3.5.2 Pattern Source
The pattern source can be Internal/External.
When selecting the internal pattern source, the 81150A / 81160A does
generate the pattern internally either algorithmically or from memory.
Additionally it is possible to provide an externally generated data stream at
MOD-IN for re-shaping by the 81150A / 81160A. To do this, select the
external pattern source.
For details on external pattern, refer to the External Patterns section.
After selecting the Pattern Setup softkey, press the Pattern Source softkey.
The Pattern Source can be Internal or External.
If the Pattern Source is Internal, one of the built-in or user-defined
patterns or a PRBS can be selected.
If the Pattern Source is External, the pattern data is supplied on the
MOD-IN connector on the rear-panel of the 81150A / 81160A.
