Additional measurement functions can be added at the time of purchase, or at the later date in the field as your test needs evolve. Software-enabled product options include RF power meters, an optical power meter, fiber inspection mode, an internal GPS receiver, interference analysis, signal coverage, and more.
The GPS receiver enables the SignalPROFILER to save location coordinates as well as measurement traces.
A bright 8.4-inch color display provides visibility even in broad daylight, while the instrument’s Li-Ion battery delivers more than 6 hours of battery life. The resistive touchscreen and keypad enable users to navigate menus by touch while entering text and numbers directly.
The internal 1GB flash memory can store approximately 5,000 traces or 2,000 setup files. Measurement data and setup files can also be saved to a USB storage device or transferred to PC via LAN cable.
The SiteWorkbench companion software included makes it easy to manage, archive, and analyze current and past measurements, as well as generate and print reports. It also allows you to customize your cable, antenna, and signal standards lists.
With their lightweight, handheld design, ease of use, and rich functionality for testing RF coaxial and fiber-optic feedline and antenna systems as well as characterizing the signal environment, the E7042B & E7062B SignalPROFILERs provide the field engineer’s optimal test solution.
The Deviser software-enabled measurement options can be added at the time of purchase, or at a later date as your test needs evolve – without having to return the product to Deviser Instruments or one of its authorized service centers.
These measurement options are detailed below.
Inline RF High Power Meter (Option DML-015)
The inline RF high power meter option provides true RMS measurements with accurate measurements for both CW and complex digitally modulated signals. It supports a 50M~6GHz frequency range. Option DML-015 does not include the external sensor apparatus (PN: E7000A-0050) necessary for the RF Power Meter.
Internal RF Power Meter, 20MHz – 4.4GHz (Option DML-E7000L-0040)
The Internal Power Meter option provides standard-accuracy RF power testing without the need for external equipment.
Tracking Generator, 25 MHz – 4.0 GHz (Option DML-034)
A tracking generator is a signal generator with an output that tracks or follows the tuning of a spectrum analyzer. This option therefore allows testing of many passive and active electronic components and circuits. The Deviser tracking generator provides state-of-the-art features not seen in other competitive hand-held analyzers, including capabilities such as 0.1 dB power step size, a wide dynamic range, and a power output flatness of ±1 dB. With Option DML-034, users can easily make measurements such as frequency response, gain and return loss (using an external bridge). This option enables a measurement range of 25 MHz – 4.0 GHz.
Must be enabled at an authorized Deviser Instruments service center.
Tracking Generator, 25 MHz – 6.0 GHz (Option DML-036)
A tracking generator is a signal generator with an output that tracks or follows the tuning of a spectrum analyzer. This option therefore allows testing of many passive and active electronic components and circuits. The Deviser tracking generator provides state-of-the-art features not seen in other competitive hand-held analyzers, including capabilities such as 0.1 dB power step size, a wide dynamic range, and a power output flatness of ±1 dB. With Option DML-034, users can easily make measurements such as frequency response, gain and return loss (using an external bridge). This option enables a measurement range of 25 MHz – 6.0 GHz.
Must be enabled at an authorized Deviser Instruments service center.
Interference Analyzer (Option DML-110B)
Many wireless networks operate in complicated signal environments. Three or four base station antennas may be located on the same tower and can create interference problems, which can affect system capacity and coverage. The Deviser Interference Analyzer (option DML-110B) adds seven measurement applications to the spectrum analyzer:
• Spectrogram
• Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI)
• Signal ID (SID)
• Signal Strength
• Interference Location Mapping
• Delta Spectrum
• Digital Persistence Spectrum (DPS)
Fiber Inspection measurement mode (Option DML-DI-1000)
Inspection of fiber optic connections is essential to ensure the performance and longevity of fiber-optic connectivity. Option DML-017L makes it fast and easy to certify that every connection at a cell site is optimized for enduring performance. The E7042B (E7062B) supports the handheld fiber probe (PN: DI-1000LP), which is used to capture video images from the sensor, analyze the images for fiber-end face defects and contamination, and provide reliable PASS/FAIL results to guarantee the performance of your optical connections. The handheld fiber probe is not included with this option.
Signal Coverage Mapping (Option DML-120)
The Signal Coverage Mapping option allows users to map RSSI and ACPR measurements. It is suitable for both indoor and outdoor mapping. The bundled Deviser Map Tools software enables users to create map files with or without GPS information. The files have either a .jmap (outdoor / GeoEmbedded) or .mai (indoor / non-GeoEmbedded) extension, and are fully compatible with Deviser Instruments’ E7042B/E7062B SignalPROFILER hand-held spectrum and cable analyzers. Option DML-120 may use but does not include the Deviser magnetic mount antenna (PN: E7000-0040). It is compatible with option DML-999, GPS functionality. Option DML-120 adds five measurement applications to the spectrum analyzer:
• Indoor SS
• Drive Test SS
• Netclean Test
• TDD-LTE Outdoor
• FDD-LTE Outdoor

The Optical Power Meter mode ensures accuracy and linearity over a wide wavelength range. It can be used for all optical power measurements, such as optical fiber loss measurement and optical device performance evaluation. No separate power meter accessory or additional tools are needed. Included with option DML-OPM is the Visual Fault Indicator (VFL) mode, providing a powerful light source for locating damaged or misapplied fiber.
GPS High Precision (Option DML-999)
The GPS High Precision option can be used to confirm the exact location (longitude, latitude, altitude) of measurement, as well as Universal Time (UT) information. Each trace can be stamped with location information to ensure you are taking measurements at the right location. GPS functionality is required for outdoor / drive test signal coverage surveys, among other applications. Option DML-999 does not include the Deviser GPS-based antenna (PN: BDA700e).
