TIA TIA-102.CADA PDF

Scope and Document Organization

This document lists a series of conformance tests for the control interface to a conventional Fixed Station (FS) defined in Ref. [1]. The tests follow directly with the material layout in that document. This testing is intended to be applied by manufacturers to assure that equipment actually conforms to the formats and procedures defined for the Conventional Fixed Station Interface (CFSI).

Conformance tests are complimentary to performance tests which measure the actual limits of equipment performance. They are a necessary prerequisite to interoperability tests. Interoperability tests are intended to demonstrate interoperability between particular implementations of conventional fixed station hosts (FSHs) and conventional fixed stations (FSs).

Clause 4 provides an overview of the test methodologies and configurations used in this specification.

Clause 5 provides the detailed specifications of conformance tests for FSHs and FSs that implement the Analog conventional Fixed Station Interface (AFSI).

Clause 6 provides the detailed specifications of conformance tests for FSHs and FSs that implement the Digital conventional Fixed Station Interface (DFSI).
