DONOR AND SERVICE ANTENNAS Install, Cable and Aim the Donor Antennas Cel-Fi SOLO RED has two RF ports (N-type female) on the top of the housing. One port is to be connected to the outdoor donor antenna which is pointed at the High Site to receive 700/800 MHz LMR signals. The other port is to be connected to the service antennas providing in-building LMR service. Each of these ports is labeled. The RF connections must be made using cables with an impedance of 50 ohms. IMPORTANT: Use Cel-Fi donor antennas exclusively with SOLO RED. We can't guarantee optimal operation of the unit if a different antenna model is used. The approved donor antenna models from Cel-Fi are:

BEST - Cel-Fi LPDA-R Antenna (Model Number A62-V44-200) GOOD - Cel-Fi DIRECTIONAL-R Antenna (Model Number A32-V32-201) The LMR donor antenna is aimed towards the 700/800 MHz LMR High Site serving the address (GPS Lat/Long) as dictated by the AHJ or Radio Shop. Install and Cable the Service Antennas IMPORTANT NOTE: If you intend to use the systems build-in Uplink (talk-out) Grid Test feature with greater accuracy, the service antennas must also operate at 462.675 MHz (FRS Channel 20). SOLO RED hardware must remain in 2 Hour fire rated spaces and is coaxially cabled to service antennas throughout the areas to be covered. Details about service antenna installation and cabling go beyond the scope of this document, but the following rules must be observed:

1. Cables and antennas must be 50 ohms. 2. Donor and Service antennas must be rated to 2 watts minimum input power @ 50 ohms. 3. To prevent damage, the BDA should not be powered up unless the RF ports are terminated into 50 ohm loads or cables. 05. HARDWARE CABLING The wiring diagram below illustrates wiring for the entire system, including optional Remote Annunciator (RA) and Emergency Power Off (EPO) cables. WAN and RA Ethernet Cabling The BDA includes two RJ45 Ethernet cable ports to connect the BDA to the optional Remote Annunciator

(RA), and to connect the BDA to the WAVE Portal remote network management system in the cloud (WAN port). The WAN port connection is optional, but highly recommended and is intended to be permanent, as it enables remote monitoring and diagnostics. Please refer to Appendix F NMS (Portal) Firewall Settings for more information. Ethernet cables and RJ45 connectors are not supplied with the system. However, waterproof RJ45 inline connector assemblies are provided in order to waterproof the cable end connectors (see instructions below). Waterproof RJ45 Ethernet Connector Adapters Use a CAT5e or better cable (24 AWG minimum) to connect the WAN and RA to the BDA. Once the Ethernet cables are connected, follow the instructions below to waterproof the connections at either end of each cable. 1. Pass the cable thru the screw-on cap 2. Insert the cable into the split sleeve and washers 3. Push the screw-on cap and washers in the receptacle 4. Apply on the screw-on cap a maximum mating torque of 4.1 - 6.1 in-lbs. EPO Ethernet Cabling The optional EPO switch also uses an Ethernet cable to connect it to the BDA, however the EPO switch does not use Ethernet signaling. It is merely a wired relay connection. For the EPO switch end of the EPO cable, connect a standard RJ45 connector and waterproof the connector using the supplied RJ45 waterproof connector assembly, as illustrated in the previous section. For the BDA end of the EPO cable, hardwire the cable to the BDA as instructed below (this allows the use of 3rd party EPO switches, and the EPO OUT cable hole supports inch conduit if desired):

