As above. Press button [2] during the audio carrier display.

Measuring the Audio Carrier Distance and Level of Nicam Audio Carriers:

Note

+

As above. Press button [3] during the audio carrier display.

The audio carrier frequency cannot be set. It is switched over depending on the standard being used.

The audio carrier level is only displayed as long as one of the buttons [1], [2] or [3] is pressed.

NICAM – Measuring Audio Bit Error Rates

To assess the audio quality of Nicam signals, you can measure the bit error rates (BER).

Example

0

Calling up Measuring Audio Bit Error Rates:

Press buttons [2ndF] [SC]

Press button [3]

 

 

SC: 5.85 MHz

TV

BER=2.145E-05

 

 

 

 

 

BER=0.000 is displayed if the quality of the Nicam signal is so good that no bit errors are detected,.

OVERFLOW is displayed if the Nicam signal is too bad or if no signal is received.
