6.4. Measurements in the Tuner - ATU MEASURE Menu

This menu allows remote measurements of some RF values directly at the antenna outputs of the tuner
(without the transformation action of the matching circuit). This data can be used to troubleshoot and
diagnose the status of the antennas and feeders (see Section
).
feeder Path Status
Five values are measured for the current operating frequency segment and current antenna output, as well
as three general tuner values:
ANTENNA VOLTAGE: ... V (rms)
ANTENNA CURRENT: ... A (rms)
ANTENNA FORWARD POWER: ... W
ANTENNA REFLECTED POWER: ... W
ANTENNA SWR: ...
ATU PS VOLTAGE: ... VDC
ATU TEMPERATURE: ...
ATU WORKING HOURS: ...
The measurements can be performed in STBY mode or OPER mode. The operator should manually start and
stop RF power to the tuner when performing these measurements.
In ATU MEASURE menu the tuner protection systems are temporarily blocked, so the RF
power limits (see
should be monitored by the operator (see Sections
