Performing a Transponder Survey
You can use the AIM’s Transponder Survey feature to record the signal power,
carrier-to-noise ratio (ES/No), frequency offset, and lock status for all transponders
that can be received using the selected equipment. This can help to determine the
location of a problem for an installation. Connecting the AIM in the distribution
network, you can progressively test each segment of the connection between the
ODU and the IRD to locate a problem.
To perform a Transponder Survey:
1 Start the job for the installation (“Starting a Job” on page31).
2 From the HOME screen, press TEST to go to the TEST screen.
3 Use

SURVEY screen.

press SELECT to continue.
