=== Signal generator is going to -100 dBm and RadiMation is reporting that it can not go any lower ===
If the signal generator is going to -100 dBm during a test, then there is something wrong in the hardware configuration or the software configuration.


Possible causes and solutions:
# Verify that the hardware configuration is the same as the software configuration. It is possible that an attenuation is not included in the test-site configuration. It is also possible that a coupler with another attenuation was selected in the test-site configuration. Adjust the configuration of the test-site in such a way that the hardware configuration and the software configuration are equal.
# Check the noise level of the [[powermeter]], so the minimum power level which can be measured with the used power meter is known. The problem can be caused by a combination of the noise level of the used powermeter and the attenuation in front of the powermeter, which is in total higher then the requested power level during the test.

=== Why is a power delivery test performed, even if Forward power levelling is not selected?  ===
When {{radimation}} is instructed to use the forward power meter it will always perform a power delivery test.
The following items that may cause a forward power measurement:
* Forward power amplifier protection was activated.
* The forward power or net power is measured as an input.
* Forward power or Net power calibration method is selected.
In all these cases, also a power delivery test is performed.
=== Why is the signal generator carrier level limited to 0 dBm? ===
By default the input of an amplifier is limited to 0 dBm. This is a level that most amplifier can handle without breaking. If a higher or lower amplifier input level is needed, the amplifier input protection should be configured to that specific level. More information regarding the configuration of  [[Chapter_14#Amplifier_Input_Protection_Level|amplifier power protection]] can be found in [[Chapter 14]] of the [[RadiMation|{{RadiMation}}]] end-user [[manual]].

RadiMation® FAQ: General | Immunity | Emission | Report Generator


How can I overlap two graphs in multi band?[edit]

To overlap two graphs, open both the test results. In one of the two test results press the graphs button. you will see that the other test is available for selection. You can add any line from the other test result into the current graph.


Creating a pause in a multi-band test[edit]

There is no real pause inside multi band, but in general the only time you need a pause is when changing the test set up. For this you can use the before and after action in the test set up.

Auto attenuator is going to 10 dB even with low emission values[edit]

When auto attenuation is selected, RadiMation® sends a command to the receiver or analyser to select auto attenuation. The attenuation that will be selected by the receiver or analyser is then depending on the used measurement device itself. When an analyser is used, it can help to decrease the reference level to for example 50 dbuV. Verify if the attenuator has been decreased at the lower reference level setting. A lot of analysers can only use a 0 dB attenuation value, if the reference level is lower or equal to -20 dbm (or 87 dBuV).

Why is there a big drop between the value during and after a G-tem measurement?[edit]

For a G-tem measurement you need to change the EUT to all three axis (X,Y and Z). During the measurement of one side you will see the emission coming out of that side. After measuring all three side the G-tem correction to the OATS can be applied, including the normalised site attenuation. For frequencies smaller then 1 Ghz this can mean that the total value is lower then the measured on one side. For example the attenuation for a horizontal 3 meter site at 30 MHz is 15.8. For the horizontal 10 meter site at 30 MHz this is 29.8. See the standard for the rest of the values.

How can I reset the administrator password in RadiMation®?[edit]

The password of the administrator cannot be cleared, it is however possible to remove the administrator account. If RadiMation® is started without an Administrator account, RadiMation® will automatically create a new Administrator account with the default RadiMation® password.

Use the following steps to remove the Administrator account:

  1. Close RadiMation® before continuing.
  2. In the RadiMation® CONFDVDR folder (most often: C:\Program Files\DARE Development\RadiMation\CONFDVDR\) the file SETTINGS.INI is present. Open this file, and search for the keyword [Engineers]. After this line, search for the engineer that is named Administrator. (for example: Engineer1=Administrator).
  3. Remove all the lines that start with: Engineer<NR>, where the <NR> is the same number (in the example: 1) as the number of the engineer that was named Administrator.
  4. Save the file and start RadiMation®.

What is the default RadiMation® password for the Administrator?[edit]

The default password for the administrator is: Radimation

How can I see which pages have been changed recently?[edit]

This RadiWiki site is using the MediaWiki software that is also used by Wikipedia. Most of the features that are present on Wikipedia, are thus also present on this RadiWiki site. Some possibilities to monitor recent changes are:

  • Use the Recent changes link on the 'tools' section on the top-left, to see all the recent changes.
  • Use the New pages page, to see all recently added new pages

I have found a problem. What should I do?[edit]

If you have found a problem in the RadiMation® software, it is best to report it to us. We will categorize the reported issue, register it in our defect database, and investigate the problem. When a workaround or solution is available, we will report this back to you.

I have another question, that is not answered yet[edit]

Just send your question by e-mail to the RadiMation® support team (radimation-support@raditeq.com), and we will give you an answer.
