MOVING THE MARKER

You can view up to six carriers. A vertical marker appears over the
currently selected carrier. The channel number, type and label
appear in the upper right-hand portion of the screen. The fre-
quency and level of the selected carrier can be seen directly
beneath the graph. You can use the left or right arrows to select the
previous or next carrier.

SELECTING THE LOW AND HIGH CARRIERS

Notice that the bars representing the low and high pilots are solid
and all others are dim. You can select which carriers are used for
the tilt measurement. To select the low pilot carrier, move the
cursor to the desired carrier and press the
the high pilot carrier, move the cursor to the desired carrier and
press the soft key. The tilt measurement is calculated from
the low and high pilot carriers that you have selected.

ADJUSTING THE REFERENCE LEVEL

the level at the very top line. You can adjust the reference level
using the up and down arrows. When you press the SHIFT +

level for you.

ADJUSTING THE SCALE

The scale setting is displayed above the graph. You can adjust the
scale to provide the best view of the carrier levels by pressing the
soft key. A new set of soft keys appears. Use the
soft keys to increment and decrement the scale value. Press the
soft key when you have finished.

MEASUREMENT HOLD

You can freeze the tilt measurement at any time by pressing the
SHIFT + keys. The measurement is retained even if the cable
is disconnected from the input port. Notice that the mode icon in
the upper left-hand portion of the screen appears inverted while the
measurement is on hold. Pressing the SHIFT +
time releases the hold. The measurement is not retained when
another mode is selected or the microStealth is shut off.
