7 Create the stream of generated and expected data.
For this purpose, the software provides the Sequence Editor. This Editor
enables you to create and maintain the data blocks that form the test
sequence.
For details see "Creating the Stream of Generated and Expected Data"
on page 133.
8 Insert segments into the blocks.
Each block can contain data segments that include generated and
expected data strings. Stored segments can be chosen from lists. New
segments are created with the Segment Editor.
For details see "Creating and Editing Segments" on page 155.
9 Connect the DUT physically to the instrument.
Use the Connection Editor to ensure that all physical connections
correspond to the image on the screen.
N O T E The general setup procedure is easy to remember. It corresponds to the
sequence of icons in the tool bar from left to right, starting with the
Connection Editor icon.

10 Setting up the test of a new device sometimes requires that you change
cables, add modules or frontends, or change the DUT board. In this case
you should compensate for different propagation and cable delays. This
can be done with the Deskew Editor (see "How to Compensate for
Internal and External Delays" on page 201).
Now you are ready to run the test.
