The scan can be aborted at any time using the
F5
key. After a manual abort, the channel list
determined up to that point remains available for further processing.
The following figure shows a list as it is displayed on the TFT of the instrument.

Exporting the channel list
Once the function is ended (either regularly or manually), the list determined by the instrument is
available for further processing. Selecting the
EXPORT
menu item displays the following menu.
Figure 6-28 BlindScan export to XML file
The
->CHA-FILE
menu item allows the list to be exported as a user-defined channel list (see
"Chapter 17.8 - User-defined TV channel table"). The instrument numbers the channels
consecutively starting with C1. This can be easily adjusted using the “AMA Remote” PC software.
This channel table can then be re-imported into the instrument.
This is particularly useful when a cable system has a frequency configuration that does not
correspond to a standard channel table. This is necessary because special functions, such as the
TILT measurement, require a suitable channel table.
The
->XML-FILE
menu item allows the list to be saved in XML format. This is primarily used for
documentation purposes.
