Transmitter Modulation Fidelity Testing
Connect the IFR 2975 and Codan Radio as shown in Figure 5-33.
Figure 5-33: Transmitter Modulation Fidelity Testing
On the IFR 2975, recall Codan setup 9 (Tx_ModFid) from your internal drive. Enter the correct RF
frequency on the IFR 2975 and set the transmitter front panel switch to NORM. The MIC MODE switch
on the front panel can be set to either Digital or Analog (this test does not make use of the front panel
switch).
In the transmitter RSS, enter the Service section and click on “Test Patterns”. Ensure the transmitter
frequency is in the frequency box. In the Select Pattern window select “C4FM Modulation Fidelity”.
Click on the “Key Tx” button as shown in Figure 5-34 and the transmitter will begin generating the test
pattern out the RF output.
