IT-088 DVB-T Signal Analyzer

it-088
The IT-088 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 testing 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 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 KEY FEATURES:

lightweight and compact handheld design
measurement modes:

BER/MER mode performs measurements of DVB-T channels, shows the results on a bar-graph or a constellation diagram
SPECTRUM mode provides scanning of the entire band with the span defined by the user from 18 to 72 MHz
SCAN, TILT and RIPPLE modes shows 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 storing:

up to 32 channel plans (with channel names) and automatic channel plan creation. Automatic search for digital channel modulation parameters
up to 130 measurement logs (each indicating channel levels, C/N and V/A ratios), checking the parameter against the limit plan and saving measurement date and time. For digital channels, channel power, C/N ratio, BER, and MER are measured
up to 130 spectrum analyzer logs with 125 kHz step, adjustable scanning span and saving measurement date and time

analog channels audio reproduction with built-in speaker
measurement of AC/DC input voltage within the range of 10 to 100 V
operation with PC (additional modes avaliable)
