2 Preparations for Base Station SiteMaintenance

This section describes the preparation strategy for base station site maintenance. Thepreparations for site maintenance involve obtaining site information, selecting maintenanceitems, and arranging maintenance tools and spare parts.

Collecting Site Information

Before you maintain the base station site, collect the following information:

l Faults and alarms that are not cleared

l Hardware configurations

l Local environment

l Spare parts

Selecting Maintenance Items

Select suitable maintenance items based on actual requirements of the base station. Themaintenance items are as follows:

l Equipment room environment of the base station

l Power supply and grounding system of the base station

l Main components in the base station

l Antenna system of the base station

Preparing Maintenance Tools and Spare Parts

Prepare the related maintenance tools and spare parts based on the site information andmaintenance items of the base station.

The most commonly used tools for site maintenance are as follows:

l Frequency test devices, such as a frequency generator and a spectrum analyzer.

l Power test devices that are used to test and analyze the output power of the base station.Power meter is a commonly used power test device.

l Antenna and feeder test devices that are used to test the Voltage Standing Wave Ratio(VSWR), return loss, and cable insertion loss for fault location. The commonly usedantenna and feeder test device is the SiteMaster.

l Other devices– Multimeter– Diagnosis tools and robustness test devices– Local Maintenance Terminal (LMT)– Rubidium clock (used to locate the clock of the base station)

NOTE

Addition tools and new parts may be required when more faulty parts are found during themaintenance.

Fault Measure

Failure of power supplyto all the internalcomponents of thecabinet

Check whether the PGND cable and input power cable areproperly connected.l If cable connections are incorrect, set all the power switches to

OFF, and then reconnect the power cables.l If cable connections are correct, replace the EPU, DCDU-11A,

or DCDU-11C.

Failure of power supplyto a board in the cabinet

Do as follows:1. Remove the board, and then check that the pins of the slot on

the backplane are not distorted, broken, or missing. Replacethe subrack if necessary.

2. Insert the board into the subrack, and then check the indicatorstatus on the board.

3. If the indicator indicates an exception, remove the board, insertit into another similar vacant slot, and then check the indicatorstatus on the board.l If the board works properly, the original slot is faulty. In

this case, replace the subrack.l If the fault persists, the board is faulty. In this case, replace

the board.

Fault Measure

Failure of power supplyto any other type ofcomponent in thecabinet

Use a multimeter to measure the input voltage of the component.l If the input power is normal (ranging from -57 V DC to -43.2

V DC), replace the component.l If the input power is abnormal, check whether the power cables

for the component are securely connected. If cable connectionsare not secure, set all power switches on the EPU, DCDU-11A,or DCDU-11C to OFF, and then reconnect the power cables.If cable connections are secure, the power switches or fuses onthe module may be damaged. In this case, replace the moduleor fuses.

4.2 Powering Off a CabinetThe BTS3900A can be powered off in two ways: normal power-off and emergency power-off.

ContextYou must perform the normal power off for the BTS3900A in normal situations such as plannedequipment move and anticipating a territorial blackout.

You must perform the emergency power off for the BTS3900A in an emergency such as a fire,smoke, or water immersion.

Procedurel Normal power-off

1. Modify the management status to block all the RFUs in the RFC.

NOTE

Although the RFU can be blocked either remotely or locally, you are advised to block the RFUremotely.

If the RF module works in dual mode, you need to block the RFU in both modes.

Note that you cannot block an RF module working in GSM mode but can only block the carriersof the RF module.

2. Set all the circuit breakers on the DCDU-11A in the radio frequency cabinet (RFC)to OFF.

3. Set all the circuit breakers on the DCDU-11C in the transmission cabinet (TMC) toOFF.

4. Set all the circuit breakers on the power distribution box (PDB) in the IBBS200T orIBBS200D to OFF.

5. Set all the circuit breakers on the embedded power subrack unit (EPU) to OFF.6. Turn off the external power switch of the BTS3900A.

5.1 Querying an Electronic LabelBefore replacing a board or component, you must query the electronic label to confirm the typeof the faulty board or the type of the cabinet that houses the faulty component.

5.1.1 Query Electronic Label of the BoardBefore replacing a board, you need to query the electronic label of the board at the remote endto confirm the type of board to be replaced.

5.1.2 Querying Electronic Cabinet LabelsYou must query the electronic cabinet label before replacing a component in a cabinet todetermine the cabinet type.

5.1.1 Query Electronic Label of the BoardBefore replacing a board, you need to query the electronic label of the board at the remote endto confirm the type of board to be replaced.

1. Run the DSP BTSELABEL command on the LMT to query the information of the boardthat is configured on the GSM side or run the LST BRDINFO command on the LMT toquery the information of the board that is configured on the UMTS side or run the DSPBRDMFRINFO command on the LMT to query the information of the board that isconfigured on the LTE side.

2. Confirm the type of board to be replaced according to the Boardtype and Descriptionfields in the queried result. Ensure that the new board is of the same type by checking theinformation indicated by the bar code on the label of the panel or handle of the new board.Figure 5-1 shows a label containing the bar code.

Figure 5-1 A label containing the bar code

5.1.2 Querying Electronic Cabinet LabelsYou must query the electronic cabinet label before replacing a component in a cabinet todetermine the cabinet type.

1. If the base station works in GSM standard, run the DSP BTSELABEL on the LMT toquery the cabinet type. If the base station works in UMTS or LTE standard, run the DSPELABEL command on the LMT to query the cabinet type.

2. View the information displayed under Description in the command execution result toknow the cabinet type.

Step 2 Switch off the external AC input power to the APM30H cabinet.

Step 3 Remove the power monitoring unit (PMU) and all the power supply units (PSUs) from the EPU.For details, see 5.5.2 Replacing a PMU and 5.5.3 Replacing a PSU.

Step 4 Remove the cables from the EPU.1. Loosen the two captive screws on the metal protective cover on the left of the EPU, and

then remove the cover.2. Use a Phillips screwdriver to remove the plastic protective covers from the terminal blocks

on the left of the EPU.3. Record the connections of the AC input and output power cables, and then disconnect the

cables.4. Install the two plastic protective covers in the original positions.5. Record the connections of the DC cables to the EPU panel, and then disconnect the DC

cables.6. Record the connections of the DC cables that are interconnected to the cables on the right

of the EPU, and then disconnect the DC cables.7. Record the connection of the PGND cable (the other end of which is connected to the ground

bar on the left of the cabinet) to the EPU, and then disconnect the cable from the EPU.

CAUTIONThe PE wire of the AC input power cable is connected to a hexagonal screw on a mountingear of the EPU. The hexagonal screw must be stored properly after the PE wire isdisconnected.

Step 5 Use a Phillips screwdriver to remove the eight remaining captive screws from both sides of theEPU, and then gently pull the EPU out of the cabinet along the guide rails, as shown in Figure5-61.

CAUTIONThe EPU is heavy. Therefore, hold the bottom of the EPU with one hand, and slowly pull theEPU out with the other hand. This prevents it from falling and ensures personal safety.
