Select the Alarm tab and review the Active Alarm Manager for any active alarms. 

If the Alarm Log is empty, the system may still be loading (it takes approximately 3 minutes 
for the system startup to complete). Any RF shelf alarms remaining after startup may be 
ignored for now. For more information, refer to section 7.2.2 System Manager Alarms.  

 

Set the output power of the first BR according to site requirements. 

Connect the General Dynamics R2660 Series Communication System Analyzer to the top of 
the rack Tx OUT 1. Then set up the R2660 for iDEN Base mode. Enter the control channel 
frequency for sector 1, and then measure the output power of that frequency.  

For specifications, refer to section 2.5.9.2 Transmitter Performance Summary. The default is 
+0 dBm per carrier, assuming that the datafill parameter defaultTxPower is set to 9.0. Either 
adjust the datafill parameter (refer to section 6.3.6 defaultTxPower = 9.0.) or adjust the Tx 
ATTENUATION knob on the front of the RF shelf. The outside knob adjusts in 10 dB 
increments and the inside knob adjusts in 1 dB increments, up to 50 dB maximum. 

NOTE:  The default output power is displayed on the front of each RF shelf.  

Measure the SQE and frequency error for the control channel to see if they are within 
specifications.  

Verify that all BRs have the same output power
