under test. Signals on each carrier can be configured independently. For
example, one carrier can send DAB signal and another one can send DAB+
signal. For more details, refer to Carrier
Configuration Summary Table.
Select from the tree view. There are two methods to configure the ensemble.
Select or as the Input Pattern, and use an ETI file as payload. Using this method, the parameters for services and service components will be set automatically. Then you can skip step 5, step 6 and go to step 7 directly.
Select as the Input Pattern, then configure each service and service component.
