When AP’s engineers began designing the APx Series, they saw that a new platform was needed to maintain the innovation curve defined by the System One in 1984 and the System Two in 1992.
APx was designed from the ground up to allow engineers and production testers to get to work quickly and easily. From super-fast measurements to rich graphic reports and sharable project files, everything you need to test audio is available at the click of a mouse.
No other analyzer in the world is faster or easier to use.
One click measurements & automated sequences
- Use the Measurement Navigator to select a measurement, or select multiple measurements to create an automated sequence.
- AP’s patent-pending “continuous sweep” DSP technique calculates 14 measurements in 7 seconds from a single logarithmic sweep, then graphs results of each measurement for review in the Measurement Selector.
- Define limits or edit settings from their defaults, then click “Start” to run the tests.
- Analyze the results on screen: Select different views, change units, zoom in, adjust limits or cut and paste data into other applications.
- Measure Level, SNR, THD+N, Frequency Response, Burst, Phase, Distortion, Noise, Crosstalk, Phase, all with a mouse click.
Multichannel, real time signal monitors
- Use the Measurement Navigator to select a measurement, or select multiple measurements to create an automated sequence.
- FFT spectrum view up to one million points
- Real-time oscilloscope view
- Level, THD+N and frequency meter readings
- Monitors update continuously even while the APx performs other measurements
- Undock monitor, zoom, copy to clipboard, change units, all in real-time
Saveable, shareable Projects
- Save sequences, settings, limits, and signal paths in one project file.
- Guarantees the exact same test setup on all APx instruments so you can recreate test environments for any engineering or production group anywhere in the world.
Integrated reports for sharing results
- Automatically generate easy-to-understand reports displaying measurements, limit pass/fail, and test setup in rich color graphs and data tables.
- Customize reports with your logo and save as PDF for easy emailing or HTML, Excel, Rich Text Format and plain text for further analysis.
Multiple channel configurations
- 2, 4, 8 or 16 input channels and 2 or 8 output channels depending on your needs.
- Upgrade from 2 to 4 or 8 to 16 anytime.
- Measure across all channels simultaneously for faster, more accurate measurements than using a switcher.
Programming API
- Comprehensive control via API
- Control external instruments from within API
- Library of sample code for .NET, C# and LabVIEW.
