Provides Level, MiniScan, Full Scan, Tilt, Constellation, and FDR measurement
modes that view and analyze CATV channels. A return QAM generator is also
provided to transmit CW or QAM16 signals in the return path.
LEVEL
MINISCAN
FULL SCAN
Full Scan measurement mode views and analyzes the carrier levels of up
to 999 channels at a time and displays the video and audio levels of a
carrier on a single screen. The results can be viewed in graph or table
form.
TILT
CONSTELLATION (Optional Purchased Required)
Constellation measurement mode displays a constellation diagram of the
demodulated digital Quadrature Amplitude Modulation (QAM) type (64 QAM
or 256 QAM) signal prior to error correction. The channel of interest
must be defined as either Digital or DOCSIS type, either 64 or 256 QAM,
within the active channel plan. This mode also displays the channel number,
channel frequency level information, Modulation Error Ratio (MER) and
Bit Error Ratio (BER) Pre and Post data.
FDR
RETURN QAM GENERATOR
Return QAM Generator mode provides proof of upstream network capabilities
along with increased upstream troubleshooting accuracy by allowing you
to transmit CW or QAM16 signals in the return path.
QAM INGRESS (Optional Purchase Required)
The QAM INGRESS mode is a line plot which graphs signal error versus frequency
of QAM signals.
HUM (Optional Purchase Required)
Hum mode displays the total hum percentage for a specified channel over
a 1 kHz span.
DQI (Optional Purchase Required)
Hum mode is a real-time measurement that detects intermittent impairments
within a downstream digital QAM carrier.
SMART SCAN (Optional Purchase Required)
Smart Scan measurement mode views and analyzes the carrier levels of up
to 999 channels at a time and displays the level and deviations of all
channels in the active channel plan on a single screen.
OPTICAL POWER (Optional Purchase Required)
Optical Power measurement mode measures fiber optic signal strength using the MP-60
or the MP-80 connected through the USB port.
