Important Safety Information
Antennas used for the purpose of radiating signals indoors are limited to a maximum gain of 3 dBi. The
outdoor antenna used for the purpose of communicating to the wireless infrastructure is limited to 3dBi
gain, or any combination of gain and loss that equates to 3dB at input. Each antenna must be positioned
to observe minimum separation requirements from all users and bystanders. The following guidelines
should be used when considering separation distances.
INDOOR antennas must be placed such that, under normal conditions, personnel cannot come within
20 cm (~8.0 in.) from any inside antenna. Adhering to this minimum separation will ensure that the
employee or bystander cannot exceed RF exposures beyond the maximum permissible limit as defined
by section 1.1310 i.e. limits for General Population/Uncontrolled Exposure.
OUTDOOR antenna must be positioned such that, under normal conditions, personnel cannot approach
closer than 120 cm. (~4 ft.). A non- directional antenna having a maximum gain of 3 dBi is used,
precautions should be taken to prevent personnel from routinely passing closer than specified.
Cellular Specialties, Inc. grants to the purchaser a fully paid license, at no additional
charge, to copy or otherwise reproduce all or portions of the product documentation. Such
reproduction shall be for the purchasers use only.

Hardware Operations
Test Point Locations and Values
The CSI repeater, CS12-553-401, by design, has no external test points. The Power and Filter modules are
sealed with no user serviceable parts inside. The CBC/FAN Module had no user serviceable parts, if fans
are observed to fail the module can be sent back to CSI for evaluation. Testing and configuration is done
exclusively by interfacing the repeater with a laptop or desktop computer and using the Web based GUI or
the TMI. Both user interfaces will provide a complete status of the repeater. In most cases if all other
components of the system prove to be working properly and the repeater is not, the user will need to
return the unit to CSI for inspection and repair. See the Warranty and Repair Procedures in Section 3 of
this manual.
If the covers for the Power and or Filter modules are removed by the user the warranty will be void and
the cost of any needed repair will be the responsibility of the user.
Indicator Lights
This repeater was designed with only two external indicator lights. Both are approximately 3/4”
diameter LEDs. Located on the Filter Module face plate, between the COM and POWER IN ports, the first
LED labeled POWER/FAULT glows red as the repeater is powered up. When the unit completes all of
it’s bootup procedures the LED will change color and glow green to indicate the system is operating
normally. If the LED remains red it’s an indication of a problem and the user will need to check the
system status using the Web based GUI or the TMI.
The second LED is located on the faceplate of the Power Module, between the DC IN and POWER OUT
connector ports. This light is designed only to show that the unit has DC current and will glow green
when the unit is powered.
Troubleshooting
All cables should be checked for shorts and opens.
The rooftop antenna (Donor Antenna), should be checked for damage.
The DAS antennas should be checked for damage.
If cables and antennas are acceptable and the problem persists, check repeater status using the Web
based GUI or the TMI. See Alarm/Action Matrix on the next page.
Should the repeater fail, or if service is lost and the cause can not be determined from the steps above, the user
should contact CSI Technical Support @ 1.877.844.4274. CSI will remotely access the repeater and advise the
respondent of next step(s).

the IP address of the repeater into the browser address line to connect. When connection is made the user will be
prompted for a user name and password. For the purpose of the GUI session, the default user name is webuser and
the password is csi1234. This can also be changed as required. Internet access is not required to use the GUI. (Note:
If you are connecting using a laptop, verify that your Ethernet port is powered. Some laptops will not allow Ethernet
connection when on battery power. If this is the case with the laptop you are using you will need to plug it in or update
the power settings.)
*DHCP is a protocol that allows computers on a network to be automatically configured appropriately for that network.
Networks provide DHCP service by maintaining one or more servers that listen for special broadcasts on the network,
called DHCP requests. These requests are made by computers when they first join a particular network. The DHCP
server replies with configuration information that the requester uses to join the network.
In the case of this repeater, the unit is configured to act as a DHCP server by default. This means that a computer
configured to make a DHCP request on joining a network (most laptops are set up this way) will automatically receive a
configuration from the repeater when it is connected to it via the local network port. This connection is made with either
a crossover cable or an Ethernet switch or hub.
One word of caution: The repeater, if it joins a network already managed by another DHCP server, may cause
disruptions in that network. To avoid any such problems, reconfigure the unit for static or DHCP client mode before
connecting it to such a network. (The local networking config page in the web interface, and the menu interface, can
be used to achieve this.)

