ON

 

Turns the Site Master on or off. When turned on, the system state at the last

OFF

turn-off is restored. If the ESCAPE/CLEAR key is held down, the factory preset

 

 

 

state is restored.

PRINT

Prints the current display to the selected printer via the RS232 serial port.

RECALL

Recalls a previously saved trace from memory. When the key is pressed, a Re-

DISPLAY

call Trace selection box appears on the display. Select a trace using the

 

 

 

Up/Down arrow key and press the ENTER key to implement.

 

 

 

To erase a saved trace, highlight the trace and select the DELETE TRACE

 

 

 

softkey. To erase all saved traces, select the DELETE ALL TRACES softkey.

RECALL

Recalls a previously saved setup from memory location 1 through 10. When the

SETUP

key is pressed, a RECALL SETUP selection box appears on the display. Select a

 

 

 

setup using the Up/Down arrow key and press the ENTER key to implement.

 

 

 

Setup 0 recalls the factory preset state.

RUN

 

When in the Hold mode, this key starts the Site Master sweeping and provides a

HOLD

Single Sweep Mode trigger; when in the Run mode, it pauses the sweep. When

 

 

 

in the Hold mode, the hold symbol (page 3-23)appears on the LCD. Hold mode

 

 

 

conserves battery power.

SAVE

Saves up to 200 displayed traces to non-volatile memory. When the key is

DISPLAY

pressed, TRACE NAME: appears in the lower left of the display. Save the dis-

 

 

 

play with up to 16 alphanumeric characters for that trace name and press the

 

 

 

ENTER key to implement.

SAVE

Saves the current system setup to 1 of 10 internal non-volatile memory loca-

SETUP

tions. When the key is pressed, a SAVE SETUP selection box appears on the dis-

 

 

 

play. Use the Up/Down arrow key to select a setup and press the ENTER key to

 

 

 

implement.

START

Starts the calibration in SWR, Return Loss, Cable Loss, insertion loss, insertion

CAL

gain, or DTF measurement modes. Follow the text in the lower left message area

 

 

 

that instructs you to do the following:

 

 

 

￿ CONNECT OPEN TO RF out PORT, Press ENTER

 

 

 

The Site Master then measures the calibration “open” that you must attach to

 

 

 

the end of the test port or to the end of the test port cable attached to the RF

 

 

 

Out port.

 

 

 

￿ CONNECT SHORT TO RF out PORT, Press ENTER

 

 

 

The Site Master then measures the calibration “short” that you must attach to

 

 

 

the end of the test port or to the end of the test port cable attached to the RF

 

 

 

Out port.

 

 

 

￿ CONNECT LOAD TO RF out PORT, Press ENTER

 

 

 

The Site Master then measures the 50￿ load that you must attach to the end

 

 

 

of the test port or to the end of the test port cable attached to the RF Out port.
