IT-088 Digital TV COFDM Signal Analyzer

The IT-088 Digital DVB-T Signal Analyzer is a configuration of the IT-08 Multifunction TV Meter comprised of MB-08 Base Unit and MC-088 Removable Module. IT-088 is designed to ensure high-performance control and adjustment of television and broadcasting distribution networks as well as of separate components of such networks, or other electronic devices. The Meter allows measurement of DVB-T/H signal parameters and analog signals. IT-088 is capable to satisfy all your measurement needs for high-quality operation within the range of 45 to 865 MHz.
IT-088 GENERAL FEATURES:
- lightweight and compact handheld design
- measurement modes:
- BER/MER mode performs measurements of DVB-T/H channels, indicates results on a bar-graph or a constellation diagram
- SPECTRUM mode provides scanning of entire band with the span defined by the user from 18 to 72 MHz
- SCAN, TILT and RIPPLE modes indicate the level of all the channels present in the band (or channels according to the channel plan) on a bar-graph
- LEVEL measurements:
- for analog channels: channel level, Carrier to Noise (C/N) ratio, Video to Audio (V/A) ratio
- for digital channels: channel power, Carrier to Noise (C/N) ratio.
- measurement of reception quality parameters of digital channels:
- modulation error rate (MER)
- bit error rate before (preVBER) and after (postVBER) Viterbi decoder, and also after (postBER) Reed-Solomon decoder
- channel carrier frequency offset from the tuning frequency
- data logger function providing storage for:
- up to 32 channel plans (with channel names) and automatic channel plan creation. Automatic search for digital channel parameters (modulation type, symbol rate)
- up to 200 measurement logs (each indicating channel levels, C/N and V/A ratios), checking the parameter compliance with the limit plan and saving comments and measurement date and time. For digital channels, channel power within bandwidth, S/N ratio, BER, and MER are measured
- up to 200 spectrum analyzer logs with 125 kHz step, adjustable scanning span and saving comments and measurement date and time. Saving up to 14 spectrum logs within the full frequency range
- analog channels audio reproduction with internal speaker
- measurement of AC/DC input voltage within the range of 10 to 100 V
- operation with PC for access to additional modes:
- performing all kinds of measurements
- viewing and editing channel plan pages
- updating software and firmware
