■ Checking the basic functionality of the base station by using the tests
available in the web interface
■ Customizing the configuration for the intended installation and
verifying that the configuration is correct

5.4.1 Confirming Operation
Notice The RF output must be connected to a suitable attenuator or
dummy load. Do not remove the load while the PA is transmitting as
this may damage the PA output stage.
Applying Power 1. Apply power to the TB7300.
2. Check that the base station powers up correctly:
All LEDs turn on initially, then the transmit and receive LEDs turn
off, leaving the green power LED on, and the red alarm LED flash-
ing. The alarm LED will turn off when the base station has finished
its start-up sequence.
