Repeater Alarm: Master Power Failure
Alarm Imitation: Shut down repeater power supply AC 220V
Master Power Failure
Alarm Reason : No AC 220V Power Supply
Solution check and restore the AC power supply
Reason and Solution
Power Module Alarm
Alarm Reason : 1.AC 220V Power Supply Modules malfunction
Solution Replace the power module
Alarm Reason : 2.Ouput DC Voltage fluctuation is beyond 15% of
Voltage Rating
Solution: Disconnect all power cables to other modules and
connect to power module one by one to check the faulty module
and replace it

Repeater Alarm: Master/Slave Module Communication
Failure Alarm Imitation: Disconnect the RS485 cable between
monitoring board and other modules
M/S Module Comm. Failure
Alarm Reason I: the RS485 cable between monitoring board and
other modules is broken
Solution replace the RS485 cable
Reason and Solution
Alarm Reason III: failure of the DCS integration module
Solution check and replace the DCS integration
module
Alarm Reason II: failure of the GSM integration module

Repeater Alarm: Over temp. Alarm
Alarm Imitation: PA Temp Limit:85
PA Real Temp:40~60
Adjust the PA Temp Limit to the level of 90
Over Temp. Alarm
Alarm Reason I: ambient temperature is out of the tolerance of design.
Solution equip an overshadow canopy to avoid the high
temperature caused by the direct sunshine.
Reason and Solution
Alarm Reason II: the environmental condition is air-tighted, so the
heat can not be sent out fluently.
Solution move the repeater to a ventilated location

Repeater Alarm: Downlink Over Input Power Alarm
Alarm Imitation: Original repeater input power limit:-60~-30dBm
Set repeater over input power limit at the level of
-60dBm
DL Over I/P Alarm
Alarm Reason I: set the DL Over I/P Limit too low
Solution set the DL Over I/P Limit to -30dBm again
Reason and Solution
Alarm Reason II: the signal which the donor antenna received is too strong.
Solution add the attenuator in the input port of repeater or change
the position of donor antenna to adjust the input power of repeater
Alarm Pandle
DL Low I/P Alarm
Alarm Reason I: Set the DL Low I/P Limit too high
Solution Set the DL Low I/P Limit to -60dBm again
Reason and Solution
Alarm Reason II: the signal which the donor antenna received is too
weak.
Solution Change the position of donor antenna and check the
feeder cable which connect to input port of repeater to
increase input power
Repeater Alarm: Downlink Low Input Power Alarm
Alarm Imitation: Original repeater input power limit:-60~-30dBm
Set repeater low input power limit at the level of

Alarm Imitation: Original repeater output power limit:9~29dBm
for 27dB gain repeater
Set repeater over output power Limit at the level
of 9dBm
DL Over O/P Alarm
Alarm Reason I: Set the DL Over O/P Limit too low
Solution Set the DL Over O/P Limit to 29dBm
Reason and Solution
Alarm Reason II: failure in output of PA in repeater
Solution check and adjust the output of PA in repeater, if
there is
malfunction in PA, replace the integration module.
