being tested.

Verify that the Measurement field at the bottom of the display is set to Power. If it

is not, scroll down and set it to Power.

Notes	The Tune Freq displayed at the bottom of the CODE DOMAIN ANALYZER screen
	does not indicate the true tuned frequency of the Test System. The tuned
	frequency is calculated from your entry for Base Station Channel and can be
	viewed at the bottom of the main menu screen. Do not make changes to the Tune
	Freq setting of the CODE DOMAIN ANALYZER screen.
	If you are planning to test Code Domain Timing or Code Domain Phase, you can
	use the Measurement field to activate them without having to return to the main
	menu.
	Refer to the HP 83203B or 83205A Cellular Adapter User’s Guide for more
	details on the use of the Code Domain Power screen.
