The RSA500 series instruments require a PC with Windows 7, Windows 8/8.1, or Windows 10, 64-bit operating system and a USB 3.0 connection. 8 GB RAM and 20 GB free drive space is required for installation of SignalVu-PC. For full performance of the real time features of the RSA500 , an Intel Core i7 4th generation processor is required. Processors of lower performance can be used, with reduced real-time performance. Storage of streaming data requires that the PC be equipped with a drive capable of streaming storage rates of 300 MB/sec.

Includes: USB 3.0 cable (2 M), A-A connection, screw lock, shoulder strap, carrying case (with room for unit, tablet, accessories), quick-start manual (printed), connector covers, WFM200BA Li-Ion rechargeable battery pack, WFM200BA Li-Ion battery pack instructions (printed), AC power adapter, power cord (see power plug options), USB memory device with SignalVu-PC, API and documentation files. A GPS antenna is not included with the instrument. See Accessories for available GPS antennas.
