3.1 Introduction - Getting Started
This chapter describes the manual operation of the R&S UPV audio analyzer. The
information in this chapter also largely applies analogously to the R&S UPV66(which
was primarily designed for system use) provided that an external monitor, keyboard,
and mouse are connected to the instrument. For more detailed information on the
operation via external keyboard and mouse, see
The R&S UPV 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 UPV 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 UPV 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 UPV audio analyzer.
