Compact audio-analyzers from R&S do parallel measurements

Rohde & Schwarz has introduced a new family of audio analyzers developed especially for use in production. The R&S UPP200/400/800 analyzers are available in two-, four- or eight-channel versions. Multiple analyzers can be cascaded to test many analog measurement channels. Higher throughput in production of audio equipment is obtained due to the analyzers' ability to perform parallel measurements on all channels. The analyzers' compact size of only two height units saves space in the rack.

Audio analyzers enable manufacturers to carry out the tests required to measure the quality of the audio equipment they produce, including CD players, car radios, mobile phones and hearing aids. The R&S UPP200/400/800 (two/four/eight channels) from Rohde & Schwarz is an analyzer family in the medium price range. 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. As an alternative, one R&S UPP800 can be used to simultaneously test up to eight single-channel DUTs.

R&S UPV high-end audio analyzer users can run their programs on R&S UPP200/400/800 as both instruments have identical operation and remote control operations

The R&S UPP200/400/800 analyzers include a built-in computer, thus no external software is needed to control the analyzer. However, users can connect a monitor, keyboard and mouse. This audio analyzer comes without a GUI.
