Key Additions Include:   

  • New grey panels and buttons.
  • New labels and chassis’.
  • New lithium-ion batteries and charger circuit upgrades (sub PCB fitted). See lithium-ion upgrade page for further information.
  • D-type connectors (instead of DINs) provided for RS232/printer connection (sub PCB fitted).
  • Toggle switch added to the LA101 allowing easy selection of floating or centre grounded operation. Floating the oscillator allows testing of paths where DC is present (e.g. phantom powered microphone inputs). The oscillator will float up to the DC level and superimpose its AC output on top of the DC.
  • Full re-calibration and electrical safety testing.
  • Latest firmware V6.7.
  • Supplied with a new manual, two RS232 leads and a Windows 10 compatible USB to serial convertor

The Upgrade process:   

Both units are stripped down to their individual components, cleaned, modified and then re-assembled using the new parts. Sub-PCBs are fitted to both top boards to provide the charging circuitry for the lithium-ion batteries and to provide the D-type connections. The toggle switch is fitted to the LA101’s bottom board.

  • UPGSILVER3: As UPGSILVER, but without the lithium ion battery upgrades.
