Defect Insertion

The Defect Insertion section of the Error Insertion menu, as shown in Figure 2-23, provides all controls for inserting defects. The Defect Insertion Setup, on the left side, provides menus for defect insertion setup. The Current Defect Insertion and Insertion Control, on the right side, supply information on the current insertion state and provide the insertion controls.

To select the type of defect injected, use the pull-down menu labeled Type under Defect Insertion Setup. The defect types available are LOS, LOF, MS AIS (AIS-L), MS RDI (RDI-L), AIS-P, RDI-P, ERDI-P Payload, ERDI-P Server, ERDI-P Connectivity, and LOP-P. To choose a defect burst time, click on the arrows or highlight and type in the boxes labeled Burst.

NOTE: For these changes to take place, the Apply Defect Setup Changes button must be clicked. The Current Defect Insertion settings will then reflect the new changes.

To start the defect insertion, click one of the buttons under Insertion Control.

Insert a Burst – Clicking on this button will inject a single burst of the defect type reflected under Current Defect Insertion.

Start Continuous Insertion – Clicking on this button will continuously inject the defect type reflected under Current Defect Insertion.
