OMC Server IP
Based on the current network conditions, users can enter the IP address
information of the equipment, which is connected to the OMT/OMC via
Ethernet. This connection via Ethernet is not available at this stage.
Phone No.
This is designed for authentication purpose when remote connection via
modem is required. It is the phone number to dial the equipment. Only the
phone number pre-defined in this field, will it be allowed to dial the equipment.
It is required to manually enter the phone number. Up to 5 phone numbers
are allowed. The use of phone number authentication can avoid unauthorized
use of the OMT. In addition, it can prevent the equipment receiving piles of
spam short messages, thus help the operator greatly reduce the cost.
Report Config
The Report No. is the SIM card number of the modem built into the OMC
Server computer.The equipment will send alarm SMS to this number.
If remote communication is needed via modem, users have to enable SMS
mode and set the report phone No. by entering the SIM card number of the
equipment built-in modem.
SMSC No.
It specifies the SMS center. Users have to set the service No. of SMSC for

Observation
Activate the OMT Main window. The system Initialization will
completed in about 2 minutes.
Click “Connect” button to enquire the repeater’s status. Proceed if
there is no alarm; else check the failure and attend to the alarm.
Keep RF switch ON and set the channel number of the repeater’s
operating frequency.
Observe DL input power from measured value. Align the direction of
donor antenna until the DL input power reading is maximized.
Note: To ensure that the measured DL input power is accurate, one
should set the DL ATT to “0” before performing the check.
Go to [Properties Info] and set [Equipment ID].
Enable the power supply by selecting “On” in [RF] -> [Switch]; go to
[Properties Info.] -> [Comm. Config.] and set OMC Phones No. , the
service No. of SMSC, Report Mode.
Select the equipment controlled and monitored parameters.
If the external devices are connected to the equipment for
management, please enable in the [External Alarm Info.] Interface.
Use test-handset to verify field intensity within the coverage area. If
needed, realign the service antenna to achieve the desired
coverage.
Note: If during operation, the equipment gain could not be set to
maximum or the output power is not high enough due to insufficient
donor and service antennas isolation, then the antennas’ position
should be changed to increase isolation. If the output power is too
high and ALC is activated, then adjust the DL ATT to achieve
optimal DL Gain.
Adjust UL gain and perform test calls. Typically, the UL gain is set
around 5dB less than DL gain. Perform test calls in the coverage
area while adjusting UL gain if required.
Note: If the repeater is near the BTS and the test call performance
is poor, this may be due to UL noise interference to the BTS. Users
can calculate and determine if the repeater UL noise will interfere
with the BTS.
Verify again that there is no unacceptable interference to BTS.
