HP 37717C Calibration Manual

1-60
General Information
Specifications
Frequency measurement: Frequency
displayed in Hz, 1 Hz resolution.
Offset displayed in ppm and Hz.
Received overhead snapshot:
SOH can be set in binary or HEX.
SOH and POH of a received STM-1
signal.
SOH and POH of a received STM-0
signal.
Text message displayed for signal label
(C2 and V5) and sync status (S1)
decoded.
Overhead sequence capture:
Any one overhead channel is selected.
After a manual or programmed trigger,
the captured byte values are displayed
together with the number of
consecutive frames containing the
value.
Pointer location graph: A graphical
display that shows the variation with
time of the AU-n and TU-n pointer
location. Up to four days of pointer
location activity can be monitored.
Implied VC offset: The total positive
and negative pointer movements since
the start of the measurement period are
summed and the implied mean VC
offset calculated from this total.
Overhead BER measurement:
Any RSOH, MSOH or POH (except
A1, A2, H1, H2, Z1, Z2) channel is
selected and a BER measurement is
performed using a 29 - 1 PRBS inserted
into a 64 kb/s channel. Single errors can
be added to the test pattern. Error
count, error ratio, error free seconds,
% error free seconds and pattern loss
seconds are measured.
