Introduction
The DSIU PCB
The 4DSIU, 8DSIU or 12DSIU PCB provides the ability to use Aspire Wireless (DECT) phones with
the Aspire system. Each 4DSIU PCB allo ws up to 8 Base Stations to be connected, - the 8DSIU PCB
allows up to 8 - the 12DSIU PCB allows up to 12. Each RFP connector on the PCB provides connection to 4 Base Stations. As the Base Stations are po wered by the DSIU PCB, whenev er a DSIU PCB is
installed in an Aspire cabinet, two power supplies must be installed. Only one DSIU PCB can be
installed in a system with a maximum of 120 handsets and 12 Base Stations connected.
The load factor for each version of PCB is 10. In addition, each Base Station on the card adds an
additional load factor of 2. So the total load factor for the 4DSIU = 18; the 8DSIU = 26; the
12DSIU = 34. (For example, with a 4DSIU, the PCB’s load factor is 10. There are a maximum of
4 Base Stations which can be connected, each with a load factor of 2. The total load factor for the
PCB (10) with all possible Base Stations connected (4 x 2=8) would be 18.) Refer to the Aspire
M/L Hardware Manual (P/N 0893100) for details on the load factor restrictions.
The maximum number of B-channels supported is 32, which means that the DSIU PCB (any version) can support a maximum of 32 conversations at one time.

Introduction
The Base Station
4 ◆
The Base Station, also known as the Radio Fixed Part (RFP), pro vides the link from the Aspire Wireless (DECT) phone to the Aspire system. The Base Station is connected to the DSIU PCB using standard two wire (twisted pair) telephone cable, CAT 4 or CA T 5. The maximum distance from the DSIU
to the Base Station should not exceed 6561’. No local power is required for the Base Station as it
receives it power from the Aspire system. Up to 12 Base Stations can be connected to the system.
Each Base Station supports 4 simultaneous Aspire Wireless (DECT) traffic channels at 32 Kbit/s.
The load factor for the DSIU PCB is 10. In addition, each Base Station on the card adds an additional load factor of 2. So the total load factor for the 4DSIU = 18; the 8DSIU = 26; the 12DSIU =
34. (For example, with a 4DSIU, the PCB’s load factor is 10. There are a maximum of 4 Base Stations which can be connected, each with a load factor of 2. The total load factor for the PCB (10)
with all possible Base Stations connected (4 x 2=8) would be 18.) Refer to the Aspire M/L Hardware Manual (P/N 0893100) for details on the load factor restrictions.
Hot Spots
In areas of high traffic, you can increase traffic capacity by creating a Hot Spot with the Base Stations. Using more Base Stations in an area will increase the number of traffic channels available in
a particular area. The number of Base Stations mounted next to each can not exceed 3.
If more than 12 channels - similar to 3 Base Stations are needed in a particular area, the distance to
the next Base Station or next block of Base Stations must be at least 75’ a line-of-site. It is not recommended to use multiple Repeaters in a Hot Spot area. As the Repeater uses 2 channels from a
Base Station, it would be possible with multiple Repeaters connected in the Hot Spot that at some
point 2 Repeaters could both connect to the same Base Station. This would leave no available channels from that Base Station for a call handover , preventing the call from continuing.
Aspire Wireless Installation Manual
◆
The Repeater
The Repeater, also known as the Wireless Radio Fixed Part (WRFP), provides extended coverage
for low traffic areas not cov ered by a Base Station. Sufficient coverage for the main areas should be
provided by the Base Stations. An external antenna can also be connected which extends the coverage area (maximum distance 3280’). Local power is required for the Repeater (within 6’) and it
must be synchronized with a Base Station in the zone in which it will be providing coverage. The
Repeater is synchronized with the Base Station using the Repeater Programming Kit. This kit provides a cable with an RS232 connection which is used to connect the Repeater to a PC. A Windows
application is then used to define the Base Station with which the Repeater should be synchronized.
Each Repeater can support 2 simultaneous Aspire W ireless (DECT) traf fic channels at 32 Kbit/s. As
the Repeater is paired with the Base Station, these are not additional channels, but are available to
handle calls from the Base Station as the user moves out the range from the Base Station to the
Repeater’s area. Repeaters should be placed at a minimum distance of 75’ (line of site) between
each other in order to prevent problems with the channels in use.
Introduction
Each Base Station can have up to 6 Repeaters, but no more than 3 Repeaters can be used consecutively to form a linear line.

