Introduction
1.1 Mainframe
The MT1000A Network Master Pro (hereafter called the Network Master and sometimes the instrument) is a battery-powered multipurpose telecommunications test instrument for field use. It is a tool for a wide range of applications from fast first-aid troubleshooting to comprehensive, in-depth analysis of transmission problems. The installed options enable the Network Master to be used both as a full-featured transmission line quality tester and as an advanced analyzer. The Network Master features a wide TFT LCD display with touch screen interface, where results are easily read and color coding and graphical symbols aid the users in system setup and results analysis. The Network Master also allows users to store applications settings to reduce time for future configurations. For fast and efficient data transfer and external communication, the Network Master houses LAN interface, WLAN interface, Bluetooth, and three USB ports. Fault location is greatly facilitated by the high degree of portability of the robust Network Master, allowing measurements to be taken at any suitable measuring point. Accordingly, the Network Master can be powered either by a rechargeable and replaceable intelligent high- capacity Li-Ion battery, or via AC adapter for long-term measurements. Altogether, these features guarantee the supreme functionality of the Network Master, allowing both convenience and optimal user-friendly operation. For latest information, refer to the homepage below. https://www.anritsu.com/en-us /test-measurement/products/mt1000a

Modules

1.2 Modules
1.2.1 10G Multirate Module

The 10G Multirate module (MU100010A) allows the Network Master to test a large variety of interfaces and systems up to 10 Gbps, like OTN interfaces, Ethernet interfaces, SDH/SONET interfaces, Fibre Channel interfaces and PDH/DSn interfaces. The MU100010A provides two ports which have both electrical interface and optical interface. The optical interface supports various interfaces by changing the optical transceiver. The instrument is thus ideal for measuring in- and out-of-service transmission quality.
The instrument’s two ports permit immediate monitoring of the two sides of a line and allow comparison of simultaneously recorded results.

1.2.2 100G Multirate Module

The 100G Multirate module (MU100011A) allows the Network Master to test systems in interfaces bit rate of up to 10 Gbps, 25 Gbps, 40 Gbps, and 100 Gbps by using SFP+, SFP28, QSFP, and CFP4 optical transceivers

4 Graphical User Interface
This chapter provides a general introduction to the graphical user interface (GUI). The descriptions of the screens, sub-screens and major dialog boxes related to specific technologies and applications are placed in separate chapters.
79

Graphical User Interface
4.1 General Handling of the GUI
The Network Master is equipped with a touch screen display, except for the key to switch the instrument on/off. The operating principle of the graphical user interface (GUI) presented on the touch screen display is that it guides you through all setup steps required for running a specific test and then finally presents you with the test results. You can also navigate back and forth between setup steps and result presentation to re-run a test with new parameter settings if required.
4.1.1 GUI Concept
The GUI can be split up into two functional spaces or levels: the desktop and the workspace.
The desktop is the entry level which appears after the booting. It consists of the application selector, which allows you to start a new application, and the result file browser, which allows you to access previously created and stored test results. The workspace is where you work with a specific application (i.e. set up and run a test and inspect the test results). Your selection on the desktop creates the workspace and loads relevant data into it.
Application selector
The application selector loads a new application into the workspace. A new application can be either one of the standard applications provided with the instrument or a previously saved application with partial or full configuration of interface/test setup parameters.
Result file browser
The result file browser loads the results and configuration of a previous test into the workspace. This allows you to do following:
Creating a report of the result file Performing the measurement with same settings as the result file Performing the measurement with modified settings from the result file
80

