Zeroing the
Average Power
Meter

Before establishing a call, zero the average power meter by selecting the

Power

Meter

Zero

field on the DCCH CALL CONFIGURE screen. (See

“Zeroing the

Average Power Meter” on page 35

). Once zeroed, measurement accuracy is

typically

5% or 0.2dB.

Understanding the
Max Abs
Measurement

Max Abs

is a measure of the power into the analog to digital converter (ADC) at

the input of the Cellular Adapter. It is displayed as an aid to troubleshoot
measurement problems. If this level drops below

−

20dB, or goes above

−

1dB, the

level into the ADC is too low or too high and will cause inaccurate measurements.

Max Abs is affected by the transmitter’s power into the Test Set and by the

Pwr

Gain

setting. If you select

Pwr Gain - Auto

, then

Max Abs

will automatically

remain within the proper limits if the transmitted level is high enough (but not too
high).

Auto

is the recommended setting. If you select

Pwr Gain - Hold

, then

you must adjust the gain by selecting a setting from the

Choices

menu.

Max Abs

must remain between

−

1 and

−

20 dB.

Measuring Average
Power on an Active
Traffic Channel

1. Access the CALL CONTROL screen.
2. Establish a call between the mobile and the Test System on a digital traffic channel.

When established, the

Connect

indicator on the CALL CONTROL screen is ‘‘lit’’

and the

Traffic Chan Assignment

Type:

indicates DTC. See

“Registration” on page 93

3. Select

Meas

from the

Data/Meas

field.

4. Select

Avg Pwr

from the

Choices

menu.

5. The average power is displayed.
