SECTION 1 - INTRODUCTION
The eBIRST tool set allows automated testing of Pickering Interfaces switching systems. The eBIRST tools measure
resistance of set paths at the user connection in the open and closed state using four-wire measurements. Based
on the results, the tool identies the relays that may be causing problems and provides a graphical output to
indicate their location. The eBIRST tools are designed primarily to nd defective relays, in a very small number of
circumstances they may indicate failures that are caused by other factors such as a defective relay controls. In these
circumstances eBIRST is a signicant aid in identifying the origin of these faults.
General Description of eBIRST parts
eBIRST Tool
The eBIRST Tool connects directly to a switching system to be tested or connects via an adapter, it is important
that the user makes sure the tool and any required adapter matches the target connector on the switching system.
Adapters are used where the switching system does not use the 200-way LFH, 78-way D-type or 50-way D-type
connectors. This includes RF switching systems based on SMB coaxial conenctors.
The eBIRST tool has a USB port which connects to the control computer.
In some applications two tools are required to test a switching system because there may be inputs on one connector
and outputs on another so a through path measurement will require two connectors to be supported. To facilitate the
testing of this type of system, on the rear of the eBIRST tool is an M-S port for connecting to another eBIRST tool
in the Master-Slave (M-S) mode.
The rear of the tool also has three LEDs:
• M-S indication LED illuminates on the slave tool only in Master-Slave mode.
• Identication LED ashes when a command to identify is sent.
• Power LED indicates the presence of supply voltage (eBIRST power is provided by the USB port).

Master-Slave Cable
A Master-Slave cable is required for applications where two eBIRST tools are required to test a single switching
system.
eBIRST Application Program
The eBIRST application program controls the testing of the switching system and creates a report describing the
test results.
NOTE: Throughout this manual & the eBIRST application the PXI / PCI / LXI Device Under Test (DUT) may be
referred to by various terms such as “instrument”, “switching system” and “DUT”, these terms are interchangeable.
Figure 1.5 - 50-way D-type to 23xSMB Adapter
eBIRST Adapter for RF Modules
For the testing of RF switching systems tted with SMB connectors eBIRST adapters are available that serve as an
interface between the eBIRST tool and the SMB coaxial connectors. Three versions are available:
• 50-Way D-type connector to 23 SMB connectors
• 78-Way D-type connector to 37 SMB connectors
• 200-Way LFH connector to 56 SMB connectors
The RF adapters are universal and can be used with any module tted with a quantity of SMB connectors up to the
maximum number for a particular adapter. During the set-up of the eBIRST application the connection details for the
adapter can be presented (see the Tools Page section for details) to the user.

Getting Started
Connect the eBIRST tool to the switching system either directly or through the cable/PCB/RF adapter. Ensure any
screw locks are securely fastened from the eBIRST tool to any adapter or switching system to be tested.
Connect the eBIRST tool to the control computer via the USB cable. We do not recommend that connection is
made via Pickering Interfaces 40-738 USB Hub due to the way the driver operates when opening and closing PXI
interfaced modules. However users can connect the eBIRST tool to any conventional USB hub if the PC lacks
enough direct USB connections.
The control computer must have the following features / abilities:
• Be able to control the switching system.
• Must be running a Windows operating system.
• Have a USB connection available to connect to the eBIRST tool. This can be a connection via a USB hub if
the PC USB connections need expanding.
In the case of PXI systems, the controller can be remote from the chassis or embedded. For LXI systems the
controller should be connected to the switching system by an Ethernet cable.
It is permissible to connect two eBIRST tools to different switch systems for concurrent testing.
If two tools are to be used in Master-Slave mode then they should be linked with an M-S cable.

eBIRST Test Tools
eBIRST Cable Adapter
eBIRST is a range of USB controlled test tools capable of performing
automated path resistance tests on Pickering Interfaces switching
products. The tool simply interfaces with the product’s user connector
so a test can be run using the supplied Windows based software.
The tool is offered in a variety of versions for testing different
switching products, each version is dedicated to one connector type
and capable of testing any relay with a consistent path resistance
at 30mA (any reed relay, solid state relay or typical EMR with 2A or
less current rating). There are three core tools and a set of adapter
interfaces to cover connectors used in our switching system range.
Benefits of eBIRST
The eBIRST range drives down the cost of ownership of switching
systems:
• Easy local repair of switching systems
• Right rst time repairs reduce the time and stress introduced by
incorrect fault diagnosis
• Minimise system down time, eliminate the expense and time
in returning damaged systems
• Reduces service cost
• Ease the time and cost of regular calibration intervals
Testing a Switching System
To test a switching system, most products require just a single test
tool. Support for some connectors requires the use of a PCB based
adapter or a cable adapter and a termination xture. The supplied
application program allows the tool to measure the switching
system path resistance and identify relays which fail to open (are
welded), fail to close or have high path resistance.
The eBIRST software will automatically
choose the correct tool settings for measuring
the path resistance to match the requirements
of the relays in the switching system under
test. Once a test is completed the application
software highlights relay failures and issues,
identifying the physical location of the
defective relay on a graphical representation of
the switch system layout. Once identied, the
switching product can be repaired locally and
the test re-run to ensure the corrective action
has been successful.

Two Tool Master Slave Operation
Some products with multiple user connectors and a switched
thru path may require the use of two tools in a master-slave
arrangement to provide 100% test coverage, where this is the case
users should purchase two tools to match their connectors and the
eBIRST slave mode connection cable accessory.
Testing RF Modules
The DC testing of RF coaxial products tted with SMB connectors
can be supported by ordering an interface adapter that converts
the eBIRST interface to a coaxial interface.
Mechanical Compatibility
Tool dimensions are compatible with use in PXI, LXI and PCI
products without having to remove connectors from adjacent user
connections or modules.
USB Control
The eBIRST tools are simply controlled by attaching them to the
USB ports of a PC or a USB hub. The USB2 connection provides
all the power the eBIRST tool requires.
Tool Verification
eBIRST tools can be veried by the use of an optional verication
xture. When used with a single tool, the xtures check that the
eBIRST tool is performing to acceptable accuracy, when two tools
are available of the same type the xture can be used to perform a
full functional test of its accuracy and the functionality of the in built
multiplexer used to access the switching system connector pins.
