Uploading a Cable List

After custom cable list has be created in Site Master Software Tools it can upload it to the Site Master. The serial communication null modem cable must be connected from the Site Master to the PC.

Querying the Site Master Cable List

Query Cable List allows the user to check and review the contents of the custom cable list in the Site Master.

In the Cable Editor, select Tools and Query Cable List. The software will download the ca- ble list from the Site Master to the PC.

Creating a Database

A single trace or a block of traces can be transferred from the Site Master to the PC. A sep- arate database can be created for each cellular site. The site name can be used as the data- base name.

Step 1. Select the File menu and select the Database.

Step 2. Open an existing database or create a new database with a descriptive filename that represents the site name.

Once the database has been created, files can be saved and site information can be added, such as Plot Description, Date/Time, Operator, record/trace number and session description (Transmitter type etc.)

Individual plots will be labeled with the Database Site Name. Each record has its own plot description and measurement type (for example, Return Loss-antenna, Return Loss-cable, and DTF-Return Loss).

Printing Formats

One to multiple plots per page can be set up under the print format in Site Master Software Tools. Orientation of how the plots are printed on the page can be changed from vertical to horizontal.
