Performing a walk test – RF level recorder
1. Switch on sources of interference
and other transmission links.
8. Interpret the result.
7. Perform the walk test; the antenna signals and the diversity evaluation are
recorded for each channel.
Use one or several transmitters to walk-test the operating environment.
If necessary, set markers (SKM 9000 COM or SK 9000 with KA 9000 COM).
If necessary, you can additionally activate the 1 kHz test tone to check the
signal quality.
Change between the channels 1 ... 8 to view the antenna signals and the
diversity evaluation.
9. Improve the result:
Reposition the antennas.
Repeat the walk test.
3. Switch on all transmitters that
you want to use for the walk
test and establish transmission
links between the EM 9046 and
the transmitters.
2. Call up the “ch” operating mode.
4. Press a “Channel” button.
5. Call up the “RF level recorder”
menu item.
6. Start the walk test.
