Viewing the Remote RF Report
To access the Remote Forward Gain Settings report, in the System Menu bar, click System
Information > Get Information, and then in the Reports panel Type list, select Remote RF.
The Remote Forward Gain Settings table provides the following information:
• Host columns—identifies the Host in the link
– DART Id—number assigned by the EMS to the Host DART for identification
purposes
– DART Name—user-defined name for the DART.
• Remote columns—identifies the Remote and its elements
– DART Id—Unit ID of PRU/URU based upon layered address; see “Unit
Identification” on page 43
– DART Name—user-defined label for the PRU/URU
– DART Mode—how RF functions on that DART
• Standby—forces the RF function to be muted in the Host and its linked
Remote.
• Normal—allows the system to operate normally (RF function not forced to
be muted), assuming all other system components are in proper working
order. (Default setting.)
– Forward Gain (db)—actual gain, not attenuation, applied to the RF forward path
signal (where 0 = 0 dB gain, 1 = 1 dB gain, and so forth)
– RF Power (dBm)—estimated power level based upon input level and gain.
– Max Power (dBm)—the maximum LPA power values
– VSWR—the Voltage Standing Wave Ratio (VSWR) for the LPA. An LPA VSWR
Fault occurs if the VSWR measurement exceeds the threshold, which is 3:1.
– LPA Mode—the LPA Mode, which can be Normal or Standby
– LPA Status—the LPA status. In case of dual LPA, it will indicate the value for
both LPAs as either 1-Offline or 2-Operating.
• Passband—type of passband provided by the DART
• Frequency (MHz)—passband frequency of the DART
