Programming Example
OUTPUT 714;"SETUP:BERROR:TYPE TYPEIA"
! Sets type of BER measurement.
|
SETup:BERRor:CLSDelay[:STIMe]
|
Function
|
GSM TA
|
Selects/queries the closed loop signalling delay time in seconds for Bit Error measurements and sets the delay state to ON. The units (S|MS) are optional, if no units are specified than units default to S.
The delay time defines how long the test set should wait before starting a BERR measurement. The downlink signalling operation must be completed and the test set must send a close loop command to the MS before the measurement can begin. The delay time allows time for the loop to close.
When a close loop message is set to the MS the closed loop signalling delay time will hold off the BERR measurement from starting for the specified time period.

|
Function
|
GSM TA
|
Selects/queries the closed loop signalling delay state for Bit Error measurements. If the state is off the test set will not wait to start a BERR measurement after a downlink signalling operation has completed.
The delay time defines how long the test set should wait before starting and BERR measurement after a downlink signalling operation has completed and after the test set has sent a close loop command to the MS.
When a close loop message is set to the MS the closed loop signalling delay time will hold off the BERR measurement from starting for the specified time period.

SETup:BERRor:LDControl:AUTO
|
Function
|
GSM TA
|
Sets/queries loopback delay control mode. If loopback delay control mode is automatic (Auto), the test set determines the loopback delay value that will allow correlation between uplink information bits with downlink information bits.
If loopback delay control mode is manual (not Auto), the test set will use the loopback delay value entered in the Loopback Delay field. Refer to. see
SETup:BERRor:MANual:DELay

Sets/queries the number of frames the test set uses to correlate uplink information bits with downlink information bits when loopback delay control mode is manual (AUTO OFF). To set the loopback delay mode to manual, refer to
SETup:BERRor:LDControl:AUTO
.
This value is displayed in the Loopback Delay field when Auto is not displayed. (If you want to display this value and Auto is currently displayed, press the front-panel key labeled
OFF
).

SETup:BERRor:SLControl[:STATe]
|
Function
|
GSM TA
|
Selects/queries the Signalling loopback control state for an BER measurement.
When signalling loopback control is set to on, the test set will automatically send the loopback for Type A (residual) or Type B (non-residual) loopback to the MS, based on the measurement type selected, and then set loopback to off when the measurement is complete.
The loopback type is controlled manually using
Mobile Loopback
(
F12
) on
Call Parms
menu
1 of 4
. See
CALL:TCHannel:LOOPback
for a programming example and details about the command.
