Antenna and Cable Analyzer
Information
The Site Master (Figure 1-1) is a hand held S21
(transmission gain or loss), SWR/RL (standing wave
ratio/return loss), and Distance-To-Fault (DTF) measurement
instrument that includes a built-in synthesized signal
source and an optional power monitor. It uses a keypad to
enter data and a liquid crystal display (LCD) to provide a
graphical indication of S21, SWR, or RL over the selected
frequency range. The Site Master has a built-in
distance-to-fault (DTF) capability. It is capable of up to
two hours of continuous operation from a fully charged
internal battery and can be operated from a 12.5 dc source
(which will
also simultaneously charge the battery). Built-in energy
conservation features can be used to extend battery life
over an eight-hour work day.
The Site Master is designed for measuring transmission
gain/insertion loss, SWR, return loss, or cable insertion
loss and locating faulty RF components in antenna systems.
Power monitoring and bias tee capabilities are available as
options. The displayed trace can be scaled
and/or enhanced with settable frequency markers and/or a
limit line. A menu option provides for an audible “beep”
when the limit value is exceeded. To permit use in low-light
environments, the LCD can be backlit using a front panel key.
