ANN: HpW Works V3.0 PC based Measurement System
HpW is proud to announce the new version 3.0 of the unique
FFT-based analysis software HpW Works. The new release includes an
improved lookout and several new display options, like Real Time FFT,
THD, THD+N, Dynamic range (DR), SNR and level calculations, phase view,
min/max band view, which can be displayed on each FFT. The analysis
data showing more detailed information is presented on a separate
data window. Using dual channels, the phase relationship is also shown.
Analyzing signals, in the labor, development or music studio is the
target use of HpW Works. HpW delivers high-end measurement for an
astonishing low price. The full system includes a FFT-software plus
signal generator, operating with any PC sound card or digital I/O hardware.
For the input and output section various add-on modules are available:
- MS Windows MMS wave devices :
Stereo 16/20/24 bit, mono dual speed
and special mono using stereo channels (20,24,28,32 bit),
- Text files (ASCII : integer or float)
- Wave files (16 / 24 / 32 bit and float type 3).
The FFT analyzer uses 64 bit resolution internally and supports up to
16 million sample points.
The wave generator delivers various signals:
sine (coherent / non-coherent), various harmonic's (1-64),
multi waves (1-512), static signal (DC), IM signals,
jitter test signal (fs/4 or fs/8 with LSB toggle),
test sequences and various noise signals. Additional any wave file
sequence can be loaded into the generator and played in an infinite
loop. Several global options like dither, channel muting and inverting
are also available (Stereo 16/20/24 bit, mono dual speed
and special mono using stereo channels (20,24,28,32 bit)).
