Use the Work Folders Access feature on this meter to efficiently manage your measurement files and folders.

You can also use Access to synchronize your data with optional JDSU Test Productivity Pack (TPP) software. Through synchronization, this software can receive, transfer, manage, and archive the measurement data of multiple DSAM meters. You can also use synchronization with the software to receive firmware upgrades to this meter.

How Synchronize Works

IMPORTANT NOTE: SEE INSTRUCTIONS BELOW REGARDING SYNCHRONIZATION SET-UP AND CONFIGURATION.

Following set-up and configuration, use the arrow keys to highlight Synchronize on the ACCESS screen and press ENTER to begin the synchronization process. (The Help System is not available during this process.) The meter will automatically connect with JDSU Test Productivity Pack (TPP) software and transfer data. Press the OK softkey on the SYNCHRONIZATION COMPLETE screen to return to the ACCESS screen.

Component Set-Up and Configuration of the Synchronize Feature

You can synchronize your data with JDSU Test Productivity Pack (TPP) software using an Ethernet connection or RF connection. (NOTE: USB connectivity is not currently supported.)

Follow these steps to synchronize the DSAM:

Synchronizing with an Ethernet Connection:

Connect an Ethernet cable to the computer and to the Ethernet port at the top of the meter. When connecting directly to a PC (not through a network), use an Ethernet crossover cable. When connecting to a network, use a standard Ethernet patch cable.
Confirm the correct port selection

The default synchronization connection for this meter is "Ethernet." Press the CONFIGURE hardkey, use the arrow keys to highlight the Configure Access tab, and use the PC CONNECTION configuration screen to confirm (or select) Ethernet connection.
Define the IP address

On the PC CONNECTION configuration screen, use the alphanumeric keypad to type the IP ADDRESS of the computer intended for synchronization.

Synchronizing with an RF Connection:

Connect a coax cable to a RF connection and to the BNC connector on the back of the meter.
Confirm the correct port selection

The default synchronization connection for this meter is "Ethernet." Press the CONFIGURE hardkey, use the arrow keys to highlight the Configure Access tab, and use the PC CONNECTION configuration screen to select RF connection.
Define the IP address

On the PC CONNECTION configuration screen, use the alphanumeric keypad to type the IP ADDRESS of the computer intended for synchronization.
