Seeker & Seeker MCA III Operation Manual
Channel Tag
The Channel Tag display is used to enable or disable the channel tag feature for the
selected frequency preset.
A Channel Tagger adds a low frequency tag (10-23 Hz, excluding 16 Hz) to a CATV
channel. When the Channel Tag feature is enabled in the Seeker, it will alarm and produce
an audible tone only when the leakage signal has the required tag. This eliminates false
alarms from signals that do not originate in the user’s system.
In the Channel Tag display, the Tag icon in the upper right corner of the display will blink if
the tag feature is not enabled. The Tag icon will be constantly displayed if the tag feature
is on.
Press the CHANGE button to turn the tag feature on or off. When the tag feature is turned
on, the display will momentarily show the tag frequency for the selected frequency preset.
The Channel Tag feature requires the installation, use, and
proper setup of the CT-2 or CT-3 Channel Tagger. It also
requires the corresponding setup of the Seeker.
After a few seconds in the Channel Tag display without any
action by the user, the display will revert to the Signal Level
display.
