1.2 Introduction
This section provides a general overview of HP-01 Magnetometer - Field
Analyzer.
HP-01 is a magnetic DC and low frequency isotropic field probe-analyzer. It
provides an advanced technology solution for field analysis in the DC to 1
kHz frequency range in an extremely high dynamic range. It includes X, Y
and Z axes simultaneous measurements with a powerful, built in, spectrum
analyzer.
HP-01 can be used either connected to 8053B, NBM-550 portable field
meters or PC.
HP-01 includes a non volatile memory which stores frequency and level
calibration tables and an internal optical repeater which allows connection
to external devices through the optical fibre.
Spectral analysis, obtained through DSP (Digital Signal Processor), is
performed on different frequency Span values and displayed on the PC
monitor.
Marker function is available to provide accurate field strength and
frequency measurement.
HP-01 is managed internally with a microprocessor that controls all the
main functions, from the battery charging to the serial communication with
the DSP unit.
The Magnetic field is picked up by three sensors on the X, Y and Z
orthogonal axes. A Digital/Analog conversion follows which transforms the
signal into numeric information processed by a Digital Signal Processing
unit.
HP-01 is housed in a small cylindrical housing. The bottom side panel
includes an optical fibre connector, extension rod screw, battery charger
connector, ON/OFF button and Status LEDs.
The magnetic sensor system is composed by three Hall effect elements,
positioned orthogonal to each other.
