70810A – Optical SensorAgilent 70810B Lightwave Section:
System Improvements for Agilent 71400C and 71401C Lightwave Signal Analyzers
The Agilent 70810B lightwave section significantly enhances the capabilities of the
Agilent 71400C and 71401C lightwave signal analyzers. Unlike the Agilent 70810A,
which operated as a master module within the modular measurement system (MMS), the
Agilent 70810B is a slave module to the MMS local oscillator. This important difference
allows the user to access and utilize the functions available in the electrical spectrum
analyzer in MMS.
This product note summarizes key differences of Agilent 71400C and 71401C lightwave
signal analyzers, when configured with the Agilent 70810A and 70810B lightwave sections.
Key differences covered in this product note include:
* New features
* Measurement enhancements
* Menus
* System configuration
* Remote commands
For complete information on the operation of Agilent 71400C and 71401C lightwave signal
analyzers, refer to the Agilent 70900B Local Oscillator Operation and Programming manuals.
