Note: LSS is a state when there is no synchronization with the data being

received and it is impossible to evaluate the BER parameter. The possible
causes of the loss of synchronization are:

Inconsistency of test sequences (for example, PRBS 2e15 is set at the
receiving end, but PRBS 2e23 is being transmitted through the
channel).

The BER value of the channel being used for transmitting the sequence
is too high (the threshold value is 0.01).

You can manually inject single-bit errors into the outgoing test pattern
simply by clicking the

button.
