AD-channel tab[edit]
The AD-channel tab shows information about short cut keys that can be used during measurement, as well as the AD – channels that are being used.
Short cut key[edit]
A short cut key is useful when a user wants to record information that can not be recorded when using AD-channels. For example a wheel that is slowing down or increasing speed. With short cut keys the engineer can press a key and RadiMation will insert some predefined text in the test log or/and decrees the level of the measurement. This depends on the settings for the specific key or key combination. Adding or creating a short cut key can be done by selecting the button for the desired action. Of course when editing an item, you must select the item before pressing the button. The window displayed below will appear.
Select the top window and press the key or key combination you wish to use. The window will display the currently used short cut key. In the window showed above it’s the “Alt” button. Select the second window and type the message you want to display in the log file. Then select the actions you want to have when pressing the short cut key. Press Ok to confirm.
AD input[edit]
AD-input is used to monitor the EUT during testing. It is an easy way of checking if the EUT is affected by external sources. You simply attach the AD input to the EUT, and tell RadiMation that you want to measure this device for every frequency. The chapter “EUT monitoring and control” will discuss this topic in detail.
You can select an AD-channel to be used during the measurement by using the check box in front of the channel. Then press the setup button for that AD-channel, this will open a new window.
Every item in the “AD Input” frame needs to be set correctly in order to get the correct information. In the “Measure” frame one can specify if one wants to measure before/during or after the dwell time. Default “During” should be selected. “Range” is used for minimum performance testing. One can specify the minimum and maximum value by selecting the check box and setting the corresponding values. When neither of these two boxes are selected RadiMation® will not take them into account during testing.
