Two Channel Audio Precision Analyzer Multifunctional APx515B Series

I/O OPTIONS

AES/SPDIF (B Series APx515 standard)
Provides AES3, AES/EBU balanced digital I/O on XLR; unbalanced SPDIF digital I/O on BNC; and TOSLINK optical digital I/O.

ASIO (B Series APx515 option)
Direct connection to ASIO-enabled devices. Supports up to 16 channels of ASIO at one time (with v4.0 software or later; two channels only when using earlier APx software versions). Requires either APX-SW-ASIO or one of the optional B Series APx515 software bundles (APX-SWB-2 or APX-SWB-6).

SOFTWARE OPTIONS

APx500 software options provide measurements and functionality beyond the core set of capabilities standard for the APx515. A variety of options are offered, suited to different specific test applications and requirements.

For B Series APx515 analyzers, and Legacy APx515 analyzers running version 5.0 software, software option licenses are electronically activated and are tied to a specific analyzer via serial number. For Legacy APx515 analyzers running APx software version 4.6 or earlier, software option licenses are enabled by one “iButtons” that mount on the rear of the instrument.

Electro-Acoustic Production Test (SW-SPK-PT)
The SW-SPK-PT option enables high-speed production test of electro-acoustic devices, providing key loudspeaker measurements in a single one-second sweep. Results include Rub & Buzz detection, essential Thiele-Small parameters, and impedance magnitude and phase. A proprietary modulated noise measurement is also provided to aid in detecting enclosure air leaks.

Electro-Acoustic R&D (SW-SPK-RD)
The SW-SPK-RD option delivers a complete suite of measurements and results tailored to the needs of designers and engineers developing electro-acoustic audio products. It includes key measurements and results such as complete Thiele-Small characterization; time-gated, quasi-anechoic Acoustic Response; Impedance analysis; plus the Loudspeaker Production Test measurements.

High-Speed Test (SW-HST)
SW-HST adds high-speed multitone and continuous sweep measurements to the APx515 B Series.

Advanced Measurement Library (SW-AML)
SW-AML is a library of 17 measurements to increase your B Series APx515’s capabilities, including the addition of IMD, Maximum Output Level, dynamic range, and FFTs.
