Description
The television explorer
TV EXPLORER
II
/
II+
represents an evolutionary step with
respect to the traditional field strength meters. The continuous
PROMAX
innovation
process in the sector of field strength meter yields an instrument that changes the way to
take and understand television signals measurements.
This equipment incorporates important advances in the
functional
aspects as
well as in the
ergonomics
to allow the installers to make their work with maximum
comfort
and
speed.
Simultaneously the instrument is
reliable
for any possible problem
at the
input signal
, at the
distribution components
or the
receiver equipment
.
The
TV EXPLORER II / II+
has been designed to satisfy all the necessities of
measurement during the
transition from the analogue transmissions to digital
in
terrestrial
,
satellites
and
cable
systems. Allowing measurements of
analogue
signals
as well as
digital ones
. When pressing the
auto identification
key, it searches and
identifies the
signal under test.
First it recognises whether the signal is an analogue
channel or a digital one. If the channel is analogue, it determines the television standard
of the signal. When the signal is digital (
DVB
), it analyses for each modulation type
QAM
/
QPSK
/
8PSK
/
COFDM
all the associated parameters such as the modulation system:
carriers 2k-8k, symbol rate, code rate
, etc. and determines the value of the signals
under test.
The range of frequencies covered makes this instrument an excellent tool for
FM
radio
,
terrestrial TV
,
mobile TV
,
satellite TV
and
cable TV
(where the subband tuning
margin, from 5 to 45 MHz, enables the user to carry out tests on the return channel).
