Operation 4.3 Modem • After you click RESTART in the Modem Restart option, the following pop up window appears.Click OK to restart.
Operation 4.4 Control Check NOTCHCELL_20W in the left menu.
Solution 1. Automatic Easy Setup (Recommended) Operation Step 1 Return To Factory Defaults • To reset to factory defaults, click ,1,7,$/,=(. Step 2 Select Bandwidth and Band and click APPLY. Step 3 Automatic Easy Setup (Recommended) Automatic Easy Setup proceeds to: • Isolation measurement On • Calculation of Available Maximum Gain by the isolation. • ASD On • ALC On to get Maximum DL Output Power 43dBm [Default] or Maximum Gain 95dB.
Operation Click Execute. Automatic Easy Setup feature will measure the isolation and limit the maximum gain accordingly. This will also enable Auto Level Control as well as Auto Shut Down. These two features are strongly recommended to prevent the uncontrolled power output, which could have an adverse impact on the RF network and the repeater. For example, ALC will apply attenuation automatically when the input signal strength is increased due to the new base station deployment near the repeater site.
Step 6 Setup will automatically begin. Operation Note Automatic Easy Setup process will take approximately 20 seconds. Result 1 Constant Maximum DL Output Power 43dBm if DL Input Power >= -52dBm. Result 2 Maximum Gain 85dB if DL Input Power < -52dBm. After running Automatic Easy Setup or ,VRODWLRQ 0HDVXUHPHQW, ,VRODWLRQ value is displayed with “GOOD” when the isolation is higher than 110dB, or it is displayed with the actual value when the isolation is lower than 110dB.
Operation Tip $SSO\LQJ 8SOLQN *DLQ 2IIVHW Perform the following steps to adjust the Uplink Gain by the offset relative to the Downlink Gain. Uplink Gain Offset Downlink Gain Uplink Gain • Automatic Shutdown: Type the desired values for dBm, seconds, and then click APPLY. (e.g. 46dBm, 20seconds) [Example] For the repeater with 46dBm maximum output power, 95dB maximum gain / 40dB gain control range, Assuming ASD Level: 46dBm, ASD Time: 20seconds.
Solution 2. DL Output Power < Max. 43dBm Repeat Step 1 through Step 6. Step 2A Change the level at Automatic Level Control and click APPLY. Result Operation Step 1A Constant output power set as the ALC level.
Operation Solution 3. Fixed Gain [Not Recommended] Step 1B Repeat Step 1 through Step 6. Automatic Easy Setup will calculate the Available Maximum Gain which defines the maximum gain to be setup. DO NOT setup the gain higher than the Available Warning Maximum Gain. Step 2B 28 Read DL Input Power and the gain controlled by Automatic Easy Setup.
Step 3B Operation Turn off '/ $PSOLILHU and 8/ $PSOLILHU. Alarms < Alarm Status > < Alarm Range > • Reported to Sprint : If an alarm occurs, the repeater will report directly to Sprint as a SNMP Trap so the LED of ALARM on the repeater does not blink. • On Site Alarm : If an alarm occurs, the alarm LED on the repeater will turn on. Please refer to the troubleshooting section of this manual. • No change of the values in the alarm range is recommended. 4.5 Update Click Update in the left menu. 5.5.
