Individual Test Options
A list describing the use of the test program options follows below.
A summary of the test options and possible parameter values is given as well.
1 CH NUMBER
2 TX POWER
4 FLASHER
Setting of channel number
Choose any chanel in the ETACS system (0-600, 1329-2047).
Default setting is channel 1.
To change channel number; enter a 4-digit decimal number followed by #.
Use * and # to step backwards/forwards.
Channel number and signal strength are displayed.

When the power reduction function is activated in menu 76,
power level 2 will be displayed as ‘S’.
When the extra power option in menu 76 is activated,
power level 2 will be displayed as ‘X’.
Used only when loading the program into a terminal.
5 PWR CAL

7 TX SENS
Calibration of power levels.
Transmitter is turned on and tuned to the calibration channel.
Modify the power levels with the following keys:
# / *

transmitter is turned on
M+#

steps forward to next power level (2->3->...->7->2).
C
turns off TX, restores channel no., returns to menu 0.
Performs two simple transmitter tests: a general Go/NoGo trans-
mitter test and a transmitter leakage test.
To start the test, press any key except

Test/Service Programs
9 RF CAL
10 RX SENS
Calibrates the RSSI levels based on the level of the signal cur-
rently being received.
The value determined for each level is the minimum strength
signal for that level, averaged over 16 readings to provide a
more reliable value.
The value for level 0 is used to update the Receiver Carrier
Detect (RXCD) such that signals below this level are ignored.
This value (plus a fixed offset) also determines the minimum
signal threshold for the AFC.
When the received signal is below this threshold, the AFC pro-
vides TCXO compensation based on a default temperature com-
pensation table.
The values for level 1 and 5 are used to determine the RSSI
graph to display.
The values for level 2, 3 and 4 are interpolated from these two
reference levels.
