4.3.3 RF Data Link Test
A link test between a mobile and a known base station can be done using the WinRIS "Address"
and "Send" functions. The “Address” and “Device” fields, the “Send” button and the “Chat” mes-
sage screen are used to send messages to specific mobile or base or to carry out RF test. Start by
entering the address of the mobile (or base station) you wish to send a test message to or test:
1-
Specify the address:
Addresses may be entered by typing directly in the “Address” field in two ways:
-
Numerically, the valid address range is 1-126.
-
As an “Alpha-Mapped-Nibble” (AMN) address, consisting of upper case letters in the
range A-P. The valid address range is A to GN.
-
The base address is usually: 1.
-
The program may display one of the following messages on the status bar:
-
For Paragon products:
“address is not in AMN or number format”
-
For mobile products:
“address is not in the range A – GN”
In either case, check that the address entered is within the acceptable range, is of a valid for-
mat, and correctly typed.
2-
Enter the Device number for mobile (or base station).
3-
Press the Send button.
The Chat window reports “Sent to xx mobile”
(where xx is mobile name)
.
If test is successful:
Status line reports “Delivery confirmed.
If test unsuccessful:
Chat window reports “Waiting”,
Then the Status line reports “Delivery Failed”.
