         WARNING:  This is NOT a CONSUMER device.  It is designed for installation by FCC LICENSEES AND QUALIFIED INSTALLERS.  You MUST have an  FCC LICENSE or express consent of an  FCC Licensee to operate this device.  Unauthorized use may  result  in significant forfeiture penalties, including penalties in excess of $100,000 for each continuing violation.    The Installation height of the antenna for AWS band 1700/2100 MHz operations is limited to 10 meters above ground for compliance with FCC Regulation Section 27.50            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 -2 dBi, or any combination of gain and loss that equates to -2 dBi at output.  Each  antenna must  be positioned to observe minimum separation requirements from all users and bystand- ers.  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 -2 dBi is used, precautions should be  taken  to prevent personnel from routinely passing closer  than specified.         Radio  and Television Interference  NOTE: This equipment has been tested and  found  to comply  with the  limits for a Class A digital device,  pursuant to Part  15 of the FCC  rules.

  Installation  Power Up Section 2 To  power  up  the  CSI repeater simply connect the  72  VDC power  cable from the  train to the  DC IN port  on  the  Power  Module.    When powered  up,  the repeater will begin in the Operational Mode,  using  the “Band Switching  Algorithm”. The repeater will not key until boot up is complete, a  GPS  location  fix is obtained and  the unit is within an ” Area  Definition”. Normal Operation After boot  up and  a GPS  position  fix is obtain the repeater will begin operation based on the Area  Definitions, “Channel Power  Measure- ment  and  Keying Decision”  and  “Low Isolation Detection and  Protection”  algorithms. The operational software will continuously monitor the repeater’s environment and  make  the necessary adjustments to keep  the  product  operating within specifications and  FCC Type Certification.  System Status The Software provides real  time status data  reporting  the state of the repeater.  This status contains: System Info: Location Model Board Type Carrier SW Version Serial Number Item Number Date Built Watchdog Timer CPLD Version  Software Build  Information: Builder URL Revision Compile Date Local Area  network: Hostname Boot Protocol IP Address MAC Address Wide  Area  network: Remote Enabled Modem Type IP Address SNMP Configuration: Enabled Read-only  User Read-write  User Read-only User Read-only Community Read-write Community Traps/Informs Heartbeat Modem Status: Connected GPS  Location Data: Run State Latitude Longitude PCS  Filter ID Location BTA Satellite Count No Box Count Searching Count     RF Alarms: Over Range Oscillation VSWR Out if Band Overdrive Low Signal No Signal Scan Receiver: Run State Dekey Limit Filter ID Channels Channel-1 Channel-2 Channel-3 Channel-4 Channel-5       System Alarms: Synthesizer Voltage Temperature Software Hardware   Alarms The Operating Software will monitor  the repeater for conditions that  are  out of normal operation, triggering  an  alarm  event.   The Operat- ing software in conjunction with the Communications Subsystem when  so configured will send alarm messages via E-mail or SMS texting to a  User Provisioned account.  Each  Alarm has  these User Provisioned Capabilities.:  ·  Disable the System: The Operating software can disable the System (prohibit Keying) until the alarm condition is cleared if provisioned · 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 or SMS  through  the Communi- cations Subsystem if provisioned. · Alarm Clear Message: The Operating Software can send an alarm clear message when  an alarm condition clears if provi- sioned.  Alarm  Notification Message The  alarm messages consists of the Systems Identification Tag,  a summary of the  current  alarms, and  a short English message  describ- ing the  alarm condition(s). Below is a list of the alarms that will trigger  an  alarm message to be sent.:  Downlink Over  Range Downlink High Temperature Scan Receiver Low Uncalibration Uplink  Over  Range Downlink Low Temperature Scan Receiver High AGC Disabled Synthesizer Error Uplink  High VSWR No  GPS  Data Property File Error DAC Error Uplink  Low VSWR No  GPS  Lock DAS Failure DC Current High Uplink  Filter  Load No  GPS  Fix Watchdog Timer DC Current Low Uplink  Over  Current GPS  Antenna Current Modem Not Responding Downlink High  VSWR Uplink  Under Current GPS  Fix Filter  Not Present User Login Downlink Low  VSWR Oscillation Chassis Overheat Password Changed Downlink Filter  Load Uplink  High Temperature Chassis Under Temp CPU Boot Downlink Over  Current Uplink  Low Temperature Software Abort Placed in Disabled Condition Downlink Under Current Fan  Failure Software Error In Maintenance Mode Powerup and System Check Out Procedures - 10 -
   Hardware Operations       Test Point Locations and Values Section  3    The  CSI  repeater,  CS12-560-419, by design, has no  external  test  points. The  module  is  sealed  with  no  user serviceable  parts inside. Testing and  configuration is done  exclusively by interfacing the repeater with a laptop or desktop computer and  using  Text Menu Interface (TMI). This user interface 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 cover  for module  is 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 Module face  plate.  The  first LED labeled STATUS 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 prob- lem and  the  user  will need to check  the system status using  the TMI.  The second LED is also located on  the faceplate of the  Module,  and  is labeled POWER.  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).         -11 -

