Operation RF-Baton! Transmitter Controller Installation and Operation

Test Data Mode
Test data transmission mode is usually used to test the RF path and performance of the
connected transmitter. While in this mode, the RF-B! transmitter controller generates test data
that is transmitted to the transmitter. The contents of the test message data is determined by
the user.
Before initiating a test mode, ensure that the transmitter is connected properly and the
distribution network has been disconnected.
To set up and execute a test transmission, perform the following steps:
1. Establish a FIPS session (see paragraph, "Service Terminal").
2. Set the transmission frequency to 1 of 16 possible values.
At the prompt, type:
a 196 [frequency index] <Enter> (where frequency index = 0–15)
The frequency index in the a 196 command directly corresponds to parameters
maintained on the transmitter. To be precise, the transmitter parameter 2000 contains the
center frequency for frequency index = 1, and subsequently transmitter parameter 2015
contains the center frequency for frequency index = 15.
Refer to RF-Orchestra! Paging Station Installation and Operation, Motorola Part
No. 6880493G02 for more information on determining and setting the center frequency.
For further information on the 195 and 196 action commands, refer to the FIPS action
command description in Appendix C.
