Atec Wavetek-3600D - Manual (Page 3)

Productivity
Enhancing Features
Accurate and repeatable
measurement performance
provides confidence in phone
testing. A ‘C’ message filter,
together with 50 Hz to 300 Hz
highpass and 3, 15, and 30 kHz
lowpass filters, provides flexibility
in evaluating new phones.
Remote Control Options
Fast operation using the optional
GPIB remote control ensures
rapid assessment of phones in
factory installed, fully automatic
test systems. Comprehensive
capabilities allow factory QC
systems to be used at repair
depots to check performance. RS-
232 control is also provided for
PC control in service shops.
Cable Loss Calibrator
Power accuracy via cable con-
nection is enhanced using the
built-in cable calibrator. With this
feature, cables used for auto-
mobile installation can be
calibrated and intermittent or
faulty RF cables located.
Soft Keys Give Easy Access
All manual screens have soft keys
to help technicians maneuver
through comprehensive test
screens. Operating an extensive
test or improving response time is
enhanced using the soft keys.
Automatically Exit And Return
To Manual Operation
During an AUTORUN, the
technician can pause on a failure,
use manual mode to adjust a
particular parameter, and easily
return to the AUTORUN.
Affordable, Easy Custom Programming
To avoid expensive programming
costs, test routines can be simply
customized using a standard MS-
DOS based text editor and PC.
Up to five AUTORUN routines
can be internally stored, while a
3.5” diskette holds additional
programs. For example,
AUTORUNs can simplify:
•
30-second inspection tests for
verifying general operation
•
Custom tests for phone repair
•
Intermittent fault finding tests
One Button Access Simplifies Operation
One push of the ID button
provides ESN, MIN and SCM
data to verify correct phone
programming.
Simple Operation
tests voice quality for IS-136 PCS
phones and preserves loopback
voice tests for VSELP or ACELP.
The 3600D’s large display with
limit lines allows technicians to
check burst envelope to look at
specification compliance, over-
shoot, and timing problems.
Extensive receiver analysis with
BER, mobile-reported BER, and
MAHO RSSI checks phone
performance.
For comprehensive transmitter
testing, power and frequency
measurements, RMS Vector
Error, and Peak Vector Error are
provided. Magnitude and Phase
Error, Origin Offsets, and Burst
Amplitude droop allow accurate
characterization of the mobile.
The constellation display helps
technicians check in-phase and
quadrature signals for misalign-
ment and permits modulator
troubleshooting.