General Handling of the GUI
A specific set of resources (i.e. ports) are assigned to a workspace when it is created. More than one workspace can therefore exist at the same time, each assigned to different resources.
4.1.2 Navigating in the GUI
As shown in the figure of “General Handling of the GUI”, you can navigate from the application selector to a specific application in the workspace vertically. You can navigate between the application selector and the result file browser in the desktop horizontally. In this way, you can switch screens in both horizontal and vertical navigation.
Horizontal navigation at desktop level You can switch between the application selector and the result file browser by touching the tab displayed in the bottom right-hand corner and the bottom lefthand corner.
Horizontal navigation within a workspace In the workspace you can step through the setup by touching the navigation tabs displayed in the bottom corners of the screen. The right-hand tab brings you to the next step in the setup, while the left-hand tab allows you to take a step backwards. Alternatively, you can use the screen indicator at the bottom of the screen to switch between ports setup, test setup and test result.
It is also possible to loop back directly to the ports setup from the test result screen if you need to rerun the test with different settings. To get from the Test Setup to the Test Result screen during a new test, you must run the test. This is done by touching the ‘Start’ icon in the Application toolbar, which is the expandable toolbar shown on the right-hand side of the screen. Please refer to the separate Toolbars section for information about the toolbars. Vertical navigation between desktop and workspace When an application is currently running, the application selector screen will contain a tab at the bottom which allows you to go directly to the screen last displayed in the application’s workspace. Similarly, the result file browser screen will contain a tab at the bottom which brings you to the test result screen of the running application.
81

Graphical User Interface
From a setup screen you can return to the application selector using the tab at the top of the screen. Test result screens contain a tab at the top which returns you to the result file browser.
4.1.3 Layout of the GUI Screens
Startup Splash Screen The Network Master starts up with a splash screen that shows the GUI concept of desktop/workspace and the various screen types. It indicates both application selector and result file browser as entry points.

Graphical User Interface
Adobe® Reader® is recommended as a PDF viewer to open or print out the report. “Include Performance Verification dates” check box appears in version 3.01 or later. Creating reports from the Result File Browser will not take up port resources on the system. From the Result File Browser, select the result file for which you want to create a report and touch the Report icon ( ). The Report Generator will remember previous used setup parameters. The first page is common for all applications while setup parameters on subsequent pages are remembered on a per application basis. Alarm/Error Insert Touch this icon to activate the stimulus specified in the stimuli setup available in the expanded Application toolbar. Only relevant if the stimulus has been set to manual insertion. The stimuli function is used to generate special or abnormal conditions during a test.
The color of the icon is coded according to the current level of stimuli inserted. The different levels are prioritized so that higher levels of stimuli overrule lower levels. The overall highest stimuli level (see the list below) for all ports included in the application is reflected.
Red: Alarms are currently being generated. (highest level) Yellow: Errors are currently being generated. Green: No alarms/error are automatically inserted. Active stimuli require manual insertion by touching the Alarm/Error Insert icon. Blue: Frequency, Pointer, or Payload offset stimulus is currently applied.

Toolbars Load Save Touch this icon to open Load/Save dialog box. You can load or save Setup file or Result file. Only files matching the current application type are selectable for loading. When loading setup files, the number of port resources enclosed in the file has to match that of the current application. When loading result files, the exact physical ports enclosed in the file has to match that of the current application. Apart from actual results, result files also contain settings sampled at the time the test was performed. When loading result files these settings will overwrite current application settings. Loading result files into a viewer will not take up port resources on the system. This is practical if you only want to review previous results and don’t need to run test again. From the Result File Browser, select the result file you want to view and touch the View icon ( ) at right hand top of the screen. Stimuli setup Various fields and buttons are available for setting up a stimulus signal to provoke a special or abnormal situation during the test. When the signal has been specified, the stimulus is sent by touching the Alarm/Error Insert icon (
). The stimulus signal is sent via the transmitter, and the received signal can simultaneously be inspected as a related status or result display. This allows to evaluate the behavior of the device under test.
The setup options vary depending on the stimulus mode (i.e. the signal type). Common functions for all stimulus modes are the port selection and stimulus type drop-down menus. Touching the Clear all stimuli button clears/resets the current stimulus settings. In case of applications having traffic generation, the Traffic start button or the Traffic stop button appears for each port.
