PRELIMINARY

Manual Calibration Procedures

Agilent E4406A Transmitter Tester

The E4406A does not support the Power Level Zeroing Calibration

performed by the LMF. If this instrument is to be used for Bay Level

Offset Calibration and Calibration is attempted with the LMF Calibrate

Test Equipment Function, the LMF will return a Failure Message

Status Window stating that Zeroing Power is not supported by the

E4406A.

– Refer to the Equipment Calibration section of Appendix F for

instructions on using the instrument’s Self–alignment (Calibration)

Function prior to performing Bay Level Offset Calibration..

Power Meters

Manual Power Meter Calibration Procedures to be performed prior to

automated Calibration are included in the Equipment Calibration section

of Appendix F..

Cable Calibration

Manual Cables using the HP 8921A and Advantest R3465

Communications System Analyzers are provided in the Manual Cable

Calibration section of Appendix F, if needed..

GPIB Addresses

GPIB Addresses can range from 1 through 30. The LMF will accept any

address in that range, but the numbers entered in the LMF Options

Window GPIB Address Boxes (Table 3-29 and Table 3-30) must match

the addresses set in the Test Equipment. Motorola recommends using 1

for a CDMA Signal Generator, 13 for a Power Meter, and 18 for a

Communications System Analyzer. To verify and, if necessary, change

the GPIB Addresses of the Test Equipment, refer to the Setting GPIB

Addresses section of Appendix F.

IP Addresses

For the Agilent E7495A Communications Test Set, set the IP Address

and complete Initial Set–up as described in Appendix F. Specifically, see

Table F-1 on Page F-1.

Selecting Test Equipment

Serial Connection and Network Connection Tabs are provided in the

LMF Options Window to specify the Test Equipment Connection

Method.

– The Serial Connection Tab is used when the Test Equipment Items

are connected directly to the LMF Computer through a GPIB Box

(normal set–up).

– The Network Connection Tab is used when the Test Equipment is

to be connected remotely via a Network Connection or the Agilent

E7495A Communications Test Set is used. Refer to Appendix F.

Specifically, see Table F-1 on Page F-1.
