checkId = ChkStart_ErrorFramesOccured();
// Add check as condition,

// the verdict of the test case is set to "failed"
TestAddCondition(checkId);
// sequence of different actions and waiting conditions
TestWaitForTimeout(1000);
// Remove check as condition
TestRemoveCondition(checkId);

// stop the check
ChkControl_Stop(checkId);

// reset stored values of the check
ChkControl_Reset(checkId);
// start the check again without adding as condition,
// that means that Error Frames are observed, but violations
// are not reported and do not set the test case verdict to "failed"
ChkControl_Start(checkId);
// sequence of different actions and waiting conditions
TestWaitForTimeout(1000);
// stop the check
ChkControl_Stop(checkId);

// analysis of check
numCheckEvents = ChkQuery_NumEvents(checkId);
if (numCheckEvents > 0)
    TestStepFail("Error Frame occurred!");
