The instrument stores the five test models specified in the 3GPP specification (TS 125.141) for testing base station performance and recalls these models for quick easy measurements. After selection of a test model, the instrument displays test results in tabular format with clear PASS or FAIL indications that include min/max threshold.
Using Master Software Tools, a custom test list can be created and downloaded into the instrument. All critical parameters can be selected for pass/fail testing, including each individual code power level, the spreading factor and symbol EVM.
Pass/Fail Mode Procedure
1. Connect the appropriate antenna to the RF In connector to make OTA measurements.
2. Press the Measurements main menu key.
3. Press the Pass/Fail Mode submenu key to display the pass/fail mode menu.
4. Press the Select Pass/Fail Test submenu key and select the applicable Test Model to activate the measurement (Figure: Pass/Fail Mode).
