a. You can turn on the Erasures-supporting decoder or Va ri ab le options.
b. You can select Full or Half keysize.
c. You can turn on the Error Symbol or Bit Error outputs. For the bit error output,
you can select Split Count or Full Count.
For more information about these parameters, refer to Table 3–2 on page 3–7.
4. Click Next.
5. Select the parameters that define the specific RS codeword that you wish to
