26-07-2011 - GPS signal provides synchronization to RF Equipment.

We have now our equipment synchronized with the GPS signal, with a GPS Master Clock, courtesy of "Brandywine Communications & Communication Pawlan."

 

22-07-2011 – Equipment of RF Laboratory controlled now by TCPIP 

The equipment that has LAN port, are now interconnected through a private LAN allows remote control (MatLab or other). The private network as IP like:192.168.70.xx that xx match with the order number of eq. list (also visible on a label on the eq front panel RF0xx). Equipment´s interconnected are VSA, VSG, PNA, OSC - 20GHz and Logic Analyzer.

 

22-07-2011 Ban the Pen Drivers utilization on Measurement Laboratory  

Because of repeated episodes of failure after using PEN Drivers it adopted an more functional alternative: each of equipment are connected to Internal RF LAN and you can save our data directly on a virtual mapped disc (W:) the data are stored on the “UsersFolder” on the RFLabPC (193.136.92.79). There you can record straight files (catch and settings) and have direct access to files through the internal IT network.

The login is: Lab.User and Pass: medidas.

 

 01-07-2011 - PNA of 67GHz are available again on the Medidas Lab.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 30-06-2011Are reduced the length of the Anechoical chamber.

 

 

 Now new hardware are coming for complete update.

 

  24-05-2011 - Start the electronic access to Lab and new rules and form application.
