Obtaining Measurement Results
Setting Up a Call
To obtain CDMA measurements, the Test Set must have the MSUT (Mobile
Station Under Test) on a call (the Connected annunciator on the CDMA CALL
CONTROL screen is lit when the MSUT is on a call).
The procedure for setting up a call is provided in “Setting Up a Call”, found in the HP
8924C Application Guide
. In the HP 8924C Application Guide, there are also
procedures for performing CDMA tests.
Triggering and Displaying Measurements
When operated over the front panel (local control), Test Set measurement results
are obtained by selecting a screen that displays the desired measurement, arming
the measurement if necessary, and observing the displayed value.
When operated remotely, measurement results are obtained via HP-IB by
triggering a measurement if necessary and querying the desired measurement
field.
NOTE: In CDMA mode, transmitter (TX) measurements and receiver (RX) measurements can
run concurrently. For example, an Average Power or Channel Power measurement
can be queried while the RX TEST screen is selected and an FER measurement is
running.
For a detailed description of triggering measurements, see
"Triggering and
Displaying Measurements" on page 30
