Kathrein MSK 125 manual Functionality

FUNCTIONALITY

The MSK 125 is a mobile multi-purpose measuring device intended for analogue TV and Satellite, FM radio and for DVB-C, DVB-S(2) and DVB-T for battery and mains operation. The integrated 6.5 Ah lithium-ion battery and a rechargeable 230 V AC power unit are included in the scope of supply.

A micro controller is responsible for the entire controlling, keypad query and display of frequency and level on the LC display. The receiving frequency is indicated in MHz. The level is measured with a peak and mean value detector and displayed digitally in dBµV or dBmV. Correction values are determined during the MSK 125 level calibration and stored in an EEPROM. This ensures precise level measuring. Up to 100 measuring device settings can be stored as well.

A second micro controller allows you to store several 1000 measuring results on an SC card or to read the SD card (up to 1GB) via USB.

For transmitter location the display has a bar graph. Additionally, a level-dependent bearing sound facilitates directing an antenna without having to look at the display.

The audio unit with integrated speaker can process and render SAT NF signals, the TV NF signals of B/G, D/K and I, FM sound signals as well as DVB-C, DVB-T and DVB-S(2). NICA and AM sound rendering (standard L) is also possible.

Remote power feed of 5 ... 20 V/max. 600 mA (in 0.1 Volt increments), the superposition of 22 kHz and the possibility of sending DiSEqCTM commands covers all currently known requirements. With DVB-T a 5 V antenna feeding voltage can be received at the RF connector. Also, the MZV 10 preamplifier or similar preamplifiers can be fed remotely.

The integrated, transflective 5.7“ TFT colour display with a resolution of 640 x 480 pixels allows for picture evaluation of analogue and digital TV and SAT signals in the dark as well as in sunlight.

A large black and white LC displayshows the measurement results with very high contrasts.
