Chapter 1 Overview

1.1 What is Remote Control?

The remote control function sends commands via the communications interface from the control PC to set the measuring instrument and read the measurement results and measuring instrument conditions.

The BERTWave supports the Ethernet or GPIB as a control interface. For MP210xA and MP2100B, the Option 030 is required to use GPIB interface.

When using either interface, set the number to distinguish the BERTWave from other equipment. This number must be an IP address and TCP port number when using the Ethernet interface, or the GPIB address when using GPIB connection. The character strings for controlling the BERTWave are called “command”. The command is composed of the ASCII character strings. For example, the following command is used to output the signal of the pulse pattern generator (hereafter, PPG) to the connector.

:OUTput:DATA:OUTput ON

A command for reading data from the BERTWave is called “query”. A query command has the question symbol (?) appended to the end of string. For example, sending the following command queries the PPG bit rate set at the instrument.

:OUTput:BITRate?

1-2

The control PC receives the following response to the query from the instrument.

1250000

The bit rate is 1250000 kbit/s.

When the BERTWave is measured via remote control, the Remote lamp on the screen is lit. Only the power switch and the key on the system menu are valid in this situation. This situation is called panel lock. To unlock the panel, touch menu.

Local/Panel Unlock on the system

Local/Panel Unlock

1.2 Main Uses for Remote Control

The main uses for remote control are:

Automation of measurement

To control measuring instruments by executing a program, instead of touch-panel operations. Measurement can be automated by describing the control procedures for controlling the measuring instruments, in the program.

Remote control of instruments

To collect measurement data by controlling measuring instruments installed at remote locations, over communications lines.

Control of multiple measuring instruments

To measure the characteristics of DUTs via the remote control of multiple measuring instruments.

Chapter 1 Overview

Figure 1.2-1 shows an example of controlling multiple instruments. In this example, the bit error rates are measured with changes in the optical input level of the optical receiver. On the control PC, set the attenuation of the optical attenuator to read the optical power level measured by the optical power meter, and the bit error rate measured by the BERTWave. Table 1.2-1 shows the measurement results that are obtained by changing the optical attenuation.
