Important! Sometimes inductance or capacitance values are displayed with a minus sign. It would seem to be contrary to
the laws of physics. But no, in Rig Expert analyzers, the minus sign next to the value indicates how much inductance or
capacitance you need to add to the circuit in order to compensate for the reactive component of the impedance.

Screens switch among themselves by pressing
keys.
There are two ways to change the value of the operating frequency:
keystrokes
and
A single press changes the frequency value minimally. If you press and hold the
keys, the frequency will change continuously with an accelerated step.
pressing and holding the
key for 2 seconds. After that, an information window will appear on the analyzer
screen. Press
key again. A window will appear on the analyzer screen with the setting of the operating
frequency. The
keys select the cursor position to change units, tens, hundreds, thousands of
kilohertz, and the
keys change the value.
A single press of the
key saves the change and returns to
Single mode
.
A single press of the
key returns to
Single mode
without saving changes.
The help menu is accessible by pressing and holding the
key and then selecting the

Multé mode.
Multé
is a new mode, in which you can quickly assess how well your antenna works on different HAM bands.
The result is displayed as stars. The smaller the
SWR
of the antenna in the range, the more stars.
Table of the dependence of the number of stars on the SWR:
5
–
SWR from 1.0 to 1.1
4
– SWR from 1.1 to 1.15
3
– SWR from 1.15 to 1.3
2
– SWR from 1.3 to 1.7
1
– SWR from 1.7 to 3.0
The SWR over 3 analyzer in Multé mode ignores.
If, after scanning, the analyzer did not find a single resonance, then this means that either your antenna has a
minimum SWR of more than 3, or the antenna or coaxial cable is damaged.
