DVB-S(2) MER, BER AND OFFSET MEASUREMENT

The modulation error rate (MER), the bit error rate (BER) and the
carrier frequency offset (LNB offset) can be measured to rate the
digital reception quality.
Note:

In this case MER shown on the display has the same

meaning as SNR (signal radio ratio).

Use the

button to select between SAT analogue and SAT

digital.

Calling up DVB-S(2) measurement:

In SAT digital reception mode press the

button.

LC display:
• MER modulation error rate: 12.6 dB
• Modulation type 8PSK
• Code rate 9/10
• BER bit error rate: 1.7e-7
• Standard = DVBS2
• Carrier frequency offset (LNB offset): +0.72 MHz

If the quality of the DVB signal is so good that no bit error can be
detected, BER = 0.0e+0 is displayed.
