Power supply

A DC adapter is provided to power and charge the meter. Plug the adapter into a properly grounded electrical supply and the power connector on the side of the unit.

When external power is supplied, the battery management system automatically controls the charging process.

A battery icon indicates the charge status of the battery.

When the battery is fully charged, the battery icon is completely lled. As the battery discharges, the amount the icon is lled decreases in steps.

The icon shows 5 states representing the approximate battery charge:

- Battery charge less than 5%.

- Battery charge between 5% and 25%.

- Battery charge between 25% and 50%.

- Battery charge between 50% and 75%.

- Battery charge greater than 75%.

From a fully discharged state, a full charge takes approximately 8 hours and a 3 hour charge will provide approximately a 75% charge.

The charge management system will detect various conditions preventing charging, such as a battery that is over a safe temperature.

About battery

Important:

If the meter detects a shortcircuit or over consumption, and it is not connected to the power supply, it automatically shuts down.

To turn it on again, it is necessary that it is connected to tyeh power supply.

To maximize battery life:

Avoid fully discharging the battery.

The battery should always be charged with the

battery pack attached to the device and using the supplied DC adapter or applying a constant voltage within the specied range (12-15VDC).

For long term storage, keep the unit at room

temperature, or about 25º C. Start with a charged battery and re-charge the battery every 2 to 3 months.

Battery replacement:

It is recommended that the replacement of the battery is carried out by qualied personnel following the following instructions:

Disconnect the meter from the power supply:

Analog and digital channels are very dierent in terms of signal content and power distribution and thus require the advanced SLM techniques provided in the Televes H30Evolution.

In analog mode, video and audio levels, V/A and Carrier to Noise (C/N) are measured.

In digital mode measurements depend on the modulation:

DVB-S: Power, C/N, MER, CBER, VBER

DVB-S2: Power, C/N, MER, LDPCBER, BCHBER

DVB-T (Ref. 593301, 593302, 593304 and Opt. 593231): Power, C/N, MER, CBER, VBER

2. Spectrum

Real-time processing speeds ensure capture of any fast, intermittent plant impairments.

Due to the accuracy and level of detail provided by this spectrum analyzer, the H30Evolution is the ideal tool for identifying and locating noise, interference, ingress and other waveforms that may be aecting cable services quality.
