2. Confirm that the RF-O! transmitter is dekeyed
a. Confirm front panel LED PA Keyed is OFF.
b. Turn OFF RFO Power at DC-DC board.
3. Terminate the station into the normal antenna system.
a. Remove 500-Watt, 50-ohm RF load and jumper cable from the transmitter RF output
connector located at the cabinet top.
b. Reconnect the antenna RF cable to the transmitter RF output connector.
Note: Observe safety and static precautions while adjusting cabling within the station. Always use
the proper torque wrench to tighten and loosen the RF cables on the station.
4. Turn ON the RF-O! transmitter at the DC-DC board.
5. Reconnect the network by plugging the coaxial T-connector at the transceiver on the
RF-B! transmitter controller.
If the RF-O! transmitter does not resume transmitting paging data within one minute,
reset the RF-B! transmitter controller using either the front panel reset switch or by typing
the RFB FIPS command:
The RF-B! transmitter controller must acquire GPS lock, and can take as long as 15
minutes to do so before it transmits in test mode.
6. If the station is on a live system, verify that a page can be received before leaving the
station.
7. Once the transmitter keys 60 times with network data, recheck power out using the RFO
FIPS command: a 80 and verify that they are still within specifications.
DANGER
Before disconnecting the transmitter from antenna RF output cable,
ensure that the transmitter is not transmitting.
RFB FIPS: a 117 (data terminal must be connected to the RF-B! FIPS port)
