3.4.2 Contrast
This parameter controls the screen contrast on the DRV3 Lite’s display. Contrast values
varies from 0 (least contrast) to 9 (highest contrast). The default value is set at 5.
3.4.3 Mid-Band Parameters
These parameters dene how the DRV3 Lite detects leakage in the Mid band. In most
cases, they must match those of the DSG1 signal generator located at the headend. There
are four parameters, which can be set using the up/down arrow, or directly entered into
corresponding eld:
• Mid : Clicking the Mid icon allows you to toggle to ON/OFF the Mid measurement.
• Frequency: From 118-140 MHz.
•Leak threshold: Minimum leakage detection level in uV/m, from 1 to 200 µV/m.
Default value is set at 20 µV/m. When a leak is detected, a sound will be generated
from the speaker, if the function is enabled.
•QAM offset: Relative level in dB of the generated DSG1 signal at the HE location
compared to the adjacent QAM level. Offset is calculated using the QAM_Level
Generated_level. As an example, if the DSG1 signal is set at -25dBc from the
adjacent QAM level measured in a 6 MHz bandwidth, the DRV3 Lite QAM offset
DRV3 Lite readings in PT (Pressure Test) mode

setting will be set at -25. The QAM offset can be adjusted from -99 to 99 dB.
Default value is set at 0 dB.
NOTE 1
At least one band (MID or LTE) must be toggled to the ON position.
NOTE 2
When only one band is in operation, the DRV3 Lite RF reading will be
recentered in the display for the selected band.
3.4.4 LTE Band Parameters
These parameters dene how the DRV3 Lite detects leakage in the LTE band. In most
cases, they must match those of the DSG1 signal generator located at the headend. There
are four parameters, which can be set using the up/down arrow, or directly entered into
corresponding eld:
• LTE : Clicking the LTE icon allows you to toggle to ON/OFF the LTE measurement.
• Frequency: From 600-860 MHz.
•Leak threshold: Minimum leakage detection level in uV/m, from 1 to 200 µV/m.
Default value is set at 20 µV/m. When a leak is detected, a sound will be generated
from the speaker, if the function is enabled.
•QAM offset: Relative level in dB of the generated DSG1 signal at the HE location
compared to the adjacent QAM level. Offset is calculated using the QAM_Level
ñ Generated_level. As an example, if the DSG1 signal is set at -25dBc from the
adjacent QAM level measured in a 6 MHz bandwidth, the DRV3 Lite QAM offset
setting will be set at -25. The QAM offset can be adjusted from -99 to 99 dB.
Default value is set at 0 dB.
3.4.5 Tag Mode
In order to use the DRV3 Liteís channel tag detection feature, you must have a channel tagger
device, such as the DSG1 or DSG1 Lite, which inserts a tag into the specied frequencies
carried on the CATV network. Channel tagging is commonly used in areas where more than
one cable operator is active, allowing each operator to identify the leaks, which are under
his responsibility.
In order to allow the DRV3 Lite to recognize channel tags, you must congure the DRV3
Lite channel tag detection parameters to the same settings used by the headend channel
tagger. The DRV3 Lite supports AM tag detection with modulation frequencies varying from
20 Hz to 110 Hz. You can also adjust the detection sensitivity of the channel tag to allow
the DRV3 Lite to discriminate between channel noise and the tag signal (Sens: from 1 to
99. Recommended value = 21). The DRV3 Lite also supports DSB-SC tag detection with
modulation frequencies varying from 3500Hz to 7000Hz. Once properly set up, you can
enable and disable the channel tag detection feature, as may be needed when working in
different areas.
To disable the channel tag detection feature, select the OFF button. The others elds will be
ignored.
To enable the AM channel tag detection feature, select the AM button. Also, set the Sens. and
modulation frequency to match the signal generator. The value entered in the Hz numerical
box (3-110 Hz).
To enable DSB-SC mode, select the DS button. Also, the DSB spacing to match the generator.
The value entered in the Hz numerical box (0-9960 Hz), by 40 Hz step. In this mode, the Sens
value is ignored.
A DRV3 Lite can also be congured to detect leaking NTSC video signals in mid-band. To
enable this mode, select the VD (Video DSB-SC) button. The LTE band will look for a DSB-SC
tag and the tag can be set like in DSB-SC mode
When the tag detection feature is enabled and the DRV3 Lite detects a leak, the letter ‘t’
appears on the main measurement mode screen. If the measured leak level is greater than
the leak threshold, the letter ‘t’ is replaced by the speaker symbol and the DRV3-lite emits
a sound.
3.4.6 Proximity
The proximity setting is used to apply a distance correction factor when detecting leaks.
The proximity setting corresponds to the estimated distance between the DRV3 Lite and
the leakage source, in order to provide a reading equivalent to a 10ft/3m distance. When
a proximity setting is used, the DRV3 Lite calculates the appropriate gain to provide a
normalized reading as if measured at a 10ft/3m distance. Possible distance values are
10ft/3m (default value), 30ft/10m and 80ft/25m.
3.4.7 Sound
Select the sound level by clicking the ON/OFF button:
• OFF: Speaker is disabled
• ON: Speaker is enabled when a leak is detected
3.4.8 Mode at Startup
Dene the operation mode when the DRV3 Lite is started:

•System: Mode that uses the parameters dened in the DRV3 Lite Settings
Application.
• PT (‘‘pressure test’’): Mode that uses the same parameters of the DSG1 Lite.
NOTE
In PT mode, the RF measurements are displayed in reverse contrast
(background is black, with white characters), while in system mode, the RF
measurements are displayed in normal contrast (background is white with
black characters).
NOTE
Rules Governing Sound
In addition to the detection threshold criteria, there are some tag detection
rules associated with the DRV3 Lite’s audible tone function. If you are using
channel tags for specic CATV network identication, the DRV3 Lite will take
these tags into account before generating a tone when leakage is detected at
a given frequency.

5.1 DRV3 Lite Parameters
The DRV3 Lite parameters are set using an external application such as the DRV3 Lite
settings via the USB or Bluetooth connection. The following sections describe how to set up
the DRV3 Lite parameters.
5.2 Reading the Measurement Mode Screen
DRV3 Lite starts up in measurement mode by default. It simultaneously monitors the selected
frequencies in the mid-band and the LTE band, unless the DRV3 Lite was set up for single
band detection. When the tag detection feature is enabled and the DRV3 Lite detects the tag
in the frequency it is monitoring, the symbol speaker appears on the screen when the level
is superior to detection level.
The top portion of the screen displays the following information from left to right:
Volume
Displays if the reference volume level for audible alert is On (m) or Off (m) when leaks are
detected, which exceed the detection threshold criteria.
Button Feedback
Button Feedback is usefull to change of one fonction to another. See section 5.4. When the
multifunction button is pressed, the volume icon is replaced by a “click” counter button to
provide user feedback. If there is a Bluetooth or USB connection, button is disabled.
Bluetooth

icon appears in black. When there is no Bluetooth connectivity, the Bluetooth icon appears in
white with a black background.
USB

Pressure Test
Displays if the DRV3 Lite is in ‘‘pressure test’’ mode. In PT mode, readings are shown in white
on a black background.
Battery

that the battery pack is charged. The battery icon is displayed only when the battery level is
low, in charge or defect.

increases with signal strength. You can enable or disable the audio functionality by pressing
