Test Time (min):
Selects how long the test should
run. The test can be set to run for as short as
1 minute or as long as 24 hours (1440 minutes)
depending on battery life. To edit the value, press
F1 Edit
and enter the test time. Once it’s entered,
press
F4 Done
to return to the Impulse Noise Setup
screen.
•
Blank Time:
Sets the time after a hit is detected
before another may be counted. The blanking time
can be set to 10mS, 125mS, or 1000mS and can be
selected by using the left (
4
) and right (
6
) buttons.
The default value is “125mS”.
To modify the thresholds values, select
F3 Next
.
The second Impulse Noise Setup screen provides
the user with the thresholds available for performing
impulse noise measurements. Three thresholds may
be set, but a minimum of one will be active at any
time. A count will be registered when testing each time
a noise impulse exceeds the respective thresholds.
The thresholds may be set for pass, marginal, and fail
values if desired. To change a threshold, select it by
using the up (
2
) or down (
8
) buttons and then do one of
the following:
• To change a selected threshold, press
F1 Edit
. The
unit will prompt for a threshold value. Enter the new
value and press
F4 Done
. The unit will return to the
Threshold Setup screen and the new threshold will
be displayed.
• To remove a selected threshold (and return it to “Not
set”), press the
#
key or program the threshold to be
the same as another threshold to make it “Not set”.
Note: When changing thresholds, be aware that the
unit will re-order the thresholds in descending order
after every change.
Once the impulse noise parameters are set, press the
O
(
Back)
key to return to the Test screen.
