-4-The general safety information in this guideline applies to both operating and service personnel. Specifi 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 specifi 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 fi re, do not operate this product in the presence of fl 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 maxi-mum permissible limit as defi ned by section 1.1310 i.e. limits for General Population/Uncontrolled Exposure.Document Purpose / Intended UsersSafety GuidelinesImportant Safety Information Product Registration InformationDISCLAIMER: All information and statements contained herein are accurate to the best of the knowledge of Cellular Specialties, Inc.

-5-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 suffi 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 specifi 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.3GPP2 The standards body comprised of representatives of interested companies that is responsible for the development and maintenance of the operational standards for the CDMA2000 system.

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 identifi 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 identifi ed by the offset in time from the EST at which the start of the Pilot PN Sequence occurs. The offset is specifi 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. RF Radio FrequencySBC Single Board ComputerTau 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 antennaUSB Universal Serial Bus Acronyms and Defi nitions Product Introduction

-11-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, 1 DB-9 serial, and 2 USB). The Ethernet, CAT-5 port is provided as a primary communications port to the PC. One serial inter-face, COM 1, can provide communications to local PC. The USB interface provides a means to download fi les from a memory device. The DB-9 pin assignments of COM 1 conform to the standard Electronic Industries Association (EIA232) specifi cation. A diagram of the pin descriptions is provided on the next page for reference.Connecting a null modem cable to the COM 1 port and using a terminal emulation program with a PC will allow communication to the control processor’s Text Menu Interface (TMI) for trouble shooting and advanced diagnostics. Call CSI technical support for assistance if you need to access these advanced features or for further information.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 fi elds that exceed FCC limits for human exposure.WARNING! PILOT BEACON AND/OR HANDSET DAMAGE MAY OCCUR IF A HANDSET IS CONNECTED DIRECTLY TO THE PILOT BEACON OR THE COAX THAT LEADS TO THE PILOT BEACON.

-12-Primary access to the unit is gained using a LAN connection and a web browser program such as Firefox by Mozilla, or Internet Explorer from Microsoft. The beacon ships with the default IP address of 192.168.1.100, but it can be changed later if required. Connecting directly to the unit from a laptop or PC with a crossed CAT-5E cable or over a LAN the user types the IP address of the unit into the browser address line to connect. 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 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. 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. °See below for detail with regard to cables and connect-ing to your PC.

Text Menu InterfaceFigure 1Figure 2Local access to the repeater Text Menu Interface, also known as the TMI or console interface, is made by connecting a Female to Female serial cable, (not supplied with the repeater or this software update), as shown in fi gure 1, from the serial connector of the laptop to either of the serial ports on the bottom end panel of the repeater. These connectors are labeled COM 1 and COM 2. In some cases, a gender adapter may be needed if the computer serial port or cable connectors are not the same as shown in fi gure 1. Figure 2 shows a connector gender adapter. In some cases when a newer laptop is used that does not have a serial port, a USB serial adapter may be re-quired. A Tripp-Lite, model: USA-19HS is recommended. The USB media you’ve used for this upgrade should be inserted in an available USB port before starting the upgrade process. Local Access-23-
Pressing “OK” will open up a blank dialog screen. Go to the setup dropdown menu and select Serial port to make changes to the serial port setup.Confi gure the terminal program for the correct COM port, in this case COM 1 and 115200 baud rate as shown below.Many terminal emulation programs will work if properly confi gured. In the following description, “TeraTerm” is used to establish the TMI session. This program is readily available via the Internet and is free from Ayera Technologies at: http://www.ayera.com/teraterm/TeraTerm Pro Web works on Windows 95/98, 2000, XP. Here is the latest TeraTerm Pro Web release: Version 3.1.3, October 8, 2002. ttpro313.zipWhen the program is started, the following screen is displayed.Select the Serial radio button and press OK as shown below.Note: It may be necessary, in the System Properties section of the control panel; using DeviceManager to determine what COM port your computer uses for the communications port. In this case it is COM 1. This is not to be con-fused with the serial port on the bottom panel of the repeater labeled COM 1.-24-

Remote access to the repeater may be gained through a LAN connection and a terminal emulation program for TCP/IP. As with the se-rial connection, many terminal emulation programs will work, if properly confi gured. In the following description, “TeraTerm” is used to establish the Telnet session. Also, it will be required that the network confi guration of the computer and the repeater being controlled 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 repeater must use the same group of IP address number sets. For example, the repeater 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 repeater. In this example note: the last digit of the IP address may be any number except 1,100 and 255. Confi 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 repeater 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 display the security alert shown below. Click the yes button and the fi rst SSH2 Authentication Challenge screen is displayed. The user then types the username in the space provided. In multi beacon units, each set of beacons are changed independently and requires an independent login. To make changes default user names are “bandone” for the fi rst two beacons and “bandtwo” for the second two beacons respectively .-27-
In the fi eld provided, type the user name for the beacon to be changed. The default password is “csi1234” for all beacons. After typing the password press OK and the main menu will be displayed as shown next.Press OK after entering the user name and the second SSH2 Authentication Challenge will be displayed.-27-

