GENERAL SAFETY SUMMARY
Review the following safety precautions to avoid operator's injury and loss of life and prevent
damage and deterioration to this instrument. To avoid potential hazards, use this product as
specified.
WARNING
■ Warnings on the Cases and Panels of the Instrument
Operator should not remove any cases or panel for any reasons. If you touch inside the
instrument it could result personal shock or fire hazard. Refrain from spilling any liquid
on or inserting anything flammables or piece of metal into the ventilation of the instrument.
Such actions could cause fire, shock, malfunction and be an accident hazard while the
power is on.
■ Warnings on Power Line
● Make sure to connect only to the rated power line voltage. Excess voltage may
cause fire.
Confirm the voltage of the commercial power line before connecting the AC power
cord. The power frequency of the power line should be 50/60 Hz.
● Warning on the Power Cord
Use only the optional power cord that is attached to this instrument. The use of the
power cord other than that attached could cause fire hazard.
If the attached cord is damaged stop using it and contact your local Leader agent.
Should you use a damaged cord, it could cause a shock or create a fire hazard. When
you pull out the cord be sure to hold it by plug and pull from the socket not by holding
the cord wire.
■ Warning on Fuse
When the fuse is melted the instrument stops operation. If the fuse melted, turn off the
power switch and disconnect the power plug from the socket. If you change the fuse
while the cord is connected to the socket, it could cause a shock hazard. Only use the
specified type and rated current and voltage fuses.
If the cause for melting fuse is unclear or if you suspect there is damage to the instrument
or if you have no proper fuse at hand please contact your local Leader agent.

■ Warning while Operating
While operating the instrument in smoke, fire, or a bad smell, occurs, turn off the
instrument at once for it could cause a fire hazard. When such a case occurs, turn off the
power switch and pull the plug of the cord from the plug socket. Contact your local Leader
agent after confirming there is no fire.
■ Warning about Ground
The instrument has a ground terminal to avoid electric shock hazard and to protect the
instrument from damage. Ensure that the product is properly grounded for safe operation.

2. SPECIFICATIONS
2.1 Description
The LG 3803 8VSB/QAM Signal Generator, conforms to 8VSB (digital terrestrial TV in
USA System) and 64QAM/256QAM (CATV) standards, features a channel coding,
modulation, C/N generator, and up converter in a single package. Consequently, the
modulated signal covering VHF and UHF channels can be output.
Providing pseudo random signal (PN) and BER counter can perform BER measurement of
receivers and tuners with a signal unit.
In addition to the internal TS signal, the external MPEG-2 TS can be used to evaluate
video, and sound quality. Such powerful features are ideal for total evaluation of a
reception system.
2.2 Features
• All-in-one
This instrument features the signal generator capability and BER measurement
capability in a single package.

to the top menu.
(4) There are two setting methods:
・For the items set on the CODING menu, data is entered when the UP MENU key is
pressed to return to upper hierarchical layer or to the top menu.
・For other items {level, channel (frequency), C/N, etc.}, data is directly entered when
the value or settings are changed.

*About REMOTE CONTROL connector
• Do not apply external voltage to the output pins except Alarm pin.
• All pins are pulled up to +3.3 V. When externally control this instrument, do not apply
voltage exceeding +5.0 V or negative voltages.
*Recalling preset conditions via the REMOTE CONTROL connector
• The preset conditions between the Begin and End address can be recalled by using
the INC/DEC pins. The INC, DEC, and RETURN pins are Low active. Assert for at
least one second.
• After setting is performed, wait for at least one second for the next setting.
*GO/NO-GO output pins
• Outputs TTL High or Low for GO/NO-GO judgement.
*Alarm output pin
• Outputs OR of three types of alarms displayed on the top screen in negative logic.
Since the open collector output is used, pull up the circuit for connection.
*Operation while using GPIB and Ethernet
• The REMOTE CONTROL connector is enabled even when operating the instrument
via the GPIB (in remote control mode) and Ethernet. When the REMOTE CONTROL
connector is not used, disconnect any equipment from the connector.

