1-2 Instrument Description
The Site Master S331E/S361E is a handheld cable and antenna analyzer designed to make
Return Loss, VSWR, Cable Loss, and Distance-To-Fault (DTF) measurements in the field.
The cable and antenna analyzer also includes 1-port phase and smith chart measurements.
The 2-port transmission measurement option includes two power levels and access to a
built-in 32 volt bias tee (Option 10).
The S332E/S362E is an integrated multi-functional test instrument that eliminates the need
to carry and learn multiple test sets. In addition to the cable and antenna measurements, the
S332E/S362E can be configured to include a Spectrum Analyzer, 2-port Transmission
Measurement, Interference Analyzer with Interference Mapping capabilities, Coverage
Mapping, Channel Scanner, CW Signal Generator, AM/FM/PM Analyzer, PIM Analyzer,
Power Meter, and High Accuracy Power Meter. A GPS receiver can be added to both the
S331E/S361E and the S332E/S362E Site Master models.
The bright 8.4 in TFT color display provides easy viewing in a variety of lighting conditions
and the combination of a touch screen and keypad enables users to navigate menus with the
touch screen and enter numbers with the keypad. All Site Master models are equipped with
a Li-Ion battery delivering more than four hours of battery life for the S331E/S361E and more
than three hours of battery life for the S332E/S362E Site Masters.
The internal memory is large enough to store approximately 2,000 traces or setups.
Measurements and setups can also be stored in a USB flash drive or transferred to a PC using
the included USB cable. Ethernet connectivity is available using Option 411.
Master Software Tools (MST), a PC based software program, can be used to create reports,
view and organize data, analyze historical data, add markers and limit lines, rename traces
and trace analysis. Refer to Chapter 10 for a brief overview of Master Software Tools and the
Master Software Tools Users Guide (.pdf file is available on the MST CD-ROM) for additional
information. (.DAT files can be opened with the legacy Handheld Software Tools (HHST)
application.)
Available Models
Table 1-1 lists the Site Master models and frequency ranges described in this User Guide.
Note
Not all after-market USB drives are compatible with the instrument. Many drives
come with a second partition that contains proprietary firmware. This partition must
be removed. Only one partition is allowed. Refer to the individual manufacturer for
instructions on how to remove it. Some drives can be made to work by reformatting
them using the FAT32 format.

1-3 Instrument Care and Preventive Maintenance General Information
1-4 PN: 10580-00252 Rev. J Site Master User Guide
1-3 Instrument Care and Preventive Maintenance
Site Master care and preventive maintenance consists of cleaning the unit and inspecting and
cleaning the RF connectors on the instrument and all accessories. Clean the Site Master with
a soft, lint-free cloth dampened with water or water and a mild cleaning solution.
Connector Care
Clean the RF connectors and center pins with a cotton swab dampened with denatured
alcohol. Visually inspect the connectors. The fingers of the N(f) connectors and the pins of the
N(m) connectors should be unbroken and uniform in appearance. If you are unsure whether
the connectors are undamaged, gauge the connectors to confirm that the dimensions are
correct. Visually inspect the test port cable(s). The test port cable should be uniform in
appearance, and not stretched, kinked, dented, or broken.
To prevent damage to your instrument, do not use pliers or a plain wrench to tighten the
Type-N connectors. The recommended torque is 12 lbf·in to 15 lbf·in (1.36 N·m to 1.70 N·m).
Inadequate torque settings can affect measurement accuracy. Over-tightening connectors can
damage the cable, the connector, the instrument, or all of these items.
Visually inspect connectors for general wear, cleanliness, and for damage such as bent pins or
connector rings. Repair or replace damaged connectors immediately. Dirty connectors can
limit the accuracy of your measurements. Damaged connectors can harm the instrument.
Connection of cables carrying an electrostatic potential, excess power, or excess voltage can
damage the connector, the instrument, or both.
Connecting Procedure
1. Carefully align the connectors. The male connector center pin must slip concentrically
into the contact fingers of the female connector.
2. Push connectors straight together. Do not twist or screw them together. A slight
resistance can usually be felt as the center conductors mate.
3. To tighten, turn the connector nut, not the connector body. Major damage can occur to
the center conductor and to the outer conductor if the connector body is twisted.
4. If you use a torque wrench, initially tighten by hand so that approximately 1/8 turn or
45 degrees of rotation remains for the final tightening with the torque wrench.
Relieve any side pressure on the connection (such as from long or heavy cables) in order
to assure consistent torque. Use an open-end wrench to keep the connector body from
turning while tightening with the torque wrench.
Do not over-torque the connector.
Disconnecting Procedure
1. If a wrench is needed, use an open-end wrench to keep the connector body from turning
while loosening with a second wrench.
2. Complete the disconnection by hand, turning only the connector nut.
3. Pull the connectors straight apart without twisting or bending.
Caution To avoid damaging the display or case, do not use solvents or abrasive cleaners.
