The next software release will include the capability to use the Portsdown as a basic signal generator covering 54 MHz to 4.2 GHz.
Starting the Signal Generator
The Portsdown Signal Generator is accessed from Menu 3 of the Portsdown Transmitter touchscreen. When the "Sig Gen" is started it stops the Portsdown Transmitter application, and starts the signal generator. On exit from the signal generator the Portsdown Transmitter is restarted (in a standby state) on Menu 1. The Signal Generator is only controlled from the touchscreen and cannot be controlled from the console.
Controlling the Signal Generator
The Signal Generator has 2 screens, a Configuration Screen and a Frequency Screen.
On the Configuration Screen:
The ON button enables the RF output. The OFF button stops the RF output. The EXIT button terminates the Signal Generator and restarts the Portsdown DATV Transmitter.
