Sine tests apply either a single frequency or sweep
for the operator to evaluate a unit's distortion. It can also apply a single frequency so
NWin can measure the unit's output level.
Prompt
- The text specified is presented to the operator at the test end in the form
'Prompt (Y/N)?'. Whether 'Y' or 'N' is a pass is set by Yes/No
on the main test window. We
have found that on the whole operators are less intimidated if asked to
confirm a unit
isn't a bad one rather than affirm it's a good
one. Whilst waiting for the operator's response NaTKiT will continue to apply whatever is the last tone of the test.
Measure
- When set only the Low
(Hz) frequency and NWin, not
the operator, decides pass or fail by measuring the input and applying it to the
High Limit (dB)
and lower limits.
High
Limit (dB) - The upper limit and can be set in the range
0 - (Low
Limit (dB) + 1) dB.
Low
Limit (dB) - The upper limit and can be set in the range
-99 - (High
Limit (dB) - 1) dB.
To help set
High Limit (dB)
and Low Limit (dB)
when Run
is clicked NWin makes and displays six measurements helping the Engineer determine if the test
is stable or being affected by noise.
