5.5.3.1 Service Monitor Setting
1. Initial setup using the 8920A RF Communications Test Set
a. Connect “RF IN/OUT” port on 8920A to RF adaptor on radio’s antenna port using a N-Type to
BNC cable. Connect “AUDIO OUT” on 8920A to “Tx MOD” on test box using a BNC to BNC
cable. Connect the rest according to Figure 5-2. Radio Tuning Setup.
b. On 8920A, select “Tx” under “SCREEN CONTROL”.
c. Using the “CURSOR CONTROL”, key in the following items:
i. Tune Mode: Auto
ii. Tune Freq: Depends on Tune Mode
-Once “Auto” is selected, the centre frequency is set to the strongest RF signal
-Once “Manual” is selected, desired frequency has to be entered manually
