Tests Parameters
In the right part of the Tests view, the Parameters frame displays a short
description and a list of parameters to set for each test.
TR 101 290 Level 1 Tests (DVB/ATSC)
TR 101-290 Level 1 is a basic set of parameters that are considered
necessary to ensure that the TS can be decoded.
All tests of TR 101-290 level 1 are supported.
Available in AMETH3-LIC-SWITCH-STD.

TS Sync Loss (1.1)
This test checks TS synchronization.
It cannot be disabled, and its severity is always Critical.
Synchronization loss is detected when:
No data was detected for a given amount of time:
the input is plugged but no data is received. Set
this amount of time:
In the No data detected for field, in
microseconds (applicable to ASI and
SMPTE
310M).
In the No IP datagram detected for field, in
milliseconds (applicable to Gigabit Ethernet).
Percentage of erroneous symbols is too high: the
input may be unplugged. Set this value in the
Maximum ASI coding violation rate field
(applicable to ASI only).
The number of consecutive unsynchronized
Transport Packets has reached a given threshold.
Set this threshold in the Number of
unsynchronized packets field (applicable to ASI,
SMPTE
310M, Gigabit Ethernet).
When the input is unsynchronized, the other tests are
not performed.
When persistence duration is configured, the alarm
remains raised for a given amount of time after
synchronization. During this probation period, the other
tests are performed, however, associated alarms are not
raised. They will be raised as soon as the
synchronization alarm disappears, if they are still
present.
