Step 7. Save this file as text, and then close it.
Step 8. Start the EMS CONFIG CLI application to run “script <CLI script>. Do this by
entering the following:
>enable <user name> <password>
>configure
>script scripts/rfs/rfs_<serial number>_<7-digit frequency>.cli
NOTE: For Unix operating systems, the CLI text is case sensitive and the slash marks
should be backward slashes instead of forward slashes.
Step 9. View the Power Splitter values in EMS to verify that the CLI script ran as expected.
The Power Splitter values may be found under Layer 1 / Show Configuration >
Antenna Table. You will need to “Refresh” the active screen to view the
update/changes.
Step 10. Type “Exit” twice to exit CLI edit mode.
Cable & RFS Performance
A. Cable Loss (B40-D48) - Enter the values measured during the cable sweeps.
Include the minus sign on all entries. Include jumpers and surge protectors.
B. Insertion Loss Through Cal Cable and RFS (C54 - E69) - Enter values measured
during the RF sweeps of the cables and the RFS. Include the minus sign for all
entries.
C. Cal Path Loss (calculated) (H54-H69) - A calculated value based on absolute loss
measured during RF sweeps. The measured cable loss for antenna 1 plus 3dB for
inherent loss in the RFS (internal cables and LNA loss) is subtracted from the
measured TX path loss to give absolute calibration path loss. It is important to
check this value to ensure that it does not exceed -45dB.
D. LNA Gain (calculated) (J55 - L69) - A calculated value based on absolute loss
measured during RF sweeps. The absolute value of the difference between TX
path loss and RX path loss equals LNA gain for each antenna path.
Receiver Performance
A. Backplane Slot & Pin # (A76-A83) - These are the pin numbers for the baseband
output of the two channel processor slots. Only accessible in the Ripwave 2.4
GHz system if the back plate is removed. Only used in extreme situations where
access from the front using the CHP test card is not available. Do not use this
method in a Ripwave 2.6 GHz system. Damage will occur to the interconnecting
RF cables on the channel filters.
