Signal power went too high (... dBm) during power delivery test

During the initialization of a test, a power delivery test is performed to verify if the system is correctly configured and working as expected. During this power delivery test, the signal power is incremented in 4 dB steps, and the forward powermeter is monitored to determine if the amplified signal also increments with 4 dB steps. This verification ensures that the cabling from the signal generator through the amplifier, coupler and switchmatrixes is correct, and also that the forward powermeter can correctly measure the power. When RadiMation® is instructed to use the forward power meter in an immunity test, it will always perform the power delivery test.

This error is generated during a situation that the power level could not be further raised, due to the (amplifier) protection.

The following items that may cause a forward power measurement:

  • Forward power amplifier protection was activated.
  • 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.

Solution

  • Ensure that the amplifier is activated
  • Ensure that all the switchmatrixes are in the correct position
  • Ensure that the interlock system is closed
