Driver Calibration
[PHQX01E / PHQX01E-IP / PHQXM-01E]
Note: All PHABRIX units are calibrated and verified prior to dispatch. Over time however, the SDI generator
outputs of the Qx may require recalibration.
On units with PHABRIX RTE™ (RealTime Eye) capability, the SDI generator outputs of the Qx can each be
calibrated using the SDI A Input of the Qx.
Note: Recalibration relies upon the calibration status of the Eye/Jitter analyzer. If in doubt consider returning
the unit to PHABRIX for calibration.
Warning: Before attempting Qx calibration, be sure to that you are using a 12G cable of the specification
described below. If in doubt, do not attempt to perform calibration on your unit.
SDI Output Calibration Steps
Calibration can be performed by first, connecting a 1 meter long cable between SDI A Input and the SDI
Output to be calibrated. A 12G-SDI grade or compatible cable with 12G-SDI BNCs must be used. Suitable
cable types include: Canare L-5.5CUHD, and Belden 1694A.
Note: If the Qx is in ‘SDI Stress Toolset’ mode, first disable ‘Jitter Insertion Mode’ before beginning driver
calibration. See ‘Advanced Generation Tools’ section of this manual for further details.
Next, from the ‘Instrument Launch Menu’, selecting ‘System Settings > Driver Calibration > Driver Calibration’
opens a calibration window.
A drop-down menu allows the selection of the output to be calibrated. For SDI Output A, select Driver A, etc.
Select ‘Start’ to begin calibration. The calibration of an output should take 2-5 minutes.
Once SDI Output A is calibrated, connect the output side of the cable to SDI Output B and repeat the process
outlined above, until all Qx SDI Outputs have been calibrated.
It may take approximately 20 minutes to calibrate all four outputs.
