Keysight M8000 Series of BER Test Solutions User Guide 379
Setting up Patterns 7
• Trigger State - Specifies the trigger state. It can be an Add-in-Card
(AIC) or a root- complex.
• Lane - Specifies the lane number being used.
• Link - Specifies the link number being used.
• Compliance Receive Bit - Specifies whether the compliance received
bit is asserted or deasserted.
• Link Equalization - Determines whether link equalization should be
performed. It can either be aborted after phase 1 (Bypass) or fully
executed. In the second case it can be determined whether only preset
or all (i.e. individual cursor) requests should be accepted.
• Start Preset - Specifies the preset used by the J-BERT’s TX port after
switching to Gen 4 operation and when operating as an upstream
device.
• DUT Preset Hint - Specifies the preset hint being sent by the J-BERT to
the DUT during phase 0 of the link equalization procedure. It is only
used when the BERT operates as upstream device.
• DUT Initial Preset - Specifies the preset the J-BERT transfers to the
DUT in phase 0 of the link equalization procedure. It is only used when
the BERT operates as an upstream device.
• DUT Target Preset - Specifies the preset the J-BERT requests the DUT
to switch to during link equalization. Depending on the role the J-BERT
is playing, this is done in either phase 2 or 3 of the link equalization
training.
• Select Start Preset Gen 4 - User Defined
Defines which values to be used as Start Preset Gen4
• User_Defined - Start Preset (Gen 4) entered by user.
• Start Preset Gen 4 - Start Preset Gen 4 value entered by user (P0 – P9).
• DUT Initial Preset Gen 4 - DUT Initial Preset Gen 4 value entered by
user (P0 – P9).
• DUT Target Preset Gen 4 - DUT Target Preset Gen 4 value entered by
user (P0 – P9, Cursor)
• User Calibrated Presets - Specifies whether BERT's Data Out should
use user-calibrated presets or standard presets during link training.
Enabling it means that BERT’s Data Out will use
de-emphasis/pre-shoot values that had been previously calibrated,
otherwise it will use standard de-emphasis/pre-shoot values defined by
the PCIe3 specification. By default this option is turned off which means
that standard presets will be used.

Training on page 435.
