tape.Connect the port that is labeled “antenna” on
the sensor to your donor antenna and the port that
is labeled “transline” to the antenna feedline cable
coming from the signal booster.

All five of the alarms use “supervising” alarm cir-
cuits. A supervised circuit includes technology that
will detect open or shorted circuits regardless of
the alarm status. This is accomplished by using
EOL (end-of-line) resistors at the alarm terminal
strip in the signal booster cabinet. The value of the
EOL resistors is a function of the alarm panel so
you should consult the manual for the alarm panel
when you are determining the resistor value.

The booster provides Ethernet connectivity that
allows user interaction via a web based user inter-
face (GUI). Communications will require connect-
ing your laptop computer to the Enet connector
located on the bottom of the unit as shown in figure

4. A standard Ethernet crossover cable is used to
make the connection between your laptop com-
puter and the booster cabinet.

Once your laptop computer is properly connected
to the signal booster a system summary submenu
screen will be displayed as shown Figure 12. The
top banner of this submenu screen shows the cur-
rent software version, model number, and serial
number of the booster. The front door status LED is
shown as an icon to the right of the banner and will
be updated in real time.

On the left-hand side of the page are a list of the
major submenus available to the user including
System Status, RF Configuration, Notification Con-
figuration, Network Configuration, OLC History,
and User Administration. Place your cursor over a
particular submenu heading and left click to make
a selection. Each major submenu page contains a
group of related functions.

The center of the System Status submenu screen
is divided into three graphical boxes. Identical
boxes for the Uplink and downlink branches and a
smaller box for power subsystem status. The uplink
and downlink boxes have their passband displayed
on the top border of the box. Both RF Status values
and Power Amplifier status values are displayed in
a column format. The values displayed are updated
in real time. The OLC Engaged Percent is shown at
the bottom of the RF Status column as a bar graph
display. The light bar represents an average of
OLC gain reduction and ideally there should be lit-
tle or no light bar activity. OLC (output level control)
is meant to reduce gain for transient episodes of
very strong signals. However, when OLC is active,
gain is reduced for all signals being passed by that
