Control Panel (LRCP) software or OM1106 Optical Modulation Analysis
software installed on a PC or oscilloscope running Microsoft Windows 7 operating
system, which in turn is connected to the instrument with an Ethernet cable
(directly from PC or through a network). Refer to the Laser Receiver Control
Panel (LRCP) Software User Manual (077-1127-xx) or the OM1106 Optical
Modulation Analysis Software User Manual (077-1093-xx) for information on PC
requirements, installing software, configuring the instrument network settings,
and operating the OM2012 instrument.
