R&S AFQ100A
The Configuration section is used to select the type of measurement, the data source and the
termination criteria. If the data is not cyclically continued, the measurement can be selectively
interrupted and restarted. Certain data areas and frames that have been marked as faulty can be
excluded from the measurement.

Bit Error Rate Measurements - BERT Block
Selects the type of measurement: single or continuous measurement.
Continuous measurement of bit error rate.
Auto
If either or both of the termination criteria are met,
the measurement in progress is terminated and
immediately a new one is started automatically.
Depending on the settings made, a measurement
may take considerable time. During the first
measurement, intermediate results are displayed.
For the measurements that follow, only the final
results are shown. The parameters Data Bits and
Errors are continuously updated and indicate the
relative values for the measurement in progress.
Remote-control command:
BERT:SEQ AUTO
Single measurement of bit error rate.
Single
The measurement is started by clicking the
Execute Single button.
If a measurement is in progress, the current values
of Bit Error Rate, Errors and Data Bits are
cyclically displayed. The measurement is
terminated when either or both of the termination
criteria have been reached. To start a new
measurement, the Execute Single button must be
clicked again.
