The Field View measurement mode (optional purchase required) provides the Remote spectrum display of the upstream (return) path as selected for broadcast. The Field View measurement mode provides increased troubleshooting accuracy by allowing you to compare spectrum measurements at the node with the current conditions at the headend.

The Field View measurement mode also provides a Return Signal Generator (RSG) if so optioned at time of purchase. The RSG provides a continuous wave (CW) signal on the upstream path that is frequency and level configurable. This signal enables you to verify the Field View two way functionality and may be used to determine the return path. by PathTrak or Phasor monitoring system. The DSAM displays the spectrum of any node that is currently monitored by the PathTrak or Phasor System and is selected for broadcast by the return monitoring system administrator.
