Nexio · Test automation software

BAT-EMC: one software for every EMC test

Nexio is a French electromagnetic specialist founded in 2003, and BAT-EMC has been in development since 1995. It runs emission and immunity campaigns from one interface, is independent of the instrument brands you own, and ships with drivers for more than 500 instruments. ICX Lab is the authorised distributor and provides demonstration, installation, integration and training locally.

Why BAT-EMC

Built for laboratories, not for one manufacturer

Nexio makes software only, so BAT-EMC works with the receivers, generators, amplifiers and positioners you already have and the ones you buy next.

Hardware independentChoose any equipment brand. Drivers for all major manufacturers are included and updated free of charge.
500+ instruments supportedKeysight, Rohde & Schwarz, AR, Schwarzbeck, Narda, Tektronix, Anritsu and more, with new drivers added on request.
One interface for everythingRadiated, conducted and reverberation tests, emission and immunity, in a single Windows tree-view environment.
Two years of maintenance includedEvery purchase includes two years of updates, driver additions and phone, email and remote support.
