The new power meter generation with modern and intuitive user interface

The R&S®NRX simultaneously supports up to four R&S power sensors and displays the results clear on the flexible configurable screen. The user interface with the touch screen based operating concept simplifies the operation. In addition function keys on the front panel provide quick access to the most important functions.

Features & benefits

Intuitive operation with touch screen based GU

Straightforward numerical and graphical display of measured values, plus intuitive operation

The 5" TFT color display supports the intuitive, window based operating concept. Key parameters andfunctions are color-coded and can be seen at a glance. Results are presented in numerical and graphicaldisplay windows that can be easily configured. Function keys on the front panel provide quick access tothe most important functions. Users can open the freguency setting menu or zero the connectedsensors at the push of a button.

Up to four measurement channels

The R&S®NRX simultaneously supports up to four power sensors of the R&SeNRP family andR&SeNRO6.

The R&SeNRX standard configuration includes one measurement channel. The base unit can beoptionally expanded to two or four measurement channels. In the continuous average, burst averagetimeslot and time gate average measurement modes, up to four numerical results can be displaved inparallel. Calculated values as ratio, SWR, return loss and reflection coefficient can be displaved inaddition to the absolute and relative power level.

Automatic pulse analysis

Results without the need of manual calculations

All R&SeNRP-Z8x wideband power sensors allow automatic pulse analysis. Up to 12 of 18 user-selectedpulse parameters can be displayed in addition to the measurement trace.

Sensor check source

High precision sensor verification in a module

An optional high-precision 50 MHz/1 GHz reference source module (R&SeNRX-B1 sensor check sourcecan be used in CW mode to check the function of all R&SeNRP power sensors. In pulse mode. the testgenerator can be used to check the pulse measurement performance of the R&SeNRP-Z8x widebandpower sensors or the R&SeNRQ frequency selective power sensor.

Power reflection measurements

Directional power meter measures forward and reflection power between source and load

The R&SeNRX optionally provides the R&SeNRX-B9 interface for the R&SeNRT2 directional powersensors. The R&S@NRX supports all the measurement functions of the R&SeNRT-Zxx directional powersensors as the R&SeNRT2 power reflection meter. The large, user-friendly touchscreen simultaneouslydisplavs the forward and reverse power.

Flexible interfacing

Interfaces for sensors, remote control, triggering and analog output

The R&SeNRX provides three diferent remote interfaces for integration in automated test setups.Ethernet, USB and optionally GPlB (R&SeNRX-B8). A trigger input on the rear panel permits externaltriggering for synchronized power measurements. A level-proportional voltage or a digital signal for limitmonitoring can be output via BNC connectors.
