The WFM601A,WFM601E and WFM601M monitors are self contained, half rack wide, waveform/vector monitors for the 270 MB serial component operating environment. They share a common design philosophy but are specialized for different applications.
The WFM601A is an operational monitor providing the signal monitoring features useful to the graphics workstation, telecine or camera setup operator.
The WFM601E extends the WFM601 platform to provide a more comprehensive evaluation of the digital transport layer and is used in digital production and master control operating centers
The WFM601M offers all of the video features of the WFM601A and WFM601E, and provides data analysis capabilities for the installation and maintenance engineer.
The WFM601M is a measurement quality serial component monitor with all features of the WFM601E. The WFM601M features additional digital analysis capabilities important to those involved in the design, installation and maintenance of 270 MB component digital systems.
WFM601M Features Include:
- Eye pattern view of the incoming data signal
- Eye pattern timing cursors with selectable jitter display, including high pass filtering
- Cable length readout, calibrated in meters
- Received signal power readout
- Source signal level meter, independent of cable length
- Extended format checking and data error detection
- Display of field check sums for fixed pattern testing
- Logic analyzer data word listing for detailed pixel analysis
- Field/Line/Word cursors on waveform and picture monitor with data value display
- Jitter demodulator with numeric jitter readout and video correlated jitter waveform display
- Calibrated component analog signal outputs
- Recovered clock output to reference external test equipment
