The CW Signal Generator provides a continuous wave (CW) signal from the Signal Generator Out port of the LMR Master. The CW signal is primarily used for testing the sensitivity of receivers. To test receiver sensitivity, connect the output directly to the receiver that is being measured, and then reduce the signal generator amplitude until the receiver is unable to detect the signal.
Note
CW Output is turned on by default when entering CW Signal Generator mode and automatically turned off when exiting CW Signal Generator mode.
1. Set the instrument to CW Signal Generator mode as described in the previous section.
2. Press the Freq main menu key and set the transmit frequency of the CW signal.
3. Press the Amplitude main menu key and set the Power Level and Offset. Add a positive value offset value for any external gain or negative offset value for any external loss.
4. Press the Turn Sign-Gen OFF main menu key to stop transmitting.