8. GPIB
Since this instrument provides the GPIB (IEEE 488) connector as standard, major functions
can be remotely controlled via the GPIB interface.
Note
The GPIB capability of this instrument is confirmed by using the GPIB board (PCI-GPIB,
PCMCIA-GPIB) manufactured by National Instruments Corporation (NI). If other than
the board mentioned above is used, operation may differ from the instructions in this
manual. Therefore, the board mentioned above should be used when controlling this
instrument.

The Clear and Reset modes can be controlled by using the commands.
The followings describe the reply for the clear and reset operations.
(1) IFC (Interface clear)
Reply of the universal command (IFC) is listed below.
• Cancels specified talker and listener.
• GPIB buffer and waiting command remain as is.
• Remote control conditions remain as is.
• Front panel control settings remain as is.
(2) DCL, SDC (Device clear)
Reply of the universal command (DCL) and address command (SDC) are listed below.
• Clears the GPIB buffer and waiting command.

(3) Returning power on
When the power is turned on again, the following operation is performed.
• Cancels specified talker and listener.
• Clears the GPIB buffer and waiting command.
• Enables the local control mode.
• Displays the top screen regardless of the display before turning power off.
8.6 REMOTE/LOCAL
The remote or local control mode can be selected by using the system controller and
REMOTE key. Either remote or local control mode is always selected. Each status is
described below.
(1) Local control mode
The local control mode is selected under the following conditions:
(a) Power is turned on. (Immediately after the instrument starts.)
(b) The REMOTE LED is turned off by pressing the REMOTE key.
(c) When GTL command is received.
(d) Remote control mode is canceled.
(2) Remote control mode
The remote control mode is enabled when the REN is in the truth state and this
instrument is set to the listener. The REMOTE LED lights. In remote control
mode, all front panel keys except the POWER switch and REMOTE key are
disabled.
The instrument can be controlled via the ETHER connector. The REMOTE
CONTROL connector can also be used to control this instrument. When the GPIB
capability is enabled, do not connect the equipment (e.g., personal computer) to
the ETHER or REMOTE CONTROL connector.

9. ETHERNET
9.1 Connection
When constructing the network system via the ETHER connector, use a STP cable
conforming to 100BASE-TX standards.
Use a straight cable when connecting the network via a hub. Use a cross cable when
connecting a personal computer.
Network manager should set the TCP/IP of this instrument according to your local network
environments.
9.2 Operating with Personal Computer
Use the TELNET when remotely controlling the LG 3803 by using a commuter. To startup
the TELNET, refer to the personal computer instruction manual.
*Starting TELNET with the Windows 2000
① Select TELNET from the START menu.
② When IP address assigned to the LG 3803 is "192.168.0.1," enter "TELNET
192.168.0.1."
③ The LG 3803 and TELNET is now connected.
When TELNET is started, "login:" is displayed. Enter "lg3803."
When "Password" is displayed, enter "lg3803."
The login name and password cannot be changed.
Prefix "rem" to the command listed in Tables 8-4 and 8-5 for run the system. Attach "?"
after the command to read setting value.
Example 1: When setting the frequency to 500 MHz, output level to -60 dBm,
proceed as follows:
rem □RF □500 ENTER
rem □LM □-60 ENTER
* □is a space. Enter a space between header and data code.
Example 2: When reading the channel being set, proceed as follows:
rem □CH □ ? ENTER
*Enter a space between header, data code, and "?."
Notes on using Ethernet
This instrument can be controlled via the Ethernet even when operating via the GPIB
interface, or REMOTE CONTROL mode is in operation. When Ethernet is only used,
disconnect other cables.
*Windows is a registered trademark of Microsoft Corporation.
Operation of this instrument is confirmed by using Windows 2000 (SP2), however, the
system may operate incorrectly depending on the personal computer environments.
