Multi-Channel Power Amplifier (MCPA)
During installation or expansion of a DualMode 800 Enclosure, you need to
set the output power of the Multi-Channel Power Amplifier (MCPA) to the
desired level of the cell/sector. You can use the MCPA software program (PEC
NTFC07BC), provided with the MCPA, to set the output power. This software
program comes in two floppy disks and it works with a computer (a PC or a
laptop) using Windows 95. To use the software for setting the MCPA output,
you need to:
1. install the software program on to your computer
2. run the program on the computer
3. if required, download the firmware for the MCPA shelf from the computer
to the shelf
Note: For new cell sites/MCPA shelves, the firmware is downloaded at
the factory. This step is required only if you are upgrading the firmware to
a newer version.
4. enter the per channel output power and the number of channels for the
MCPA shelf
5. initialize the power setting
Installing the MCPA software program
Use the following procedure to install the MCPA software program on to your
computer:
1. Place disk 1 of the software program into your computer.
2. Run the setup program and follow the on-screen prompts. The setup
program automatically sets up the ‘Nortel gain’ program in the Start
menu.
Running the MCPA software on the computer
To run the ‘Nortel gain’ program on the computer, use the following procedure:
1. Turn off the power to the computer and the MCPA shelf.
2. Connect from an available serial communications port on the computer,
using a null modem cable, to the RS232 connector (J6) on the backplane
of the MCPA shelf. Make sure that the connection is secure. The
following lists the pin-outs of the connectors:
