Function

GSM TA

Queries the delay (in TDMA frames) the test set used during the last fast bit error measurement to correlate uplink information bits with downlink information bits.

This value is displayed in the TDMA Frame Delay field.

This value can be determined automatically, or set by the user. See SETup:FBERror:MANual:DELay and SETup:FBERror:LDControl:AUTO for setting this value manually.

Refer also to the Fast Bit Error Measurement Description for a description of frame delay and how it is used in the fast bit error measurement.
