NEXUS STAR Features

Test-tone Generator

Each Base Device on the NEXUS system includes a test-tone generator that can be applied to all analogue inputs via a separate bus. The generator signal is also fed to an additional digital bus.

signalgeneratorThe following settings can be made by the user:

  • Level: -34 to 6 dBu (direct access, adjustable in 1-dB steps)
  • Frequency: 20 Hz to 20 KHz (adjustable in 1-Hz steps) plus typical fixed frequencies
  • Shape: The generator can also be used as a noise generator offering the choice of white and pink noise as well a sine wave.

The test-tone generator can be used for calibrating installations or rooms as well as for troubleshooting purposes. The generator produces a standard-level signal for calibrating or comparing input signals. In addition, it generates an internal signal that can be used for troubleshooting the NEXUS system or verifying the settings.

The generator employs a sophisticated structure (digital generator, D/A converter, analogue generator bus, extra digital bus), with the critical A/D-converter components integrated into the signal path.
