Using Smart Test

Description

The Smart Test function can help speed-up configuring the instrument in

 

two ways.

 

1 A Smartsetup feature that will attempt to configure the instrument

 

to receive the incoming signal.

 

2 A series of “links” that provide quick access to some of the most

 

frequently used features of the instrument. Note that these tests are

 

run with the instrument in its current configuration, no attempt is

 

made to set the instrument to the requirements of the test.

 

Smartsetup can help the user by attempting to identify the incoming

 

signal structure and detect mixed payload signal structures.
