CTPhone 1900 System Hardware & Software Installation
6 Press the CTPhone Controller reset button. (For the location of the
reset button, see Figure 1-2 on page 1-13.)
The CTPhone Controller runs through a series of tests, performs a soft-
ware upgrade on the CTPhone Controller, and then attempts to perform a
software upgrade on the system base stations. If your system requires
UTAM activation, the base station upgrade will fail and you will see an
alarm in the Status Window which reports that UTAM activation is needed.
Activating the CTPhone System (United States only)
In the United States, an activation process is required to complete the
installation process:
• after a CTPhone system is first installed
• when a CTPhone system is moved to another location
The activation process complies with FCC Part 15 and UTAM rules for
Unlicensed Personal Communications Service (U-PCS) equipment in the
1920 - 1930 MHz band. FCC regulations prohibit movement of U-PCS
equipment without prior authorization from your manufacturer and UTAM.
To comply with FCC regulations, the CTPhone base stations will not trans-
mit after initial installation until the activation process is completed. In addi-
tion, base stations will cease transmitting if the CTPhone Controller is
powered down for more than four hours.
Activation Process
See the CTPhone Manager on-line help for information on the activation.
During the activation process, you’ll retrieve information from the CTPhone
Controller, call CTPhone Systems for an activation code, and send the
activation code to the CTPhone Controller.
Configuring Basic System Settings
This step is required to ensure proper uploading of the system software to
the base stations. To make this step very simple, do the following:
1 In the Wireless Manager tool bar, click .
2 In the Configure Window, double click System Settings.
The System Settings dialog box appears.
3 Configure each system setting; to simplify the process now, use the
recommended settings shown in Table 4-A on page 4-7. If your system
has two base stations, make sure to enter TRUE in for the Second BS
Service Enabled parameter.
