ALIGNMENT PROCEDURE AND PERFORMANCE TESTS
3.Follow the instructions on the screen and adjust for the best demodulated square wave with minimum tilt and overshoot.
6.4 AUDIO DEVIATION
1.If manually selecting each test, click the “Tune” button in the “Audio Deviation” box. Otherwise, this function is selected automatically when the “Complete Tune” button is clicked.
2.Inject a 1 kHz signal at the level indicated on the screen into the Mic Audio jack of the RPI (see Section 6.1.2).
3.Monitor the transmit modulation signal with a communication monitor and follow the instructions on the screen to adjust the wideband, narrow band, and NPSPAC (see Section 1.2.5) deviation.
6.5 DATA DEVIATION
1.If manually selecting each test, click the “Tune” button in the “Data Deviation” box. Otherwise, this function is selected automatically when the “Complete Tune” button is clicked.
2.Monitor the transmit modulation signal with a communication monitor and follow the instructions on the screen to adjust the wideband, narrow band, and SMARTNET/SmartZone control channel data deviation.
6.6 SQUELCH ADJUST
The input level to the noise squelch circuit is set by R13 on the IF board, and the squelch threshold level is set by the PCTune software. The factory setting of R13 should not need to be changed, so step 3
which follows can normally be skipped. Proceed as follows to set the squelch:
1.If manually selecting each test, click the “Tune” button in the “Squelch” box. Otherwise, this func- tion is selected automatically when the “Complete Tune” button is clicked.
2.Connect an RF signal generator to the antenna jack using a 6 dB or greater pad. Set the generator for the channel frequency and modulation indicated on the screen.
3.If R13 must be adjusted (see preceding), remove the transceiver cover and connect power as described in Section 6.1.6. Temporarily set the squelch for “50” on the “Squelch” screen and adjust R13 (see Figure
4.Readjust the squelch level as indicated on the screen so that the squelch opens and closes between the indicated SINAD levels.
6.7 RSSI ADJUST
NOTE: Improperly setting the RSSI levels can result in degraded SmartZone roaming operation. Therefore, do not change the default settings unless you are familiar with how roaming will be affected.
The function which adjusts the RSSI levels is available only by clicking the “Tune” button in the “RSSI” box. It is not displayed in the Complete Tune mode for the reason just described. The default values that are programmed by clicking the “Program Defaults” button (see Section 6.1.5) should not be changed unless you are familiar with how these levels control site switching in a SmartZone system.
