Fusion Installation Procedures
• Click the check box to enable this feature.
• Click the check box to cause system test on power up.
• Enter values to schedule the date and time of the next system test.
• Enter values to specify the recurrence of the test by day or by week.
Schedule System Test allows periodic, automatic execution of the system
end-to-end test. Just like Perform System Test, a Schedule System Test suspends
normal service for the duration of the test; calls are dropped, and no new calls can
be established during the test. Test duration depends on the configuration (number
of RAUs) and requires one or two minutes to complete.
After completion of the system test, the scheduled system test time is updated to
the next test time, and an event log entry is made.

11. In the Band area, do the following:
• You should not have to select the bands. The system self configures the band
by validating that all the RAUs connected are the same type.
• When both bands are not configured, use the Shutdown check box. The system
will ignore any alarms generated from the shutdown bands.
• Use the pull-down to specify the Uplink and Downlink gain for each band. You
can set system gain within the specified range in 1 dB increments.
• Use the pull-down to set the Uplink Automatic Level Control to either “Single”
or “Multiple” for each band in the system. (The default is “Multiple.”
12. In the Input/Output Alarms area, do the following for each Alarm Sense:
