SETup:TBERror:BCRC[:BLOCk]

Function

Sets/queries the Bad CRC Block which determines whether the data block is counted for BER calculation. See Bad CRC Block.

Setting

Range: EXCLude | INCLude

Query

Range: EXCL | INCL

*RST Setting

EXCLude

Requirements

Test Application Revision: A.02.00 and above

Programming Example

"SETup:TBERror:BCRC EXCLude"

SETup:TBERror:CONFidence:STATe

Function

Sets/queries Confidence State. See Confidence State.

Setting

Range: 1|ON|0|OFF

Query

Range: 1|0

*RST Setting

0 (Off)

Requirements

Test Application Revision: A.02.00 and above

Programming Example

"SETup:TBERror:CONFidence:STATe OFF"

SETup:TBERror:CONTinuous

Function

Sets/queries the trigger arm state for the loopback BER measurement. The trigger arm state determines whether the loopback BER measurement will be made once then stop (0|OFF (single)), or automatically re-arm upon completion of one measurement and repeat the process (1|ON (continuous)).

Setting

Range: 1|ON|0|OFF

Query

Range: 1|0

*RST Setting

0 (OFF)

Requirements

Test Application Revision: A.02.00 and above

Programming Example

"SETUP:TBERror:CONTinuous OFF"

SETup:TBERror:COUNt

Function

Sets/queries the number of bits to test. See Number of bits to test.

Setting

Range: 1000 to 999 999 999

Resolution: 1

Query

same as setting

*RST Setting

10000

Requirements

Test Application Revision: A.02.00 and above

Programming Example

"SETup:TBERror:COUNt 10000"

SETup:TBERror[:RATio]:REQuirement

Function

Sets/queries the BER Requirement, in percent.

When the confidence state is On, as testing progresses the bit error ratio trajectory converges to a BER value, which shall not be exceed this setting as test requirement. See BER Requirement.

Setting

Range: 0.10 to 50.00

Resolution: 0.01

Query

Range: 0.10 to 50.00

*RST Setting

0.10

Requirements

Test Application Revision: A.02.00 and above

Programming Example

"SETup:TBERror:RATio:REQuirement 0.1"

SETup:TBERror:TIMeout[:STIMe]

Function

The setting form of this command performs two functions: (1) sets the loopback BER measurement's timeout value, and (2) sets the loopback BER measurement's timeout state to 1 (ON).

The query form returns the loopback BER measurement's timeout value.

Setting

Range: 0.1 to 999.9 seconds

Unit: S | MS | US | NS

Query

Range: 0.1 to 999.9

*RST Setting

10 s, on

Requirements

Test Application Revision: A.02.00 and above

Programming Example

"SETup:TBERror:TIMeout:STIMe 5S"

SETup:TBERror:TIMeout:STATe

Function

Sets/queries the loopback BER measurement's timeout state.

Setting

Range: 1|ON|0|OFF

Query

Range: 1|0

*RST Setting

0(OFF)

Requirements

Test Application Revision: A.02.00 and above

Programming Example

"SETup:TBERror:TIMeout:STATe ON"

SETup:TBERror:TIMeout:TIME

Function

Sets/queries the loopback BER measurement's timeout.

Setting

Range: 0.1 to 999.9 seconds

Unit: S | MS | US | NS

Query

Range: 0.1 to 999.9

*RST Setting

10 s

Requirements
