Automated Testing of Advanced, High-Performance, Point-to-Multipoint Radio Systems Using National Instruments Software and PXI Hardware Print E-mail

"NI hardware and software platforms provided the capability and flexibility to support this critical development by helping us efficiently develop a highly reliable test system that met all of the client requirements and a tight product release schedule."

– Stephen Patterson, CPE Systems

The Challenge:
Designing and developing a cost-effective test system that has component and unpowered testing, device programming, radio signal analysis and calibration, and no operator intervention for production testing of an advanced, high-performance, point-to-multipoint radio product used for remote Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) network applications.

The Solution:
Creating a test system based on the NI PXI platform and NI LabVIEW, NI TestStand, and NI Switch Executive software to connect to the unit under test (UUT) using a pneumatic test fixture, including custom RF screening for the RF sections to provide a high-performance RF test solution.
