APEX1930 USER MANUAL V1.0.00 Tech Support: 1-888-317-8766 18 (Default value is 20 minutes.) 5.4.3. User Note <User Note> • Location Information: Type the location information such as the building name, address, city, state, zip code and telephone, and then click Apply. • Donor Site Information: Type the base station’s ID, and then click Apply. • Installer Information: Type the installer information such as the company, name and telephone, Click Apply. 5.4.4. User Comment <User Comment> • User Comment: The user can store up to 50 comments in memory. The length of each comment is limited to 20 characters. 5.5. GUI System Control APEX1930 USER MANUAL V1.0.00 Tech Support: 1-888-317-8766 19 5.5.1. System Control • Easy Setup is a fast start function. The function measures isolation, detects input level and assing gain to achieve maximum output power. The function ends with the repeater set to amplify siganals in both directions within the confines of the band selection. Before runing easy setup, set the center frequency and bandwidth (refer to 4.3.3 part 2). Maximum output power requires at least -71dBm input power and suficient antenna isolaiton. • Isolatoin Check can be executed at anytime to measure isolation between the donor and server antennas. Isolation Check momentarily disables service. Isolation check automatically runs when factory default is initiated. • Factory Default restores the amplifier to its initial state. The function ends with amplifiers off, AGC mode off, gain set to minimum(55dB) and UL gain offset set to 0dB. Band sellection and APEX1930 USER MANUAL V1.0.00 Tech Support: 1-888-317-8766 20 all other system parameters are not changed. The featurs is usefull in claering abnormal conditions. • System Reset cycles the microporcessor unit. The function is similar to switching off/on the repeater power switch. 5.5.2. Operating Control • DL and UL Path Control allows the user to toggle on or off the power ampligiers. • DL and UL Gain is available when AGC mode is off. The user may enter gain values manually. Manual gain control is an alternative to autonatic gain control(AGC). Manual gain is disabled (grayed out) when AGC mode is on. Gain cannot be controlled manually above the available gain found on the status page. The system will not allow gain to be increased such that maximum output power(24dBm) is exceeded. • Gain Tracking sets UL gain equal to DL gain. The feature helos maintain forward and reverse link ballance. The function control is grayed out when AGC mode is on. • Automatic Gain Control : - In contrast to manual gain control, automatic gain control (AGC) sets gain such that the desired amplifier output level (dBm) is automatically set. - The user controls gain by adjusting the AGC level. The user may set the level from 0dBm to 24dBm. AGC can be used to control the signal level radiated from the server antennas. - AGC may also be user to match the repeater to a DAS (distributed antenna system). AGC level may be restricted by available gain and DL input power. • UL Gain offset is used in conjuction with AGC to reduce the amount of amplification in the reverse direction (uplink). In the cases UL offset is set to 0dB. • Automatic Shutdown (ASD): - ASD temporarily shuts down the amplifier if the ASD level is exeded. It is not necessary to turn off ASD. ASD events are stored in the alarm hostory log. Repeated ASD events will evenually shutdown the amplifier permanently and trigger the external shutdown lamp. - ASD Level is set to 27dBm by default. It is not necessary to change the default level. APEX1930 USER MANUAL V1.0.00 Tech Support: 1-888-317-8766 21 5.5.3. Alarm Control • Alarm response time may be set between 1 and 5 minutes. • Alam Mask allows the user to customize the type of alarms sent to the SNMP server when remote monitoring is in use. 5.5.4. Band select • Band select sets the digital filter to the center frequency and bandwidth of the local service for which the repeater is intended to ampligy. Likewise, all other signals outside of the selected Center Frequency and Bandwidth are rejected. • The user can select one, two three distinct sections within the PCS band. Each of the 1st, 2nd and 3rd filter blocks can be set to 1MHz to 20MHz of Bandwidth. Only the downlink center frequency is set by the user. The uplink center frequency are automatically set in acordance with the downlink frequencies. • Filter Rejection allows the user to change the digital filter characteristics. Normal rejectrion is used for CDMA and EVDO service. High regection is used for LTE service. • Frequency information is available as a reference for seting the center frequency and band width (refer to section 7). 5.6. GUI System Control 5.6.1. Manual Setting [Recommended] 5.6.1.1. Auto Gain Control Setting Step 1. Isolation Check The Isolation will calculate the Available Maximum Gain which defines the maximum gain to be setup. Click Isolation APEX1930 USER MANUAL V1.0.00 Tech Support: 1-888-317-8766 22 Step 2. Click OK. Step 3. When below pop-up appears after Isolation is completed, Click OK. Step 4. AGC must be turned on. AGC automatically assigns gain in accordance with AGC level. Use AGC level to increase or decrease gain. (Gain Offset is a gain differential between DL Output gain and UL output gain.) Ex>AGC Level 24dBm, Gain Offset -3dB → DL Output +24dBm, UL Output +21dBm AGC Level 24dBm, Gain Offset 0dB → DL Output +24dBm, UL Output +24dBm APEX1930 USER MANUAL V1.0.00 Tech Support: 1-888-317-8766 23 Step 5. Turn on the DL and UL path controls. 5.6.1.2. Manual Gain setting When you want to set gain value not using Auto Gain control refer to the following. Step 1. For manual gain control AGC must be turned off. APEX1930 USER MANUAL V1.0.00 Tech Support: 1-888-317-8766 24 Step 2. The user can select any gain value as long as it does over-drive the amplifier or exceed isolation requirements. Gain is automatically limited where conditions do not permit high gain. Select the DL and …

The EUT was placed on a wooden turn table 3 meters from the receive antenna. The receive antenna height and turn table rotation was adjusted for the highest reading on the receive spectrum analyzer. For CDMA signals, a peak detector is used, with RBW = VBW = 3MHz. For AMPS, GSM, and NADC TDMA signals, a peak detector is used, with RBW = VBW = 1MHz, A Horn antenna was substituted in place of the EUT. This Horn antenna was driven by a signal generator and the level of the signal generator was adjusted to obtain the same receive spectrum analyzer reading. This spurious level is recorded. For reading 1GHz, the above procedure is repeated using horn antennas and the difference between the gain of the horn and an isotropic or dipole antenna are taken into consideration. 2.
