Kathrein MSK 125 manual Sound Carrier Frequency Setting, SAT Analogue Level Measurement

SAT

“SAT ANALOGUE” LEVEL MEASUREMENT

After you have set a frequency the level is measured automatically and indicated on the LC display in dBµV or dBmV (depending on the basic configuration). The input level can be measured in the range of 30 dBµV to 120 dBµV (-30 dBmV to 60 dBmV).

LC display:

•Frequency: 1508.0 MHz

•Operating mode: SAT analogue

•Measured level: 86.5 dBµV

Level overflow and underflow

At a level < 30 dBµV the LC display indicates an underflow.

The following details are displayed:

•Frequency: 1508.0 MHz

•Operating mode: SAT analogue

•Level: underflow

At a level > 120 dBµV the LC display indicates an overflow.

The following details are displayed:

•Frequency: 1508.0 MHz

•Operating mode: SAT analogue

•Level: Overflow

Note

The level of DVB-S(2) signals can only be measured properly with the setting “SAT digital reception”.

SOUND CARRIER FREQUENCY SETTING

Every analogue satellite video signal has multiple audio carrier frequencies assigned. On the MSK 125 you can listen to main and sub-audio carriers you choose. The audio carrier frequency can be adjusted from 5.0 MHz to 8.99 MHz in 10 kHz intervals. At 7.00 MHz the sound carrier bandwidth is automatically switched from “wide” (280 kHz) to “narrow” (150 kHz).

By default the following sound carrier frequencies are stored:
