Tx test with RSSI viewer

Preparation

• 2 x Development Kit (nRF52-DK, nRF51-DK, nRF52840-DK, nRF52840-Dongle, nRF5340-DK, ... )
• nRF Connect for Desktop
• nRF DTM

Recommend environment

• Windows 7 ~
• nRF52833 for Full Radio Test (2Mbps/Coded PHY/8dBm/AoA)
• The RSSI Viewer supports nRF52-DK,nRF52840-DK,nRF52840-Dongle only test Environment

Test Procedure

1. Flash the DTM firmware to one(A) Development Kit

2. Flash the RSSI Viewer to the other one(B) through nRF Connect for Desktop's RSSI Viewer

3. Start RSSI viewer

4. Connect a Devkit to nRF DTM

   • Set the nRF DTM as Transmitter and configure Channel, Payload Model, PHY, etc..….
   • Recommend that Payload is Constant carrier and Run time is 0

5. Start nRF DTM

6. If you start nRF DTM successfully the RSSI viewer will show as below picture. It can be used as a simple measurement of Tx power level or frequency shift(if it has a big gap)
