User Manual

5.2 Using the GUI. (SET PARAMETERS)

On this page, the user also has the option to select up to any 5 bands they

would like the QUICK VIEW DIALS to monitor which dynamically display the

DL output power over on the DASHBOARD page.

4. Using the GUI. (SET ALARMS)

On the SET ALARMS page the user can set the trigger points for when an

alarm will activate and display RED or optionally send an automated

notification out to as many as 4 users simultaneously. The parameters

monitored on this page include Low RSSI, Low Output Power, MUTE

activation and Signal Oscillation. The user can define what they consider to

be a low threshold point when an alarm should be triggered and a notification

sent for the RSSI and Output Power limit. They also have the option to select

if they want a MUTE or Oscillation notification sent out as well. If the email

and SMS fields are not populated, alarms will just be displayed and logged.

5.3 Using the GUI. (DASHBOARD)

The DASHBOARD page provides an overview of how the repeater is

functioning. The view of this page dynamically changes depending on if the

repeater is operating in preset or custom mode.

The RSSI, AGC, MGC, Output Power, UL Overdrive, UL Sleep, MUTE,

Alarms, Operating Temps and Quick View Dials are all dynamically

displayed in real time on this page. The user gets to see when the output

power exceeds the set limits and exactly how much AGC is being added to

keep the repeater within the set output power limit range, as well as when

any threshold limit is exceed which will then send the respective circuit into

active MUTE / Shutdown.

Because of this, it allows the user to easily determine exactly how much

additional MGC is needed to prevent the repeater from going into active

AGC mode and maintain a stable output.

This page also has a unique feature called an UL Overdrive Alarm. This

alarm was designed for scenarios where the DAS is also providing coverage

to an underground parking garage and someone enters the garage with an

in-car signal booster which inadvertently sends the respective UL circuit

beyond its set UL limit. The repeater detects this and immediately adds AGC

to the respective circuit in order to protect the macro from severe

interference. If the AGC range is exceeded (10dB) the respective circuit

then goes into MUTE and then attempts the auto restart sequence.
