6.4.2.6 RSSI Adjustment (VHF: T835)
Note: This check is only recommended for Paragon/R model running DBA protocol 3.06.009
series or later.
- Apply an on-channel signal from the RF generator at a level of -100dBm with deviation of
±3kHz (full channel) or ±1.5kHz (half channel) at 1kHz tone.
- Adjust RV320 (RSSI level) to give 4.5V RSSI output at RSSI test point (near of quad. Coil
L360) or on backplane SK1 pin 5 when measured with a voltmeter
- Vary the RF level in 15dB steps and check that the RSSI output voltage (SK1 pin5) changes at
a rate of a 15dB/V (+/- 0.30VDC) over the range of -120 dBm to -80dBm (see Figure 29). If
the requirement cannot be reached, contact your Dataradio technical support.
