Introduction Welcome to ANNA-LISA, DirectOut’s battery powered and mobile analyser and signal generator for MADI signals. ANNA-LISA provides a coaxial MADI I/O for standard BNC cabling and a fl exible SFP I/O to meet various connection standards by using SFP modules. Input signals are analysed (e.g. signal level, jitter, sample rate,...) and can be output or replaced by a generated signal (e.g.
CHAPTER 1: Overview Applications ANNA-LISA can be used in numerous applications where MADI connections are used. Both proper signal analysis and test signal generation serve the aim of solid operating conditions in MADI environments. Typical applications include: • ensuring stable signal connections •...
• Contact your DirectOut representative for exchanging the battery. • Do not expose the battery to temperatures below 0°C or higher than 45° C. • The battery is excluded from warranty claims. page 8 of 36 ANNA-LISA Manual - Version 1.1...
