Fields

Internal

This field selects the trigger source.

•Internal uses the signal being displayed for triggering.

•External uses the rear-panel EXT SCOPE TRIGGER INPUT for triggering. This is a TTL level trigger (approximately 2.5 V).

•ENCODER uses the signaling encoder for triggering. The encoder must be sending its signal to trigger the oscilloscope.

Keep

This column in the CDMA Mobile Reporting table lists the “Keep” pilot indicator bit from the Pilot Strength Message.

All numbers displayed in the CDMA Mobile Reporting table reflect the last pilot strength message received from a mobile station. A Pilot Strength Message is sent from the mobile station when a Softer Handoff is executed, ended, or when the mobile station detects a change in pilot levels that affects the assignment of pilots to the mobile station’s Active, Candidate, or Neighbor sets.

The CDMA Mobile Reporting table can be cleared by selecting the Pilot Meas (Clear) field.

Operating Considerations

If the “Keep” bit is zero, the mobile station’s handoff drop timer for that pilot has expired. Otherwise, this bit will be a one.

GPIB Example

“DISP CMOB;CDMA:MOB:PIL:STR?“

queries the results displayed in the CDMA Mobile Reporting table.

The value returned by the Test Set includes Status, PN Offset, Strength, and Keep for each pilot currently being tracked by the mobile station. These values are sent as a comma-separated list of IEEE floating point numbers, 16 characters each, ending with a line feed character.
