Industry’s Only Fully approved Test Solution for TIA/EIA 553A Analysis.

The FM/AM-1600S/CSA provides you with the industry’s only fully approved test solution for TIA/EIA 553A analysis. The FM/AM-1600S/CSA is accepted for confirming the proper operation of the critical dual mode analog/digital authentication procedure. It also offers a complete suite of tools for comprehensive signaling protocol compliance testing of TIA/EIA-136 dual mode TDMA/DAMPS phones on all the world’s cellular frequency assignments below 1 GHz. The FM/AM-1600S/CSA provides both base station and mobile phone conformance test capabilities.The AC1036 conformance test option verifies and thoroughly documents that your handset’s signaling software conforms to current TIA/EIA-136 series specifications. AMPS Solutions Engineered to be a flexible test solution, the FM/AM-1600S/CSA also incorporates AMPS and NAMPS mobile terminal and base station signaling compliance test features as well as standard radio measurements. Full AMPS testing modes are available with the FM/AM-1600S/CSA. As a true dual mode solution, the FM/AM-1600S/CSA incorporates AMPS and NAMPS mobile terminal tests as a standard feature. Optional base station testing routines, unique to the type of infrastructure under test, automate cell site testing chores so that maximum network quality is easily maintained. Automatic test routines and user defined print outs enhance manual mode testing for both mobiles and base sites. Comprehensive control channel simulations, voice channel signaling, home/roam condition, SID assignments, SAT, DSAT, DST, DCC, SINAD reference points, RF power windows, and other helpful functions and signaling manipulation tools let you test analog AMPS/NAMPS systems and radios as thoroughly as you need to.

A Full Complement of Radio Test Set

Functions to 1 GHz. The FM/AM-1600S/CSA gives you full frequency domain analysis to 1 GHz with a fully featured spectrum analyzer and tracking generator. The FM/AM-1600S/CSA gives you full featured service monitor functions. The FM/AM-1600S/CSA also offers a full complement of traditional service monitor features including a full scan digitized oscilloscope to 1 MHz, a DVM, SINAD meter and functions, frequency and channel tables, selectable IF filters, and a wide variety of displays. In addition to the full coverage 1 GHz RF generator, the FM/AM-1600S/CSA also gives you full audio/data generator capabilities, full level control and measurement facilities of modulation, and precision power meter features for enhanced sensitivity and high accuracy testing needs. Analog paging encoding/decoding, DTMF, tone coded squelch, digital squelch, AM modulation/demodulation with two separate AF generators and a cross band duplex feature gives you added test versatility in a variety of public and private wireless systems.

Dynamic IQ Constellation Display Simplifies Analysis

The FM/AM-1600S/CSA provides you with a dynamic, high speed constellation display for precise RF modulation analysis of π/4 DQPSK digitally modulate waveforms from 10 MHz to 1 GHz. This unique FM/AM-1600S/CSA feature gives a near-real time display of digital modulation characteristics that points out the cause of the trouble in digital radios. IQ Constellation display allows for comprehensive digital modulation testing Complex Functionality Made Easy Even with its elaborate capabilities, the FM/AM-1600S/CSA was developed to execute complex tests simply and with minimal operator training. Using field-proven front panel and user man-machine interfaces, the FM/AM-1600S/CSA gives you the performance and ease-of-use features that significantly reduce your testing and training time. Its test macro command programming language (TMAC) can be easily configured to perform complex automatic tests on base stations and terminals (including single and multi-mode as well as single and multi-band radios), and baseband equipment. This powerful capability allows you to create and save simple “one button” test routines for future use. This flexibility means you can create and execute complex and repeatable routines no matter what your level of expertise. A color display gives FM/AM-1600S/CSA users vivid screen clarity. Extensive use of softkeys reduces your complex cellular and PCS parametric and protocol tests to fast, simple and manageable routines.
