The MPS1000 is a family of WAN/LAN data communications servers that are attached to a local area network to provide wide-area connectivity. A single MPS1000 communications server can support a number of WAN protocols, each of which can be accessed simultaneously by multiple clients. The MPS1000 provides two 10/100 Ethernet ports and has options for 4, 8, or 16 high-speed WAN serial ports. This makes the MPS1000 an ideal and intelligent WAN/LAN bridge, a WAN/LAN gateway device, or a remote WAN connectivity server. By using the MPS1000 as an SNMP management device, any computer and/or workstation equipped with TCP/IP on the LAN can access information from the communications server.

The MPS1000 is designed to preserve the user’s software investment by enabling applications to be moved to any of PT’s WAN products. Its modular design supports virtually any serial communications protocol.

A critical part of the radar/sensor network is ensuring the data, regardless of its specific format, be properly received from remote radar and sensing sites for processing and viewing at other locations. Additionally, it is also highly desirable for equipment used in radar networks to provide such features as data record, playback, protocol conversion, and time stamping.

The MPR2000 System provides users with a solution that offers all of these capabilities while also providing the ability to easily transport the radar or sensor data received on the serial ports over IP networks to one or more simultaneous end points at remote locations for further analysis. Additionally, the MPR2000 provides the ability to add application blades such that data analysis can be done within the MPR2000 itself.

The Data Record feature provides the ability to store received data as raw (idles, sync, flags’ and CRC) or in payload form, time stamps can also be included in the captured data. The capture time window and length of time to keep the data can be easily specified by the user through the system configuration interface.

The MPR2000 Data Playback feature allows the user to view the previously captured data as a source for analysis or transmission to other locations. Multiple playbacks can be simultaneously running with the playback data for each playback request being distributed to a specified link on the MPR2000 System and/or user application connection. The playback can also be configured to send the file data to all destinations in real time, slowed down, or sped up.
