The BTPRO-1000 is a versatile CATV test instrument for measuring both digital and analog CATV and Broadcast TV signals. Robust and easy to use, BTPRO-1000 provides hours of operating time from its high capacity battery. The instrument comes complete with a soft carrying case, AC main and automotive chargers.

Includes Pro: Idiom Key Recovery feature for Hospitality applications that employ Pro:Idiom television sets. The option consists
of a built-in frequency agile QAM modulator that connects directly to an affected Pro:Idiom TV to provide new encryption key information.

Features:

QAM/8VSB/NTSC Measurements.
Extended frequency range of 4-1000 MHz.
MER, aBER, bBER, Noise Margin and Level/Power measurements plus Spectrum Analysis.
Automatic quality analysis: FAIL-MARGINAL-PASS.
Auto Seek & Store Function - an essential feature for creating custom memory channel plans. Scans receivable signals, determines signal
type (QAM,8VSB or analog) and stores only those channels having signal levels above user defined values.
Ingress and Leakage Modes.
Data Logger Function: Steps through each channel in the "Active" memory plan and stores all related measurements.
Graphics Display.
Alpha-numeric keypad.
PI Restore and PI Key Test (PI encrypted color bar test pattern) functions.
Clear QAM test signals used for TV compatibility testing in the following formats:
MPEG-2 video with AC3 Audio
*MPEG-2 video with MPEG-2 Layer 1 Audio
*MPEG-4/H.264 with AC3 Audio
