Factory defaults are specified in ALC ON and ASD ON. While the ALC and ASD are on, the gain setup is not available and an Error may be occurred. >>8TG 80↵ >>8RG 80↵ >>9TG 80↵ >>9RG 80↵ >>8B 1↵ >>8F 0↵ >>8F 1↵ >>8F 2↵ >>9F 0↵ >>9F 1↵ >>9F 2↵
iDEN MINI User’s Manual -29- 3 ALC (Automatic Level Control) Level Setup: 30dBm * ALC (Automatic Level Control) maintains the specific TX and RX output power by the setup parameter. Do not set the ALC value over 30. 4 ASD* (Automatic Shut Down) Setup: 9 Level: 33dBm, Time: 3sec, Count: 10 5 Tx HPA On 6 Rx HPA On <Specifying of the operating frequencies, bandwidth, and gains> >>RHPA ON↵ >>TXALC_LEVEL 30↵ >>TXALC ON↵ >>RXALC_LEVEL 30↵ >>RXALC ON↵ >>ASD_LEVEL 33↵ >>ASD_TIME 3↵ >>ASD_COUNT 10↵ >>ASD ON↵ * If the output power gets higher than “ASD_LEVEL”, the repeater will shut down for “ASD_TIME” time and then turn on the amp and measure the output power again. If this repeats “ASD_COUNT” times, the repeater will shut down completely. >>THPA ON↵

iDEN MINI User’s Manual -37- 5. Troubleshooting 5.1 RF Connection Check Problem Either the downlink output power or the uplink output power (=Input Power to the repeater) is too weak. Solution Check if the following RF connections are loose: 1. The cable connection from the donor antenna to the donor antenna port 2. The cable connection from the service antenna port to the service antenna 5.2 Power Connection Problem All LEDs at the bottom are turned off. Figure 17. LEDs Off Solution Check if the power cord is connected correctly and the green LED at the bottom is on.

iDEN MINI User’s Manual -39- * Check points The red LED can be turned on due to out of range as the following below: Alarms Lower Upper Tx Input -70dBm -30dBm Tx/Rx Output 0dBm 35dBm Temperature -10°C 80°C DC Voltage 20V 30V DC Current 0A 5A Solution If the red light LED is steady in the range of critical values, request a technical support.
iDEN MINI User’s Manual -40- 6. Glossary 6.1 ALC (Automatic Level Control) * ALC feature prevents the repeater from exceeding its maximum output power, by reducing the gain automatically. ALC is used to adjust the gain to an appropriate level for a range of input signal levels. [Example] [For the repeater with 30dBm Maximum Output power, 80dB Maximum Gain /30dB Gain control range, -> If input signal is -30Bm and ALC is set as 30dBm, the gain will be 60dB to adjust to the level. If input signal is -55dBm, the output power will be 25dBm by the limitation of the maximum gain even though the ALC is set as 30dBm.] 6.2 ASD (Automatic Shutdown) * Automatic shut down protects the repeater itself from the oscillation or excessive input signal and eliminates any degradation to the network. There are three parameters, ASD_LEVEL, ASD_TIME and ASD_COUNT. If the output power gets higher than “ASD_LEVEL”, the repeater will shut down for “ASD_TIME” time and then turn the amp back on and measure the output power again. If this repeats “ASD_COUNT” times, the repeater will shut down completely. [Example] [For the repeater with 30dBm Maximum Output power, 80dB Maximum Gain /30dB Gain control range, Assuming ASD_ LEVEL: 35dBm, ASD_TIME: 3sec, ASD_COUNT: 3 If the output power is 35dBm [ASD_LEVEL] and higher for some reasons, the repeater will have shut down for 3 seconds [ASD_TIME]. If this repeats 3 times [ASD_COUNT], the repeater will shut down completely.]
