Access, Setup, and Control Lab Instruments from Anywhere
Four Test Instruments — One Connected Interface
Keysight Smart Bench Essentials (SBE) harnesses the power of four unique test instruments — a digital multimeter (DMM), power supply, function generator, and oscilloscope — through one powerful graphical interface with integrated data management and analysis. Together with Keysight PathWave test software, you can now:
- configure, control, and monitor multiple bench instruments from a single screen
- automate workflows from test set up to report generation
- access lab instruments remotely with your peers, to test, analyze, and share
- manage an entire lab through a single-screen interface
Manage and Enable Lab Access from Anywhere
PathWave Remote Lab Access and Lab Management software applications provide a complete remote setup of your basic electronic test equipment with web-based lab management and scheduling administration, instrument control, and remote access for measurement and analysis, including:
- secure cloud-based remote lab scheduling and session booking
- centralized lab configuration, multi-bench lab setup, and instrument control
- remotely switch measurement points during a lab session

“I put myself in the student case where they walk up and use their intuition and twist the knobs, and by and large, I was able to find what I needed to do. There is a lot of capability in these devices for this price point. I can easily pay that for just one oscilloscope.”
Scott Koziol, Engineering Professor, Baylor University

“Some of the instruments had displays that were thoughtful and comprehensive, and those displays would make teaching easier.”
Matthew Spencer, Associate Professor of Engineering, Harvey Mudd College

“They all match so nicely. It makes a really impressive looking setup here.”
Mark Bauer, Professor at University of Nebraska — Lincoln

“This is the coolest stuff I’ve ever seen. The user interface is insanely easy to use because it's similar to the oscilloscopes, it can generate sine, square, ramp, pulse, arb, triangle, noise, PRBS, and DC waves. I’ve messed around with this one the most as it’s just a lot of fun, and really easy to use.”
Dylan Spruill, ECE Senior Design Teaching Assistant, NORTH CAROLINA State University
