---Link Delay and Bit Error Rate Tester for TarsusPCM-PCI Hardware

The TarsusPCM-PCI-01 hardware/software provides an optional feature which provides precise measurements of bit sync performance with a known data pattern, as well as a full round-trip link delay calculation. Utilizing the long established TarsusPCM-PCI-01 Bit Sync/Frame Sync/Decom/PCM Simulator/IRIG time code reader, the LQ Tester is able to transmit a prestored pseudo-randomized pattern, or a user defined simulated pattern to the unit under test. The received signal is then compared to the original to provide a precise Bit Error Rate or a Round-trip Latency calculation. All IRIG standard codetypes are supported. Transmitter and receiver operate independently. Bit rates programmable up to 20 Mbps (10 Mbps BiP).

For current TarsusPCM-PCI users, no additional hardware is needed to gain all of this capability. With the addition of a license file, the TarsusPCM Software Suite provides all tools necessary to receive real, quantitative measurements in no time. With this utility there is no longer a need for an external data link analyzer in the lab.
