After connecting the PC to the Repeater following message appears on the screen:
MIKOM REPEATER MR340 - SM2009 (a) - SW: REP1006 V1.00 ENTER <.> <CR>
After connecting the PC to the Repeater, following procedure is necessary to get access to the program.
1Step: .
Note:
1Step: .
The input is case sensitive, no blanks. After three mistrial follows disconnection. ENTER PASSWORD P-word1

The input is case sensitive, no blanks. After three mistrials follows disconnection.
Software Commands
There are four different types of commands: SET commands GET commands STATUS commands ACTION commands - to change variable parameters - to ask status of variable parameters - to ask status of fixed parameters
definition of the severity level for an alarm setting of the ALC threshold alarm message name for external alarms attenuation in DL and UL path definition of local interface baudrate allocates channel numbers changes the dialing method pulse / tone repeater identification sets the maximum value for invalid login attempts definition of initialisation string of the modem changes timeout of local interface
definition of the logic of I/O ports for external alarms two phone numbers for automatic dial out sets parity changes password switch off channel groups definition of the alarm threshold for the output power definition of waiting time between alarm calls definition of the RSSI alarm threshold changes date and time changes user identification

Set Alarmmask
Definition of the severity level for an alarm. According to the syntax of the Set Alarmmask command the following ALARMMASKSTRING is added: -ICE After first power on the ICE alarmmask is set to critical (CRI).
The operation of ICE can be set. That means you can either enable or disable ICE.
ErrorMessage:
- ChannelModule 1 to 8 - Choice E or D
Response: ENTER CHANNEL MODULE (1-8): [ChannelModule] SET CONTROL : dis AUTOMATIC SETTING DISABLED (DIS) ags AUTOMATIC GAIN SETTING (AGS) enter choice: [Choice] where : [ChannelModule] is an even number between 1 and 8 VALUE ERROR in case - ChannelModule 1 to 8 - Choice DIS or AGS
ErrorMessage:
This command sets the delay of the ICE module with highest priority and must not be changed by automatic setting!
Response: ENTER CHANNEL MODULE (1-8): [ChannelModule] SELECT DELAY IN ns (270, 320, 370, 420, 470, 520, 570, 620): [Delay] where : [ChannelModule] is an even number between 1 and 8 [Delay] is one of the following: 270, 320, 370, 420, 470, 520, 570, 620 ns DELAYTIME NOT AVAILABLE in case - 220ns > Delay > 620ns - Delay available delay lines
ErrorMessage:
After first power on the proper value must be the selected due to corresponding delay line which is available or 370 ns in case of all delay lines integrated in the ICE module.
ICE SETUP
This command calculates the delay of the ICE-Module Request : ICE setup
Response: ENTER CHANNEL MODULE (1-8): [ChannelModule] ENTER ANTENNA SPACING IN METERS (0-200) : [distance in m] ENTER TOTAL CABLE LENGTH IN METER (0-200) : [length in m] ENTER PROPAGATION VELOCITY IN % (1-100) : [in %] The software calculates the DELAY and activates the DELAY-LINE. If the correct Delay-line is not integrated in the ICE-module, the error message DELAY LINE NOT AVAILABLE is returned. In case, the calculated DELAY is not possible (delay-time<220ns or delaytime>670ns) the error message DELAY TIME NOT AVAILABLE is returned.
This command sets an internal timer which is activated after an oscillation-conditioned power down. Request : ICE SET POTIME [ChannelModule][Delay in ns] Response: ENTER TIME IN min (15-60): [Time] where : [Time] is an even number between 15 to 60 VALUE ERROR in case 15 > Time > 60 min.
ErrorMessage:
Displays the ICE settings. With this command you can see whether ICE is enabled or not.

4 270 270 0 0
5 270 270 0 0
6 270 270 0 0

where:
This command gets the Delay, which was set by command ICE Set Delay. Request : ICE GET DELAY Response: CHANNEL-MODULE ICE DELAY [ns] where : 1 : 370 2 370 3 4 5 6 7 8
[Delay] is one of the following: 270, 320, 370, 420, 470, 520, 570, 620 ns
After first power on the delay is automatically choosen depending on the available delay line, otherwise (that means if all delay lines available) 370 ns is selected.
ICE Status
After entering the command ICE STATUS, a complete listing of all fixed parameters is given (see following figure). Request : ICE STATUS Response:
CHANNEL-MODULE ICE OSCIL UL ICE OSCIL DL ICE GM UL[dB] ICE GM DL[dB] ICE GR UL[dB] ICE GR DL[dB] : : : : : : 1 OK OK 1 >4 6 6 2 OK OK -1 0 6 6 3 4 5 6 7 8 <CRI> <CRI>
This command displays the additional Repeater attenuation, inserted by the software (AGS-control) for each link.
where :
After typing the command ICE CAP a listing of all available delay lines appears as a response.
8 <CRI>
This command gets the actual software and hardware version of the ICE module. Request : ICE VER Response: CHANNEL-MODULE ICE VERSION SW ICE VERSION HW where : 1 2 : 1.x0 1.x0 : 1.x0 1.x0 3 4 5 6 7 8
[ICE Version SW] can only be V1.10 or higher. [ICE Version HW] can only be V1.00 or higher.
