This booklet is intended as a handy reminder of the fundamen-
tals of BER measurement and of how to use the Agilent
71612 Error Performance Analyzer for BER measurements.

Full details of all the steps and procedures are given in the
71612 Operating and Programming Manual. We recommend
that you read the full manual before using this booklet.
