Flexus FX100 audio analysis system

The Flexus FX100 audio analysis system for research, design, audio service and production applications has a modular design allowing the system to be configured for a wide range of applications.

Performance specifications are paired with the latest technologies, such as fast sweeps, to make the analyser equally attractive for R&D as well as high-speed production testing applications.

The modular hardware allows customisation for two or four parallel channel operation. The impedance module supports speaker measurements for obtaining impedance plots and Thiele-Small parameters.

Individual input switcher and output switcher modules can extend the system to 14 input or 14 output channels connected simultaneously.

In addition, the supplied FX-Control software suite allows operation of several devices in parallel to enable cascaded system measurements.

For measurement speed optimisation, the analyser acquires all measurement functions in parallel. Technologies including fast glide sweeps (Farina sweep), detailed stepped sweeps and a continuous meter mode further support fast and accurate measurements.

The wide level range from 1 µV - 200 V paired with a typical THD+N of -104 dB enables comprehensive audio and acoustic analysis in R&D environments.

There is a wide frequency range from 5 Hz to 80 kHz and simultaneous measurement of the DC voltage, so detailed DC and audio frequency analysis within the same configuration can be provided.

The high-resolution FFT with 192 kHz sampling rate presents a detailed analysis of the audio frequency spectrum. FFT graph panels may be customised to display one or more traces simultaneously.

Detailed R&D measurements are supported with frequency, amplitude, time and table sweeps which may be triggered with internal or external signals.

The FX100 package includes software that provides access to all system features. The flexible architecture allows intuitive set-up of single, parallel or sequential measurement and individual configuration and result panels may be displayed on various worksheets.
