This guide should be applied whenever a need exists to add pilot beacon capability to an existing system or when this
capability is being included with a new installation.
The general safety information in this guideline applies to both operating and service personnel. Speci! c warnings and
cautions will be found in other parts of this manual where they apply, but may not appear in this summary. Failure to comply
with these precautions or speci! c warnings elsewhere in the manual violates safety standards of design, manufacture, and
intended use of equipment. Cellular Specialties, Inc. assumes no liability for the customer’s failure to comply with these
requirements:
Grounding
This pilot beacon system is designed to operate from 100-240 VAC and should always
be operated with the ground wire properly connected. Do not remove or otherwise alter the
grounding lug on the power cord.
Explosive Atmospheres
To avoid explosion or ! re, do not operate this product in the presence of " ammable
gases or fumes.
Lightning Danger
Do not install or make adjustments to this unit during an electrical storm. Use of a suitable lightning arrester, such as
CSI’s model number CSI-CAP, is very strongly recommended.
No User Serviceable Parts Inside
HAZARDOUS VOLTAGES ARE PRESENT WHEN THE COVER IS REMOVED. Opening the chassis will void your
warranty. If you suspect a malfunction with this product, call your dealer or the Cellular Specialties Support Line at: (603)
626-6677, Toll Free (USA) 1-877-844-4274.
The purpose of this document is to provide a step-by-step procedure to help the experienced technician/engineer install
and commission an in-building wireless enhancement pilot beacon system. Following the procedures outlined will minimize
risks associated with modifying a live system and prevent service interruptions. This document assumes the technician/
engineer understands the basic principles and functionality involved with the system. It is geared to the practical concerns
of the installer.
Antennas used for the purpose of radiating signals indoors are limited to a maximum gain of 3 dBi. 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 de! ned by section 1.1310 i.e. limits for General Population/Uncon-
trolled Exposure.

The pilot beacon generator facilitates E911 and other location based services (LBS) for in building and/or DAS based installations
of CDMA2000/1xEV-DO cellular networks. In these situations the normal methods based for location determination, direct
reception of GPS by the mobile station or triangulation using the signals from multiple base stations, do not work. Signals from
the GPS system are suf• ciently weak that even if the mobile station’s GPS receiver might ultimately be able to lock on to the
satellites, the acquisition time will be too long. And since indoor service is typically provided either by a single strong local cell
or by using a repeater, there aren’t multiple signals on which to triangulate while DAS based deployments result in too many
signals with indeterminate timing. By placing a pilot signal at a known PN offset the LBS algorithm can quickly and reliably be
made aware that it is within a speci• c building or other location where normal location determining solutions are ineffective. This
information can be used to aid the GPS receiver in acquiring signals if they are present or be used as a position report directly
until more accurate information becomes available.

PN Pseudo random Number: A number chosen by some algorithm that approximates a random process. Can
be short for “PN Sequence”, “PN Number”, or “PN Offset” when discussing the CDMA2000 system.
PN Number In the CDMA2000 system only a subset of the possible PN Offsets are used for base station identi• cation.
Each of these allowed offsets is given a unique number from 0 to 511.
PN Offset In the CDMA2000 System each base station is identi• ed by the offset in time from the EST at which the
start of the Pilot PN Sequence occurs. The offset is speci• ed in terms of number of chips.
PN Sequence A sequence of pseudo random numbers. In the CDMA2000 system several such sequences are used. The
one relevant to ICEBreaker is the Pilot, or Short, sequence which is a 215 element long sequence of ones
and zeros.
PPS Pulse per Second: Refers the pulse repetition rate of the timing signal used as a time reference.

Tau Timing Offset or Delay Adjustment: In the CDMA2000 system the timing of the downlink signal is required
to be aligned with the EST as it is transmitted from the antenna. Tau allows the timing of the internal PN
Sequence to be adjusted to compensate for the delays of the base station hardware such that the timing
will be correct at the antenna

