The Event Log, shown in Figure 19, loads and time- stamps IDSL circuit performance anomalies and threshold violations. This screen is a very useful aid in troubleshooting a chronic circuit. It monitors DDS sync loss, DDS open loop, IDSL OCU-R margin, IDSL sync loss, and power-up events. IDSL loop signal-to-noise margin is calculated on a numerical scale from 0-20 with 0 approximately equal to a BER of 1 x 10 -6and 20 equal to virtually a 0 BER.

The Set Circuit ID screen, Figure 20, sets the circuit identification.
