Percentage of frame erasures in error pattern files

The error pattern files from the scripts/dly_error_profiles directory:

ep_3pct.g192
ep_5pct.g192
ep_7pct.g192
ep_10pct.g192
ep_15pct.g192

used in CI tests all result in approximately 3% random frame erasures. This can be verified using the attached Python script:

count_0x6b20.py

user:cmd$ python count_0x6b20.py ep_3pct.g192
Percentage of 0x6b20: 2.90%
user:cmd$ python count_0x6b20.py ep_5pct.g192
Percentage of 0x6b20: 2.90%
user:cmd$ python count_0x6b20.py ep_10pct.g192
Percentage of 0x6b20: 2.90%
user:cmd$ python count_0x6b20.py ep_7pct.g192
Percentage of 0x6b20: 2.90%

The error pattern file ep_5pct_burst.g192 contains 3.5% of distorted frames (30 singletons and 1 burst).
