Prerequisites
A Serial Connection and a Network Connection tab are provided for
test equipment selection. The Serial Connection tab is used when the
test equipment items are connected directly to the CDMA LMF
computer via a GPIB box (normal setup). The Network Connection tab
is used when the test equipment is to be connected remotely via a
network connection.
Ensure the following has been completed before selecting test
equipment:
 Test equipment is correctly connected and turned on.
 CDMA LMF computer serial port and test equipment are connected to
the GPIB box.
Manually Selecting Test Equipment in a Serial Connection Tab
Test equipment can be manually specified before, or after, the test
equipment is connected. CDMA LMF does not check to see if the test
equipment is actually detected for manual specification.
Table 3-30: Selecting Test Equipment Manually in a Serial Connection Tab
Step Action
1 From the Tools menu, select Options.
The LMF Options window appears.
2 Click on the Serial Connection tab (if not in the forefront).
3 Select the correct serial port in the COMM Port pick list (normally COM1).
4 Click on the Manual Specification button (if not enabled).
5 Click on the check box corresponding to the test item(s) to be used.
6 Type the GPIB address in the corresponding GPIB address box (refer to the Setting GPIB Addresses
section of Appendix F for directions on verifying and/or changing test equipment GPIB addresses).
Motorola-recommended addresses are:
1 = signal generator
13 = power meter
18 = communications system analyzer
* IMPORTANT
When test equipment items are manually selected by the operator, the LMF defaults to using a power
meter for RF power measurements. The LMF will use a communications system analyzer for RF
power measurements only if a power meter is not selected (power meter checkbox not checked).
7 Click on Apply. (The button will darken until the selection has been committed.)
8 Click on Dismiss to close the test equipment window.
