Setting up the Instrument
Setting up the Error Detector
The next step is to set up the error detector’s inputs.
Connecting the DUT
You can now connect the DUT. In our case you
just have to connect the following ports:
Defining the Clock
Switch to the
Clock Setup.
Select

Edit
Set the Input to

This means, we need only one
cable that will be connected
between the pattern generator
and the data input port.
Normal
Enter the termination voltage
that matches the output
termination of the DUT, in our
case equal to the pattern
generator’s data output.
