Qualify and validate NB-IOT / LTE-M network coverage.

 Scan all the networks present of the various operators within range of the tester, and make a quick initial assessment of their performance. Test NB-IoT and/or LTE-M network coverage anywhere in the world, with any single or multi-operator nano-SIM card. Qualify network coverage at different locations and view network quality indicators for each measurement point.

Geolocate each measurement point automatically and view the values on Google Maps or on your building plans. https://www.saelig.com/MFR00007/arf8393aaa.htm

Is PicoScope better than an oscilloscope?

Of course, a PicoScope is an oscilloscope.  But maybe the question is: Is a PicoScope better than a benchtop scope.


Whether a PicoScope is "better" than a benchtop oscilloscope depends on the specific needs of the user, as both have their advantages. PicoScopes, being PC-based, offer portability and often a lower cost, while benchtop scopes provide a dedicated, often more robust, hardware interface. 
PicoScope Advantages:
  • Portability:
    PicoScopes are compact and USB-powered, making them ideal for on-the-go testing and situations where bench space is limited. 
     
    Large Display:They utilize the computer's display, offering a larger and higher-resolution viewing area than most benchtop scopes. 
     
    Advanced Analysis: PicoScope software provides advanced features like FFT spectrum analysis, serial decoding, and mathematical functions that can be more powerful than those found in many benchtop models. 
     
    Cost: They can be more affordable, especially when considering the cost of a large display and advanced features in benchtop models. 
     
    Software Updates: PicoScope software is frequently updated with new features and protocols, ensuring your scope stays current. 
     
    Flexibility: PicoScope's software can be installed on multiple computers, allowing for offline analysis and collaboration. 
    Benchtop Oscilloscope Advantages:
    Dedicated Hardware Interface: Benchtop scopes offer a physical interface with dedicated buttons and knobs, which some users find more intuitive and responsive for certain tasks. 
     
    Robustness and Reliability: Benchtop scopes are often built with a focus on durability and long-term reliability, making them suitable for demanding environments. 
     
    Specialized Features: Some benchtop scopes may have specialized features or higher bandwidths that may not typically found in PicoScopes. 
     
    Ease of Use: For some users, the dedicated hardware interface of a benchtop scope can be easier to learn and use, especially for those who are less comfortable with computer-based interfaces. 
    In Summary:  If portability, advanced software features, and cost are priorities, a PicoScope is a strong contender, especially with its versatile PC interface.  If a dedicated standalone instrument, robustness, and specialized features are essential, a benchtop scope might be a better fit.
