Chapter 3, Programming the PCS Interface using GPIB Control
Overview of Programming Issues
System
Connections
NOTE:
It is assumed that all connections between the Test Set and Cellular Adapter have been
made. Refer to the
User’s Guide
for your Cellular Adapter for instructions on connecting
it to the Test Set.
For connections between the Test Set and PCS Interface, refer to chapter 2,
"Installation".
UUT Port Selection
The PCS Interface has two ports available for UUT connection; the RF IN/OUT
port and the RF OUT only port. Use the PCS Interface’s RF IN/OUT port for
single-port devices (for example, a subscriber unit) or its RF OUT only port for
devices with separate RX and TX ports (for example, a base station).
Frequency Setting
The PCS Interface provides a PCS frequency generator by upconverting the Test
Set’s generator signal with a stepped local oscillator (LO) and mixer. It down-
converts a PCS frequency transmitter signal for analysis by the Test Set using a
fixed frequency LO and mixer. For convenience, conversion bypass paths are also
provided which eliminate any connection changes when testing devices in the 800
to 960 MHz band.
