6 RU SSPA Chassis Operations Manual
2.3.6.4 Status
Allows user to select between HPA1, HPA2 and HPA3. In 1:1 and 1:2 redundant sys-
tems, HPA2 is typically the standby amplifier.
2.3.6.5 Priority
For use in 1:2 redundant systems. Allows the user to select Polarity 1 or Polarity 2. If
the online amplifiers for Polarity 1 and Polarity 2 simultaneously enter a faulted state,
the standby amplifier will switch to the selected polarity.
2.3.6.6 N+1 System Operation Parameters
Under this set of menus, the user may select or adjust important N+1 options.
2.3.6.6.1 N+1 Array Size
This menu sets the type of N+1 system or disables N+1 operation for this unit. Choices
include the following: Disable N+1; System of 2 units; System of 4 units; System of 8
units; or System of 16 units. A single 5RU chassis in N+1 operation utilizes a system of
2 units.
Units connected to a N+1 system must have an identical N+1 array selection or have
N+1 operation disabled. A unit connected to a N+1 link cable with the N+1 option disa-
bled will not be controlled by a N+1 Master. To the Master unit, it will appear as a fault-
ed chassis.
2.3.6.6.2 N+1 Address
This option allows the selection of the unit’s N+1 priority address. All units in a N+1
array must be unique and with a contiguous N+1 address.
The unit with the lowest N+1 address has the highest priority when the system selects
a new Master unit in the event of the failure of the assigned Master unit. A unit with Ad-
dress 1 will be the default Master unit. If Unit 1 fails, Unit 2 will take its place as the
Master unit.
2.3.6.6.3 Auto Gain Control
This option allows the user to enable or disable the N+1 Automatic Gain options.
•
1.AutoGain 5dB

matically back off from maximum linear gain and reserve 5 dB of attenua-
tor range for gain compensation. When this option is enabled, the N+1
Master unit default System Information page will display: AutoGain
(dB):XX.X
