COMMUNICATIONS SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR TESTING OF A COMMUNICATIONS APPARATUS

摘要

The present invention concerns a communications system comprising a communications apparatus (KV) and a test apparatus for testing of the communications apparatus, as well as a method for testing of a communications apparatus (KV). The communications apparatus comprises a plurality of telephones (T1 to Tn) and at least a transmission station (UEV) for transmitting signals. The test apparatus comprises a central signal processing apparatus (ZV) with at least a programmable data processing apparatus (S) for the generation of digital test signals for testing of the telephone communinations apparatus (KV) and a converter apparatus (WV) connected with the programmable data processing apparatus (S). The converter apparatus (WV) is constructed so that it converts the digital test signals of the data processing apparatus (S) under the control of telephone specific configuration data into operating signals for controlling the operation of the keypad and of the microphone of the telephone (Tn) via a connection apparatus (AV) and further so that it converts answer signals received from the loudspeaker and from the calling apparatus of the telephone (Tn) into digital operating answer signals and transfers them to the programmable data processing apparatus (S), where they are saved or evaluated.
