Radio Test
The Radio Test functions are a collection of tools useful for testing the
RF performance of the transceiver. It provides a way to key (activate)
the transmitter, measure power output, run a spectrum test, and enable
the built-in RTU simulator.
RTU Simulator The unit’s built-in RTU simulator generates random data similar to what
would be supplied by an external RTU connected to the radio. It is
useful for system testing within the radio network by providing realistic
data to pass over the radio channel.