1. The EPO cable will pass into the housing and be secured with the supplied water-tight gland shown below. 2. Locate and remove the EPO OUT cable port plug on the bottom of the BDA housing. 3. Insert the threaded gland barrel into the housing hole from the outside of the BDA housing, and secure it internally with the locknut. The Pressure Fingers should be outside the housing. 4. Slide the Pressure Dome and Sealing Sleeve onto the cable, and feed the cable into the housing through the barrel about 18 inches. 5. Slide the Sealing Sleeve into the Pressure Fingers and secure with the Pressure Dome. 6. The barrel nut and Pressure Dome should be snug and the cable should not move. Do not over-tighten. 1. Route the EPO cable through the two cable clamps to the larger DC Terminal Block. 2. Strip inch of wire insulation from wires 7 and 8 (the brown and brown/white wires) and screw securely into the two small terminal block ports. 3. The unused cable wires should be cut back to the cable jacket and may be protected with electrical tape. They are unused and not connected on the EPO Switch end of the cable. Fire Alarm Control Panel Cabling Both the SOLO RED BDA and the optional Remote Annunciator use a Form-C cable to connect to the Fire Alarm Control Panel. The included Form-C 24-pin cable may be used with the RA or the BDA to send alarm signals to the building Fire Alarm Panel. The cable has three pins per alarm. The first one is a normal-close signal, the second one is a common signal, and the third is a normal-open signal. Choose the appropriate signal according to the type of fire alarm control panel in the building. 1. When not using an RA, connect the Form-C cable from the ALARMS OUT port on the BDA to the Fire Alarm Control Panel. 2. When using an RA, connect an Ethernet cable between the MASTER port on the RA and the RA port on the BDA, using waterproof RJ45 inline connectors. Then connect the Form-C cable from the ALARMS port on the RA to the Fire Alarm Control Panel. 3. Choose the appropriate pins (normal-open / common / normal-close) to set up the alarms in the Fire Alarm Control Panel. BBU to BDA Power and Alarm Connections DC power wires, alarm wires and conduit are not supplied with the system. Use inch water-tight conduit and fittings to route DC power and BBU alarm wiring to the BDA. These BBU alarms are for Loss of AC Power and Battery Charger Fail. All other alarms are triggered within the BDA. See the wiring diagram below for terminal block wire connections within the BDA and BBU. The minimum DC cable gauge is 12 AWG. The minimum alarm wire gauge is 24 AWG. Strip inch of wire insulation from the end of each wire to be connected. Insert each wire into the appropriate terminal block socket and tighten the set screw. A gentile pull on each wire should not cause it to separate from the terminal block socket. BBU Power Requirements:

All external circuits intended to be connected to non power-limited wire shall contain either current-limiting or overcurrent protection to prevent fault currents in excess of the current rating for the gauge wire size permitted by the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70, or as specified in the installation wiring diagram/instructions.

The Cel-Fi WAVE App is designed for end-users, installers, and channel partners to activate and manage the Cel-

Fi product line. The app connects to the system via Bluetooth and is available for smartphones and tablets. Follow these steps to configure your SOLO RED System:

1. Open the WAVE PRO app in the presence of the BDA. 2. The app will auto-connect if only one system is found, or you may select it from a list. 3. Select Configure System to run the configuration tool. 4. Select Download Packages (you may be asked to log into the portal). 5. Select the desired Installation Package from the list and click Sync Packages to load them into the app. 6. Select Install & Calibrate System. Your system is now ready to provide Public Safety service. 7. You can make changes to the configuration in the portal at any time, and upload the new configuration to your SOLO RED system using the app. Set Isolation using the app SOLO RED automatically calculates and sets isolation according to any value given. The default isolation value is 20 dB. To enter a new value for isolation:

1. Click on the current isolation value 2. Type-in the new value 3. Click on calculate and set A message will appear on the screen once the system has been adjusted to the new value. If you can't achieve enough isolation, you can try one of the options below:

1. Increase the spatial separation between the donor and the closer server antenna. 2. Try a larger value for the coupler feeding the antenna causing the issue 3. Look for a donor antenna location with some physical obstructions such as walls or columns. 4. If you're using a wide-angle donor antenna, consider replacing it by a high-isolation antenna. Set Uplink power using the app In this section, you will learn how to set a value for the output transmit power to reach the high-site without blocking the receiver. Two pieces of information are required to determinate the most optimal value. Decimal coordinates from both the high-site and SOLO RED and the desired signal level reaching the remote site (the default value is -95dBm). 1. Open the WAVE PRO app and select Uplink output power configuration. 2. Enter the coordinates of the remote site. 3. Enter the coordinates of the building. 4. Enter the desired value in dBm to reach the high-site. 5. Press the Calibrate button and wait until you see the message "System has been calibrated."

