HAMGEEK SSA6G 35MHz-6200MHz RF Spectrum Analyzer RF Multimeter Spectrum Explorer + HT6 Log Periodic Antenna

Description:
HAMGEEK SSA6G is a portable panoramic spectrum analyzer designed to display signal spectrum in the frequency range from 35MHz to 6200MHz. The analyzer finds the amplitude and frequency of spectral components of the analyzed process.

HAMGEEK spectrum analyzer is able to find the signal amplitude for all widely used technologies: including Wi-Fi, 2G, 3G, 4G, LTE, CDMA, DCS, GSM, GPRS and GLONASS.

Application:
HAMGEEK SSA6G is primarily intended for field operation. The device is rugged and light with low energy consumption. It enables service centers and maintenance teams to perform on-the-spot HF analysis for commissioning and repair works. Moreover, the spectrum analyzer is a perfect solution for repair workshops and radio amateurs.

For example, using the device you can perform the following operations:
* Put an external antenna on the base station
* To conduct a rapid analysis of RF environments
* Check the correct operation of the repeater cellular

Principle of Operation:
The spectrum analyzer is a portable device which is connected to the measured circuit and has an independent power supply. The device has a 3.2" color resistive touch screen to display the signal spectrum and to control the device.

The device is controlled by one of these three ways:
* By buttons and touchscreen on the device
* By a smartphone or tablet for Android
* By a PC or laptop with operating system for Windows

The data between the analyzer and smartphone/tablet/PC is transmitted through Bluetooth or USB-cable. The Bluetooth range is up to 10m (Password for connecting via Bluetooth: 1234). All the measured data is displayed in real time on the screen of the device or smartphone/tablet/PC. You can install the analyzer software to control by smartphone or tablet from the Google Play or download from other sources.

You can download the analyzer software to control by PC or laptop. Windows 7 or higher and the latest version of Java Virtual Machine are required for the correct work of application. The application requires full (100%) support for OpenGL version 2.1 and higher.

API:
There is a possibility of device control using API. You can send the device a command to make a measurement (scanning range) with the following parameters:
* start frequency
* stop frequency
* measuring step
* the value of the attenuator

After the command completes, HAMGEEK SSA6G will send the client device  (microcontroller, computer, mobile device, etc.) a message containing the measured values of the amplitudes for the given frequency values. Users can record the received data to a file, database, etc.

Using this API users can customize automatic measurements and use the spectrum analyzer HAMGEEK SSA6G in their system. The API works in any programming language that supports work with input-output ports (Java, C, C++, C#, Python, Assembler, etc.).

Basic functions of the analyzer software:
* Displays the signal spectrum graphically and sets up the frequency range and reference limit.
* Sets up and manages absolute and relative (delta) markers.
* Searches one or a series (up to ten) of maximum values of the signal in the instantaneous or tracking mode.
* Sets and stores unique identifiers of the frequency ranges - bands. For instance, a band titled DCS UpLink can be set for the range 1710-1785 MHz. Additionally, working frequency bands can be set for each operator. This option considerably facilitates the HF analysis and identification for the signals of conventional technologies.
* Has preset bands and is able to store the bands in a file and share them with other devices to control the spectrum analyzer HAMGEEK SSA6G.
* Has the tracing mode that generates a signal spectrum averaged by a number of measurements. In addition to the average spectrum, extreme values and moving average values can be displayed as well.
* Stores the settings for the spectrum scanning (band limits, attenuator value and others) for a quick and easy switching into the required measurement mode.
* Stores the spectrum signal with markers for later analysis. Then the stored graph can be opened in any device for Android with an application (in this event you don't need to have the spectrum analyzer at hand) or use the table editor to convert the graph into the required type of data display.

Items not included in the box:
* Smartphone or tablet for Android's 4.0.3 control or higher. Use your device for Android in order to control the equipment. The device is implemented in one body, while the equipment for its control is built in another. It has been done in order to make the spectrum analyzer much simpler and more available. Also, use your laptop or computer to control the device.
* External attenuation network. The maximum measured input power, which is supplied to the device, is limited by +5 dBm. If it is necessary to measure a larger value, each user of the device has to select the necessary attenuators on his/her own.
* Set of the super-high frequency adapters.

Limitations:
The spectrum analyzer HAMGEEK SSA6G is not a measurement gauge, as it does not have an approved pattern of the measuring equipment. The approval of pattern of the measuring equipment has had a negative effect on the availability and price of the device. For this reason the spectrum analyzer is officially considered a field indicator. However, the device fully meets all technical requirements. Each device is calibrated against the power and frequency.

Additional Information:
* Essentially, the device is "radio frequency multimeter" or "radio frequency explorer".
* The device is not for iPhones and other Apple products.
* Frequency bands are displayed only when it is working with devices for Android or Windows. Frequency bands are not displayed on the screen of the device itself.
* For the correct operation of the software for Windows need to have the OpenGl support of your equipment (version 2.1 and higher).
