28 OMEGA Installation, Operation, and Maintenance Manual
The voltage between the red and black terminals of the battery
should be between +12.5 and +14.0 Volts.
Checking the Antenna
Make sure the antenna is securely fastened to the OMEGA cellular
transceiver. Hand-tighten the antenna to ensure that it is securely
connected to the transceiver. If it is, use the procedures under “Call
Origination Testing” on page 22 and “Call Answer Testing” on
page 23 to verify antenna operation.
Checking the Battery Voltage
If your OMEGA contains the Battery option, use the following
procedure to check the battery operation:
1.
Move the Battery Power switch to the OFF position (see Figure
1-1 on page 13).
2.
Lift the AC fuse connector to remove AC power from
OMEGA.
3.
Check the voltage between the red and black terminals at the
battery (see Figure 1-1 on page 13). The voltage should be
approximately +12.5 to 13.0 Volts. This is the Voltage output
of the battery without the load.
4.
Move the Battery Power switch to ON and check the voltage
again. The voltage should be between +12.0 and 12.5 Volts
with the load. If the voltage for the battery terminal is below
11.5 Volts, the battery will need to be recharged or replaced.
Reinitializing OMEGA
There may be times when you need to initialize OMEGA. For
example, you may want to reinitialize OMEGA in hopes of
obtaining better cellular reception.
To initialize OMEGA, press the
Test
button. This resets OMEGA
and checks OMEGA’s receive cellular signal strength for
approximately one minute. During this time, OMEGA is
inoperable and cannot originate or answer calls.
