INTRODUCTION The CHAMP ULTRA-LITE™ is a hand held RF meter used for measuring RF signal strength. The unit is equipped with a 2 line, 16 character LCD for readout and setups. Three two-way push buttons are used to control the operation of the meter and its functions.
Ultra-Lite from -120 dBm (no signal) to -32 dBm (strongest signal)). The RSSI LCD indication on line 1 does display this full range of dBm. Each solid block is 5 dBm. A block in the display is repre- sented by 5 segments. Each segment is equal to 1 dB. CONTROL BUTTONS There are just three buttons on the front panel used to control the instrument.
POWERING UP When you first power up the ULTRA-LITE, you should see the startup screen as shown: LINE 1 displays the model and version number of the model LINE 2 displays the serial number of the unit as assigned by the Berkeley Varitronics Factory.
control channels (334-354). After the scan, the strongest fre- quency encountered will be measured and displayed. BEST Scroll through the menu selections until BEST appears.
