Narda FieldMan 111
11.1.3 Establishing an optical connection
11.2 Firmware update
The firmware update of the Narda FieldMan is performed using the Narda-TSX PC soft-
ware.
⇒ The description of how to perform the firmware update can be found in the online help
for the Narda-TSX PC software.
In principle, an optical connection can also be established with a PC and the PC software
can be used via this connection. However, due to the higher transmission speed, a USB
or Ethernet connection is much better suited for this purpose. However, for remote mea-
surements with HF probes, the optical c
onnection via fiber optic cable and optical-electri-
cal converter to USB is the best solution, because in this way interference is avoided.
Establish an optical connection:
1. Under GENERAL SETTINGS > CONNECTIVITY > OPTICAL INTERFACE, select
the Remote function.
2. Connect the device at the optical connector (see Fig. 2: 7) to a PC via the optical
cable.
↳ The first time the device is connected, it is automatically set up on the PC.
↳ After the setup, the device can be used.
3. For information on remote control of the device, refer to the online help for the Narda-
TSX PC software.
