4 Measuring with the NBM-520
36 NBM-520 Narda
4.12 Remote control
The NBM-520 can be remote controlled using the NBM-TS
software or from an NBM-550 measuring set. This allows
you to use the NBM-520 in places that are difficult to reach
and read the results without needing to see the actual dis-
play on the NBM-520. While the NBM-520 is remote con-
trolled, REMOTE appears in the display instead of field type
(E-Field or H-Field).
To remote control the NBM-520 from an NBM-550
measuring set
1. Set the NBM-550 to controller operating mode (see
NBM-550 operating manual).
2. Switch on the NBM-520 and connect it to the NBM-550
using a fiber optic cable.
The NBM-520 can be used as an extended probe
handle.
All the measurement functions of the NBM-550 can
be used.
Note: The probe must be connected to the NBM-520. Probes
connected to the NBM-550 will be ignored. The display of
the used probe type on the controller (NBM-550) changes
from Probe: to Remote: in order to indicate an external
probe (for example, Remote: EF0391).
To remote control the NBM-520 using the NBM-TS
software
1. Connect the NBM-520 to the PC (see “Connecting the
NBM-520” on page 40).
2. Use the NBM-TS software to control the instrument (see
“Working with the PC software” on page 40).
To set the NBM-520 from REMOTE operation back to
manual operation:
Briefly press the ON/OFF button.
