SWR-Analyser WaveNode

The new WN-2 power meter measures and displays output power or SWR of up to four radios/antennas at the same time.

Up to four sensors for power/SWR can be connected to the device and can be installed at the point where they are rquired; sensors are available for 1.6 to 470MHz and up to max. 8KW.

The measured data is displayed on a computer connected via USB. The required software for Windows XP or Windows Vista is included.

When operating standalone the data is shown on the internal LC display. So a computer is not required, but of course would give a much better overview.

The WN-2 measures spectrum and envelope of the transmitted signal up to 20kHz modulation bandwidth. Intermod, splatter or overmodulation can be seen immediately. The required fast sampling rate of the transmitted signal is achieved by using a fast RISC processor in the sensor.

Additionally the WN-2 offers four analog (0 to 10V) and four digital (TTL) inputs for many measurement tasks. A programmable solenoid output offers the possibility to emergency shut-down, for example in the case of high SWR. Another option is the board to control two Yaesu rotators.

The device is shipped including one HF 2kW sensor, CD-ROM, USB cable and power supply.

WaveNode uses your PC's computing power to provide the Amateur Radio operator and and emergency communications stations with the precision RF Power, SWR, and DC measurement on four remote sensors. Easy setup and operation. Graphical presentation of data is intuitive and powerful.  

• Multi-sensor RF/DC power and SWR display with graphics you can control.
• Observe peak and average forward/reflected power and SWR simultaneously on four remote sensors.
• Sensors available for 160-6m and 140-470MHz.
• Provides Audio/Voice announcement of RF Power and SWR with single keystrokes. Also provides audio and visual announcement of SWR alarm, and voice announcement when user resets the SWR Alarm.
• Screens are user-customized to label each meter, allowing instant identification of what each sensor is monitoring.
• Precision sensors run simultaneously and never need re-calibration.
• DC power voltage/current monitoring includes elapsed supply current.
• Add additional sensors at any time, confident in precise measurements.
• Multi-channel SWR graphing with easy-to-use, intuitive graphics.
• SWR monitoring with protection relay included.
• Additional user analog monitor inputs, and user defined TTL outputs, for remote operation of equipment.
• All sensors are factory aligned and calibrated, you add sensors as you need them.
• System data including: amplifier gain, power histograms, and linearity are easily viewed.
