Monitor Outputs
The MONITOR CLOCK and DATA outputs are provided so that you can
monitor the test signal as seen by the Analyzer. This allows you to attach an error
logging device, for example, to record the exact times that errors occur. Or, you
may attach another type of instrument to make specialized calculations.
MONITOR DATA is an NRZ output signal with the same bit sequence as that
recovered by the Analyzer front end circuit. MONITOR CLOCK is the
corresponding clock signal. Because the MONITOR output is a regenerated
version of the received test signal, bit errors reported by the Analyzer—due to
noise on the received data (or clock) signals—will be present in the MONITOR
DATA output bit sequence.
Output Setup
All three MONITOR ports (CLOCK, DATA, and Pattern Sync) are 50 Ohm,
single-ended outputs.
