34threshold that can be exceeded for short periods (up to 1 minute each time).If this condition occurs, it is enabled “PSU current derating” (“013” alarm and possibly “014”) and ALC management algorithm to normal operating condition is replaced by another in which the VDS and Bias control is given by power setting and, with even higher priority, by the current supplied from power supply.The condition of current derating is turned off when the power supplied back to the va-lue set by the user and if the maximum current supplied from power supply is less than or equal to the maximum allowable value for continuous operation.Thermal management on power supply (Lifextender ®) The algorithm of power supply management, function of temperature, is the same as that in the RF group, and is connected logically “OR” to it.The first level of Derating (which acts directly on the output power) is activated when the power supply temperature exceeds 75 ° C, while the second level is activated if, with the first ineffective, the temperature is not stable below this value. In this second case the output power is brought below the - 3 dB, with the same procedure already described in RF section. On the display the activation of this mechanism is manifested by the “010” alarm, and possibly “016”.Fault management on RF modules (Lifextender ®) It makes the maximum output power management depending on the number of RF amplifier modules being properly operated.If one or more MOSFETs are considered failed (this happens when the current consum-ption is less than 10% of the average), RF output power is reduced to the expected value in the presence of failure experienced. The failure case histories and maximum power achievable are described in a complex table obtained through experimentation, and are designed to stop MOSFETs failure, that are still operating, by avoiding that are overly stressed by the mechanism of ALC (which would call these to supply the power output missing).To avoid an unnecessarily large number of alert SMS, during this stage are not sent: any alert SMS, if validated, will be sent only after the output power adaptation procedure, according to the parameters table, and only if -3dB condition is verified.On the display the activation of this mechanism is manifested by the “008” and “009” alarm.Cooling Management on fans group (Lifextender ®) The fan speed is adjusted, depending on the actual cooling needs, from a minimum of 60% to a maximum of 120% (these values may differ by different models of fan used). The cooling need is estimated on the basis of accurate temperature measurements that are made on RF MOSFETs and on power supply. The Cooling Management aims to extend the lifespan of the fans, to minimize the amount of dust that can be carried by the airflow, and to guarantee a safe operation of the apparatus, even under extreme conditions of temperature.Without Lifextender the fans operate at 100%.2.3.2 Hardware protectionsThe hardware protection system includes:•  fast electronic and fuse protection on power supplies;•  fast electronic protection on fans power supply ;•  fast protection against excessive reflected power (ROS/VSWR), caused by a strong mismatch of the load. This protection occurs when the value of reflected power exceeds 10% of the direct power.Product description

These are indi-cated by code, description, date and time.1.1.7 Alarms listDisplay only screen.It is possible to monitor the list of most recent alarms. The alarms indicated by the let-ter “A” are still active.In order to understand the meaning of the alarms, please refer to paragraph “Alarms/events list”. 1.1.6 Baseband levelsSetting and display screen.There are levels of the audio signal.The display changes depending on the audio mode selected.
11User interface1.1.10 Password settingThere are two levels of user privilege: USER and SYSTEM, which are both initially protec-ted by the default password “0000”.In this screen it is possible to define customized passwords by the user with “SYSTEM” privileges.Other parameters that can be set from this menu are the machine addresses (reference for communication with it).1.1.9 PasswordThe equipment is delivered with the default password “0000” that can be customized by the user (for more details, please see paragraph “Password Setting”).In this screen the access password must be entered.1.1.11 Password recoveryIf you lose your password, please contact Elenos.Elenos must be given the “Unlock code” in this screen.Elenos will provide a password valid for 24 hours to be entered on the same screen under the “Password Recovery” item.The user must later define new passwords through the “Password Setting” screen.
12 User interface1.1.12.1 Power oscillation algorithmIn Elenos devices, if there is a power variation of “n” W (“n” being defined in specific tables) at least 3 consecutive times within 15 seconds, the “035” alarm is activated and the three block out mechanism is triggered (if this mechanism fails, the “003” alarm is then activated). 1.1.12.2 Foldback algorithmThe Elenos devices feature two different and independent protections which are activa-ted when there is an excess of reflected power.The first is a hardware threshold which operates when the reflected power exceeds 10% of the maximum rated output power of the transmitter in a very short space of time.In these conditions the transmitter switches off.The second is a software protection, called “foldback algorithm”.It is activated when the reflected power increase is slower (for example, when there is snow or ice on the antenna).In these conditions, the transmitter gradually reduces its output power until the reflec-ted power threshold is exceeded, while the output power is gradually restored when the values go back to normal.If normal operating conditions continue for more than 60 seconds, the algorithm is inactive.The activation of this second protection is left to the user (from theSystem config screen).1.1.12 System configSetting and display screen.The following parameters can be set by the user: temperature measurement unit (Temp. U.), remote display operating mode (Show D.), audio board model (BB model, automatically detected, or STEREO view as default), equipment protection in case of oscillations (PwOscChk), power target when working with a UPS (UPS T), VCO synchroni-zation (Time base, internal or externalat 10MHz), power reading calibration (FwdPwrCal), SWR foldback, polarization threshold (IPA Bias Tres.), reflected power nominal threshold (Refl.Pwr T.N., when active it is 10% of direct power), reflected power customized threshold (Refl.Pwr T.Lev., when  the nominal threshold is inactive, it is possible to set values below10%), final polarization (PAbias), maximum settable power full scale (Max Target Pwr).
