Headset Testers
For the aviation technician, a headset tester is the means of verifying that headsets, microphones, headphones, cables, and audio channels are in good order prior to their use in the shop or on an aircraft. With these instruments, one can assess everything from microphone output and signal quality to volume, distortion, and the routing of the left and right channels.
In the realm of aviation maintenance and comms testing, there is no room for ambiguity when it comes to clear audio. A tester will put an end to uncertainty by pinpointing the usual suspects: weak mics, wiring faults, channel imbalance, driver mismatches, damaged connectors, or anything else that might be degrading the frequency response. Certain units are capable of more than just a basic check; they allow for validation of the signal path and a review of the audio output so the technician can tell at a glance if the fault lies with the headset, the system, or the device it is attached to.
There is also more sophisticated equipment available for headphone and headset testing that can measure impedance, dynamic range, total harmonic distortion, and left/right tracking. Such data is essential to ensure the unit will hold up under the rigors of an aviation application, reproducing sound and capturing voice with precision.