During Power up, the pilot beacon will require approximately three minutes for the internal computer to boot up.
During this time the LED on the front panel may light and go out several times. When boot is complete and no alarm
conditions exist, the LED indicators will be illuminated green.
Do not unplug the unit while it is in the boot up process!
Powering Up the Unit
To allow monitoring and control, the pilot beacon is equipped with four ports that provide external communication access (1
Ethernet CAT-5, 2 DB-9 serial, and 1 USB). The Ethernet, CAT-5 port is provided as a primary communications port to the
PC. One serial interface, COM 1, provides communications to local PC. The USB interface provides a means to download
! les from a memory device. The DB-9 pin assignments of COM 1 conform to the standard Electronic Industries Associa-
tion (EIA232) speci! cation. A diagram of the pin descriptions is provided on this page for reference.
Connecting a null modem cable to the COM 1 port and using a terminal emulation program with a PC will allow communi-
cation to the control processor’s Text Menu Interface (TMI). See Text Menu Interface section for further detail.
The proprietary external GPS receiver connection is made at the port labeled “GPS”. Do not connect other devices or
non-straight-through serial extension cables to this port. Place the GPS receiver in a location with the best view of the
unobstructed sky that is possible, although a 100% open view of the sky is not necessary to achieve a stable time lock.
Local Communication Interface Ports
• The installer should refer to the Safety Guidelines section and the Important Safety Information section for proper
antenna selection and installation. To avoid serious injury or death and damage to the pilot beacon, do not install server
antennas near overhead power lines or high power components. Allow enough distance so that if antennas should fall
they will not come in contact with those components.
• Close proximity to the server antennas with the pilot beacon in operation may expose the user or installer to RF
! elds that exceed FCC limits for human exposure.
WARNING! PILOT BEACON AND/OR HANDSET DAMAGE MAY OCCUR IF A HANDSET IS CONNECTED DI-
RECTLY TO THE PILOT BEACON OR THE COAX THAT LEADS TO THE PILOT BEACON.

EIA232 Pin Specifi cations
The diagram above is for reference only, it’s intended to provide a quick source for pinout information in the event it should be
necessary to adapt your serial cable because of an unusual connector con• guration. In the vast majority of cases this informa-
tion will not be needed.
There are no physical connections provided to speci• cally communicate system or alarm status. This information is embedded
in the information accessible via the communication ports described earlier.
The Universal Serial Bus (USB) interface conforms to Intel’s Universal Host Controller Interface (UHCI) version 1.1 dated
March 21, 1996. This interface will support data transfer rates up to 12 Mbps and can be used for software updates.
The Ethernet AUI conforms to IEEE 802.3 and is capable of supporting 10/100 Mbps communications speeds. This port is
used to provide access to the UI.

Primary access to the unit is gained using a LAN connection and a web browser program such as Firefox by Mozilla, or Internet Ex-
plorer from Microsoft. The beacon ships with the default IP address of 192.168.1.100, but it can be changed later if required.
If connecting directly to the unit from a laptop or PC with a crossover CAT-5E cable or over a LAN the user types the IP address of
the unit into the browser address line to connect. (Note: Most users will need to update the TCP/IP settings on their computer to enable
connection to a host that has a static IP. Select “Use the following IP Address” and enter the IP Address as follows: 192.168.1.x, where
“x” = any number from 2 to 254 inclusive other than 100. The subnet mask is 255.255.255.0. Questions pertaining to these settings
should be referred to the user’s IT department or you may refer to the Additional Tips section at the end of this manual.) When con-
nection 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.)

