The DaySequerra M2.0X HD Radio™ Modulation Monitor meets the demands of the professional broadcast market and delivers the highest quality, most accurate monitoring of HD Radio™ AM and FM broadcast signals. Its ultra-low noise RF front end with built-in preselector and double-balanced mixer provides benchmark sensitivity of 5.0dBf for FM broadcasts.
The M2.0X contains an over-sampled digital-to-analog converter and Class-A biased audio outputs to give you the highest fidelity demodulation of HD Radio™ programs. The VFD (vacuum florescent display) show PSD (Program Specific Data) and SIS (Station Information Services) for HD-1 through HD-8 Multicast signals.
High Resolution Displays
The demodulated audio multi-color LED meter displays Left and Right or L+R and L-R demodulated program audio. The display is peak responding between +10dB and -30dB, and average responding between -30dB and -64dB.
The high-resolution 58-segment multi-color LED carrier modulation meter can display positive peaks only, negative peaks only, or both simultaneously from 46% to 125% with a 5% resolution full range and a 1% resolution between 80% and 105%. Measurement integration time is user programmable at 0.1ms, 0.2ms, 0.5ms, or 1.0 ms.
