5 Setting up Generator
FEC patterns require a block length of 5440 and use either an infinite
loop or counted loop. The loop count must be a multiple of 8.
Due to the differences between FEC frame length and sequencer word
width, there will be phases of invalid FEC data when transitioning from
a FEC encoded sequence lock into a non-FEC sequence block and vice
versa.
6 You can now insert the FEC error into the output data. It can be either
pre-FEC error or post FEC error. Select FEC Error Insertion function
block from the Parameters window.
