Installing the PCS
Interface
The PCS Interface is connected by a serial cable to the Test Set. Interface control
is provided by the Test Set’s internal IBASIC controller. The timebase reference
for the PCS Interface (and Cellular Adapter) comes from the Test Set. No Frame
Clock connection is needed.
System Connectivity software is used to verify operation after connecting the PCS
Interface to the Test System. The software is run from the PCMCIA card shipped
with the PCS interface. Be sure to set the HP-IB/Serial switch on the PCS
Interface to the
Ser
position before turning the PCS Interface on and running the
test. During the test, you are asked to select serial or HP-IB control of the
interface. Select Serial Control and follow the remaining instructions displayed on
the Test Set’s screen.
Instructions for connecting the PCS Interface and running the connectivity
software are provided in the HP 83236B PCS Interface Operating Manual
shipped with the interface. Connections to the interface are provided in
“PCS
Interface Connections” on page 288 .
IMPORTANT:
TURNING ON THE
PCS INTERFACE In order for the Test Set to detect the connected PCS Interface, the PCS Interface must
already be turned on while the Test Set is powering up.
