Measuring the RF Signal Strength
The Receiver's RF signal Strength can be monitored during operation
via a DC RF signal-strength monitor. Maintenance personnel can
perform a simple verification process.
To measure the RF signal strength:
Using a Digital Volt meter, measure the voltage at the connector
pin#4 (both Rackmount and Standalone).

Aligning the Fiber Optic Link
The final step in installing the 7226H Interfacility Link is
re-adjusting the Receiver Gain Control for unity gain.
To set the unity gain (standard version) 6
1. Connect the combiner to the input of the transmitter.
2. Set the Signal Generator 1 to -8 dBm on the Spectrum Analyzer
at 1500 MHz.
3. Repeat for the Signal Generator 2 at 1510 MHz.
4. Set up the system as shown in
5. Set the Transmitter Gain Control for 3
level of -50 dBc at the Receiver output.
6. Adjust the Receiver Gain Control for unity gain.
