Power Viewer Mobile 2

Rohde & Schwarz GmbH & Co. KG

About this app

With the new Power Viewer Mobile 2 App you are able to use all Rohde&Schwarz NRP series RF Power Sensor with your Android smartphone or tablet.
Requirements:
o R&S®NRP Power Sensor
o R&S®NRP-Zxx Power Sensor
o Device with Android 5.0 or higher
o USB-OTG adapter cable (If the sensors should be used via USB)
o Network connection with PoE (If Network Sensors should be used)

Optionally a USB hub can be used to connect more than one USB sensor to the Android device.

Supported Features:
o Continuous average mode
o Trace mode
o Up to four sensors simultaneously
o Support for Measurement over Network (with R&S®NRP-xxXN power sensors)
o Flexible user interface
o Extensive settings for the supported measurement modes

Important:
This app depends on a working USB host (USB – On The Go) controller built into your device. Some smartphones block high-power USB devices. In this case only the sensors with low supply power requirements will work, or the use of a self-powered USB hub is necessary.
The Trace Measure mode is only available with Sensors with support of this mode. If a Sensor doesn’t support this mode, nothing will be shown if switching to the Trace mode.

Warning:
Connecting an R&S®NRP power sensor to the USB port of your Android device will drain your battery regardless whether this app is active or not. Make sure to disconnect the power sensor whenever not in use.

Ratings and reviews

Great app, but would be even better if it could do relative power measurements.

a good app

This makes power readings very quick while allowing you to carry only a usb sensor and your phone. Could not be happier with the app.

What's new

Fixes activation and application of S-parameter devices.
Added a default trigger hysteresis of 0.5 dB to get more stable results in trace mode.
