Possible Setup Issues

If the Access Probe Power measurement is currently selected and the Trigger Arm setting is Continuous, all other measurements are disabled. Use the SETup:CAPPower:CONTinuous command to set the trigger arm state to single and retry this measurement.

During remote operation of this measurement, you should configure the Trigger Arm to Single. See SETup:WQUality:CONTinuous . If single triggering is used during manual operation, press the START SINGLE key to trigger each measurement.

If a waveform quality measurement is attempted while in active cell operating mode, a call must be connected so that long code information can be obtained from the mobile station and measurement triggers can be synchronized to the CDMA frame clock inside the test set.

The test set receiver's expected signal amplitude and channel number (or frequency) must be set up correctly for accurate measurements. This is normally done automatically (see Active Cell Operating Mode ) but can also be done manually (see Receiver Control ).

When the waveform quality measurement is running, changing PLCM Type causes this measurement aborted and restarted. See PLCM Type for details.

Interpreting Integrity Indicator values

An integrity indicator of 17 (Can not correlate), indicates that the received signal did not correlate with an internally generated reference signal. See Integrity Indicator .
