The size a hand-held instrument should be ! Actual size* * when printed without scaling Ruggedised casing See more detail The casing of the PSA Series 5 includes rubberised buffers top and bottom to help resist knocks and scratches. The large TFT display of the PSA Series 5 shows a wealth of information. It makes use of colour to clearly distinguish the traces (live, view and reference) from the markers, limit lines and graticule.

Typical ‘hand-held’ spectrum analyzer 26 cm x 17 cm, weight >2kg Some of these are more than twice the width of an average hand, and weigh as much as a brick. Not so the PSA Series 5.
Packed with features Live, View and Reference traces Intuitive menu system Ease of use was a major consideration in the design of the PSA Series 5. The menu system provides rapid access to five menu groups, each of which has up to five sub menus, each with their own function keys. A view trace and reference trace can be displayed in addition to the live trace using contrasting colours for clarity. Any number of traces can be saved to memory and rapidly recalled to the screen.
PSA-Manager Software Trace write modes In addition to the normal mode, the trace can be set to display Peak-hold, or a Multisweep Average. PSA Manager is a Windows* based program that provides additional capabilities for the PSA Series 5. It is available free of charge. When in Peak-hold or Average modes, dual display traces can be selected enabling the processed and unprocessed traces to be seen simultaneously.
