Shown at NAMM 2024, and distributed by measurement microphone specialists iSEMcon US, the second-generation LAP-TEQ PLUS Inclinometer is designed to measure the inclination of a line array or a loudspeaker cluster, quickly and with high accuracy. Manufactured by TEQSAS, the LAP-TEQ system consists of two components: The LAP-TEQ PLUS sensor module (measuring unit) and the compact, handheld LAP-TEQ PLUS display module (reading unit).
The LAP-TEQ PLUS sensor is an angle sensor in a small and lightweight housing. The sensor is intended for mounting on flying frames or bumpers of loudspeaker systems (line arrays) and measures the vertical alignment angle there. The sensor has a green laser in cross optics, which is aligned in the radiation direction of the loudspeaker. This makes it possible to visually identify where, for example, the top element of a line array loudspeaker system hits in terms of acoustics.
LAP-TEQ PLUS is compatible with manufacturers including Coda Audio, L-Acoustics, d&b audiotechnik, TW Audio, Voice Acoustic, DB Technologies, Harmonic Design and Meyer Sound. A universal-fit LAP-TEQ Mounting Bracket accessory is available for speaker systems from other manufacturers or custom designs.
After mounting the LAP-TEQ PLUS sensor, the data is sent via a normal XLR 3-pin XLR cable to a device with an available LAP-TEQ PORT, such as the LAP-TEQ PLUS display. The LAP-TEQ PLUS display shows the sensor data of the respective LAP-TEQ PLUS sensors, to indicate the orientation of the LAP-TEQ PLUS sensor to the nearest degree according to the current vertical angle.
The LAP-TEQ PLUS display has a 1.8-inch color TFT and two buttons for operation and menu navigation. Power is supplied via the built-in rechargeable battery. This is charged via the USB port.
