Versatile tester for IEEE-1394 bus
The new FireWorks 1394 VK9000 from Yokogawa Martron is designed to provide engineers with a powerful 'out of the box' solution for testing systems based on the IEEE-1394 bus.
In addition, it allows file transfer of measurement data from the hard disc of the spectrum analyser to the PC.
In R and D applications, the software will allow users to analyse one set of measurements while the analyser is being used to make new measurements.
In manufacturing, the remote control capabilities allow the user to create, edit and run macros on the spectrum analyser and transfer new measurement results directly to the PC.
All analysis functions provided by the AQ6370 are supported by the AQ6370 viewer software, including automatic analysis of parameters such as spectral width, optical signal/noise ratio, EDFA evaluation and optical power analysis.
A setting mode is included for WDM filter analysis, and pass/fail templates can be implemented for manufacturing test applications.