Key Features Multiple Beacon Confi gurationEach unit contains four independent beacons. These can be all in the same band or two of one band and two of another. Detected RF Power ShutdownThe product contains an RF power detector for each transmitter that can be used to sense the power being transmitted by the DAS. Loss of the DAS requires that the beacon be shut down in order to provide some possibility for mobile devices to connect to the low level signal of the macro network.The shutdown threshold is set by the user. When the detected power falls below the set threshold the transmit power of all beacons is shut down and an alarm is issued. When the power rises above the threshold the beacons are turned back on. Timing Reference SourceA GPS derived timing reference is always required for the proper operation of the Co-co-pilot beacon. That timing reference can be provided by one of the following: • An optional internal GPS receiver • An optional internal CDMA timing receiver • The CSI supplied external CDMA Timing Reference Receiver • The CSI supplied external precision GPS Timing Reference (Spectrum Instruments TM-4) • Any user-supplied GPS Receiver capable of providing a TTL compatible even second tick aligned to GPS (not UTC) time. Control Parameter Details Master ShutdownThe Master Shutdown shuts down the transmissions from all beacons in the product. Timing Reference SelectionThere are three alternatives for the timing reference source and all beacons in the product use the same reference. • Internal GPS • Internal CDMA • External Even Second SyncThe choices that are available will depend on the product type as follows: -MX- “External” only -MG- “External” and “Internal GPS” -MO- “External” and “Internal CDMAThe default choice will also depend on the product type as follows: -MX- “External” -MG- “Internal GPS” -MO- “Internal CDMASelecting “Internal GPS” enables the use of the internal GPS receiver. An appropriate antenna with a clear view of the sky must be connected to the “Timing In” connector of the Co-pilot beacon. This choice is only available if the unit includes the optional GPS timing reference.Selecting “Internal CDMA” enables the use of the internal CDMA receiver. Either an appropriate antenna, or a cable carrying a valid CDMA Base Station signal, must be connected to the “Timing In” connector of the Co-pilot beacon. This choice is only available if the unit includes the optional CDMA timing reference.Selecting “External Even Second” enables the use of a TTL compatible even second pulse via the “EST In” connector of the Co-Co-pilot beacon. The rising edge of the pulse is used as the time reference and must be aligned with the start of the even second of GPS (not UTC) Time.The even second tick provided by the selected Timing Reference will appear on the “EST Out” connector.-34-
Each co-pilot beacon can transmit up to eleven simultaneous CDMA2000 signals. The carrier frequency for each signal is set by entering the desired CDMA channel number for that signal.Thus, there are eleven Channel Number fi elds, one for each of the possible signals.The CDMA channel number is a unit less integer valueThe range is 1 to 799 and then 991 to 1023 for cell band, 1 to 1199 for PCS band, and 25 to 875 for AWS band. Duplicate channel num-bers are not allowed.The default values for a Cell Band beacon are: The default values for a PCS Band beacon are: Signal 1: CDMA Channel 1005 Signal 1: CDMA Channel 1 Signal 2: CDMA Channel 1 Signal 2: CDMA Channel 120 Signal 3: CDMA Channel 89 Signal 3: CDMA Channel 239 Signal 4: CDMA Channel 177 Signal 4: CDMA Channel 358 Signal 5: CDMA Channel 265 Signal 5: CDMA Channel 477 Signal 6: CDMA Channel 353 Signal 6: CDMA Channel 596 Signal 7: CDMA Channel 441 Signal 7: CDMA Channel 715 Signal 8: CDMA Channel 529 Signal 8: CDMA Channel 834 Signal 9: CDMA Channel 617 Signal 9: CDMA Channel 953 Signal 10: CDMA Channel 705 Signal 10: CDMA Channel 1072 Signal 11: CDMA Channel 793 Signal 11: CDMA Channel 1192The default values for a AWS Band beacon are: Channel to frequency formulas are shown below: Signal 1: CDMA Channel 25 Cell Channels 1-799 - .03 x (Ch# + 870) = (Frequency)MHz. Signal 2: CDMA Channel 110 Signal 3: CDMA Channel 195 Cell Channels 991-1023 - .03 x (Ch# - 1023)+870 = (Frequency)MHz.

PN OffsetEach beacon has its own PN Offset. The PN Offset is a unitless integer value with a range of 0 to 511. The default value is zero. Tau (Delay Correction)There is a single Tau value for each beacon in a given product unit. Tau is a real value in units of microseconds with a range of -166.7 to +166.7 μsec and one decimal place of precision. Internally the value will be rounded to the nearest 1/40th of a CDMA chip. Co-pilot beacon Per Channel Transmit PowerThis setting controls the CDMA Channel Power output by a given Co-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 specifi ed maximum transmit power for the Co-pilot beacon.The Output Power is specifi ed in dBm with a range of 0.0 to 20.0 and a resolution of 0.5. Composite Transmit PowerComposite output power is a display only fi eld. The value is calculated from the Per Channel Tx Power and the number of channels that are enabled. Manual Shutdown Manual Shutdown allows the user to shut down transmission from the given beacon Auto Shutdown EnableThe detected power shutdown feature can be enabled or disabled. Auto Shutdown ThresholdThe shutdown threshold is entered in units of dBm.The allowable range is -26 to +4 dBm Detected PowerDetected power is a display only fi eld that displays the current reading of the power detector for the given beacon. The measured power is displayed in units of dBm and has a range of -30 to +10.-36-
