9-Channel Bus and Node Monitoring Test Set Overview
Designed for Electromagnetic Environmental Effects testing, the rugged IEEE-1394/MIL1394 9-Channel Bus and Node Monitoring test set monitors up to nine independent IEEE-1394-2008 Beta buses for bus resets and number of nodes present on the bus.
The 9-CH test set monitors up to nine (9) 1394 buses for bus resets and the resulting number of nodes present on the bus. The test set consist of a battery powered 9-Channel Monitor which interfaces to the air vehicle through three well-shielded (3) D38999 cables, a battery-powered Remote Display, two battery-powered copper to fiber optic Extenders (Extender) and associated cables along with a carrying case.
The 9-Channel Monitor provides the bus reset and node count information over an Ethernet “back-channel” connection to the Remote Display for viewing. The Ethernet connection between the 9-Channel Monitor and the Remote Display may be direct using a copper Ethernet cable or through two of the provided Extenders and the provided 30m/100ft optic cable. During EEE testing, the optical connection provides superior electrical isolation between the 9-Channel Bus Monitor and the Remote Display.
