Tap Port Return Levels
To provide field crews with information about the return levels at the taps in a design, the following fields need to be added to the as-built and proposed RF tap feature classes in your GIS database:
-
ReturnSignalHighFrequency - Data Type: double. Precision: 38. Scale 8
-
ReturnSignalHighLevel - Data Type: double. Precision: 38. Scale 8
-
ReturnSignalLowFrequency - Data Type: double. Precision: 38. Scale 8
-
ReturnSignalLowLevel - Data Type: double. Precision: 38. Scale 8
These fields write to the GIS the signal strength at the high and low Tracked Return Frequencies shown in the Tap Properties section.
The image below shows Signal Information for a tap that has been selected in the map in the DHFC application. The current project file has a 42 MHz (High) and 5 MHz (Low) Tracked Return Frequency for taps, as shown in the image above. So, you can see that at 42 MHz, 39.28 dBmV is written to the GIS, and at 5 MHz, 38.96 dBmV is written to the GIS.
