Information
Purpose and features
2945A is a portable Communications Service Monitor for carrying out production, routine and
maintenance testing on radio transmitters, receivers and two way radio communication equipment.
The Service Monitor contains modules to provide facilities equivalent to the following
instruments:-
RF generator, two audio generators, specialised tones generator, RF power meter, modulation
meter, RF counter, AF counter, AF voltmeter, distortion meter, large screen digital oscilloscope,
spectrum analyzer and monitoring receiver.
Distortion measuring filters, AF post demodulation filters and IF passband filters, are built in for
inclusion in relevant measurement paths.
The signal obtained from the demodulators, when in Tx test mode, is fed to an AF amplifier and
can be monitored on the built-in loudspeaker, on headphones connected to the accessory socket, or
taken from the DEMOD OUT connector to other equipment.
The monitor has a wide range of test capabilities including base station, mobile and transponder
commissioning and servicing, radio telephone system and radio pager testing, as well as production
testing to all of the above.
The selection of a test mode configures the modules into set-ups ready for connection to the
equipment to be tested and produces the appropriate set-up screen on the display. The set-up
screen shows the settings of the active modules, records changes to settings as they are made and
gives readouts of test results both digitally and on barcharts.
The modules of the monitor can each be used to perform as individual test instruments.
A hard copy of most screens can be made to a suitable printer using the screen capture feature.
This is one of the functions accessed after pressing the [DISPLAY HOLD] key on the front panel.
See Front panel layout, DISPLAY HOLD key, in Chapter 3.
A memory facility allows instrument settings and test results to be stored within the instrument.
With the memory card option fitted, these can be stored on memory cards. This also allows
settings to be exchanged between instruments.
The memory card option also includes a real time clock which provides date/time stamping to
stored results and to screen-capture printouts.
The RS232 control facility permits operation of the instrument by remote or automatic control as
an alternative or supplement to the conventional front panel local control.
IEEE 488.2 GPIB remote control is available as an option.
RS232 and GPIB control facilities are detailed fully in the Programming Manual supplied.
The test modes are outlined in the following descriptions, with interconnection diagrams showing
the principles of the test procedures.
