Programming and Using the TESTS Subsystem

5Select the Yes/No field and decide if the test is to be run on all channels (select Yes), or if the test is to be run on prime channels only (select No). (Prime channels are selected from the Edit Freq field.)

Four factors determine how long it takes to test a radio:

•The number of tests selected in the sequence.

•The kind of tests that are selected.

•The order in which the tests are selected.

•The number of points measured in a test. (This is determined by the start, stop, and step values in certain test parameters.)

Tests can be selected in any order; but to reduce testing time, you should strategically organize the test sequence. Tests requiring operator intervention (changing volume, channels, and so forth) should be grouped together.

Editing Test Specifications

Test Specifications are the upper and lower limit values that are used by the Test Executive to describe the manufactured specifications of the radio itself. For a radio to pass a test, the measured value must fall within the test’s specified value (lower limit, upper limit, or both upper and lower limits).
