TEST PROCEDURES
Fig. 5-1-B-1 Levels test set-up
Minimum 'ON' level
(1) Connect the test equipment as shown in Fig. 5-1-B-1.
(2) Set the UUT to [RF level] 0 dBm [Carrier freq.] 10 MHz and [Pulse Mod.].
(3) Set the function generator to give +3.5 V DC. The 0 dBm level should now
appear on the power meter.
Maximum 'OFF' level
(4) Set the function generator to give 1.0 V DC. The 0 dBm level should now
disappear from the power meter.
