Ethernet Instructions: This equipment is for indoor use only. All cabling should be limited to inside the building. Preclude indications that Home/ personal use are prohibited. Use of unauthorized antennas, cables, and/or coupling devices not conforming with ERP/EIRP is prohibited.
FCC Part 90 Class A WARNING. THIS is NOT a CONSUMER device. It is designed for installation by FCC LICENSEES and QUALIFIED INSTALLERS. You MUST have an FCC LICENSE or express consent of an FCC Licensee to operate this device. You MUST register Class B signal boosters (as defined in 47 CFR 90.219) online at www.fcc.gov/signal-boosters/registration. Unauthorized use may result in significant forfeiture penalties, including penalties in excess of $100,000 for each continuing violation. FCC Part 15.
RSS-GEN, Sec. 7.1.2– (detachable antennas) This radio transmitter (identify the device by certification number, or model number if Category II) has been approved by Industry Canada to operate with the antenna types listed below with the maximum permissible gain and required antenna impedance for each antenna type indicated. Antenna types not included in this list, having a gain greater than the maximum gain indicated for that type, are strictly prohibited for use with this device.
Part 90.635 requirement Antennas must be installed in accordance with FCC 90.635. With 17 dBi gain antennas the height of the antenna above average terrain (HAAT) must not exceed 80 m. For different gain antennas refer to the relevant rules. ◈LABEL WARNING◈ Advanced RF Technologies, Inc.
2. 2.1 OVERVIEW LED PSR-78-9533 LED indicator lights are located on the inside of the repeater towards the bottom. Below the LED indicators is a button that is used to trigger the door open alarm.
2.3 Cable Connection 2.3.1 AC Power AC power is accepted through a standard 3-wire male plug (MS3106A-22-2S) with phase, neutral, and ground leads. The AC power is wired to a high-efficiency DC switching power supply which is UL approved. The AC port is located at the bottom of the repeater and has a free range input of 100-240V AC.
2.3.2 External Alarm Figure 2-5 External Alarm port This port should be connected only to the fire alarm control panel.
2.3.3 RF Figure 2-6 RF ports The RF connections are made via two 4.3-10 female connectors. The RF connector labeled “DONOR” must be connected to the antenna pointing towards the base station. The DONOR port can receive both 700 and 800MHz public safety signals. The RF connection labeled “SERVER” must be connected to the antenna facing the area to be covered by the BDA. The repeater has a single SERVER port that supports both 700 and 800MHz public safety signals.
2.3.4 Back Up Battery Port This port connects to the ADRF-BBS/BBL-24 (24V battery backup unit) via a dedicated cable provided by the ADRF. Figure 2-7 Battery Backup Port If an ADRF-BBS/BBL-24 is connected to the repeater, the battery switch on the PSU must be switched to the ON position. This will enable the repeater to charge the ADRF-BBS/BBL-24 battery backup unit when AC power is present.
2.3.5 Grounding A ground cable is included in the box. The grounding terminal is located at the lower right-hand side of the BDA. The grounding cable should be properly connected before powering on the equipment. Figure 2-9 Ground Cable Terminal Ground terminals located on the side of the repeater and can support a ground cable up to 1.25mm² (16AWG) in diameter and should be permanently connected to a grounding bar. 2.3.

3.3 DL RF Power Input + gain does not match the output level. (default delta of 6 dB) Overpower Output level is above the max output levels. AGC On case (Soft: AGC Level + 1~2dB, Hard: AGC Level + >2dB) AGC Off case (Soft: max output level + 1~2dB, Hard: max output level + >2dB) VSWR Power is being reflected back to the repeater. Threshold = output power - 8dB. For example, if the repeater is outputting 24dBm and detects 16dBm of return power, then the VSWR will be triggered.

4. 4.1 INSTALLATION Installation Procedures 4.1.
Antenna Separation/Isolation The separation between the donor and server antennas is necessary to prevent oscillation. Oscillation occurs when the signal entering the system continually re-enters, due to the lack of separation between the donor and server antennas. In other words, the signal is being fed back into the system. This creates a constant amplification of the same signal. As a result, the noise level rises above the signal level. PSR-78-9533 4.
DO NOT APPLY A.C. POWER TO THE BDA UNTIL CABLES ARE CONNECTED TO BOTH PORTS OF THE BDA AND THE ANTENNAS. 1. To mount on a wall. Using appropriate screws and anchors and attach the BDA to the wall at the four mounting holes. 2. Ensure that the isolation between the donor antenna and the serving antennas is at least 15 dB greater than the BDA gain. 3.
5. PSR-78-9533 WEB-GUI SETUP The Web-GUI allows the user to communicate with the repeater either locally or remotely. To connect to the repeater locally, you will need a laptop with an Ethernet port and an RJ-45 crossover cable. To connect to the repeater remotely, you will need to have an active internet connection via an external modem or LAN. 5.

10. APPENDIX 10.1 Shutdown Retry Logic The function of the built-in shutdown routine is to protect the repeater from any further damage from a hardfail that the system may be experiencing. Within 5 seconds of a hard-fail alarm being detected, the repeater will start the shutdown routine. The repeater will shut down by powering of the HPAs (high-powered amplifiers) for 30 seconds. After 30 seconds have elapsed, the repeater will power on the HPAs and check to see if the hard-fail alarm still exists.
