Test Features and Results
Test Features and Results
Each test step may be accessed either automatically or manually.
Complete results are calculated at the end of the scan and are available
both graphically and in a data table; values outside the defined test limits
are highlighted. All data is saved to a database for archiving and future
display or printing.
Create as many port types as you require. Once defined, they will be used
to build a database of part numbers, enabling you to quickly reconfigure
parameters simply by selecting the appropriate part number. The
parameters in the port mask are used in the automatic Pass/Fail analysis.
Modularity and Flexibility
The system is built with the future in mind; the modular nature of the
hardware and the flexibility of the software make it easy for you to upgrade
or expand your test station. A single-channel system for measuring filters or
gratings can be expanded to 32, 64, or more channels by simply adding the
necessary plug-in modules. The system is also very compact: an entire
16-channel system, including PDL, will fit into a 4U (standard rackmount
units) rackmount space.
