CALL:SCHannel

Last updated: May 11, 2011

CALL:SCHannel[:FORWard][:SLEVel][:SELected]

Function	The setting form of this command performs two functions: (1) sets the level of the forward supplemental channel (F-SCH), and (2) turns the state of the F-SCH on. The query form of this command returns the requested level of the F-SCH. The optional [:SELected] keyword in this command specifies that the F-SCH level being set/queried applies to the current system type. At this time there is only one system type choice, DIGital2000. Specifying DIGital2000 will have the same effect as using the optional [:SELected] keyword.
Setting	Range: 0 to -20 dB Resolution: 0.01 dB
Query	Range: 0 to -20 dB Resolution: 0.01 dB
*RST Setting	-15.6 dB
Requirements	Test Application Revision: B.03.00: Added optional [:FORWard]
Programming Example OUTPUT 714;"CALL:SCHANNEL:FORWARD:SLEVEL:SELECTED -10" !Sets the cell's forward supplemental channel state to on and the level to -10 dB.

Changes to reverse encoder when not in Active Cell status will be stored and applied when an R-SCH is established.

CALL:SCHannel:TDSOption:DSOurce

Function

Sets/queries whether fixed pattern data (FPAT) or a pseudorandom bit sequence (PRBS) is sent on the forward and reverse supplemental channels (F-SCH and R-SCH) when using an SO32 Service Option (test data service option (TDSO)).

IMPORTANT

PRBS data is required if you are making any of the code domain measurements on the reverse supplemental channel.

If fixed data is selected, the CALL:SCHannel:TDSOption:FPATtern command determines the fixed data pattern that is used.

If you attempt to set the F-SCH TDSO data source while a data connection is established, an error will be generated and the setting rejected.

Query

Range: FPAT|PRBS

*RST Setting

PRBS (Prior to B.06.00, the default was FPAT)
