Getting Started with TDSET3
You can use this side of the Quick Reference Card to get
started with testing the Ethernet’s physical layerfor
1000Base-T Templates. The other side contains a complete
menu tree for the TDSET3 application.
NOTE. For complete operating instructions,
refer to the application Online Help.
TDSET3 Ethernet Compliance Test Software enables
unprecendented efficiencyby providing a comprehensive
rangeoftests, including Return Loss.
Testing 1000Base-T Templates
Follow these steps:
1. Connectthe probes to the Device Under Test (DUT).
For example, the testsetup for 1000Base-T Template is
shown below.
WithDisturbingSignal
3. Click1000-T in the Speed pane or select Tests > Select
> 1000BASE-T fromthemenu bar.
4. From the Template/Volt tab, click Select All. You can
also select one template at a time to test.
5. ClicktheConfigure button from the Selection pane, or
select Tests > Configurefrom the menu bar tochange
the configuration settings.
9. To measure the disturbing signal, connect the Tektronix
AWG to the TC5 area ofthe test fixture and click
Measure.
10. To compensate for non-linearities in the test fixture,
connect the DUT to the TC2 area of the test fixture and
click Measure. This measures the DUT Amplitude.
11. Next,tomeasure theProbe Point Amplitudeand
Attenuation, connect the DUT to the TC5 area of the test
fixture, and click Measure. Click Apply.
12. Click View Wfm from the Selection pane. If the
acquired waveformlookssimilarto the one displayed by
TDSET3, continue to step 13. If thewaveforms do not
match, check the connection and the configuration.
Ensure that the first pulse is rising.
13. Click Run Test in the Execution pane. The application
displays the resulting waveform and the results.

2. Select File > Run Application > Ethernet Compliance
TestSoftware in the oscilloscope menu bar.
6. Select the data source, number of averages, filter, and the
reference waveform to store the processed waveform.
7. To test Te mplates with Disturbing Signal, select
Disturbing Signal as Yes.TheTektronix AWG
waveform files are available at
C:\TekApplication\TDSET3\AWG Waveforms. To test
Templateswithoutdisturbing signal, selectDisturbing
Signalas No and skip steps8 through 11.
8. Click Connect from the Selection pane and click the
JigMatch button. Select Help and connect accordingly.
To compensate for non-linearities in the disturbing
signaland the testfixture, useJigMatch (steps 9 through
11).Otherwisegotostep12.
14. Click Result in the Execution pane to view the result
summary and details.
NOTE. To manually fit thewaveform intothe
mask, select Result in the Execution pane and
click theManualFit button.
15. ClickResult from theExecution pane to configure the
report. Enter the Device Details, Port ID, Pair ID, and
the Report File. You can specify that you want to
automatically preview the report.
16. Select Summary from the Execution pane to generate
and save a brief .csv report at
C:\TekApplications\TDSET3\ReportGenerator\Reports.
17. Click Detail from the Execution pane to generate and
save a detailed .rpt report at
C:\TekApplications\TDSET3\ReportGenerator\Reports.
18. If you wantto customize the report format, select
Utilities > Report Generator. In the Generate Report tab,
select the template and click the Generate button to post
the test data to the template.
