Product Description
The DisplayMax 800 / 800CLI are powerful enough to maintain the headend, yet simple enough for routine installation checks. With a wide range of measurement options, a technician can quickly check an individual channel, favorite channels, all channels, tilt, ingress, C/N or HUM.
The graphic display allows a technician to view the full system response and quickly identify problems such as low level, roll-off, suck-outs or missing channels. In the ingress mode, the graphic display shows a spectrum analyzer view of the full return path, revealing any unwanted ingress signals.
All multi-channel modes are supported by an auto­matic pass/fail test that compares all measured channels against user defined parameters. In less than one minute a headend technician or installer can scan up to 135 channels and verify that all analog and digital channels are within tolerance.
Data recording permits all measurements to be saved and downloaded to a computer.
VoIP and High-Speed Data Qualifier
To test the entire home for ingress, disconnect the ground block and connect the meter to the home wiring. Performing an ingress scan will immedi­ately show if ingress is present. A peak-hold mode will capture intermittent ingress if left running for a longer period of time.
Since shielding problems also allow forward chan­nels to escape from the cable, a leakage detector is very effective in finding the source of an ingress problem. The Displaymax 800 can perform leak­age testing when upgraded to model 800CLI. With the 800CLI, simply attach the rubber duck antenna and press the leakage key.
