Parameters Description Values
Acquisition Parameters
Acquisition Location Location or Location Group against which
the data acquisition is performed.
Sample Delay Specify the sample delay resolution. Min - 5 mUI
Max - 200 mUI
Sample Delay
Optimization
Specify the sample delay optimization. None | Fast Total
Jitter
Fast Total Jitter at BER Specifies the Fast Total Jitter BER. This is a
conditional parameter and appear when
Sample Delay Optimization is selected
as “Fast Total Jitter”
Min - 1E-15
Max - 1E-9
No. of Compared Bits Specify the criteria for moving to the next
measurement and is only enabled when the
Sample Delay Optimization is “None”.
Min - 1 E+0
Max - 1E+18
Enable Number of Errors Use the slide switch to enable this property.
Once this property is enabled, you can
specify the additional number of errored bits
to consider while moving to the next
measurement
ENABLE | DISABLE
Number of Errors Specify the criteria for moving to the next
measurement and is only enabled when the
Sample Delay Optimization is “None”. This
parameter gets enabled when you enable
the “Enable Number of Errors”.
Min - 1 E+0
Max - 1E+18
Evaluation Parameters
BER Threshold Specify the BER threshold Min - 1E-15
Max - 1E-1
Min BER for RJ/DJ
Separation
Specifies the minimum BER for random and
deterministic jitter components separation.
Min - 1E-18
Max - 1E+0
Residual BER for
Estimated Total Jitter
Specify the residual BER for estimated total
jitter.
Min - 1 E-12
Max - 1E-6