13User interface1.1.13 Audio trim & alrmSetting and display screen.The following parameters can be set by the user: pilot tone level, pilot tone phase, clipping voltage.It is possible to monitor the audio board model (BB board model, automaticallydetected, or STEREO view as default) and the firmware version of the audio board (BB Firmware).The alarms connected to the audio section are set. The management uses the TC/TS connector.The alarm is activated when it is below the threshold set (Modulation), after the set period of time (Dlay Alarm Timer).The user can choose from five operating modes (Bad mod.) : DISABLE, NO AUDIO, SWAP, FAULT, FLT/SWAP.1.1.13.1 Audio “Disable” alarm By setting the “Bad mod.” field to “DISABLE”, the alarm is completely deactivated wi-thout needing to change the levels (Modulation, Dlay Alarm Timer).1.1.13.2 “No audio” audio alarm By setting the “Bad mod.” field to “NO AUDIO”, the default setting is kept, i.e. “No Au-dio” on pin 23 of the TC/TS connector.If the transmitter is inside an N+1 system, the “No Audio” signal is not available at the exchange unit.1.1.13.3 “Swap” audio alarm By setting the “Bad mod.” field to “SWAP”, the “No Audio” line (pin 23) is exchanged with the “Warning” line (pin 13) on the TC/TS connector.If the transmitter is inside an N+1 system, the “No Audio” signal is available at the exchange unit.1.1.13.4 “Fault” audio alarm By setting the “Bad mod.” field to “FAULT”, the “No Audio” line (pin 23) is in “or” condi-tion with the “Fault” line (pin 24) on the TC/TS connector.If the transmitter is inside an N+1 system, the exchange unit activates the switching in the presence of No Audio. 1.1.13.5 “Flt/Swap” audio alarm By setting the “Bad mod.” field to “FLT/SWAP”, there is a combination of the two“Swap” and “Fault” modes. In this way, if the transmitter is inside an N+1 system, the “No Audio” signal is available at the exchange unit and the exchange unit actives the switching.
14 User interface1.1.15 System infoSetting and display screen.The equipment software version, the protocol version, the equipment activity time and the fan operating time are indicated.It is possible to reset the latter by clicking “R”. 1.1.14 Communication port setSetting and display screen.The parameters which can be set by the user are the speed and the front and rear 485 door addresses.1.1.16 System TimeSetting and display screen.The following parameters can be set by the user: the day of the week, date and time.
15User interface1.1.17 Clock Pwr TargetSetting and display screen.As well as the standard power adjustment, it can also be set according to time slots in order to save energy. In order to be able to set the power according to individual time slots, the field “Target Power Mode” must be set to “CLOCKED”.Then, the various times of day can be matched with four different power percentage values (100%, 75%, 50% or 25% of the set power).After defining the day of the week to be set (Target Power on day of) for each time of day, press the cursor to enter the setting bar, rotate it to define the percentage (nothing displayed corresponds to 25%, T1 corresponds to 50%, T2 corresponds to 75%, T3 corre-sponds to 100%) and press the cursor to confirm.By setting the “Copy over next day” field to “T”, the previous day setting is copied to the next day.By setting the “Reset at default” field to “T”, the settings are reset to default, where the power is low at night and full during the day.
16 User interface1.1.18 Enable Alarms SmsSetting and display screen.Besides the alarm management “by status”, it is possible to havealarm management “by event”.The alarms for which this management mode is enabled merge in a buffer.If the value “0” is attributed to the relative alarm, it means that is deactivated, while the value “1” means that is activated to be managed in “by event” mode.This function is available only by means of connection on the Omron protocol.In order to understand the meaning of the alarms, please refer to paragraph “Alarms/events list”.1.1.19 User Alarms DataSetting and display screen.Some alarms can be set according to activation conditions.The current value of the alarm condition parameter (ambient temperature, RF tempera-ture, RF current, power supply temperature, power supply current, direct power, reflec-ted power) can be monitored.By setting the “En.” parameter to “T/F” the respective alarm is enabled/disabled.The following parameters can be set by the user: the parameter minimum and maxi-mum values, and the type of condition to be met (upper, lower, inside, outside).
17User interface1.1.20 User Alarms TimersSetting and display screen.In some alarms, it is possible to set a time frame in which the condition must occur in order to make the alarm effective (“Dlay”).The trend of the meter for this time can be monitored as well as the possible enabling of the alarm by means of a status flag (Alrm).
18 User interface1.1.21 LifextenderSetting and display screen.The parameters relative to the Lifextender option can be monitored: equipment serial number, equipment code (parameter to be notified to Elenos should the user require the activation/deactivation of this function), activation/deactivation code (parameter supplied by Elenos to be entered for the function activation/deactivation), function sta-tus, work days in good operating conditions, work days in critical operating conditions.The algorithm considers the following parameters to define the critical days: RF tem-perature, power supply temperature, ambient temperature and reflected power with respect to maximum operating power.These parameters must exceed the threshold values for a certain amount of time.In this way, the duration and intensity of the event is assessed: intense short events are heavy; less intense but longer events are heavy too.
19User interface1.1.22 GSM and modem serviceSetting and display screen.The GSM signal field intensity can be monitored.It is possible to enable the submission of an alarm by SMS and/or PSTN in case of no mains power (No Mains SMS) for the period of time set (Delay).It is possible to enable the submission of an alarm by SMS and/or PSTN if the power delivered is at least 3dB less than the target set (SMS FWD over 2/3).The codes to be displayed in the different message strings can be defined (PagerId, StatId, String Id).1.1.23 Phone N.1 to N.8Setting and display screen.The equipment can “communicate” with up to 8 SIM cards.The telephone numbers and authorizations can be defined in international formatThe number can be globally enabled for SMS transmission and reception SMS (En.), be enabled to send commands (Cmd), be enabled to request and receive the machine sta-tus (Sts), be enabled to receive the echo any of commands sent by other numbers (Glb) and be enabled to receive SMSs in text or digital format (PC.).
