BASIC commands can then be used to
modify the program, eg for branching
or graphic outputs.
Complete application programs based
on the universal sequence controller
are available for measurements on CD
players, tuners, etc.
The universal sequence controller can
also be used for remote control of exter-
nal equipment via the IEC/IEEE-bus or
the RS-232-C interface. Moreover, pro-
grams generated on UPL can be trans-
ferred to an external controller after
slight modifications for the remote con-
trol of UPL. This greatly facilitates the
generation of remote-control programs.
High measurement speed, two-channel
measurements and remote-control
capability via the IEC/IEEE bus are a
must in production systems. The long
calibration intervals of UPL make for
high availability and reduce running
costs
Test assemblies for electroacoustic converters frequently consist
of microphones and loudspeakers, whose frequency response
must be compensated. The equalizer function of UPL furnishes
tailor-made solutions for such tests. Comprehensive test routines
can be implemented with the aid of the universal sequence
controller
• Remote-control capability via the
IEC/IEEE bus is a must in large-scale
production systems. In the design of
Audio Analyzer UPL, special impor-
tance was attached to data transfer
via the IEC/IEEE bus. The logging
mode can be used to speed up the
generation of control programs for
the IEC/IEEE bus. With the program
generator provided in UPL-B10, it is
no longer necessary to look up IEC/
IEEE-bus commands
Universal Sequence Controller
UPL-B10
allows measurement sequences to be
generated and executed, thus turning
UPL into an automatic test system. Pro-
gramming of measurement sequences
is greatly facilitated by the built-in
program generator:
Each manual control step is recorded
in the logging mode and translated
into a complete line of the sequence
program with correct syntax, ie test
sequences can be programmed with-
out a single line to be typed by the
user. The program thus generated
does not just give the sequence of keys
to be pressed but contains the instruc-
tions in easy-to-read IEC/IEEE-bus
syntax according to SCPI.
