DSI-110 System

 

1 kHz to 1.0 GHz

extendable to

 100 Hz and 18 GHz

 with converters

 

DATA

The DSI-110 integrates either the R-110 or R-110B Receiver with a sophisticated data acquisition and measurement software package and off-the-shelf computer hardware to yield a powerful and versatile RF measurement and reporting system. 
The DSI-110 is ideally suited to a wide variety of signal measurement tasks in either laboratory or field environments, including EMI/EMC testing, RF instrumentation, spectrum surveillance, and remote signal monitoring. 
The R-110 and R-110B receivers cover a wide frequency range (1 kHz to 1 GHz), permitting LF through UHF detection with a single receiver. Both receivers feature excellent noise figure and dynamic range characteristics, spur-free operation, and a large number of bandwidths to facilitate signal capture in the presence of high ambient noise. 
The system software operates in the Windows 3.1x environment; it is exceptionally flexible and easy to learn and use. The software is mature and is compatible with fixed and removable-cartridge disk drives, printers, plotters, and other peripherals. Various ancillary software routines are available which tailor the system to particular applications, such as frequency management and spectrum surveillance. 
The R-110 and R-110B receivers are designed to facilitate expansion, and both accept plug-in modules to enhance their inherent capabilities. The R-110B is fully augmented with wide-bandwidths, FM demodulator, pulse-stretch and slideback, DVM display, and bandwidths in a 1:2:5 sequence. Ancillary units provide panoramic display, frequency extension to 100 Hz and 18 GHz, and calibration with impulse and comb generators.
