Installation
The 4380A provides a number of features which may require additional setup and this section provides a
guideline for the basic setup. After completing this section, the 4380A will produce timing outputs to the
coarse calibration accuracies specified in Appendix A. The 4380A is designed to be quickly and easily
integrated with other system components. Just a few steps are required in setting up the system so that it
will begin producing accurate timing outputs. In order to set the system up, users will need to power up the
system and set up communications in order to have access to the system command port.
2.1 Powering on the 4380A
Apply power to the system by supplying input power to at least one of the two power supplies. When
power is applied to the 4380A the front panel will go through a self test and then the 4380A will begin
booting up.
Note:
If power is applied to both power supplies, the Status Indicator on the front panel of both power
supplies should be green. If power is applied to only one of the two supplies, then the power supply
without input power should have a red Status Indicator and the units Alarm Indicator should be red.
Note:
The 4380A front panel Power-On Self Test (POST) will occur even if the software flash has been
removed from the unit.
A.
The Date/Time display will sequentially test each segment on each individual position within the
display.
B.
One at a time, each position of the display will display the number 8 starting from the far left and
working to the right.
C.
Each LED below the Date/Time Display (Alarm, Sync, & Output) will be turned on one at a time
starting from the left to right. As each LED is tested it will be green, then red, and then turn off
with the exception of the Sync indicator, this indicator will turn red, then green, then off.
D.
The Date/Time display will then display “-9876543210” on the front panel.
E.
Lastly the Date/Time display will have a “-” in the center of each position in the display.
F.
When the unit starts the application, the Alarm and Sync lights will turn RED. The Outputs
indicator will remain red until NTP is locked and the outputs are turned on.
CAUTION
The default antenna supply voltage is
ZERO
. If the antenna requires power from the 4380A to
operate, the system will stay in this mode until the antenna is properly configured. This prevents
the system from potentially damaging any antennas until the antenna supply voltage is set properly
by the end user.
L’alimentation de l’antenne par défaut est égale à zéro. Si l’antenne nécessite une puissance de la
4380A à fonctionner, le système restera dans ce mode jusqu'à ce que l’antenne est correctement
configuré. Cela empêche le système de potentiellement endommager toute antenne jusqu'à ce que
la tension d’alimentation antenne est correctement définie par l’utilisateur final.