Installation Steps
Determining Base Station/Repeater Locations
8 ◆
●
Determine the deployment of the Base Stations and Repeaters.
●
Evaluate the required RF channels needed (depends on the area and the number of handset).
●
Install the PCB, Base Stations, and Repeaters.
●
Use the Service Tool to register the Repeaters.
●
Register the Aspire Wireless handsets.
●
Measure the cable delay (Program 83-12-01).
●
Test system performance by walking around the work area with a test handset or deployment
tool. The Q value should be 52 or higher.
●
Adjust Base Stations or Repeaters as needed.
The coverage of a Base Station is 164’ to 492’ (50m to 150m) depending on the building material
and the building’ s layout. A clear line of site to the Base Station provides better coverage than if the
signal has to pass through walls.
The units must be placed in such a way that overlapping radio coverage between units is established. A minimum distance of 32-49’ is recommended. This allows the units to hand over calls as a
user reaches the end one unit’s covered area. Keep in mind that this overlap applies horizontally as
well as vertically . If the next Base Station or Repeater is not found while in the o verlapped area, call
handover cannot take place the call will be disconnected once the user leaves the covered area.
Keep in mind that busy areas, such as conference rooms, cafeterias, etc., may need additional Base
Stations connected to provide channels for the increased traffic.
Shadows
Be aware that “shadows” created by parts of the b uilding (such as a cement column, fire door, etc.),
can cause dead zones were the radio signals are not received. Place the Base Stations or Repeaters
appropriately to reduce these shadows, or install additional units to cover the shadow area.
Weather Conditions/Seasons
Different weather conditions can have an influence regarding radio coverage. As soon as parts of
the building get wet, the material can act as a shield, preventing or reducing coverage.
Different seasons can also have an influence on the radio coverage. For example, in the summer
with all the leaves on the trees, radio coverage may change due to the shielding caused by the
leaves.
Neither the Base Station or Repeater are rated for outdoor use. When installing either unit outdoors,
make sure to use a plastic enclosure in which to install the units. A metal enclosure should not be
used!

Installation
Using an Aspire Wireless for Base Station/Repeater Placement
1.Using an available Aspire Wireless telephone, place the phone in test mode by pressing
*99989* then press the OK key. Press the ON-HOOK/OFF-HOOK key.
Measuring coverage is done with the phone in an off-hook condition.
The display should indicate something similar to the following:
RPN:02
RSS:91
0064>1170
The RPN number indicates the hex number of the base station and RSS indicates the RSSI
value. The third row has four groups of numbers. The second value (“64” as shown above) is
the Q-52 value. This is the main value that should be used to determine the location for the
Base Station (RFP) or Repeater (WRFP). The Q-value indicates the bit failure rate in the communication between the RFP/WRFP and the handset. As soon as the Q-value goes below 52,
the handset will ask for a handover to an alternative RFP/WRFP.
The third value (“>1” as shown above) is the RSSI value. This value indicates the field
strength - the signal from the RFP/WRFP. The RSSI-value is only used to select an alternative
RFP/WRFP. The handset will choose the RFP/WRFP in the area which has the strongest RSSI
signal. The recommended value for the outer range of the RSSI should be 65.
2.Move away from the Base Station/Repeater to find the outside of the estimated coverage area
for the unit. The Q-value should be 52 or higher and the RSSI should be 65 or higher. This is
the point of coverage that you want to place another Base Station. A Repeater can be used if it
is a low traffic area.
While measuring the radio coverage, it is important to simulate the influence of people.
This can be done either by shielding the phone with your hand or by turning the handset
and yourself in a way to achieve a “worst case” situation for reception from the Base Station. In both situations, it is important that the Q-value and the RSSI-value be stable and
not fluctuating.

