMIT SETTINGS Page of the TRANSMIT Menu
Note that as soon as you changed the transmit rate that the red
ERROR light on the front panel came on and the red LOS, LOF, and
LOP status lights came on (also, NO SIG appeared next to the
incoming-signal icon at the top of the display). The lights turned on
because you can set the transmit and receive settings independently
and right now the receive section is still set to STS-1. You will
change the receive rate later in this tutorial.
An STS-3 signal is made up of three STS-1 signals. The CTS 710
can test only one signal at a time; therefore, you must specify which
of the three signals that make up the STS-3 signal you wish to test.
This tutorial has you test the second signal. The signal to be tested is
identified on the STS Under Test line.
