Airwavz.tv TvXplorer™
For ATSC 3.0 signal test, measurement and monitoring, UniSoft offers the Airwavz.tv TvXplorer™ Suite. The software runs on Windows 10 and 11 machines and is supplied with the RedZone Receiver ("RZR").
The RZR is a compact USB device which contains a tuner capable to receiving ATSC 1.0 and 3.0 signals.
TvXplorer can be run on a laptop or server depending on your requirements. For broadcasters and system integrators, TvXplorer is particularly useful as it provides a cost effective and convenient method for monitoring all ATSC 3.0 services.
The Redzone Receiver also comes with a Software Development Kit which allows reception of ATSC 1.0 and 3.0 services on Ubuntu-based systems. The Classroom Gateway receiver, used by UniSoft's remote learning solution, uses a combination of the RZR and S&T's ATSCReceiver software installed on an Intel NUC PC running Ubuntu 18.04.