computer) that controls the unit. The “SNMP Configuration” option is not used or supported in this version of product.
========================
Networking Configuration
========================
(1)
Local Network Configuration
The “Local Networking Configuration” menu allows the user to configure the Ethernet port to operate in one of
three modes once enabled. If the unit is configured to have a static IP address, then the user must know what the
characteristics of the network are that the unit will be connected to. In DHCP client mode, the unit will broadcast a
request for an IP address from a properly configured DHCP server on the network. In DHCP server mode (default)
the unit will assign itself an IP address of 192.168.1.100 and it will also listen for DHCP IP address requests. If the
user connects a device (laptop) directly to the Ethernet port (cabling requirements may differ) the unit will issue an
IP address of 192.168.1.90. The unit is currently capable of issuing one client address. This is done to limit
cataclysmic events should the unit be connected to a network that already has a DHCP server.

Software Operations
The repeater’s operating software have two modes, an Operational mode and a Maintenance mode. These are
described below.
Operational Mode:
Upon power up, the System will begin operation in the Operational Mode. Using a “Band Switching Algorithm” the repeater
will not key until a GPS position fix is obtained and the unit is within an Area Definition.
Once GPS position fix is obtain the repeater will begin operation based on the Area Definitions “Channel Power
Measurement and Keying Decision” and “Low Isolation Detection and Protection” algorithms. The operational software
will continuously monitor the system’s environment and make the necessary adjustments to keep the product operating
with specifications and within the normal operating range of the Product and FCC Type Certification.
System Status
The Operating Software provides real time status data that reports the state of the repeater. This status contains:
Timestamp
System Up Time
Software Version
System Serial Number
Model Number
Item Number
Location
Modem Signal Strength
Modem Registration Status
Modem Phone Number

Currently System events are stored to a Log File. In future releases, with the exception of the System Serial Number
and System Identifier, The Real Time Status of the Product will be saved to nonvolatile memory for retrieval. The
nonvolatile memory will be able to store 48 hours of Status data, with up to 6 complete status records per minute. The
interval that the status records are saved will be user defined.
The Operating Software will also record to nonvolatile memory and make available to a user in the Maintenance Mode:
A count and time stamp each time the processor is booted.
A count and time stamp of each time the operating software is placed into the Maintenance Mode, and the User ID
of the operator that performed the action.
A count and time stamp each time the Watchdog Timer is activated, and the associated debugging information
available at the time of activation of the Watchdog Timer.
The count and time stamp of any activation of the “Low Isolation Detection and Protection Algorithm” as defined in
attachment C of this document.
Alarms
The Operating Software has the ability to monitor a System for conditions that are out of normal operation, triggering
an alarm event. The Operating software in conjunction with the Communications Subsystem is capable of sending
alarm messages via E-mail using standard SMTP and POP3 protocols to a User Provisioned e-mail account.
Each Alarm defined has these User Provisioned Capabilities.:
Disable the System: The Operating software can disable the System (prohibit Keying) until the alarm
condition is cleared.
Alarm Filter Conditions: A Filter Condition (such as X number of occurrences per hour) to the alarm to
prevent false or un-useful notifications if provisioned.
Send an Alarm Message: The Operating Software can send a notification via message E-mail through the
Communications Subsystem if provisioned.
Alarm Clear Message: The Operating Software can send an alarm clear message when an alarm
condition clears if provisioned.

Software Operations
Maintenance Mode:
The repeater has, in addition to it’s normal “Operational Mode” a “Maintenance Mode”. After system boot up this mode can
be accessed in the TMI only by typing the user name and password of service.
This mode of operation provides all the same menus and features as shown in the software overview on
previous pages except that upon entering the Maintenance Mode, the product will de-key and await instructions
from a connected user. During the Maintenance Mode of operation the Operating Software supports:
Manual operation of the Key/De-Key function.
Manual operation of the Area Definition Switching function.
Manual Setting of the gain setting in both the Uplink and Downlink Directions
Retrieval of all current User Provisioned Settings from the Product
Retrieval of the Current Version of software in the Product
Setting of all User Provisioned Settings
Retrieval of logged Status data
Retrieval of boot counts, Maintenance Mode entry counts, Watch Dog timer events with debugging data, and
Low Isolation Detection and Protection events.
The Ability to Disable and Enable the System.
A Method to automatically place the System back into operation upon the discontinuance of the Maintenance
session.
A Method to automatically place the stem back into operation after a User Provisioned time limit of inactivity in
the Maintenance Mode.
Ability to load Operating Software into the repeater’s processor.
Ability to perform a “soft” reset of the processor.
