Fig. 9-8 QAM INGRESS Main Screen
The SDA will automatically attempt to lock-on to the QAM signal of the
designated channel (or frequency). Lock errors may result from a variety of
conditions, including improper unit configuration or cable connection.
Connect the cable to the digital port on the unit before using any of the four
digital modes.
If initially unsuccessful, the following error message will appear:
“ERROR … Signal Unlocked! Confirm Connection to Dig Port. Retry.”
Press this soft key to retry to lock onto the QAM signal. This key
will appear in the lower right corner of the screen when lock
errors occur, otherwise the key will remain blank.
Measuring QAM INGRESS
QAM INGRESS Mode operates much like SPECTRUM Mode. From the
Main Screen you can
• select the active marker
• move the marker to a desired measurement point
• select the Peak Search function
• edit the modulation format and symbol rates
• move to the LEVEL submenu to edit the Reference Level, Scale
parameter, or select the Maximum Hold graph/plot.
