Send Pattern

This test sends packets filled with a hexadecimal 55 test pattern and sequence number over the selected interface and DLCI to another FrameSaver device.

To send a pattern test on a link:

Main Menu → Test → [Network PVC Tests/Data Port PVC Tests]

If the selected	Then . . .	And the default
DLCI is configured as . . .	Then . . .	Rate (kbps) setting is . . .

Standard	(Disruptive) appears	100% of CIR
	after Test

Multiplexed	(Non-Disruptive)	10% of CIR
	appears after Test

If the CIR is zero, the pattern will be sent at a rate of 1000 bps.
