To use the Gold TS reference functionality, first store away tables for a stream or a set of streams. Go to
ETR 290 — Gold TS thr..
Here you can see the reference thresholds currently stored on the probe and they can be renamed or
edited.
To add new reference thresholds or update the existing thresholds click on the button named
Add/update
threshold. The following dialog is then shown:
There are two different ways of creating a Gold TS reference template:
• Creating a template for the currently tuned stream on a specific input
• Creating a template for all streams on a specific input (or all inputs)
When creating a template for a specific stream the table set is saved immediately. It is therefore
recommended that the ETR tuning is locked to this stream to avoid the round-robin operation from tuning
to a new frequency just before the table set is stored. It can take 30 seconds after tuning to receive all
tables.
When creating templates for all streams on an input this is done as a part of the round robin cycle at the
end if the tuning period. It can then take a while for all thresholds to be generated (or updated) depending
on the number of streams on that input.
When the reference template have been created it is automatically associated with the stream for which it
was generated.
The operation of the Gold TS reference thresholds are controlled by the ETR threshold template
associated with the stream. No settings are changed here when creating the reference templates so this
needs to be done manually by going to ETR 290 — ETR thr.
If needed a new template can be created and associated with the stream(s). Or the existing template(s)
can be changed.
