Wi-Fi Analyser (*)

All bands (2.4 and 5 GHz)

This functionality allows a full analysis of the Wi-Fi band for the automatic detection of all the networks. Each of them is identified by name, and the power of the signal at the access point is also displayed. Two display modes are provided for the user to choose. The “list” mode provides a list of the detected networks with the associated data and power, while the “map” mode represents them on a dual-axis map: power vs. frequency.
(*) Optional feature: Ref. 593250

Measuring return path

From 5 MHz

The capacity of the meter to measure the backwards channel from 5 MHz is very useful for cable installation technicians. By displaying the signal in the spectrum, measuring power and C/N, it is possible to ensure a good status and quality of the upload data transmitted on this bandwidth.

Pass/Fail Indicators

Easy decision-making

Reduce installation mistakes with the on-screen Pass/Fail indicators, a graphical tool that helps and speeds up the interpretation of measurement results. Different thresholds are available depending on the network area to be analysed: headend, multi-band amplifiers, bridging connection, connection records, user home, etc. Besides the pre-set values, you will be able to customize your own threshold values.

Channel Information

The less the better

Sometimes, taking a quick glance at one channel is all you need. The advanced H30Crystal single-channel measurement option automatically detects the channel type, displaying the audio and video levels, A/V and C/N for analogue signals, and power, C/N, and appropriate quality measures for each type of digital signal. All these measures are taken by means of one single button; at that point, all indicators will be activated and display the “Pass/Fail” condition based on the thresholds specified by the user. Easy-to-interpret results, even for junior technicians.

System Scan

Monitored installation

Scan each existing analogue and digital channel in real time to determine the overall system frequency response. This function leverages the location-based thresholds to clearly show whether the signal levels meet the cable systems’ specifications with green, yellow and red bars. This feature provides an easy-to-understand, real-time view of the system, including the BER and MER values of the selected channel.

Spectrum Analyser

From 5MHz to "full span“

H30Crystal spectrum analyser provides a value range of 5, 10, 20, 50, 100, 200, 500 MHz and Full, as well as a reference level auto-adjust feature. Real-time processing speeds ensure the capture of any signal incidents. You will be surprised by the accuracy and the level of detail provided by this ultra-portable pocket spectrum analyser. The ultimate tool for identifying and localising noise, interference, radiation, and any other signals that may be affecting the quality of the television signal distribution service.

Guided satellite pointing

LNB self-configuration

This functionality speeds up the dish pointing work. The meter has a typical satellite and a stable transponder according to the regional zone previouly set, and it is self-configurated for the LNB connection. In addition, a sound indicator can be activated in order to audibly guide the user in the satellite dish pointing.
The reference satellite can be manually changed and start a new pointing.

Wideband LNB compatible

From 250 to 2300 MHz

This functionality for DVB-S/S2 allows the complete analysis of a satellite channel in any frequency within the 250 MHz to 2300 MHz range. Thus, the meter can be directly connected to any output of a LNB Wideband (2 outputs: Vertical and Horizontal)

MPEG

MPEG video and detailed information

Do you wish to know the contents offered on a DIGITAL channel? H30Crystal function MPEG will tell you. In addition to channel services display, you will get their key parameters: Service name, PID, resolution, audio types and figures, and NIT. A valuable help when troubleshooting your encoder configuration.

HEVC display on the meter (*)

and also on your mobile device

This functionality supports HEVC H.265 new compression format and allows to display video signals with a maximum Full HD resolution (1920 x 1080). Information can be displayed both on the meter screen* or on the mobile device (multiscreen mode) as long as your hardware is H.265 compatible (usually a smartphone, tablet or PC).
(*) Optional function: Ref. 593252

Constellation Diagram

Fine-tune your digitals

Constellation analysis is essential for determining the quality of digital signals. Constellation diagrams help detecting noise, jitter, interference and signal saturation, and all the variables that could impact signal quality, eventually leading to service suspension. By visually inspecting the size and shape of the dots in the constellation matrix, the technician will be able to easily identify the nature of the problem

Capture Plan

Custom channel plans

Identify the channels in your distribution with the ultra-fast Capture Plan function, and from there build your own channel plan containing only the channels you are interested in. Furthermore, each channel will be displayed on a bar chart with the appropriate colour based on the selected quality threshold.

Echos

Optimal signal reception

In terms of terrestial signal reception, controlling the absence of any echoes that could jeopardize reception is crucial. H30Crystal displays the echoes of the received signal, allowing the installer to minimize them for optimal signal reception.

Datalogs

Save and download

While you are taking measurements or looking for possible problems, you can save sample signal parameters for further in-depth analysis or just for record and use in your reports. It can also prove to be a useful tool for training purposes.

Always updated

Automatic detection of new software versions

The meter automatically detects if there is a new software version when it connects to the internet (WiFi, Ethernet). To notify that new software is available, an icon in the upper right part is activated without interrupting the user’s work. The system update can be accessed on the settings menu.
If the meter is not connected to the internet, it can also be updated using a PC (USB port) where the software version was previously downloaded.
