Data Logging Capability
To enhance system maintainability, the LPOD-R includes a built-in data logging
capability. By recording critical operational parameters such as temperature,
output power, mute status, etc. at time stamped intervals, you can quickly
gather intelligence about not only the unit itself but also the unit’s operational
environment.
1.3.3.3
Hand-Held Controller Devices
The LPOD-R accommodates a variety of hand-held controller devices. These
include the LPOD
net
M&C Accessory Kit and the CLC-10 M&C Accessory Kit. Both
are designed to access the monitor and control functionality of the LPOD-R.