The Pilot Beacon can transmit up to eight simultaneous CDMA2000 signals for a Cell band unit and eleven for a PCS band unit. The
carrier frequency for each signal is set by entering the desired CDMA channel number for that signal.
Thus, there are eight or eleven Channel Number • elds, one for each of the possible signals.
The CDMA channel number is a unitless integer value with a split range of 1 to 799 and then 991 to 1023 for cell band, 1 to 1199 for PCS
band and 1-899 for AWS band. Duplicate channel numbers are not allowed.
Beacon Control
The default values for the Cell Band are:
Signal 1: CDMA Channel 384
Signal 2: CDMA Channel 425
Signal 3: CDMA Channel 466
Signal 4: CDMA Channel 507
Signal 5: CDMA Channel 548
Signal 6: CDMA Channel 589
Signal 7: CDMA Channel 770
Signal 8: CDMA Channel 729
The default values for the PCS Band are:
Signal 1: CDMA Channel 1
Signal 2: CDMA Channel 2
Signal 3: CDMA Channel 3
Signal 4: CDMA Channel 4
Signal 5: CDMA Channel 5
Signal 6: CDMA Channel 6
Signal 7: CDMA Channel 7
Signal 8: CDMA Channel 8
Signal 9: CDMA Channel 9
Signal 10: CDMA Channel 10
Signal 11: CDMA Channel 11
Each of the eight or eleven signals can be individually turned on or off. There is one transmit enable • eld for each signal.
Signal Transmit Enables
PN Offset
The PN Offset is a unitless integer value with a range of 0 to 511. The default value is zero.
Tau is a real value in units of microseconds with a range of 0 to 5.2 µsec and two decimal places of precision. Internally the value will be
rounded to the nearest 1/40th of a CDMA chip. The test equipment reads “Tau” as follows: Positive tau means the signal is llate. Nega-
tive is opposite. The tau “setting” on the unit works as follows: Positive tau is “back to the future” which means it creates the RF signal at
a sooner time than zero tau. Negative tau is opposite. When one sees a positive tau on the test equipment, and wishes to “zero” it, the
value of tau in the UI must be reduced to “zero it”.
Pilot Beacon Per Channel Transmit Power
This setting controls the CDMA Channel Power output by the Pilot Beacon for each carrier. All enabled carriers are transmitted at the
same power level. The total transmit power will be the sum of the power of all enable carriers. The user must set this power level such
that the total transmit power does not exceed the speci• ed maximum transmit power for the Pilot Beacon.
The Output Power is speci• ed in dBm with a range of 0.5 to 19.0 and a resolution of 0.5.
Composite Transmit Power
Composite output power is a display only • eld. The value is calculated from the Per Channel Tx Power and the number of channels that
are enabled.
There are three alternatives for the timing reference source.
GPS 1 Pulse Per second (default)
GPS Even Second Sync1
External Even Second Sync
Tau (Delay Correction)
Timing Reference Selection
The default values for the AWS Band are:
Signal 1: CDMA Channel 1
Signal 2: CDMA Channel 2
Signal 3: CDMA Channel 3
Signal 4: CDMA Channel 4
Signal 5: CDMA Channel 5
Signal 6: CDMA Channel 6
Signal 7: CDMA Channel 7
Signal 8: CDMA Channel 8
Signal 9: CDMA Channel 9
Signal 10: CDMA Channel 10
Signal 11: CDMA Channel 11

be set up with the same Sub Net and Sub Net Mask in order to establish a link. In other words, the IP addresses of both the computer
used and the pilot beacon must use the same group of IP address number sets. For example, the pilot beacon ships with the default IP
address of 192.168.1.100 and a Sub Net Mask of 255.255.255.0. In order to connect, the computer to be used for the link would normally
need an IP address of something like 192.168.1.12 with a Sub Net Mask of 255.255.255.0, the same Sub Net Mask as the pilot beacon.
In this example note: the last digit of the IP address may be any number except 1,100 and 255. Con• guring your PC is normally fairly
straight forward but it does vary somewhat with the operating system involved. If you require assistance, contact your IT department and
they will be able to set up your PC for you or you may review the Additional Tips Section at the end of the manual.
When the TeraTerm program is started, the following screen is displayed. Change the default host IP address to the IP address of the pi-
lot beacon to be controlled. In the case of a new install, the default address is 192.168.1.100 and has been assigned at the factory. Select
the service Telnet. The TCP Port must be 23.
Pressing the “OK” button will bring the user to the following screen, which will require the user to log in. The default user name is
“user”. The default password is “csi1234”.
In the • eld after the prompt “DSP85-cell-X login;” type the user name and password. After typing the password press the enter key and
the main menu will be displayed as shown in the text menu section.
Telnet and serial sessions both provide access to the same Text Menu Interface. We have already shown many of the options available
and all are self explanatory, so they will not be repeated.

If you are set up to use DHCP, the window shown below will be displayed.
Select “Use the following IP address:” and enter “192.168.1.2.” The subnet mask should automatically populate to “255.255.255.0”.
Nothing else will need to be chosen or entered. Click “OK”, then “OK again and retry connection.
A crossover Ethernet cable (supplied) must be used for Web Interface access. As a reminder, you must verify the Ethernet port on your
laptop is powered. If your laptop is on battery power, the Ethernet port may be inactive by default. If this is the case simply plug in the
laptop to a 110vac source or change the power settings to enable the Ethernet port when the laptop is using battery power.
