4.5.4.1 DECT
CONFIGURATION
The DECT function for each RFP can be switched on/off. If the DECT function is active, the RFP
can be added to a cluster.
4.5.4.2 STATUS OF AN RFP
For each RFP, the status of the DECT subsystem is displayed. The statuses are:
Synchronous
The RFP is up and running. The RFP recognizes and is recognized by other RFPs in its
cluster through its air interface and delivers a synchronous clock signal to the PPs.
Asynchronous but active
The RFP is not yet able to synchronize with its neighbours. No DECT communication is
possible. However, the RFP has already been able to connect to the OMM. This phase
should usually last only for a few seconds after starting up the RFP or the OMM. If this
status lasts longer, this is a sign of hardware or network failure.
Searching
The RFP is no longer synchronized with its neighbours. No DECT communication is
possible. This phase should usually last only for a few seconds after starting up the RFP or
the OMM. If this status lasts longer or is repeated after a synchronous status, this indicates
a bad RFP location
.
Inactive
The RFP has connected to the OMM but the air interface has not been switched on yet
.
For
any RFP with activated DECT function, this phase should last only for a few seconds after
starting up the RFP. If this state lasts longer, this may be a sign of hardware failure
.
Not connected
The RFP has been configured but has not connected to the OMM yet. Therefore, the IP
address column is empty
.
