regions are defined using waveform markers
Mean, standard deviation, mean ± 1, 2, and 3 sigma, median, mode, peak-to-peak, min, max, total

hits, peak (area of most hits), X scale hits, and X offset hits

Mask testing

Allows pass/fail testing to user-defined or Agilent-supplied waveform templates. Automask lets

you create a mask template from a captured waveform and define a tolerance range in time/voltage

or screen divisions. Test modes (run until) include test forever, test to specified time or event limit,

and stop on failure. Executes “multipurpose” user setting on failure. “Unfold real time eye” feature

will allow individual bit errors to be observed by unfolding a real time eye when clock recovery is

on. Communications mask test kit option provides a set of ITU-T G.703, ANSI T1.102, and IEEE 802.3

industry-standard masks for compliance testing.
