The exterior N-type connector is on the surge side of alightning protector that is mounted within the enclosure. On the inside of the enclosure, theprotected side of the lightning protector is also equipped with an N-type female connector. Acoaxial jumper cable (included with the enclosure) is used for connecting the protected side ofthe lightning protector to the ANTENNA port on the STM. 3.7 AC Power Wiring and GroundingThe RU outdoor cabinet is equipped with a stub cable for the AC power connections. The ACpower cable provides three wire leads (Load, Neutral, and Ground) that must be connected to a120 or 240 VAC power source. The AC power cable exits the cabinet though a 3/4-inch NPTthreaded hole located on the bottom of the cabinet. The threaded hole accepts a standard 3/4-inch AC conduit fitting. A 3/4-inch to 1/2-inch reducer is also included if 1/2-inch conduit ispreferred over 3/4-inch conduit.From the exit point in the bottom of the cabinet, the AC power cable must be routed throughconduit to an external AC junction box (not provided) where it can be connected to the ACpower wiring. The junction box should be located within two feet of the cabinet and should beequipped with a 120 VAC GFCI outlet for powering test equipment and/or power tools. If ACpower spikes are likely to occur, the junction box should also include a surge protector toprotect the equipment from damage. Three wire nuts are included with the cabinet for completing the AC power wiring connections.The junction box wiring should be connected to the AC power source through a 20 Amp breakerbox (not provided). All AC power wiring should be run within conduit.

The EMS is used to provision andconfigure new systems for operation, set system operating parameters, get system alarm andstatus messages, and upgrade the system software. The EMS supports both local control by anon-site service technician and remote control by a Network Operations Center (NOC). 10.1 Primary ComponentsThe EMS, shown in Figure 2-17, consists of a PC-type desk-top computer (not provided) that isloaded with the EMS software. The EMS software is stored on a CD-ROM that is shippedseparately along with a User Manual and mouse pad. The EMS software must be installed onthe EMS computer along with the Java 2 Version 1.3.1 Runtime Environment software which isalso provided. Installation consists of inserting the CD-ROM into the computer’s CD-ROMdrive and then running the software install programs. This places the Java 2 RuntimeEnvironment and EMS software files in assigned folders on the computer’s hard drive. Figure 2-17. Digivance Element Management SystemThe EMS software may also be installed on a PC-type lap-top computer (not provided). A lap-top version of the EMS computer can be used as a portable network management tool forservice and maintenance purposes. A laptop EMS computer can be connected temporarily to asystem to enter the initial configuration data or to trouble-shoot problems and then removedwhen the task is completed. Permanent control and monitoring functions would be provided bythe desk-top EMS computer. EMS CD-ROM MANUALS CD-ROMORNOTE: COMPUTERNOT PROVIDED16803-CUSER MANUAL MOUSE PAD

A straight-through RS-232 interface cable (accessory item) equipped with amale DB-9 connector on one end and a PC-compatible connector on the other end is required tolink the EMS computer to the HU. When multiple HUs are networked together, the EMScomputer may be connected to the service connector on any one of the networked HUs. 10.3 NOC Interface ConnectionThe NOC interface connection between the EMS computer and the NOC requires that the EMScomputer be equipped with a connector that is configured to provide an RS-232 ASCIIinterface. The link between the EMS computer and the NOC would generally be supported by adata network. Cables and equipment (not provided) to support the RS-232 interface connectionbetween the EMS computer and the data network are required. 10.4 EMS Software User InterfaceThe EMS software provides two user interfaces: the Graphical User Interface (GUI) and theNetwork Operation Center-Network Element Manager (NOC/NEM) interface. Both interfacesprovide essentially the same functionality except only the GUI can upgrade the Digivancesystem with new system software. In addition, only the NOC/NEM interface can record andplay back alarm data. The GUI is presented at the EMS computer or on a laptop computer. The GUI is used for localcontrol and monitoring operations. The GUI consists of a series of displays and screens, such asthe one shown in Figure 2-18, that provide the user with alarm and status information and thatallow the user to set various operating parameters.
