In principle, a signaling test session involves the following steps.
1. Connect your MS to the R&S CMW500, preferably using one of the bidirectional RF
connectors RF 1 COM or RF 2 COM at the front panel.
2. Open the signaling firmware application and click/press ON | OFF until the signaling
control softkey indicates the ON state.
3. After the mobile has completed registration, set up a call from the mobile (call setup
occurs automatically in some applications, e.g. "WiMAX Signaling"). Wait until the
R&S CMW500 indicates that the call/connection has been established.
4. Perform any of the measurements included in the signaling application or related TX
tests.
The R&S CMW500 supports signaling applications for various network standards. The
features are largely standard-dependent. For an introduction and general hints on each
of the applications refer to the first sections, "General Description", in the relevant chap-
ters. The general features of the signaling applications are described in section chap-
ter 4.4, "Signaling Applications", on page 79.
The following figure shows the "WCDMA FDD Signaling" main view with an established
circuit switched connection.
