The R&S
ZNB/ZNBT uses the Clear Signal Solutions AITT-DL implementation of the
Delta-L v4.0 algorithms (see
https://clearsig.com/clearsig/tools/#Delta
). It allows you to
perform:
●
1L (one line/length) analysis
Typically used for high-volume manufacturing (relative comparison)
●
2L analysis
Typically used for board-quality validation (removes the test fixture impact)
●
3L analysis
Typically used for material characterization (best accuracy, self-validation of
results).

Option R&S
ZNB/ZNBT-K231 can be ordered with a new instrument or retrofitted at
Rohde&Schwarz service.

Health and usage monitoring service (HUMS)
Option R&S
ZNB/ZNBT-K980
The R&S
ZNB/ZNBT comes with a health and utilization monitoring system (HUMS)
providing information about the R&S
ZNB/ZNBT. Aim is to increase the overall utiliza-
tion, to avoid downtime and to increase the overall security level of a fleet of instru-
ments.
HUMS provides, for example, information about:
●
Health status
●
Characteristics (device footprint)
●
Operation system / security patches
●
Usage of options
●
Calibration and service information
Interfaces and protocols
The HUMS installation on the R&S
ZNB/ZNBT includes an SNMP agent and a REST
service with HTTP endpoints. So you can access the health and usage information via
LAN, using the SNMP protocol or the REST protocol. Accessing the data does not
interfere with remote control via SCPI commands or with measurement execution.
