CONFIDENTIAL D-620003-0-20 Rev K
Power is supplied by the Expansion Hub. Upon power up, the LEDs blinks for
two seconds as a visual check that they are functioning. After the two-second test:
• The
LINK LED should be green indicating that it is receiving power and com-
munications from the Expansion Hub.
• The
ALARM LED should be red until the Main Hub issues the band command,
within about 20 seconds, then it should be green.
7.4.3.1 Troubleshooting RAU LEDs During Installation
• The LINK and ALARM LEDs should be green, and remain green for longer than 90
seconds. The
ALARM LED will be red if the system band has not been pro-
grammed.
7.4.3.2 Installing RAUs in a Multiple Operator System
When installing both iDEN and Cellular systems in parallel, either as dual-band or
multiple operator systems, you must take special provision to assure that the individ-
ual RAUs do not interfere with each other.
The 800 MHz Cellular and iDEN RAU’s antennas must be separated by 6 to 8
meters (20 to 26 feet) to assure that the iDEN downlink signals do not interfere
with the Cellular uplink signals.
