Section1 General
1 - 1
MP1570A SONET/SDH/PDH/ATM Analyzer is capable of performing
automatic measurements when combined with an external controller.
For connection, the optional GPIB, RS-232C or Ethernet interface is
used.
This section gives the information relating to interface functions and
typical system up.
1.1 Interface Function ................................................................. 1-3
1.2 Typical System Up ................................................................. 1-4

Section 1 General

1.1 Interface Function
1 - 3
1.1 Interface Function
A remote control connector is provided on the rear panel of the
MP1570A.
Remote control of the MP1570A and data printed out using an external
printer can be realized by installing the GPIB, RS-232C or Ethernet
interface option.
Which option, GPIB or RS-232C, is allocated for remote control is
designated on the System subscreen of the Setup main screen.
GPIB interface: The GPIB interface of the 1570A conforms to the IEEE
(Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers) standard 488.1-1987.
The software specifications conform to the IEEE488.2 and SCPI
(Standard Commands for Programmable Instruments which is
explained in detail in SECTION 10).
RS-232C interface: The same commands as those of the GPIB interface
may be used.
Ethernet interface:The same commands as those of the GPIB interface
may be used.
Interface functions of the MP1570B include,
‐ control of almost all functions, excluding the power switch and Local
key
‐ read of all setup conditions and menu contents
‐ output to an external printer
