GLOSSARY

Antenna Mapping

Antenna Mapping is the process of re-configuring the PMU’s Antenna

 

Channel parameter through the use of an RS-232 CRT terminal (or PC

 

with terminal emulation software). This parameter tells the PMU which

 

antenna is used by each transmitter (actually, which Analog Input # is

 

connected to that antenna’s power sensor).

EDACS

Enhanced Digital Access Communications System

EDACS Interface Panel

An EDACS Interface Panel is a 19-inch wide panel mounted in the top

 

rear of each EDACS Repeater and Site Controller cabinet. The panels

 

are used as the connection point for all cables between adjacent

 

EDACS Repeater and Site Controller cabinets.

Power Sensor

The Power Sensor is the RF power-detecting device used by the PMU

 

to monitor the power at a specific point in the RF transmit path. The

 

power sensor may be unidirectional (senses power in one direction) or

 

bi-directional (senses power in both directions).

Power Sensor Module

The Power Sensor module is the name of the board used in the upper

 

EDACS Interface Panel of a Site Controller cabinet containing the

 

PMU option. Its sole function is to provide a connection point between

 

cables going to the PMU (inside the cabinet) and cables going to the

 

power sensors (outside the cabinet).

RS232 CRT Terminal

CRT terminal with RS232 interface that can be used to communicate

 

with and configure terminal-configurable software. Also includes PC

 

operating in the terminal mode with terminal emulation software.

SWR

The Standing Wave Ratio is the ratio of the amplitude of a standing

 

wave at an anti-node to the amplitude at a node.

VDT Interface

Both VDT Interfaces on the back of the PMU are RS232 ports with

 

default baud rates of 9600 BPS. The left-hand VDT Interface is used

 

for the connection to a programming terminal. The right-hand VDT

 

Interface is used for the connection to the Site Controller computer.
