E6706U User Documentation

Overview

Last updated: November 29, 2010

The features and functionality present in the E6706U Special High Data Rate 1xEV-DO Lab Application are identical to those offered in the E6706B 1xEV-DO Lab Application, with the exceptions described in this document. For information on how to use the features that are common to the E6706B and E6706U, see the 1xEV-DO online user's guide located at:

http://wireless.keysight.com/rfcomms/refdocs/1xevdo/default.htm

The E6706U can only be loaded onto an E5515C with Special High Data Rate Hardware (or a test set with the equivalent hardware upgrades). Contact your local Keysight Sales Representative for more information, or visit www.keysight.com/find/8960upgrades.

In a test set with Special High Data Rate Hardware, the standard Protocol Processor is replaced with a High Data Rate Protocol Processor, and the test set's rear panel is modified to include a new LAN 2 PORT , which you must use for sending data to the test set (previously the LAN 1 PORT was used for this purpose).

The E6706U Special High Data Rate 1xEV-DO Lab Application (along with the appropriate hardware option) supports up to 3.1 Mbps throughput at both baseband and IP with the proper configurations (see Other Configurations ).

LAN 2 PORT

The Special High Data Rate Hardware required to run the E6706U includes a modified rear panel with a new LAN 2 PORT . To use the E6706U Data Channels functionality (to establish a Default Packet Application data connection, for example), you must connect your data server to LAN 2 PORT , rather than to LAN 1 PORT as in the past. LAN 1 PORT is still used for all other LAN operations such as protocol logging, firmware downloads and screen captures.

The LAN 2 PORT connects directly to the test set's High Data Rate protocol processor, as shown in the block diagram below.

Set LAN 2 PORT Address

You must configure the address of the LAN 2 PORT using the LAN IP Address 2 (Data+) setting (see Configuring the Test Set's LAN for general information about LAN IP addresses). LAN IP Address 2 (Data+) must not be the identical to the LAN IP Address setting, and must be on the same subnet as the LAN IP Address setting. If LAN IP Address or Subnet Mask is changed such that LAN IP Address 2 (Data+) is identical to or is no longer on the same subnet as LAN IP Address , then LAN IP Address 2 (Data+) is set to 0.0.0.0 and a warning is posted.

LAN IP Address 2 (Data+) is accessible from the Instrument Setup menu on the System Config Screen . The GPIB command for LAN IP Address 2 (Data+) is SYSTem:COMMunicate:LAN[:SELF]:ADDRess2<sp><string> . See SYSTem:COMMunicate:LAN[:SELF]:ADDRess[:IP4] for range information.

Other Configurations

To establish a packet data connection between a 1XEV-DO wireless device and a packet switched network, you should verify that:
