9 Cable /transmission path test
9.1 Outline
The GF-100 outputs the test signals in order to measure the quality (bit color) of the cable/transmission path.
The test signals consist of random data and data that is under tougher condition (the hardware of the cable
and its transmission).
The resolution and color depth of the test signals can be selected.
