Tuning Instructions
General
In contrast to earlier second–generation analog cellular phones tuning opera­tions of the NHC–4 are carried out using the Service software. The Service pro­gram turns the phone into the Locals mode, in which the phone can be out­wardly controlled via the M2BUS interface.
The tuning values of the phone reside on the EEPROM. Before tuning these values are read to the Service software and the user can change these values with tuning functions.
N.B. During tuning, proceed as follows:
– Take care not to damage sensitive measuring instruments with excessive
RF power.
– Carry out all tuning steps in the shortest possible time to avoid excessive
heating of RF units.

Tuning Steps of Booster

1. Output Power Tuning
In output power calibration we have to find the D/A converter values for given output power. Values are then saved to the EEPROM.
In booster EEPROM there is a table for 31 power levels. The power levels are from 4.8 to 34.8 dBm in1 dB steps.
The purpose of the calibration is to adjust the D/A value so that the power me­ter shows the correct dBm value and then save the D/A value to EEPROM.
Output power can be tuned by following these steps: – Connect the phone and the accessories as shown in picture Equipment Se-
tap For Tuning A Booster. Connect the RF power meter to the antenna con-
nector of the Booster. – Booster is initialized when the ”Output power tuning” is selected from
”Booster tuning” menu.
6–3–19
Copyright Nokia Mobile Phones
– When the booster is connected to the full handsfree car kit, the transmitter
of the phone is at powerlevel 5, so the input signal to the booster is about 13
dBm at all powerlevels. – Adjust the output power by using arrow keys or by clicking corresponding
buttons. Try to get the output power value to nearest 0.2 dB. – After the output power is correct, proceed to the next power level by select-
ing ”Next level” and tune the power to new target value. – When all the levels are tuned, you can save the values to booster EEPROM
by pressing <Enter>. If you press <Esc> changes are not saved to booster
EEPROM.
Page 20
TUNING INSTRUCTIONS
NHC–4
9618ARo Technical Documentation
2. Transmitter Frequency Tuning
After the output power levels have been calibrated in the middle channel (836MHz) the amplification must also be calibrated in different frequencies. Frequency calibration is made in 5 different frequencies: 824 MHz, 830 MHz, 836 MHz, 842 MHz and 848 MHz.
There is a table in booster EEPROM where the differences between middle channel output and output on given channel is stored.
Here is how to calibrate booster on different frequencies: – Connect the booster and the cables as in the output power tuning.
– Select Transmitter frequency tuning from booster menu. Booster is initialized
when the tuning dialog appears. – The phone is operated as preamplifier generating the inout signal to the
booster. Channel and frequency is displayed in the help window of tuning
dialog.
6–3–20
Copyright Nokia Mobile Phones
– Read the output power from RF meter and press ”Input value” button. An
input dialog appears where you can input the measured power level. – Accept the inputted value with <Enter> or cancel it with <Esc>. – When the value is inputted, the frequency in help window changes to the
next tuning frequency. – When power levels are inputted on all the frequencies, you can store the
values to booster by pressing <Enter> or cancel tuning by pressing <Esc>.
Page 21
TUNING INSTRUCTIONS
NHC–4
3. Output Power Check
After the transmitter calibration you must check that the output power is correct in all input levels and input voltages. Error of –1 dB to +1 dB is acceptable. Also the surge protection of the PA module must be checked. It should operate when the input voltage goes over 16 V.
Output power check: – Connect the booster and the cables as in the output power tuning.
– Use 10.5 V as booster input voltage. – Select ”Output power check” from booster menu. Booster is initialized when
the testing dialog appears. – Measure the output power. Power should be within the limits displayed in
the help window of testing dialog. Difference of –1 dB, +1 dB is acceptable. – Select next power level by pressing ”Next” button, and continue as ex-
plained in previous step.
9618ARo Technical Documentation
6–3–21
Copyright Nokia Mobile Phones
– When all the power levels are checked repeat the steps using voltage of
15 V. The output level must not be over +1 dB of the nominal. – Check that the output power drops to zero when the input voltage is set over
16 V.
Page 22
TUNING INSTRUCTIONS
NHC–4
4. Receiver Calibration
Receiver operates in frequencies 869 to 894 MHz. Receiving part is always on if the booster has the power connected.
The receiver has net gain of about +7 dB and it must be measured with ±1 dB accuracy.
Calibration procedure is following: – Inject the RF power to output of the booster and measure the amplification
from the input. – Set the output power of the RF generator to –50dBm. – Set RF generator frequency to 869.0 MHz. – Read the output power from RF meter and press ”Input value” button. An
input dialog appears where you can input the measured power level. – Accept the inputted value with <Enter> or cancel it with <Esc>. – When the value is inputted, the frequency in help window changes to the
next tuning frequency. Tune RF generator to that frequency and proceed as
in previous step.
9618ARo Technical Documentation
6–3–22
Copyright Nokia Mobile Phones
– When power levels are inputted on all the frequencies, you can store the
values to booster by pressing <Enter> or cancel tuning by pressing <Esc>.
5. Voltage Calibration
For temperature measurements the booster has internal NTC. Temperature reading is used for compensations, shutdowns and alarms. For
accurate readings the NTC must be calibrated in one point by writing the cal­ibration value to EEPROM.
Note: Before calibrating temperature, let the booster cool down long enough so that the temperature measured from the surface of the booster is about the same as the temperature inside the booster.
Calibration procedure is following. – Select ”Temperature calibration” from booster tuning menu.
– Measure the booster temperature and input the measured value to the input
dialog.
– Accept the value by pressing <Enter> or cancel tuning by pressing <Esc>.
