217 7 Demod Error E This error is normally generated because of one of the 
following reasons: 
1. There is no carrier signal.
2. Walsh channels other than the pilot are 
active. 
3. There is some other modulation problem 
that will prevent the measurement from 
being made.
This problem must be corrected before the 
measurement can continue.
cdma 2000 & W-CDMA: Cannot correlate to the input 
signal and no active channel is found. (from composite 
EVM measurement) An active channel must meet the 
default threshold criteria that it is within 20dB of the 
highest power code channel. The threshold can be 
changed using the active set threshold function in the 
Meas Setup menu.
cdmaOne: A correlation failure with the pilot CDMA 
channel occurred during synchronous demodulation.
1xEV-DO: Cannot correlate to the input signal and no 
active channel is found. (from composite EVM 
measurement) An active channel must meet the default 
threshold criteria that it is within 20dB of the highest 
power code channel. The threshold can be changed 
using the active set threshold function in the Meas 
Setup menu.
In PSA, this error was reported as one of the following 
error numbers: 10872, 10962, 13070, 10228, 10768
217 7 Demod Error;Can’t 
correlate
E Cannot correlate to the input signal and no active 
channel is found. (from composite EVM measurement) 
An active channel must meet the default threshold 
criteria that it is within 20dB of the highest power code 
channel. The threshold can be changed using the active 
set threshold function in the Meas Setup menu.
217 7 Demod Error;Data 
interval too 
short
E There are not enough input I/Q pairs for the 
measurement calculation. This may be caused by an 
incorrect data capture.
