Rohde & Schwarz continues to develop its R&S ELEKTRA EMC test software by adding new measurement methods, adapting it to new standards and ensuring that users can carry out measurement tasks even more efficiently. R&S ELEKTRA now supports all current EMC standards in the commercial, automotive, wireless, military and aerospace sectors. The software provides interactive, partially and fully automated solutions for EMC measurements during development and for fully automated standard-compliant certification measurements.
R&S ELEKTRA from Rohde & Schwarz, the market leader in EMC test and measurement, is a comprehensive EMC test software family that is ideally suited to the powerful Rohde & Schwarz line of EMC test instruments and signal and spectrum analyzers. The solution supports all current standard-compliant emission, radiated and conducted EMS measurements, including EMS tests in reverberation chambers (RVC), the use of AWGN interference signals and the simultaneous use of multiple interference signals. Development departments and EMC test labs can use this software to ensure their test instruments achieve peak performance and to make their test processes more efficient through automation. This saves resources, time and therefore money.
Efficient user interface and hardware usage save time and costs
R&S ELEKTRA test software automates EMC tests and controls the entire EMC system. The user interface provides access to all the important functions for the test setup at a single level. An extensive library of preset measurements and standard-compliant test setups and test sequences can also be accessed directly using a keyword search function, making test configuration much simpler. The first measurement takes only a few minutes to set up. R&S ELEKTRA makes optimum use of the computer’s capacities and the instrument interfaces, saving an unprecedented amount of measurement time.
Monitoring for correct, reproducible EMC measurements
The software also monitors the plausibility of measurement parameters and stores all information relevant to the measurement along with the measurement results. This allows R&S ELEKTRA to ensure the reproducibility and comparability of measurements, preventing erroneous measurements.
Immediately after measurements are complete, laboratory staff can obtain comprehensive test reports with the reliably repeatable measurement results. R&S ELEKTRA has its own SQL database in which test reports and dedicated measurement data can be collected and stored. Measurement data can be forwarded through a standard interface of this database to ERP or CRM systems, for example, and analyzed there.
The R&S ELEKTRA EMC test software with new and improved functions is available now. R&S ELEKTRA is compatible with all Rohde & Schwarz EMC test equipment and provides interfaces to integrate almost all existing equipment in the lab. Rohde & Schwarz offers comprehensive training and support for the introductory and changeover phases.
