REP1009V1.xxM0062A0B.doc Id.-No. 148964 Page 511.12.981 IntroductionThis manual describes the functions of the standard software REP1009V1.xx implemented inband/channel selective Repeaters of the second generation. These Repeaters can be set locallyor remotely. A PCMCIA slot for modem operation is available. The design of the Repeatercomprises a large number of functions which the operator may monitor via terminal emulationprogram or the MIKOM OMC software platform. An easy to understand and easy to learncommunication language supports the operator to query status reports from the Repeater or tochange settings.Your Repeater is equipped with the required software which enables the operator tocommunicate with the microprocessor of the control module.The communication with the microprocessor of the control module is realized with a VT100compatible dialogue.The software is accessible in two different ways.n Locallyn RemotelyBoth possibilities are described below.• The communication can be done locally by connecting a Laptop or a PC with VT100emulation or a VT100 terminal via the control cable.Required equipment: - Laptop or PC with terminal program, e.g. PROCOMM- one serial RS232 cable: SUB-D9 (female) to SUB-D9 (female)Laptop or PCwith terminal programfigure 1-1 Repeater locally controlled

As an example, x can be substituted by 1 or 2 corresponding to thewanted position in the telephone list and number can be substituted by the telephone number,which may consists of up to 25 characters.↵↵ stands for carriage return. It indicates to press the return key. If, in the above example, thetelephone number 2716 with priority 2 has to be entered the following command has to betyped:SET NUM 2 2716 ↵

Theseverity level for an optional alarm can only be changed if the option is enabled.

REP1009V1.xxM0062A0B.doc Id.-No. 148964 Page 18 11.12.98The severity parameter defines five levels for an alarm message and can be set in the alarmmask. The severity levels indicate how the capability of the managed object has been affected.The levels are described below and are ordered from most severe to least severe:- Critical: The critical severity level indicates that a service affecting condition hasoccurred and an immediate corrective action is required to restore the capabilityof the managed object.- Major: The major severity level indicates that a service affecting condition hasdeveloped and an urgent corrective action is required. Such a severity can bereported, for example, when there is a severe degradation in the capability of themanaged object and its full capability must be restored.- Minor: The minor severity level indicates the existence of a non-service affecting faultcondition and that corrective actions should be taken in order to prevent a moreserious failure. Such a severity can be reported, for example, when the detectedalarm condition is not currently degrading the capability of the managed object.- Warning: The warning severity level indicates the detection of a potential or impendingservice affecting failure before any significant effect has been caused. Actionshould be taken to further diagnose and correction of the problem shall preventa more serious service affecting failure.- Disable: The disable severity level indicates that the detected failure has no influenceon the system and shall not be sent to the terminal.The alarm message for all status alarms will not be sent, if the alarm mask is set to DIS or themodule is deactivated with PWRDOWN ENA.5.3.2 SET ALCTHR, setting of the ALC thresholdWith this command it is possible to set the ALC threshold. The value for the ALC thresholdwill be determined in factory and can be found on a label on the RF modules. In case a secondmodule will be mounted or a module will be exchanged the values for the ALC threshold haveto be compared. If the modules have different values, the higher value must be set, due to thefact that the threshold can only be set for the whole Repeater.F Note: The higher ALC threshold value has to be set.Syntax: SET ALCTHR ↵Response: BAND-MODULE ( 1/2 3/4 5/6 7/8 ): ↵

Due to the fact that the report isvery long the GET report can be split in two parts. You have to type GET1 to see the first partand GET2 to see the second part.In the following an example of a GET1 and a GET2 report is given.

REP1009V1.xxM0062A0B.doc Id.-No. 148964 Page 41 11.12.985.9 Error messagesThere are two error messages resulting from erroneous inputs and one error message thatresults from hardware failure.5.9.1 SYNTAX ERRORThis error message will be returned if a command is written not correctly or if the writtencommand does not exist. The computer is ready for new inputs immediately.5.9.2 VALUE ERRORThis error message will be returned if a non-plausible value has been entered. Possibly, thevalue was out of the defined range, as e.g. in case of a negative number, or it was not in thedefined range of the character set as e.g. 19H in INIT STR.5.9.3 I²C-BUS ERRORThis error occurs if a part of the hardware has been damaged, e.g. the control module cannotget access to a synthesizer, because of a bad ribbon cable or an I²C-Bus slave ties the one lineof the bus to ground.5.10 Features1. By pressing the arrow keys ↑ or ↓, the last ten commands, stored in the command bufferwill be repeated forward and backward.2. To correct a typing error use backspace function as usual.3. After typing a command of an option which is not active, the response is “OPTION NOTACTIVE”.
