b)
If there is no direct source for providing data, test data can be entered manually
using the
Load Timed Transmission Message Buffer.
>TDT=12232,12.00,33.98
: the message can be random values
>OK
4) Confirm the message details.
>TBD
: Timed Transmission message buffer read
Timed Message Length = 18 bytes
: transmitter returns number of bytes and content
Timed Message is:
12232,12.00,33.98
OK
Note: if data was manually entered, the timed message should match that data
5) Prior to the scheduled transmission time, check that the Data buffer LED is lit to indicate
that data is in the message buffer. Once the data is loaded into the transmit buffer for
encoding the LED will turn off.
6) At transmission time check the Transmission Indicator LED. It should light up when the
transmission is underway.
7) Once the Transmission Indicator LED is extinguished, check the status of the transmitted
message.
>LTXS
: Get last transmission status
Tx Status: OK
: transmitter returns the following information
Tx Type: Self Timed
Last Tx Length: 18 bytes
Last Tx Start Time: 2015/03/19 18:00:25
Last Tx Stop Time: 2015/03/19 18:00:26
Forward Power: 32.2 dBm
Reflected Power: 2.1 dBm
SWR: 1.06
Power Supply: 15.3 V
Note that message centering was enabled so the transmission start time is in the middle of
the 18:00:20 ten second transmission window (Last Tx Start Time indicates 18:00:25)
8) Once you have confirmed that the transmission was successful and the data was
transmitted correctly, ensure the EBM is returned to EBM=Y (if that is the desired setting).
9) Close the HyperTerminal text file capture and disconnect from the Communication Port.
