BERT and Unframed BERT

All Lanes check box is available with an unframed test with parallel
interface. When selected, it allows to set the same TX and/or RX test
pattern for all lanes. When All Lanes check box is cleared (default), a
different test pattern may be set for each lane.
When the All Lanes check box is cleared, for an unframed test, the
following pattern settings are available for each lane.

TX Pattern/RX Pattern: Select the test pattern from the list for each
lane and direction (TX and RX). Choices are PRBS9, PRBS11, PRBS15,
PRBS20, PRBS23, and PRBS31 (default).

Invert check box, when selected (cleared by default), inverts the test
pattern meaning that every 0 will be changed for 1 and every 1 for 0.
For example, the pattern 1100 will be sent as 0011.

Pattern Sync icon indicates the status of the received signal pattern.
Refer to Status Bar on page 24 for more information.
