Running a zone Health Check
Analyze every frequency in the zone against the current RF environment and see exactly why each problem frequency fails — band plans, TV channels, IMD spacing, exclusions, and more.
Health Check answers the question “is my plan still valid right now?” It re-tests the zone’s frequencies against the current TV channels, exclusions, scan data, band plans, and neighbor frequencies, and itemizes every violation it finds.
Run a Health Check
Section titled “Run a Health Check”- In the zone toolbar, click Health Check. The Health Check modal opens for the current zone and analyzes immediately.
- Review the results — each problem frequency lists its issues by type:
- Direct Hit — conflicts with another frequency’s spacing
- IMD Spacing — intermodulation products land too close
- Broadcast Channel — inside an active TV channel
- Exclusion Range / Exclusion Threshold — inside a blocked range, or above the scan-data threshold
- Band Plan / Isolated Band Plan — outside the assigned band plan’s ranges
- Frequency Range / Not Tunable — outside what the equipment can tune
- Use the filter (All / Incompatible only) to focus, and the refresh button (Reanalyze frequencies in this zone) after you change anything.
Let it update statuses — or not
Section titled “Let it update statuses — or not”The Frequency status setting controls whether the analysis writes back:
- Allow Health Check to update frequency status — frequencies that fail get marked incompatible (and fixed ones recover).
- Do not allow Health Check to update frequency status — analysis is purely informational; nothing in the coordination list changes.
Reset Status reverts the status changes the Health Check made, if you let it update and want that undone.
After the check
Section titled “After the check”- Recalculate the failures — see Recalculating frequencies.
- Park what can’t be fixed — see Ignoring frequencies.
- Dig into a single frequency’s conflicts by hand — see Manually analyzing incompatible frequencies.
