UPP audio analyser range
1 min read
Rohde & Schwarz is introducing a new family of audio analysers developed especially for use in production. The R&S UPP200/400/800 analysers are available in two, four or eight channel versions. According to Rohde & Schwarz, multiple analysers can be cascaded to test up to 48 analogue measurement channels.
Due to the analysers' capability to perform parallel measurements on all channels, manufacturers of audio equipment of any type can achieve higher throughput in production. The analysers' size of two height units is designed to save space in the rack.
The R&S UPP200/400/800 (two/four/eight channels) is an analyser family in the medium price range and, depending on the requirements, up to five slave instruments can be connected to a master via cascading. This system operates like a measuring instrument with a maximum of 48 channels. All the channels of a 16 channel sound system, for example, can be measured in a single step if two eight channel analysers are connected. As an alternative, one R&S UPP800 can be used to simultaneously test up to eight single channel DUTs, which is highly efficient and speeds up production.
The analysers include a built in computer, while all operations run in the base unit and the controller of the test system does not need to be equipped with software to control the analyser.
The audio analyser comes without a graphical user interface. However, users can connect a monitor, keyboard and mouse to create a standalone instrument with an excellent price/performance ratio.
