Test Steps and Description
Measure Zigbee Tx Power
This test step measures the transmit power of the Zigbee DUT.
Step Settings
– Power Lower and Upper Limits: The power limit set must be within the range set in 'Lower and Upper
Trigger Power Level' or 10 to -30 dBm (whichever comes first) for the step to report a 'Pass'. Each Tx
power reading will be evaluated as 'Pass' or 'Fail' before it is used to calculate the Average, Maximum
and Minimum in Power Statistics.
– Lower and Upper Trigger Power Levels: Set the power level as the trigger point for the 34999B
module to begin measuring power. The transmit (Tx) power of the DUT must be within 10 to -30 dBm
for this test step to show 'Pass' results.
– Meas. Window Time: Set the maximum Window Time for signal acquisition. Range from 1500 to
150,000 milliseconds. For example, setting the Window Time at 50 seconds would mean that you will
need to reset the DUT within 50 seconds to disconnect the DUT from any network and resume
beaconing before the 34999B module performs power measurement to the DUT.
– Channel: This setting will use the same Zigbee channel selected at
– System Offsets: See the description of System Offsets in
. This setting is exclusive to
Measure Zigbee Tx Power.
– Reading Count: Set the number of readings to be acquired.
– Gate Above and Below: Set the boundary (in percentage) of the results to be taken into calculation.
For example, setting the reading count at 10 with Gate above as 10% and below as 90% will only
consider the second reading till the ninth to compute the average, maximum and minimum Tx power
below.
– Power Statistic: List the computed average, maximum, and minimum Tx power based on data points
recorded within 'Lower and Upper Trigger Power Level' set, according to the reading count set.
