mAT-tuner - mAT-S1500
The mAT-S1500 is designed as an accurate instrument for monitoring station performance. It uses two RF specific measurement chips, which can accurately measure the power and SWR of the RF system, but cannot display information such as spectrum and impedance.
The mAT-S1500 features a 4.3" diagonal TFT color display screen that displays the current RF power and SWR using bar and digital displays.
This mAT-S1500 is equipped with two high capacity 18650 lithium batteries, which can operate without the need for additional power supply.
By using the TYPE-C charging socket, users can easily use their phone charger to charge it. The charger is not an accessory to this instrument, and the user needs to prepare it themselves.
The mAT-S1500 is an automated instrument that is very easy to use. It only has one power switch and can automatically set the range based on the input RF signal. It can also automatically set the color of the screen background based on the brightness of the ambient light, helping users to better see the display.
The shell of the mAT-S1500 is made using aluminum milling technology, which makes it very delicate and sturdy.
There is an indicator light on the left side of the charging socket, which will be illuminated during charging. After the battery is fully charged, this indicator light goes out. On the left side of this indicator light is an ambient light sensor.
The mAT-S1500 will automatically set the color of the screen background based on the light perceived by this sensor, making the display screen easier to read.
Please note that the mAT-S1500 doesn't measure peak power. mAT-tuner choose to use expensive specialized measurement IC's instead of diodes. The disadvantage of this choice is that it cannot measure peak power, but it ensures a very accurate measurement of the SWR. The nonlinear characteristics of diodes can result in significant measurement errors.
