Abstract: The invention relates to the field of methods and arrangements pertaining to transceivers. The object of the invention is to enable transceivers to be used more simply and more cheaply. This is achieved with an improved method of calibrating transceivers, and with transceivers that can be calibrated in accordance with the method. A sequence of signal connections ( 60-70 ) is established between a transmitter chain ( 3 ) and a receiver chain ( 5 ) in a transceiver. A corresponding sequence of signal paths is established from a baseband stage in the transmitter chain to a baseband stage in the receiver chain. Each signal path includes at least one specific component that shall be calibrated with the use of the established signal path, wherein any further components in said signal path will have already been calibrated with the use of earlier established signal paths. When calibrating the components, pre-determined test signals (TS 1 -TS 11 ) are sent over the signal paths, wherein the response signals (RS 1 -RS 11 ) are received as a response to the transmitted test signals. It is ascertained whether or not the components in the transceiver fulfil pre-determined performance requirements, on the basis of the test signals and the response signals. The components are adjusted when they do not fulfil performance requirements.

Abstract: A gripping device comprises a support body ( 2 ) within a sleeve ( 8 ), with the sleeve being mounted around the body for relative translational movement along a common axis thereof. A plurality of gripping elements ( 10, 12 ) are pivotally mounted in the body ( 2 ), the elements having lever arms ( 20, 22 ) projecting laterally from the boundary of the body. Translational movement of the sleeve ( 8 ) relative to the body ( 2 ) causes working engagement of the sleeve with the gripping element lever arms ( 20, 22 ), and movement of the lever arms to pivot the elements ( 10, 12 ) and close the elements around an item captured therebetween. Normally, the pivotal axes for the gripping elements ( 10, 12 ) are disposed within the support body ( 2 ), with the elements themselves projecting axially from an end thereof. The pivotal axes are normally substantialy parallel, and indeed the gripping elements may all be mounted for pivotal movement about the same common axis ( 18 ). The pivotal axis or axes will usually be perpendicular to the common axis of the support body and sleeve, but there may be applications in which a different angular relationship between these axes will be used.
