Cable TV Measurements (Option K20)
The Cable TV Measurements option provides ready–made measurements for analog and digital TV
signals where most of the parameters are set automatically. Thus the measurements can be carried out
fast and with a minimum of effort.
Averaging can be applied to the measurement results. If the results are presented in a table, only the
values in the table are averaged, not the trace itself. For details refer to "Setting Traces – TRACE Key"
on page 4.39. Measurement specific settings as signal levels, limits etc. are saved using the save /
recall function described in section "Instrument Functions – Basic Settings", "Instrument Setup and
Interface Configuration – SETUP Key".
This option is available from firmware version 1.30.