 Section  4   Software Operations Local Communication Interface Ports To allow monitoring and control, the repeater is equipped with two ports that  provide external communication access (1 Ethernet CAT-5, and  1 DB-9 serial).  The Ethernet, CAT-5 port is provided  as a primary communications port to the  PC.  One serial interface, COM, can provide communications to local PC.  The  DB-9 pin assignments of COM 1 conform  to the standard Electronic  Industries Association (EIA232) specification. A diagram of the pin descriptions is provided  below  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.       EIA232  Pin Specifications        The diagram above is for reference only, it’s intended to provide  a quick source for pinout  information  in the  event  it should  be neces- sary  to adapt your serial  cable  because of an unusual connector configuration.  In the  vast majority of cases this information will not be needed.    General  Operation  Overview -16 -
 Section  4  Software Operations  Ethernet  The Ethernet AUI conforms to IEEE 802.3  and  is capable of supporting 10/100  Mbps communications speeds.  This port is used to pro- vide access to the  UI.   Monitoring & Alarms  There  are  no physical  connections provided  to exclusively  and specifically communicate system or alarm status. Information with regard to system or alarm status is provided  by the  TMI accessible via the communication ports described earlier.     Text  Menu  Interface  Local Access  Local access to  the repeaters TMI, also  known as the console interface, is made by connecting a serial  cable  (optional),  as shown  in figure  1, from  the serial connector of the laptop to the serial port located on  the  top of the enclosure on the vertical surface facing the rear  and  near  the heatsink. This connector is not labeled and  is sealed with a special cover  to maintain  the  integrity of the enclosure. This cover  must  be reinstalled after  the  serial  port is used. In some cases, if the connector gender is not the same as shown  in figure  1, an adapter (optional) as shown  in figure  2 may also be required.

    Software Operations Section 4  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 configured.  In the following description, “TeraTerm” is used to establish the  TCP/IP session. Also, it will be required that  the  network configuration 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.   Configuring  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.  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 SSH.  The TCP  Port  must  be 22.         Click the  yes  button  and  the  first SSH2 Authentication Challenge screen is dis- played.  The  user  then  types  the username in the space  provided. To make  changes default  user  name is “bandone”  .

The “Local Network Configuration” pro- vides access to the  network connection that  is made to the system via the Ethernet port located on the  front panel of the  unit. The  “Remote  Network Configuration” is used to configure the  wireless modem(s) that  are attached to the USB port of the  SBC  (single  board  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 charac- teristics  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 ad- dress 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.  ---------------------- CAUTION:  Network reconfirmation may cause local and remote access interruptions.

  Software Operations  Section 4   The repeater’s operating software have  two modes, an Operational mode  and  a Maintenance mode.   These are de-  scribed 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  Measure- ment  and  Keying Decision”  and  “Low Isolation Detection and  Protection”  algorithms. The operational software will continu- ously  monitor  the system’s environment and  make  the necessary adjustments to keep  the  product  operating with specifica- tions  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 Modem  Band Type Satellite Count System Up Time Active Filer NoBox Count Software Version In-band input Searching Count System Serial Number Measured Output Scan RX Run State Model Number Composite Input DeKey Limit Item Number AGC Mode Scan RX Filter ID Location AGC Attenuation # of Channels Modem Signal Strength GPS  RunState 1 -10 Channel Freq’s & SSI Modem Registration Status Latitude  Modem Phone Number Longitude RF Alarms: System Alarms: Modem  Current  Band Filter ID Over Range Synthesizer Lock Modem System ID Filter Name Oscillation Voltage Modem  Network ID Location VSWR Temperature Modem Temperature BTA Out of Band Overdrive Software   Low Signal Hardware   No Signal   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 avail- able  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 at- tachment 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 mes- sages 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 Com- munications Subsystem if provisioned. -  Alarm  Clear Message:  The Operating Software can send an alarm clear message when  an alarm condition clears if provisioned.

   Software Operations Section 4   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.
