How to Use this Manual

The operation of the Site Master ™ is straightforward and intuitive.

However, you may find it helpful to review the operation of the keys

and menus prior to first-time use.

Descriptions of the keys and menus, along with measurement proce-

dures, are provided in Chapter 2.

First-time users and maintenance supervisors will benefit from perusing

the material in Chapter 1. This chapter describes the instrument and

provides listings of options and performance specifications.

Please Recycle

This product contains a rechargeable nickel-

cadmium battery. Spent nickel-cadium bat-

teries are valuable resources, do not throw

them away. Arrange for proper return for re-

cycling in your locality. If you do not have

access to proper disposal methods, return the

battery to your ANRITSU service center.

Service centers will dispose of the unit at no

charge. ANRITSU service centers are listed

in Table 2-4 (page 2-52).

General Information

Introduction

This chapter provides description, specification, and optional accesso-

ries for the Site Master Series instruments. This series has two mem-

bers, as shown below. Throughout this manual, the term Site Master

will refer to the series; whereas, the terms Site Master S330A, S331A

will refer to the applicable individual models.

Model Frequency Range

S330A 700 to 3300 MHz

S331A 25 to 3300 MHz

Description

The Site Master (Figure 1-1) is a hand held SWR/RL(standing wave

ratio/return loss) and Distance-To-Fault measurement instrument that

includes a built-in synthesized signal source and an optional power

monitor. It uses a keypad to enter data and a liquid crystal display

(LCD) to provide a graphical indication of SWR or RL over the se-

lected frequency range. The Site Master S331A has a built-in

distance-to-fault capability. The Site Master S330A, as well as model

S331A, allows measurement data to be converted to Fault Location via

the companion Software Tools program. The Site Master is capable of

up to two hours of continuous operation from a fully charged internal

battery. It can also be operated from a 12.5 dc source (which will also

1-1

simultaneously charge the battery). Built-in energy conservation fea-

tures can be used to extend battery life over an eight-hour work day.

The Site Master is designed for measuring SWR, return loss, or cable

insertion loss and locating faulty RF components in antenna systems.

Power monitoring capability is available as an option. The displayed

trace can be scaled and/or enhanced with settable frequency markers

and/or a limit line. A menu option provides for an audible “beep” when

the limit value is exceeded. To permit use in low-light environments,

the LCD can be back lit using a front panel key.

Standard Accessories

A PC based software program (called Software Tools) provides an on-

line database record for storing measurement data. Site Master Soft-

ware Tools can also convert the Site Master display to a Microsoft

Windows 3.x graphic. Measurements stored in the Site Master internal

memory are down-loaded to the PC using the included serial cable.

This null-modem serial cable connects between the Serial Interface

connector on the Site Master and a Com Port on a DOS/Windows-

based PC. Once stored, the graphic trace can then be displayed, scaled,

and/or enhanced with markers and limit lines. Historical graphs can be

overlaid with current data by using the PC's mouse in “drag-n-drop”

fashion. The underlying data can be extracted and used in spreadsheets

or for other analytical tasks.

The Software Tools program also performs DTF (Distance To Fault) or

Fault Location by clicking on the appropriate icon.
