4) Assure that there are no defects in system connection and setup and turn on
the power switch of FSK modulator and demodulator.

Result: Normal, if LEDs of FSK modulator, FSK demodulator and LNA, RF AMP
are lighted on.

In case of fault: Immediately turn off the power switch to analyze the reason of
fault.

2. Test Procedure
1) Run the communication program in the sender PC and set as follows:
- HOST TYPE : Sender
- Port : Port to which RS232C cable of the PC is connected (Select COM1)
- Baud : Select one of 4800, 9600 and 14400 (Select 4800)
- Parity : Select one of No parity, Even and Odd (Select NOPARITY)
- Click Connect -> The port is activated. Click Disconnect when the test is
completed.