A battery that has failed or are not sufficiently charged may cause this alarm. Allow the battery to charge, and test the battery if the alarm does not clear. See the Preventative Maintenance section for more information. Check donor antenna, coax, and connectors. The DC resistance at the donor antenna port should measure 10k ohms. Note that a lightning arrestor must be DC pass-through. The donor antenna must be a Cel-Fi Public Safety donor antenna with 10k resistor, or a suitable antenna with a 10k ohm QAUTRA RED Donor Antenna Sensor. Go to the WAVE Portal for alarm information and guidance. Observe the LEDs states for all components, and log onto the portal for diagnostic information. If a RA or monitored antenna is added or removed, restart the system so all hardware reregisters with the system. Check donor antenna, coax, and connectors. The DC resistance at the donor antenna port should measure 10k ohms. Note that a lightning arrestor must be DC pass-through. The donor antenna must be a Cel-Fi Public Safety donor antenna with 10k resistor, or a suitable antenna with a 10k ohm QAUTRA RED Donor Antenna Sensor.

In the event that power from the BBU is lost, the RA will continue to display the last known alarm state using its internal battery. To silence the alarms, press the EPO Switch. This will also trip the AC/DC breakers in the BBU. To restart the system, reset the EPO Switch and turn on the DC breaker within the BBU. Normal OK Status Alarm Normal AC Power BBU Link Loss of normal AC power Battery Charger Fail Low Battery Capacity Donor Antenna Disconnection Active RF Emitting Device Malfunction System Component Malfunction Donor Antenna Malfunction Green Green Off Off Off Off Off Off Off Red Red Red Red Red Red Red Red Red Appendix D - Preventative Maintenance BBU Main Battery and Charging Nextivity recommends a Deep-Cycle battery (inspect and maintain BBU battery according to battery manufacturer instructions). Normal Battery Voltage 12VDC Charge Voltage Current (Max) 12-14VDC 12A Once a year, inspect the BBU battery for cracks or corrosion, and make sure wires and battery connections are not loose or corroded. Clean and tighten battery terminals if needed. If the BBU Low Battery Capacity LED alarm is triggered, perform the following tests:

Step 1: Open the BBU door panel and power down the BBU by switching OFF both DC and AC circuit breakers. Step 2: Remove all battery wire terminals, being careful not to short any wires to the BBU housing. Inspect and clean battery terminals and wire connections. Measure the Open Circuit voltage of each battery. The volt meter negative tester lead must connect to the battery's negative post and the positive tester lead to the positive post. Step 3: If your battery displays a charge within the 12.85 to 12.95 range, it is 100 percent charged. The battery should measure within this range if freshly charged. A voltage of 12.65 means it is only 75 percent charged, while a 12.35 reading correlates to a 50 percent charge. A voltage reading of 10.5 volts or lower usually indicates a dead or damaged cell battery which must be replaced. Step 4: If any battery fails to fully charge after the wire terminators and battery terminals have been cleaned and properly attached, replace the battery.

To facilitate this, the Cel-Fi QUATRA Network Unit is connected to the internet through the install site LAN. Typical data payload is around 2kBytes once per hour, or 17 MB per year (system health data) or can increase temporarily during software updates or for remote troubleshooting. Commissioning requires this internet connection, even if temporary. Ping (ICMP) is not supported. The WAVE system requires the following networking access:

1) DHCP (standard UDP port 67) 2) DNS (standard UDP port 53) 3) ntp.cel-fi.com (standard UDP port 123, used for internal certificate validation only.) 4) iot.cel-fi.com (TCP port 443 (HTTPS)) 5) NextivityIoTHubQA.azure-devices.net (TCP port 443 (HTTPS)) 6) nextivitystorageqa.blob.core.windows.net (TCP port 443 (HTTPS)) Connections are always initiated from the device side. There is no need to configure any inbound ports on the firewall, thereby reducing exposure to external threats. To achieve both these attributes and still remain responsive to external commands, QUATRA uses Websockets. Websockets is a lightweight IETF protocol that is built on top of HTTP and establishes persistent TCP connections between a client and server. Since the connection is initiated on client side and uses regular HTTPS, typically no special inbound firewall configuration is needed, yet commands can be delivered to the device in real-time.
