SpectrumREVERB

continuously sends a R-REVERB signal for the CO to measure the

upstream wideband power. This adjusts the CO transmit power level, its receiver gain,
synchronize its receiver, and train its equalizer.

SpectrumMEDLEY

continuously sends a R-MEDLEY signal (pseudo-random signal) for

the CO to train its frequency domain equalizer and to estimate upstream SNR.

SpectrumPILOT

continuously sends a R-PILOT signal (single frequency sinusoid) for

the CO to synchronize with the modem.

None

specifies no testing.

These diagnostic programs have significance only to technical support personnel and are not
discussed further in this manual.
