Monitoring Test Patterns
Use the Monitor command to monitor a QRSS test
pattern over all the channels on the network interface, or
to monitor QRSS or 511 test patterns on the channels
allocated to an individual port.
This command provides the number of errors detected
in the test pattern (5 digits, maximum 99999).
To monitor a QRSS or 511 test pattern,
1. From the top-level menu screen, select Test.
2. From the Test screen, select Ptrns.

3. From the Patterns screen, select Mon.

4. From the Patterns Mon screen, press F1 for QRSS
or F2 for 511.

5. From the Monitor screen, press the Function key
that corresponds to network or the port for which
you want to send a test pattern. Use the scroll
keys, if necessary. (NET does not appear for the
511 pattern.)

The Monitor screen appears with the error count.
If the maximum of 99999 is exceeded, OvrFlw
appears instead of the count. If the receiver loses
synchronization while the monitor is active, No
Sync appears.
