Chapter 1
General Information
Introduction
This chapter provides a description, performance specifications, optional accessories, pre-
ventive maintenance, and calibration requirements for the Site Master™ models S331D and
S332D. Throughout this manual, the term Site Master will refer to the S331D and S332D.
Model Frequency Range
S331D
S332D
Cable and Antenna Analyzer Mode: 25 to 4000 MHz
Cable and Antenna Analyzer Mode: 25 to 4000 MHz
Spectrum Analyzer Mode: 100 kHz to 3000 MHz
Description
The Site Master model S331D is a hand held cable and antenna analyzer. The Site Master
model S332D is a handheld cable, antenna, and spectrum analyzer. Both models include a
keypad to enter data and a standard daylight-viewable color TFT display to provide graphic
indications of various measurements.
The Site Master is capable of up to 1.5 hours of continuous operation from a fully charged
field-replaceable battery and can be operated from a 12.5 Vdc source. Built-in energy con-
servation features can be used to extend battery life.
The Site Master is designed for measuring Return Loss, SWR, and Cable Loss of cable and
antenna systems from 25 MHz to 4 GHz. Option 2 and Option 16 extend the frequency
range of the cable and antenna analyzer to 2 MHz and 6 GHz respectively. Dis-
tance-To-Fault (DTF) measurements can be used to locate the precise location of a fault
within the feedline system. The Site Master model S332D includes Spectrum Analysis (100
kHz - 3 GHz) and has dedicated routines for common one-button measurements. Options
available with the S331D or S332D include 2-port Transmission Measurements, Bias Tee,
narrow band or wide band power meter, Channel Scanner, Interference Analyzer, GPS, and
T1/E1 Analyzer measurements.
The displayed trace can be scaled or enhanced with frequency markers or limit lines. A
menu option provides for an audible “beep” when the limit value is exceeded. To permit
use in low-light environments, the LCD contrast and backlight intensity can be adjusted.
Standard Accessories
The Handheld Software Tools PC-based software program provides a database record for
storing measurement data. Software Tools can also convert the Site Master display to a
Microsoft Windowsä95/98/NT4/2000/ME/XP workstation graphic. Measurements stored
in the Site Master internal memory can be downloaded to the PC using the included
null-modem serial cable. Once stored, the graphic trace can be displayed, scaled, or en-
hanced with markers and limit lines. Historical graphs can be overlaid with current data,
and underlying data can be extracted and used in spreadsheets or for other analytical tasks.
1-1

The Handheld Software Tools program can display measurements made with the Site Mas-
ter (SWR, return loss, cable loss, distance-to-fault, field strength, occupied bandwidth,
channel power, adjacent channel power and interference analysis) as well as providing
other functions, such as converting display modes and Smith charts. Refer to Chapter 11,
Handheld Software Tools, for more information.

Preventive Maintenance
Site Master preventive maintenance consists of cleaning the unit and inspecting and clean-
ing 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.
CAUTION: To avoid damaging the display or case, do not use solvents or abra-
sive cleaners.
Clean the RF connectors and center pins with a cotton swab dampened with denatured alco-
hol. 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 good, 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,
not stretched, kinked, dented, or broken.
Calibration
The Site Master is a field portable unit operating in the rigors of the test environment. An
Open-Short-Load (OSL) calibration, InstaCal calibration, FlexCal calibration with
open-short-load, or FlexCal calibration with an InstaCal module should be performed prior
to making a measurement in the field (see Calibration, page 3-2). Note that the frequency
range of the InstaCal module, 25 MHz to 4 GHz, makes it not suitable for use with Option 2
or Option 16. A built-in temperature sensor in the Site Master advises the user when the in-
ternal temperature has exceeded a measurement accuracy window, and the user is advised
to perform another calibration in order to maintain the integrity of the measurement.
NOTES:
For best calibration results—compensation for all measurement uncertain-
ties—ensure that the Open/Short/Load is at the end of the test port or optional
extension cable; that is, at the same point that you will connect the antenna or
device to be tested.
For best results, use a phase stable Test Port Extension Cable (see Optional
Accessories). If you use a typical laboratory cable to extend the Site Master test
port to the device under test, cable bending subsequent to the OSL calibration
will cause uncompensated phase reflections inside the cable. Thus, cables
which are NOT phase stable may cause measurement errors that are more pro-
nounced as the test frequency increases.
For optimum calibration, Anritsu recommends using precision calibration com-
ponents.

Chapter 1 General Information

InstaCal Module
The Anritsu InstaCal module can be used in place of discrete components to calibrate the
Site Master. The InstaCal module can be used to perform an Open, Short and Load (OSL)
or a FlexCal calibration procedure. Calibration of the Site Master with the InstaCal takes
approximately 45 seconds (see Calibration, page 3-2). Unlike a discrete calibration compo-
nent, the InstaCal module can not be used at the top of the tower to conduct load or inser-
tion loss measurements. The module operates from 25 MHz to 4 GHz and weighs eight
ounces.
Anritsu recommends annual verification of the InstaCal module to verify performance with
precision instrument data. The verification may be performed at a local Anritsu Service
Center or at the Anritsu factory.
Annual Verification
Anritsu recommends an annual calibration and performance verification of the Site Master
and the OSL calibration components and InstaCal module by local Anritsu service centers.
Anritsu service centers are listed in Table 1-2 on the following page.
The Site Master itself is self-calibrating, meaning that there are no field-adjustable compo-
nents. However, the OSL calibration components are crucial to the integrity of the calibra-
tion and therefore, must be verified periodically to ensure performance conformity. This is
especially important if the OSL calibration components have been accidentally dropped or
over-torqued.
ESD Precautions
The Site Master, like other high performance instruments, is susceptible to ESD damage.
Very often, coaxial cables and antennas build up a static charge, which, if allowed to dis-
charge by connecting to the Site Master, may damage the Site Master input circuitry. Site
Master operators should be aware of the potential for ESD damage and take all necessary
precautions. Operators should exercise practices outlined within industry standards like
JEDEC-625 (EIA-625), MIL-HDBK-263, and MIL-STD-1686, which pertain to ESD and
ESDS devices, equipment, and practices.
As these apply to the Site Master, it is recommended to dissipate any static charges that
may be present before connecting the coaxial cables or antennas to the Site Master. This
may be as simple as temporarily attaching a short or load device to the cable or antenna
prior to attaching to the Site Master. It is important to remember that the operator may also
carry a static charge that can cause damage. Following the practices outlined in the above
standards will insure a safe environment for both personnel and equipment.
Mode References
The term “VNA” in reference to the Site Master denotes cable and antenna analyzer modes.
The term “SPA” in reference to the Site Master denotes Spectrum Analyzer mode. All other
modes are referenced individually.
