The counters displayed above are now described:
• BLK ERROR: indicates the total number of errored blocks that occurred until that
moment during the test in progress. Any number of errored bits that occurred in a 1024-
bit block is marked as a single errored block.
• BLER: indicates the exponential notation proportion between the number of errored
blocks and the total number of received blocks.
• BLOCKS: exponential counter of the total number of 1024-bit blocks received during
the test in progress.
From that screen, it is possible to:
a. Press <F1> (BACK) to go back to the first error screen
b. Press <F2> (MENU) to go to the menu screen
c. Press <F4> (NEXT) to access the third screen
The basic errors second screen is the following:
• SLIP: indicates a clock slippage, or a misalignment between receive and transmit clocks.
