Integrating all the necessary features for station setup, regulatory compliance, and remote monitoring, Inovonics' 552 HD Radio Modulation Monitor is the ideal choice for advanced FM and HD Radio signal monitoring. Simultaneously monitor in real time the off-air FM modulation along with up to 4 HD Radio Channels.
The 552 collects a history of signal parameters and displays HD Radio™ album artwork, station logos and similar visuals on the remote Web interface. The 552 includes a built-in BandScanner™, a real-time clock and full SNMP functionality
Rear-panel alarms constantly check for Audio Loss, RF Loss, Multipath and Overmodulation, while advanced notifications alert personnel with e-mail or SMS messaging when any or all of the alarms occur. SNMP is fully supported.
