RBRquartz³ APT with Ethernet

At the time of order, you can request your RBRquartz³ APT wired for Ethernet and power. See the pinout diagram in the Specifications section.

You do not need to open the instrument to connect it to your network. Follow the steps below.

Deploying the RBRquartz³ APT

  1. Connect your terminal to the MINK or MCBH port located outside the instrument body using a compatible patch cable. The instrument will appear on your network.

  2. Connect to the control port (2323).

  3. Enter the question mark (“?”) command, terminated with linefeed, to display the network controller control menu.

    ------ RBRquartz3 APT NETWORK INTERFACE CONTROL MENU ------

 D: Display current settings
 S: Set NTP source
 R: Set NTP refresh rate
 J: Set the timestamp jump tolerance
 E: Set the transparent mode inactivity timeout
 T: Enter transparent mode
 !: Exit transparent mode (once in transparent mode)
 Q: Close this connection

 ?: Print this menu

  4. Enter “T” to enable the transparent mode.

  5. Enter “clock” to reset the instrument clock if necessary.

  6. Enter deployment parameters, for example:

    deployment starttime = 20000101000000, endtime = 20991231235959
sampling mode = continuous, period = 63

  7. Erase the memory and start the deployment.

    enable erasememory = true
