The "Data Source" selection for PRBS data from the dilaog is "PN11, ...".
Simple data patterns such as binary 0 strings or 1 strings can also be used as internal
modulation data. The "Data Source" selection from the menus is "ALL 0", "ALL1". A
variable bit string with a maximum length of 64 bits can be entered in an input field by
selecting "Pattern."
5.8.1.2 Internal Modulation Data from Lists
Internal modulation data can be generated and stored in the form of binary lists. A sep-
arate file is created for each list and held on the instrument's hard disk.
The file name can be defined by the user.
The "Data Source" selection from the menus is "Data List". When this menu item is
chosen the "Select Data List" button appears; this opens the file-selection window for
data lists. A list can be created and edited in the "Data List Editor", which is accessed
from the menu via the "List Management" or "Data List Management" button.
The maximum length of a data list is determined by the size of the data list memory
(see data sheet). There is no restriction on the number of lists that can be stored.
5.8.1.3 External Synchronous Modulation Data
External Serial Modulation Data via the DATA Connector
For "Custom Digital Modulation", serial modulation data can be supplied bit-by-bit via
the DATA connector. The "Data Source" selection from the menu is "Extern Serial".
