Basic Signal Level Meter

Level Measurements

When testing or troubleshooting within your analog, digital or mixed analog/digital

transmission system, the 120 DSP makes the perfect tool for measuring the power levels of

all of your analog and digital QAM carriers.
Additionally, for QAM carriers (including deep interleave) the 120 DSP provides

Constellation, Equalizer Tap, MER and BER measurement displays. This allows users to

quickly analyze 64 and 256 QAM downstream channels for quality verifications or to locate

impairments with the meter, all right out of the box.

Channel Plan Scan

With it’s channel plan scan feature, the 120 DSP can also display the frequency response

of the entire channel lineup. This measurement displays a color-coded bar graph of each

channel or your favorite channels in the active channel plan. The channel plan scan also

includes on-screen markers that can be adjusted to perform a tilt measurement.

Spectrum Measurements

The 120 DSP comes standard with the ability to display the the full return spectrum from

4 to 110 MHz. The spectrum display provides peak measurements, color-coded markers,

and delta measurements. This feature also includes adjustable detector modes which are

useful for capturing bursty transient noise. Optionally, the 120 DSP can also be equipped to

perform forward spectrum measurements from 50 MHz to 1000 MHz.

Simple Yet Powerful

Providing the widest range of functions for an installer available today (as standard

options), the 120 DSP includes virtually all the testing options an installer or service

technician needs to verify service quality and easily identify and fix problems in the field.
