4.6. Identify Test Pass or Fail based on BTS GUI Test Status

QSFPDD0/QSFPDD1

Plug QSFPDD0/QSFPDD1 loopback module in J27/J48 before you configure QSFPDD NRZ/PAM4 example build through the BTS GUI.

QSFPDD800

Plug QSFPDD800 loopback module in J22 and use the MXPM cable between MXPM_FHT connector J2 and J8 before you configure QSFPDD800 PAM4 example build through the BTS GUI.

FMCA/FMCB

Plug FMCA/FMCB loopback module in J7/J9 before you configure FMCA/FMCB NRZ example build through the BTS GUI.

MXPM_FGT

Plug MXPM_FGT loopback module in J28 before you configure MXPM NRZ/PAM4 example build through the BTS GUI.

DDR4 DIMM

Plug the DIMM-I/II module, which is shipped alone with this development kit, in J5. The BTS GUI only supports fabric memory interfaces, namely DDR4 DIMM-2A (DIMM-I) and DDR4 DIMM-2B (DIMM-II).
