Testing the outgoing (mobile-originated) call
This test checks if the mobile is capable of correctly accepting dialed digits (that is, the keypad is tested) and if it can
initiate a call. It is also a typical way to start measurements.
1. Insert a Test SIM in the mobile phone and connect the phone to the 2201R as depicted in ’Connecting the
device under test’ on page32.
2. From the start menu, select GSM.
The GSM Tests menu appears.
3. Select a base channel (BCCH) and a traffic channel (TCH) in the frequency band of interest (see Table 7 on
page 42).
4. Select an RF output power in the 2201R that is sufficiently high to allow the mobile phone to find the carrier,
which is typically well above –100 dBm.
5. Ensure that the coupling is selected properly. Refer to ’Testing multiband phones’ on page52 for more
information.
6. Switch on the mobile phone, and wait until it indicates that it has found a base station.
7. Enter a number on the phone that comprises all the numerical digits (for example, “0123456789*#”), and push
the Call button on the phone.
The phone sets up a call with the 2201R. The signaling status changes and measurements are performed.
