INTRODUCTION AND OPERATION

1-5

March 1999

Part No. 001-2009-600

1.13 REPEATER OPERATION

1.13.1 MAIN PROCESSOR CARD (MPC)

Refer to Figure 1-2.

Programming Jack

J1 provides input connection from the computer

and the "flash memory" in the MPC. The program-
ming information in an IBM

PC programs the MPC

directly from the serial card through an interconnect
cable to the COM1 or COM2 port.

Reset

S1 provides a manual reset of the Main Processor

Card (MPC). A manual reset causes a complete
power-up restart.

Display and LEDs

Each combination of DS1 display read-out and

CR4/CR3 indication refers to an active alarm. See
Table 1-2 for alarms and definitions. LED indications:

CR1 blinking; MPC is operational, CR2 on; high
power, off is low power and CR5 on; indicates an LTR
Repeater.

1.13.2 TEST MODE

When the Repeater is in Test mode the safety

measures are disabled. Therefore, if the Repeater is
keyed for an extended period and the power amplifier
temperature increase, thermal shutdown will not occur.
There are pop-up windows that appear in the Test
mode screens to alert the user that there is an alarm
and action should be taken.
