Overview
The VIAVI MAP-380 is the eight-slot mainframe of the third-generation Multiple Application Platform (MAP-300) Series, an optical test and measurement platform for the development and manufacturing of optical communications technology. Each MAP-380 mainframe consists of a 3U, 19-inch chassis that holds up to eight cassettes plus a field-replaceable controller. It is offered in benchtop, rackmount and reverse-rackmount configurations; the reverse-rackmount version, with rear module entry, is available only for the eight-slot chassis.
The MAP-300 Series builds on the original MAP system first released in 2001. It remains backward compatible with MAP2xx series cassettes and with existing remote-control automation, and it accepts current and legacy -C1, -C2 and -B1 modules from the LightDirect and LightTest families. Modules are hot swappable.
User interface
The controller has an integrated 3.5-inch LCD touchscreen for network and system status. Through an HTML-based graphical user interface, the mainframe can be operated locally or remotely over Ethernet from a supported web browser, and several users can work with it at once. The dashboard shows one widget per slot to identify each installed cassette and give access to its main settings. An optional 15.6-inch touchscreen can be connected to the MAP-380 by USB cable; unlike on the MAP-330, it does not dock to the chassis.
Automation and asset management
All module and platform commands follow the SCPI command language. Remote programming is supported via TCP/IP (LXI) over Ethernet, GPIB and direct socket. The IVI drivers work with LabVIEW, LabWindows, Visual C++ and Visual Basic and include a simulation mode for offline development. Up to two field-installable plug-in modules add GPIB and LXI trigger ports. The MAP Control Center (MAPcc) asset management tool lists mainframes and cassettes, retrieves IP addresses, firmware versions and serial numbers, and upgrades several mainframes at once.
