Service Monitor or Equivalent)

9 Click Stop Pattern Transmission to turn off the test tone.

10 Disconnect the service monitor and reconnect the transmit antenna.

11 If no further testing is needed, place the base radio in Normal Mode, as follows:

a Click Change to Normal Mode.

b At the confirmation screen, click OK.

The base radio halts activity in the current mode and switches operation to the requested

mode.

Testing the GTR 8000 Base Radio Performance with a Service

Monitor for HPD

The High Performance Data (HPD) Service Monitor is a diagnostic tool that may be used with an HPD

base radio or HPD modem to test and measure the transmitter and receiver characteristics. The HPD

Service Monitor generates HPD signaling and provides diagnostic information for received signaling.
