CE certification

[Thomas]

Hi. We are going to mass production now and the 3rd party lab that will certify our product says we need to have a special mode in the firmware that would do :

continuous emission, reception, emission on a low, a medium and a high channel

The 3rd party lab doesn't know more about this, but does this ring a bell to you on what we need to do ? I talked about dtm (which our product does) but they say it is something different

Thanks

You can also use the "radio test example" in the SDK. This is probably better for CE/FCC testing as you don't need the same level of control as the DTM provides.

Normally, you need the following modes implemented when doing CE/FCC testing: TX, modulated carrier, channel 02 TX, modulated carrier, channel 40 TX, modulated carrier, channel 80 RX channel 02 RX channel 40 RX channel 80

Changing modes can be done in various ways, like pressing a button if that's available. You can also temporarily connect a button to a free GPIO. Blinking a LED or two to indicate the mode is a good idea also.

Hi Ketil,

I am working with the radio test example. I could verify the Tx functionality using spectrum analyser. Is there a way to confirm rx functionality test for fcc conformance?
