Introduction
1
The MPM-210 is a multi-port optical power meter for measuring optical characteristic
of optical devices. The MPM-210 is composed of up to five MPM-211/MPM-212/
MPM213 Measurement Modules (MM). There are three types of measurement
modules: MPM-211, MPM-212 and MPM-213.
The MPM-211 MM has 4 optical power measuring ports (4 channels). The MPM-
212 has 2 optical power measuring ports and 2 analog output ports and outputs
analog voltage signal proportional the optical power per each port. The MPM-213
has 4 electrical current measuring ports (4 channels), and is used as same as MPM-
211. The MPM-210 doesn’t have front panel nor display window but it can be easily
operated by remote control. The MPM-210 is controllable by using GPIB, LAN,
RS232 communication and users can interlock the system with other system (santec,
Tunable Laser, TSL-550 or TSL-710 and Polarization Controller PCU-100) and operate
it for measuring PDL and IL. Commands for controlling the MPM-210 are listed and
described in section 5.5.
