Chapter 1 Overview
Menu fields
22 WCDMA Options Version 6.20
– The two lower areas of the menu are both on dark blue background.
The left one is the test parameters area. On this area, you will find entry
fields that allow you to instantly alter relevant test parameters without
being forced to navigate to some parameters menu first.
The area on the right-hand side is called the status area. Here, the 4400 tells
you if the current test has passed or failed. Furthermore, the signaling status
will be shown in this area.
–The softkey area forms the bottom of a menu. With the help of the seven
softkeys you can directly call a system parameters menu, start special test
functions or zoom the test display.
–The marker tabs area on the right-hand side of the menu carries the labels
of the seven marker tabs. They provide access e.g. to different tests.
Menu fields
In the menus of the 4400, we use two different types of fields:
–An Entry field is what we call a field that is accessible by the cursor and
accepts an entry. Entry fields are mainly used to enter test parameters. There
are entry fields that only accept numeric inputs (like e.g. a channel number)
and there are entry fields that accept alphanumeric data (like e.g. an SMS
text).
There are also two special forms of entry fields: the so-called selection
fields where you may select one of several predefined possibilities (e.g. what
bit class(es) you want to use for a bit error rate measurement) and the check
boxes.
Check boxes are like an on/off switch. You can’t enter values, you can just
select or deselect them.
All entry fields have a yellow background to make them easy to allocate on-
screen. The only exception to this rule are the check boxes.
– Display fields show the results of the performed measurements. Again, there
are different types of display fields as measurement results can be purely
numerical (e.g. RF power) or they can be alphanumerical (e.g. the serial
number of a mobile). The bar display also is a display field.
To make display fields easy to distinguish from entry fields, they always have
a white background.
Entry fields The Willtek 4400 offers you different types of entry fields:
– Alphanumeric, hexadecimal or numeric entry fields accept text or numbers
respectively.
Example: TCH – Here you enter the number of the traffic
channel the measurement shall be performed on.
– Selection fields are entry fields that offer you a choice from a list of
predefined values. Click with the mouse on the triangle to see the available
options, or press the U
P or DOWN cursor key.
