Operation
The AMP 200N needs an AutoWave generator or a Netwave for operate. The AutoWave/Netwave generator
controls the AMP 200N via the framebus. The user needs the autowave.control or Netwave.controlsoftware
for operate the system with the AMP200N.
6.1
Test Setup with Autowave
The typical test setup with the control cable connections is illustrate in figure 4.1
For operation with AMP200N the software
AutoWave.control is necessary. For device control the
following interfaces must be used:
Devices
AutoWave AMP200N
AutoWave AMP200N VDS200x
NOTE: If the user has a device which needs GPIB,
(example VDS200x), it is mandatory to use
the GPIB interface.

Cabeling with Autowave
The general cabling with AMP 200N is
illustrated in Figure 3.2.
There are many applications that use an
AMP200N.
Please
refer
description in the specific standards.
Chapter Applications shows a selection test
setup and their specific software settings for
different tests.
