3.1 Introduction - Getting Started
This chapter describes the manual operation of the R&S UPP audio analyzer. The
information in this chapter also largely applies to the instrument designed primarily for
use in systems provided that an external monitor, keyboard and mouse are connected
to the instrument. More detailed information on the operation via external keyboard and
mouse are explained in the
Chapter 4, "Manual Operation" , on page 112.
The R&S UPP audio analyzer is able to perform virtually all measurements occurring in
the audio world, from frequency response measurements through distortion factor and
spectral displays to the analysis of digital data streams. Several measurement func-
tions can be carried out and displayed at the same time, whereby the measurements
are performed perfectly simultaneously at all switched-on channels.
The R&S UPP performs all measurements using digital signal processing. Here, ana-
log signals to be measured are first subjected to complex preprocessing on analog
measurement modules before they are digitalized and fed to the digital measurement
routines.
This concept offers numerous advantages, for example:
●
The measurement methods at the analog and digital interfaces are identical.
●
The measurement functions are available at both the analog and the digital interfa-
ces.
●
Operation at the analog and digital interfaces is the same.
The many available options mean that the R&S UPP can be adapted to perform a wide
variety of different tasks. The basic version of the instrument has analog audio interfa-
ces. A number of special measurement functions are also available, but only after the
appropriate options have been installed (see the data sheet for details).
This chapter, "Getting Started", only describes the functions available in the basic ver-
sion of the R&S UPP audio analyzer.
