The (RTA) Real Time Analyzer function of the IE-33 is replete with colorful and easy-to-use (and find) features and subfunctions. The displayed spectrum is 20 Hz to 20 kHz and shows frequency bars while user has option to also show bars with peak indicators, average curve, preferred (or "target") curve, and bars as LEDs providing the familiar dB/LED readout. Maximum Resolution (Max. Res.) is also shown with Peak and Decay curves.
Octave Display (1/1)-
Shows ten octave bars
One Third Octave Display (1/3) -
Shows thirty 1/3 octave bars
One Sixth Octave Display (1/6) -
Shows sixty 1/6 octave bars in the same spectrum as the other displays.
1/6 octave resolution can be helpful in revealing narrower or finer
frequency phenomena.
Max. Res. - The Maximum Resolution
display takes full advantage of the iPAQ screen resolution, resolving
2048 real data points to the 240 horizontal pixel resolution of
the iPAQ screen. Regardless of the screen resolution shown on the
iPAQ, the data are always captured (and stored) in Maximum Resolution.
LF Zoom - Low Frequency Zoom
focusses the Maximum Resolution display from 20Hz to 2kHz at a
1 Hz resolution in order to help identify ring modes, feedback
frequencies, standing waves and other LF phenomena.
(F)STC/NIC - Excellent feature
for consultants. Quick and accurate transmission loss measurements
in (F)STC, STC, (N)NIC, NIC. Take running or spot averages on both
sides of a barrier, then at the touch of a button (in Subtract
mode), display the plotted data and calculated Class number.
NC/NR - Quick and accurate
Noise Criteria or Noise Reduction measurements.
Average - By activating Average,
the user can automatically collect a continuing series of samples
which are then averaged to a single line of data points. The user
can also manually collect samples using Trigger mode. The Average
data can be saved to a file name, ported to a PC and further manipulated
or printed. The IE-33's method of averaging is easier and superior
than attempting to average individual stored memories.
Freq Detect -
Frequency Detection can be activated in the Max. Res. mode and
will allow the user to identify feedback frequencies, room ring
modes, and other sinusoidal anomalies. The Frequency Detection
function can be viewed in the Max. Res. real time curve, or the
Max. Res. decay curve.
Preferred Curve -
The Preferred Curve function allows the user to manually create
(or load from a stored file) a preferred or "target" curve which
presents itself as a screen overlay. Target curves can be used
for equalizing to a specific "desired house curve" or where any
specific, targeted end result is desired.
Memory Management - The
IE-33 has a very flexible Memory Management screen that allows
renaming, storing, loading, clearing and other memory management
functions. Scratch memories, preferred curve memories, curve
subtraction results, and peak value curves can be loaded, stored,
cleared and renamed with Memory Management. Virtually unlimited
storage memory.
