Operating Basics: User Interface

Background Channels

The Background Channels section controls the settings for signal structure and test pattern of the non-active channels.

Signal Structure

Signal structure allows the user to choose the mapping structure for the background channels of the transmitted signal. The mapping structures provided for background channels are listed in the table below.

SONET	SDH
1 x STS-192c	1 x VC4-64c
4 x STS-48c	4 x VC4-16c
16 x STS-12c	12 x VC4-4c
64 x STS-3c	64 x VC4
192 x STS-1	192 x VC3

Test Pattern

Test Pattern allows the user to select one of four available patterns to fill the background of the internally generated 9.95238 Gb/s signal. The default pattern fill is inverted PN23. The patterns available are:

Inverted PN23 (ITU O.151) All Zeros

All Ones

Fixed Data (8-bit)

When Fixed Data is selected a button marked Edit Fixed Data is displayed. To change the Fixed Data to a different value, click the Edit Fixed Data button and type the new value into the text box beside the button. In the Test Pattern selection box, observe that the value after Fixed Data changes to match the newly entered value.

SPE/VC3 Stuff Column Control

The stuff column control allows column 30 and column 59 of the SPE (VC3) to be stuffed with either all zeros or with the selected payload pattern. This option is only available if the pattern Background Signal Structure is STS-1 or VC3.
