Precaution 2-1

2. PRECAUTION

The maintenance personnel should report arrival and departure from a station to the
relevant station. The following precaution must be carefully observed during
maintenance.

Warning
1. The -48V DC power is superimposed on the centre conductor of the coaxial
cable between the IDU and the ODU. Connecting test equipment directly to
this terminal may damage it and touching the coaxial cable core may cause
electrical shock.

2. Persons performing maintenance must take necessary steps to avoid


Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) which may damage the cards on the IDU or
cause error. Wear a conductive wrist strap connected to the grounded (G)
jack on the front of the equipment shelf. This will minimize static build-up
during maintenance.
3. Turn off the IDU before connecting/disconnecting the IF cable to avoid the
equipment damaged.
4. After turning ON the equipment, wait at least 1 minute before turning it OFF
again. Repeatedly turning the power ON and OFF within a short interval may
cause the equipment damaged.
5. Do not allow open or short circuit ODU TX output with the TX power on
conditions. Perform the TX Mute control in the Maintenance mode or turn off
the IDU before disconnecting cable or feeder from the ODU TX output.
6. Contact NEC before program download on the LCT is performed. Equipment
may not function correctly with improper operation.

Caution
1. In a system using the optical interface, do not stare at the laser beam or look
at it directly with optical instruments. Otherwise, it may hurt your eyes (Class
1 laser product)
2. The surface of the IDU is hot in operation.
3. When replacing the IDU, turn off the IDU and disconnected all cables.
4. During maintenance, the IDU should be set to maintenance ON by the LCT.
5. While the CPU is initialized by the CPU RESET switch, alarm(s) status is
reset to normal. After initialized, the alarm information is properly provided
through relay contacts.

Maintenance NWD-142958-01E
2-2 Precaution

6. Information on the maintenance and the control such as Mute, CW, LB etc.
is released if the power is turned off.
7. If each setup item of NE SETUP or SYSTEM OPERATION is changed
during in operation, traffic will be momentarily interrupted.
8. After completing maintenance, restore all connections, manual control
settings to normal and confirm that all alarm LEDs are unlit.
9. After equipment start-up, allow the equipment to warm up at least 30
minutes.

6. CORRECTIVE MAINTENANCE

Corrective maintenance to be done in the field is described in this chapter. Corrective


maintenance in the field covers fault isolation, card/unit replacement and alignment.
The fault location procedures describe how to isolate card-level/unit-level faults.

Faults can be classified in to those that cause deterioration of the transmission quality
and those that interrupt the traffic due to a malfunction of the equipment. This
chapter explains the troubleshooting procedures for equipment faults and the
corresponding remedial methods. The purpose of troubleshooting malfunctioning
equipment is to restart the service by locating the faulty part and replacing it with a
spare.

The faults that cause deterioration quality are primarily originated by changes
occurred in the state of propagation. Therefore, if a decline in the transmission
quality or similar fakes place frequently, the link design will have to be reviewed.

During the corrective maintenance, carefully observe the precautions given in


Chapter2, until the alignment is completed.

Maintenance NWD-142958-01E
6-2 Corrective Maintenance

6.1 Alarm/Status
When an alarm event has occurred, at first, check alarm indication on the front of the
IDU. Continuously, connect the PC to the LOCAL jack on the LCT port mounted on
the IDU and check alarm/status indication.

A faulty part can be located by checking the ALARM LED indications and LCT
Alarm indications.

Alarm Report
When an alarm is detected, alarm notification is made to the user by lighting
up the LEDs on the rack, and reporting the alarm to user interface. The alarm
notification is also made to the user by an Office alarm, such as the station
alarm bell and lamps.

ALARM LED indication


LED at the front of the rack lights up/turns off when alarm is
generated/cleared to report the alarm to the user.

6.1.1 Alarm Management


The alarm severity of each failure is indicated by the following alarm level and alarm
class. Alarm classes can be modified. Modification is done by Alarm Severity
Setting.

6.1.1.1 Alarm Class

Critical (CR) :
The Critical severity level indicates that a service affecting condition has occurred
and an immediate corrective action is required. Such a severity can be reported, for
example, when a managed object becomes totally out of service and its capability
must be restored.

Major (MJ):
The Major severity level indicates that a service affecting condition has developed
and an urgent corrective action is required. Such a severity can be reported, for
example, when there is a severe degradation in the capability of the managed object
and its full capability must be restored.

Minor (MN):
The Minor severity level indicates the existence of a non-service affecting fault
condition and that corrective action should be taken in order to prevent a more
serious (for example, service affecting) fault. Such a severity can be reported, for
example, when the detected alarm condition is not currently degrading the capacity
of the managed object.

Warning (WR):
The Warning severity level indicates the detection of a potential or impending
service affecting fault, before any significant effects have been felt. Action should be
taken to further diagnose (if necessary) and correct the problem in order to prevent it
from becoming a more serious service affecting fault.

There are several maintenance control items that can be set during Maintenance
Mode.

The function of each control is as follows (These windows are not available when
MAINT is OFF. Switch to Maintenance mode first is displayed).

 ATPC Manual Control

If TX Power Control Mode selects ATPC Mode, execute temporally fix control
to transmit POWER. Select the value range described in ( ) of ATPC Range that
located in the Provisioning Menu (MODEM Function setting -> TX Power
Setting) for Transmit POWER. ATPC Manual Control available to select the
either Auto or Manual. If transmit POWER is required to fix control temporarily,

Note: ATPC Manual Control is not effective if MTPC Mode is selected.

 TX Mute Control

Despite the equipment configuration setting, forcing the “TX Mute Control” to
ON, the transmit power of the ODU will stop.

If Mute Control is set to OFF, it will cancel the Mute control.

Notes
1. IF Mute Control is set to OFF and due to uncontrollable factors Mute OFF
does not work, Mute status will remain on.
2. When TX Mute is controlled by a remote control, it is possible to set the
automatic restoration time. Therefore, TX Mute Release Time is set.
3. TX Mute Release Time is set together with TX Mute Control by the item that
becomes effective only when TX Mute Control is done from a higher-level
device.

Maintenance NWD-142958-01E
7-48 Control Items

 CW Control

CW (no transmission modulation) is controlled.


It uses it when the frequency is measured with a frequency counter and when
spurious is checked.
If you run the CW control over a pre-made Mute ON, run CW ON/OFF after
Mute OFF. At this time, when there is a factor that the CW control is not turned
on it becomes CW control error.
In addition, in case of remote connection and operated Control CW, it may not
be able to recover again. CW Control will restore automatically according to
the TX Mute Release Time parameter.

 TX Modulation Manual Control

The flat rate of the transmission modulation method of the control station in the
AMR mode is temporarily managed.
The modulation method can be set according to the target device regardless of
the AMR Range setting.
Under the 1+0 configuration, each Slot#/Slot# is individually controlled.
This control is done by exchanging request/answer of the control between remote
stations.
When the TX Modulation Manual Control setting is returned from Manual to
Auto, the fixed modulation method is returned to QPSK.

7.2.3.1 ATPC Manual Control

Performing this function (Manual Control), the Maintenance Mode becomes On.
However, in case of Auto setting and if Maintenance Mode is set to Off it will cancel
