Review Monitor screens by turning the Control switch clockwise. The sequence of screens
depends on the mode.
• Analog IF mode routes a 70 MHz IF signal through the transmitter to the Signal input
connector.
• ASI In mode supplies an ASI stream to the RF output monitor connectors.
• COFDM mode supplies a 70 MHz CODFM IF to the RF output and monitor connectors.
• Ext. IF mode supplies a 70 MHz IF input signal to the Signal Input connector of the
transmitter.
• LMS-T mode uses a single carrier modulator and supplies a configurable LMV-S signal
to the RF output and monitor connectors.
The following table shows the Monitor screen sequences of each mode.
