Using WT3 to Measure a Woofer's Parameters
The basic steps to measure a driver's parameters are as follows. Before starting, be sure the unit has
been calibrated.
•
Start by connecting the WT3 hardware unit to a USB port on your PC.
•
Next, launch the WT3 software.
•
Make sure that the woofer is not connected to any other equipment and then connect the test
leads of the WT3 unit to the terminals of the speaker under test.
• Raise the Windows volume control to maximum.
•
Click the "Measure Free Air Parameters" button at the left side of the WT3 screen.
•
You should hear the sweep from the speaker, the impedance is plotted and the parameters are
displayed.
•
Select a method to measure V(as), enter the required data and click on the "Measure V(as)"
button.
After measuring a speaker you may want to enter additional information (say, the manufacturer and
