Before you can use the Test Set to perform call processing tasks, it must be
configured to emulate the base station.
Use the following procedures to prepare the Cellular Adapter to emulate a base
station.
How to emulate a base station
A Access the DCCH CALL CONTROL screen. See
“A. How to access the DCCH
CALL CONTROL screen” on page 65
B Set up the basic channel parameters. See
“B. Make the following settings on the
CALL CONTROL screen:” on page 65
C Define the type of mobile you are testing (PCS or cellular) and compensate for temper-
ature variation if a PCS Interface is present. See
“C. Make the following settings on
the CAll CONFIGURE II screen:” on page 66
D Put the Test Set in Active state to emulate a base station. See
“D. Put the Test Set in
Active state to emulate a base station” on page 67
Once you have the Test Set configured, you are ready to perform call processing tasks
such as origination, registration, and so on.
PCS OPERATION If you are using the PCS Interface, be sure to turn on the interface before turning on the Test
Set. Also, set the
PCS Mode
field on the CONFIGURE screen to

before accessing the
CALL CONTROL screen to test a mobile.
SAVING YOUR TEST
SYSTEM
CONFIGURATION After configuring the Test System to meet your test needs, you can save the configura-
tion for later use in a SAVE/RECALL register. This eliminates the need to manually
reconfigure the Test System each time you use it.
There are two ways to save your test configuration:
1) Press SHIFT, RECALL (SAVE), and enter a name (such as DCCH_PCS). The next
time you turn the Test System on, you can press RECALL and select the name you
entered. The Test System returns to the same state it was at when you saved the set-
tings.
2) Press SHIFT, RECALL (SAVE), and enter the name “POWERON”. The next time
you turn the Test System on, the Test System will automatically re-establish all set-
tings you saved.