Installation
Using the W indows-compatible ServiceTool program, the Repeaters would be associated as shown
below. For details on using the ServiceTool, refer to Using the Repeater Programming Kit
(page 16).
3.Repeat this process for any additional Base Station/Repeater positioning.
4.To exit the test mode, either hold down the < key or press and hold the OK key for 3 seconds.
The phone turns off. Press the ON-HOOK/OFF-HOOK key to turn the phone back on.
Aspire Wireless Installation Manual
Installation
Use the Deployment Tool for Base Station/Repeater Placement
Before installing the Aspire Wireless equipment, the deployment and diagnostics tool can be used
to find the best place for the Base Stations by measuring the area of coverage of a Base Station
within the building. Proper placement for the equipment is required for complete Aspire Wireless
phone coverage.
In a building which has multiple telephone systems installed, the Deployment Tool can see all the
systems to determine if there are too may systems running (too much radio activity in the air). It can
be set to find all current Station Stations running, but it is possible, by making a selection of the
RFPI number, to search for a particular group of bases. If you wish to check the range of a particular base in a multi-base system, the Deployment Tool is able to lock onto the Base Station to avoid
handover to any other units. You can also use the Deployment Tool to see channels with noise le v els
from -90 dBm to -60 dBm in jumps of 5 dBm.
The antenna is mounted on the Deployment Tool’s handset using a simple plug. This allows it to be
used for installing external antennas - it would simply be plugged into the Deployment Tool’s handset.
Deployment Tool Handset
Finding and correcting faults in an Aspire Wireless setup can be done easily with the Deployment
Tool Handset. The handset contains various features which simplify fault finding in an existing
Aspire Wireless setup so it can be adjusted for proper communication, or allows for correct placement prior to system installations.
Charger
The charger enables you to simultaneously charge the handset and a battery. The two small indicators placed on the front of the charger show the status of charging. Connect the charger through the
DC jack on the back of the charger and the AC/DC power supply to an outlet.
The temperature limit for normal use is between +10 Celsius and +45 Celsius. The battery is too
cold (below +10) if the indicator flashes red simultaneously with a steady green light. The unit will
maintain it’s current charge (charging maintenance) until the correct temperature is reached. The
battery is defective or too hot (more than +45) if the indicator constantly flashes red on and off. In
this case, the unit will not be charged.
The telephone stand is used as follows:
●Put the handset in the charger and control its position.
●make sure that the left indicator has a red light, which indicates the unit is being charged.
●When normal charging has completed (approximately 8 hours), the left indicator will display
as a constant green light. The charger then changes automatically to charging maintenance,
keeping the battery fully charged until the handset is removed.

3.Before proceeding further , mak e sure the switc h SW3 on the NTCPU is set to OFF in order
to retain the current system programming.
4.Insert the DSIU PCB into an available slot.
The white PCB Pull Tab should always be positioned closet to the top of cabinet.
5.The Base Station requires one pair cable from the DSIU connection. A standard CAT 5 cable
from the RFP connector to a 66 block can be used. From the 66 block, connect one pair of
wires to each Base Station installed (each DSIU connector provides connection to 4 Base Stations and requires 4 available ports). Refer to the RJ61 pin-out information below.
Use standard two wire (twisted pair) telephone cable to connect to the phone system.
To prevent disturbances from other equipment, it is necessary to use twisted pair (e.g . Cat.
4 or Cat. 5).
The two-wire cable has a maximum cable length of 6561 feet (0.5mm cable) from the
DSIU PCB to the Base Station.

➻ 20-22-05 : System Options for DECT Service - Out-of-Range Judging Time
Use this program to defines the time the system waits before determining the Aspire Wireless
phone is out of range. For incoming calls, the timer begins when the call is received. If the
time defined here expires before the Aspire Wireless phone starts to ring, the system determines the phone is out of range and provides the out-of-range services (indicates out-of range,
transfers the call to voice mail or to another extension) (Default = 8 seconds, Range:
0=64800).
Use this program to define the location area - whether the Base Stations/RFPs are all in the
same area or whether each Base Station in located in a different area (Default = 0 [whole
area], Range: 0=whole area, 1=each different).
This program enables (1) or disables (0) encryption for the phone when placing and receiving
calls (0=disabled, 1=enabled).
➻ 83-12-01 : DECT Measurement (MF Level)
This program measures the length of cables connecting the PCB and Base Stations so that the
system can find the best signal transmitting timing for handover. Enter Program 83-12-01,
press 1 then HOLD. The system will then restart all Base Stations/RFPs (this takes 3-5 minutes) and then they will use the best timing possible. This program should be used any time
the Base Station configuration is changed (adding or deleting Base Stations or changing connecting cables).
➻ 90-27-01 : DECT System ID
Use this program to view or delete the ID number associated with the DSIU PCB. The system
ID is a unique number embedded into the DSIU PCBs. This program data cannot be edited,
but it can be viewed or deleted. After deleting the ID, the Aspire Wireless (DECT) PCB will
be reset by the system. When exchanging DSIU PCBs, the system ID for the first PCB must
first be deleted before installing the new PCB as each PCB has its own number.
