Preparation level test

The processor-controlled level meter SPM 6 PC is a compact and handy designed

device ideal for fast level control of the local loop cans TAG. It is therefore

particularly useful for sales people (media consultant) of a cable operator to

easily check the cable connection at the subscriber.

The working principle is based on level measurement with a predetermined

channel lists of the respective cable TV network. For the test leve are bar graphs

and assigned appropriately colored LEDs. The level values of each channel can

be displayed directly after the test.

With the now existing PC interface and our software to the device, you can

easily create the required channel list even if the corresponding information for

the cable TV network are available or not.

1| The included connection cable with F-type connectors is hand-tight to

unscrew by hand with one of the two identical F-plug to F-connector of the level tester. Use of any other cable connection is not recommended.

On the free F-cable connector of the enclosed adapter (F-female to IEC female) is then screwed firmly with his F-connector. Then the level meter is connected with the screwed cable connection by plugging the IEC socket on the TV socket on the junction box.

6.1 SCAN with LED-display

2 | In an immediately following short keypress SPM remains on 6 PC. The display

shows the channel list is displayed.

For multiple channel lists in the unit that may require s to be selected by

pressing the key for about 1. If the button is pressed after power a second time,

so the unit turns off again, just after 2 minutes without pressing a key.

In this mode, searches the "SPM 6 PC" continued for five consecutive sections by reference channels in CATV frequency range, which can be chosen freely marked in the channel list. The five frequency bands and the allocation of the LED printed sindaufdem meter. On the basis of the "SPM 6 PC" stored limit values for the minimum / maximum levels at outlets (TAD) associated with "SCAN" continually held an evaluation. The evaluation result for each frequency range is shown (yellow / green red /) by the corresponding LED. The display for the entire sub-region varies on the worst level value in the reference channels concerned.

1 | The device is switched on by briefly pressing

the button once. It first appears for about 1 s, the

device type and the version number of the

implemented device software.

(v2.01 - 10.12.2013)

The display then changes to the state of charge of

the battery with the voltage output value and is

also visualized with a horizontal bar graph. Typical

display value is in the range

5.8 V-7, 2 V. At 5.5-5.7 V all LEDs, that are currently active for the level

measurement flash.

In return test flashes 3 LED red. The operating time is approximately 15

minutes. If the battery voltage falls below 5.5 V, the device automatically

switches off and is only after connecting the power charger to operate again.

By switching on an LED test takes place. In this case, all the LEDs light up

simultaneously for 1 s each red, then yellow and finally green.

Another short press now triggers the scan with the

selected channel list. The five LEDs are now ready

for automatic evaluation active.

A not existing channel assignment above 470 MHz and 614 MHz in the level 3

(lack of network expansion or lack of channel occupancy) leads to corresponding

red LED displays. In these cases, from the "bad not yet be concluded that the

The following figure shows the evaluation of the scan by LED. The top LED

(LED1) shows the evaluation result of sub-area 1, the next LED indicates the

sub-region 2, etc. If the scanned reference channels of the subregions

were found to be "right," the area 1 relevantLED is green, otherwise

the display is determined by the

worst channel in each subarea.

After another short push button, the display shows

the evaluation of the scan by LED and a five-part

vertical bar graph. In this case, the height of a bar

represents the result of the particular

area (Pkt.6.3). The top LED indicates the overall result of each measurement

point: poor, borderline, in order.

After the channels were durchgetastet, one arrives at the next short push
