| OVERVIEW: Start a measurement by selecting START at the | STOP |
|
|
|
| Measurement field. The RTAU will wait for pattern sync and |
|
|
|
|
| frame sync for framed patterns before starting the measurement. |
|
|
|
|
| After synching, the measurement display will change to |
|
|
|
|
| RUNNING. Stop any measurement by selecting STOP. Refer to |
|
|
|
|
| Figure |
|
|
|
|
| starting. |
|
|
|
|
| Note: If the Mode is set to MONE, MONF, LOOPE, or LOOPF, |
|
|
|
|
| only frame sync is required before starting the measurement. If the |
|
|
|
|
| pattern is not in sync, then the Data Error Counts will read “N/A” |
|
|
|
|
| until pattern sync is established. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| START | Initiate measurement. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| STOP | Terminate measurement. Note: Setting the Mode field to |
|
|
|
|
| DISABLE also stops any measurement in progress, as if the |
|
|
|
|
| Measurement field had been set to STOP. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
