Making a Fibre Channel Measurement
Setup Directions
The tool requires a known repeating pattern such as CRPAT, CJTPAT, K28.5, etc.
• If the SIA-3000 has the PM50 Pattern Marker option installed, connect the data directly to Channel 1 (IN1).
Note: If the Pattern Marker Option is not installed, you must have a pattern marker signal
supplied externally. The Marker is a pulse that repeats once per pattern. Pattern
Generators typically have a "pattern trigger" or "pattern sync" that will work. With an
externally supplied pattern marker, uncheck the pattern marker box.
• From the Main Dialog Bar, press "Data Standards" and "Fibre Channel" to Open the tool.
• Verify the channel settings.
• Press Arm Number and select Channel 1 and check Pattern Marker.
