Electronics rack
The electronics rack contains 10 TDT Zbus devices chassis, each containing two TDT series 3 devices. Furthermore it contains the Field coil amplifier and the Femto LockinAmplifier as part of the head tracking electronics. The zBus Monitor program has control functions for the optical bus. It shows all the connected zBus chassis and the TDT devices that are installed in each chassis. It also shows the version number of the installed firmware on the devices.
