6. Check the Upconverter front panel display. The following lines should appear
sequentially, displaying the channels’ pre-selected output center frequency:
#1 Frequency 757.5 MHz
#2 Frequency 757.5 MHz
#3 Frequency 757.5 MHz
#4 Frequency 757.5 MHz
7. Perform steps
8 to 13 for each Power Amplifier (PA).
8. Power ON the PA with the rear panel On/Off switch.
9. Verify that the PA enclosure’s fan is ON. You should be able to hear the fan, and
feel air blowing.
10. The internal soft start circuitry of the PA turns the bias voltages off until the power
supply is fully stable. The message appearing in the PA’s front panel LCD indicate
when the soft start is running. Once completed, the Forward and Reflected Power
and Power Supply readiness messages appear on the LCD.
11. The PA’s front panel LCD shows the current status of the PA. Verify that the
displayed power supply voltage is approximately 30Volt DC.
12. The system was pre-adjusted for the correct output level. Check that the PA’s LCD
shows an output level of between 5 to 20 W.
13. Ideally, the RFL Power (Reflected Power) should read zero. However, should a high
VSWR be detected, the amplifier will automatically shut down. If the expected value
is not achieved, refer to Initial Operation – Troubleshooting Issues on page 3.
14. Repeat steps
8 to 13 for the other Power Amplifiers.
15. Verify that the Monitoring Modems front panel LEDs behave as follows:
Power LED is steady ON.
Status LED is steady ON.
Setting the WMTS Network Properties
To set the WMTS network properties, you must modify the file regtree.txt to contain
the updated WMTS network properties, then compile it into regtree.rtr and download
it to the WMTS. You must therefore perform the following:
Edit and compile the Regtree.txt file, and download it to the WMTS as described in
Editing and Downloading the Regtree File on page 3.
Restart the WMTS described in Restarting the WMTS on page 3.
Make sure you have the following necessary equipment:
PC
Crossed Ethernet cable (or straight if there is a switch between WMTS and the PC)
