Keysight Introduces Smart Bench Essentials Connected Instruments

March 16 2021, 00:15
Keysight Technologies, the electronics test and measurement company that was spun off from Agilent in 2014, has launched a new portfolio of Smart Bench Essentials (SBE) lab bench instruments. These new solutions are targeted at remote access labs and teaching institutions that require a unified, powerful graphical interface with integrated data management and analysis, that can be configured, controlled, and monitored from a single screen, also allowing sharing instruments and data remotely with peers.
 

The new Keysight Smart Bench Essentials (SBE) lab bench products  deliver the power of four unique instruments, including a triple-output power supply, an arbitrary function generator, a digital multimeter and an oscilloscope, through one powerful graphical interface offering integrated data management and analysis capabilities. All four are reliable and capable instruments developed for the design and test of products in manufacturing and R&D, offering a compact and stackable design that is ideal for small manufacturing businesses.

Keysight’s PathWave BenchVue application software complements the Smart Bench Essentials series to configure instruments quickly, while operating on the same PC screen to test device under test. It stores data on a PC and exports it in standard readable formats for post-analysis work and report generation.

The Smart Bench Essentials series includes the optional PathWave Remote Access Lab software and the PathWave Lab Manager software to enhance the lab experience and productivity. Keysight’s PathWave Remote Access Lab software enables university teaching labs to transition to online learning seamlessly. It allows students to remotely access the lab setup and perform lab work through the web browser. Keysight’s PathWave Lab Manager software works seamlessly with the Smart Bench Essential series instruments to manage lab assets.

The Smart Bench Essentials series instruments are ideal for modern university teaching labs that require an enhanced environment conducive to sharing and maximizing learning. Remote learning technology is becoming the new norm accelerated by the recent Covid-19 pandemic. Most universities struggle to adapt to this new environment, seeking a blended learning experience with the right technologies.

With this announcement, Keysight delivers 4 unique instruments that combine a single graphical interface with integrated data management and analysis capabilities, ideal for small manufacturing businesses and modern university teaching labs, connected to the cloud.

"All four instruments have a consistent look and feel, the same graphical user interface and connectivity," says Christopher Cain, vice president of Electronic Industrial Products at Keysight Technologies. "The setup of four test instruments connected through the powerful PathWave application software allows engineers to focus on their insights and innovation, not managing their test instruments."
