Installation Steps - Dekolink MW-CBDA-SMR-800-900-1W65 Installation And Operating Instructions Manual

Installation Steps

1. Install all antennas and connect them to the CBDA inputs.
2. Open the access windows at the sides of the CBDA so that the variable attenuator is reached
and the LED is visible.
3. Turn the AGC On. This AGC limits the output power of the CBDA. The AGC on the Downlink
path guarantees constant downlink power when and if the Donor power changes.
Warning: T
he AGC switch must be always ON in order to limit the spurious signals.
4. Set downlink gain to minimum; uplink gain to minimum ( by turning the gain control trimmer
clockwise).
5. Increase the downlink channel gain (by turning the gain control trimmer counterclockwise) till
the LED turns from off to on. This is the best gain setting giving highest usable power.
6. The LED on the downlink power amplifier will illuminate if adequate donor power has reached
the CBDA. If the donor power is low the LED will not lit and the CBDA usable power is not used
efficiently.
7. Set the uplink gain to the same as the downlink gain.
8. Check that the uplink LED on the CBDA monitor does not lit permanently. This LED would lit
permanently If the isolation between antennas is low (CBDA oscillations) or the CBDA is faulty.
9. If the uplink LED light permanently then:
•
Disconnect one of the cables from the CBDA connectors and connect a load at
the connectors.
•
If the LED on this amplifier illuminates permanently then the CBDA is faulty
(oscillating) and needs replacing.
•
If the LEDs stops illuminating then the isolation between the donor and remote
antennas is low. Either improve the isolation (e.g. increase separation) or
reduce CBDA gain.
•
To reduce gain, reconnect the antenna cables. Reduce the gain at both uplink
and downlink path until this LED stops illuminating. Reduce the gain further by
10 dB. This is the maximum usable gain.
