1. When the mobile is in its loaded printed circuit board stage many turn on tests are generally performed For example you would configure a Digital Multimeter DMM and multiplexer for basic probing of power supplies test points or continuity You may also download software to the phone requiring you to use the RS 232 interface plus custom software for communicating with the phone More sophisticated testing could require flexible switching of stimulus response instruments Equipment Needed Yes No One DMM One Multiplexer per phone Additional Multiplexers Flexible Low Frequency Switching per phone One RS 232 per Phone Battery Emulation and Measurement A very important test requirement is checking the mobile s circuitry for the appropriate draw on the battery Battery life on the mobile is a critical end user feature and directly related to the voltage current characteristics The 66312 32 Dynamic DC Measurement Source is used for battery emulation and measuring current draw at various levels Equipment Needed Yes No Agilent Dynamic DC Power Supply Battery Charging Circuitry Besides testing the draw on the battery the phone may have a battery charging circuitry for re charging the battery The TS 5550 system offers a combination of the 6612 for powering the circuit and 66312 66322 for sinking and measuring currents Equipment Needed Yes No Dynamic DC Power Sup2. The TS 5500 offers racks in two heights 1 6m and 2 0m You should add up the total amount of rack space needed for the spacific configuration before choosing a rack size Any four up system requires the 2 0m rack PCS or GSM dual band the RF Test Sets require more rack space so you will need to trade off the number of phones tested per system versus rack height For example with PCS or GSM dual band RF test sets a 1 6m rack is limited to a 2 up configuration c PDU Power 200 400V The TS 5500 requries a dedicated ac mains power circuit This power circuit should be installed by a certified electrician The options and configuration matrix from the manual Cabling done by electrician d Utility Power Configuration Also you need to configure the utility power supply for connecting to fixture automation equipment or other circuitry e Operator Options A 17 inch monitor should be chosen via option Touch screens can be added as a special option The Keyboard mouse and Monitor connections to the TS 5500 are via the ExpressConnect Depending on the position of the keyboard mouse and monitor extension cables may be needed The four RS 232 ports on the TS 5500 ExpressConnect have 9 pin connectors typical to those on a PC These 9 pin connectors are connected to the system printer using typical 9 pin to 25 pin printer cables Be sure to consider the space the keyboard mouse monitor and or printer will take A small work su

9. 0 system involves selecting products and options from a menu You need to select a base system appropriate family options and support options 1 Selecting a Base System There are a few key decisions that allow you to select a base system You must decide 1 Number of phones per system and 2 Flexible and or expandable measurement requirements a Number of Phones per System It is always most economical to maximize the number of phones per system tested With the multiple up concept capital and integration costs are reduced Also operator interfaces are minimized e g strip printers monitor barcode readers Some of the considerations in maximizing the number of phones tested per system relate to the philosophy of testing optimizing test times and integration into the manufacturing floor Testing using a multiple up philosophy is a relatively new concept and may be perceived as risky For example if the test system fails multiple stations will be down Since the highest failure rate items in a test system are the per UUT resources such as the RF Test Set there is an insignificant failure rate difference between the multiple up strategy and a one up philosophy The multiple up TS 5500 will simply run only test plans for the working RF Test Sets With the shared resource concept in the TS 5500 sometimes the system computer will need to arbitrate the usage of the shared resources e g audio test module or DMM Also wi
