channel type; 

 

the name and the number of the channel; 

 

TV channel frequency; 

 

V

: TV channel level or 

P

: digital TV channel power; 

 

deviation of the value level from the nominal value. 

The level, frequency, and level deviation values correspond to the channel at the marker position. 
The  marker’s  position  can  be  changed  by  pressing

.  The  analog  channel  bar  is 

yellow, the digital channel bar is blue. 

The Scan measurement mode has two display options: ripple measurement (

Limit

 option) (Figure 

4.4) and tilt measurement (Figure 4.5). To select an option for the display, press 

«F2»

To  adjust  the  mode  parameters,  press 

«F1/Settings»

.  Two  parameters  will  appear  in  the  drop-

Level scale

going to the setup menu is not needed. 

In  the  ripple  measurement  mode,  the  display  shows  boundaries  of  required  channel  levels.  To 
adjust the boundaries, press 

«F3/Limit»

 and adjust the base level value and the ripple value in the 

drop-down menu. 

While working without a channel plan, when entering the mode, the channel types are detected 
automatically. Channel type automatic detection is also performed after the signal appears at the 
input  of  the  device  (if  there  was  no  signal before).  Work  is  conducted  on  all  channels  of  the  TV 
system. When working with one of the channel plans, scanning is performed only on the selected 
channels. Tuning the marker is made through the channels of the channel plan.
