REPLACING A RAU
CAUTION! The new RAU must support the same bands as the one you are replacing. If the RAU is of the
wrong band combination, it will not operate properly in the system.
1 Log in to AdminBrowser, and then do the following:
a Click System Information.
b Click Show System Tree.
c Select Fusion Wideband Main
Hub.
d Click Get System Information.
e All system settings for Hubs and RAUs will displa
y. Write down or save the Uplink and
Downlink Attenuation setting so you can set the new RAU with the same settings.
f Click Cancel to close the
window.
2 Verify that the new RAU is of the same frequency bands
as the one replaced.
3 Disconnect the CATV cable and antenna cable from the unit to be replaced.
4 Install the new RAU.
5 Connect the antenna
cable and then the CATV cable to the new RAU.
6 Click System
Configuration.
7 Click Show System Tree
.
8 Select the new Fusion Wideband RAU, and then click
Edit Unit Properties.
9 Set the attenuation of each band as the old RA
U was programmed, and then click Save
Properties.
10 When convenient, perform System Test to optimize performance.
CAUTION! During System Test, the entire system is temporarily off-line and no RF is being transmitted.
11 The RAU’s LINK and ALARM LEDs should blink (green/red) on power up.
If the LEDs do not blink on power up, replace the RAU.
12 After several seconds both LEDs should change to green
, which indicates that the unit has
been successfully replaced, there is communication with the Hub, and the RAU band is
correct.
If
the LINK LED remains green and the
ALARM LED remains red, verify that the RAU
model is correct for the intended frequency band.
Disconnect the cable and then reconnect it once; doi
ng this more than once will not
change the result.
If
both LEDs still don’t change to green, use AdminBrowser to determine
the exact nature
of the fault and see a recommendation of how to correct it.
If both LEDs turn red (after 90 seconds), the Hub has terminate
d communications.
