Chapter 1 Product Description Introduction This manual provides information and procedures for installation, operation, and maintenance of the OS-1933-E0-003 Multi-Carrier Power Amplifier (MCPA) Outdoor Booster System. Scope of Manual This manual is intended for use by service technicians familiar with similar types of equipment. It contains service information required for the equipment described and is current as of the printing date.
OS-1933-E3-003 Scope of Manual Controller Module The Controller Module shown in Fig. 1-7 provides control and monitoring of the OS operation through two Ethernet ports, Form-C alarms, external alarm inputs and LED status indicators. Status and configuration details are available through Ethernet web pages. Power System The power system shown in Figure 1-8, contains up to four +28.5 VDC plug-in 1300 watt rectifier modules.The rectifier modules convert the system AC input power to supply +28.
Scope of Manual OS-1933-E3-003 External Alarms The OS booster is capable of monitoring and reporting external Form-C alarms. Four channels are provided and each channel is programmed via the Controller Module for NO or NC conditions. For example, NO will fault when shorted to Common (C) and NC will fault when open to Common (C).The four channels are mapped to Form-C alarm outputs configured as such via the Ethernet web pages.

OS-1933-E3-003 Installation Instructions Table 2-10 MCPA Installation Step Action 1 Inspect MCPA rear-mounted 21-pin D-Sub connector. Verify all pins are straight, not broken or recessed, and alignment shield is not bent. 2 Verify MCPA RF OFF/ON/RESET switch in OFF (down) position. 3 Verify MCPA top and bottom quarter-turn fasteners are in unlocked position as shown in Figure 2-5. 4 Gently slide MCPA into subrack until seated.
Installation Instructions OS-1933-E3-003 Power system Installation The power system is comprised of rectifier modules that are inserted into the rectifier shelf. A minimum of two rectifier modules minimum is a practical consideration. Reference the recommended configurations detailed in Table 2-11. Install the Rectifier modules as instructed in Table 2-12. CAUTION: Do not slam the Rectifier Modules into the subrack.

Chapter 3 Operation INTRODUCTION This chapter provides steps for configuring and operating the OS System. The main topics are: • • • • • • Initial Start-Up Procedure OS System Configuration Procedure Rectifier MCPA Controller / Web Page Functions Alarm Functions Initial Start-Up Procedure Ensure that the OS System is installed per Chapter 2. The OS System should have AC, RF interfaces and possible communication and alarm interfaces. All the required Rectifier, MCPA and RCFU modules are installed.
OS-1933-E3-003 OS System Configuration Table 3-1 Initial Start-Up Procedure (Continued) 8 Measure the output DC voltage. There is a fused output for each MCPA and the Controller. All outputs should be 28.5V +/-0.5Vdc. If the voltage measurements are non-compliant with the limits troubleshoot the power system before proceeding. 9 Close and secure the rear door to ensure the rear fan will operate 10 Enable all of the installed MCPAs. After ~10seconds the MCPAs should display a solid green LED.
