E-DPCCH Configuration Summary Table

This section defines the Settings Current and Apply Needed buttons. Only one button is available at any time. These buttons are available in all of the W-CDMA/HSPA+ Uplink's tree nodes.

	This button indicates that the current real-time settings have been applied to the instrument. No action is required.
	This button indicates that the instrument settings are not current and need to be updated to be applied to the instrument. Click this button to update the instrument's settings. [:SOURce]:RADio:WCDMa:TGPP[:BBG]:ULINk:APPLy [:SOURce]:RADio:WCDMa:TGPP[:BBG]:ULINk:APPLy?

Power (Main)

Range: –40 to 0 dB

Default: –2.69 dB

Enter the E-DPCCH power level in dB.

Power (Alternate)

Range: –40 to 0 dB

Default: –2.69 dB

Enter the alternate E-DPCCH power level in dB.

Data

Choice: PN9 | FIX4 | Standard | Custom Pattern | User File

Default: Standard

Edit the Data of the uplink E-DPCCH by clicking on the cell. Then click on the dialog box icon to launch the Closed Data dialog box.

When loading a user file through the software's Data dialog box, the MXG/EXG requires an ASCII text file consisting of 1s and 0s. When using SCPI commands, all instruments require a binary data file.
