Standalone G-Converter
SALES: 0118 965 5100
A BERT tester configured, as a DTE capable of generating test patterns should be connected
to the “DCE” port of the G-Converter.
With the link interface disconnected, the LOOP switch on the energised G-Converter set to
Local, the BERT tester will detect the clock being generated by the G-Converter and if the
unit is operating correctly the looped back data should be error free. The clock speed will be
determined by the switch setting.
Ensure that the “DCE” port is providing data rates between 0 and 2048Kbps by selecting 0 to
31 with the front panel switches. Note that during switching of DCE speed errors may be
generated. This is acceptable as long as when the speed setting is in a steady state no errors
are detected.
