The APPL Menu

The following applications are in the APPL menu:

 Disk application

 Network application

 Jitter composer

These applications are used like an editor to generate a waveform for specific
purposes.

Disk Application

Using this application, you can easily create test signals for reading or writing
data from/to hard disk media.

Signals are created using the following process:

 Input binary bit pattern expressed by 0 and 1.

 Convert the input pattern and estimate the positions of the generated pulse

and polarity.

 Superpose an isolated pulse in the position estimated above. The pulses shift

during superpose.
