In MML command line type in DSP ANTCON

NOTE: Power Supply Port default value for N0A, N2A & N4A is always ON state.

Reset ALD POWER SWITCH


SET ALDPWRSW to OFF and then to ON Check results using DSP ANTCON. ON STATE: SMBT HAS CURRENT CONSUMPTION OFF STATE: SMBT HAS ZERO CONSUMPTION

IF in ON STATE THERE IS ZERO CURRENT CONSUMPTION AND/OR CANNOT SWITCH OFF AND ON the status, THEN SMBT /TMA IS DEFECTIVE.

Remove and Add the affected ALD.


RMV ALD Example Remove the ALD named 0_0N0A0RET_3G. RMV ALD: NAME ="0_0N0A0RET_3G"; ADD ALD Example 1. Regular installation scenario: Add a single RET antenna named 0_0N0A0RET_3G to antenna connector N0A in subrack 3 of cabinet 0 corresponding to sector 0 in NodeB site 0. ADD ALD: NAME="0_0N0A0RET_3G", CASE=REGULAR, DEVTP=SINGLE_RET, CN=0, SRN=3, ACN=N0A;

Use the command SCN ALD to verify ALD status after using RMV ALD and/or ADD ALD commands.

Check RCU functionality


CLB ANT
Example 1. Calibrate the RET antenna named 0_0N0A0RET_3G. CLB ANT: OPMODE=NAME, NAME="0_0N0A0RET_3G"; 2. Calibrate the RET antenna connected to antenna connector N0A in subrack 3 of cabinet 0. CLB ANT: OPMODE=CSAT, SRN=3, ACN=N0A, DEVTP=SINGLE_RET;

SET ANTTILT
Example 1. Set the tilt of the RET antenna named 0_0R0A0RET_3G to 2. SET ANTTILT: OPMODE=NAME, NAME="0_0R0A0RET_3G", TILT=20; 2. Set the tilt of the RET antenna connected to antenna connector R0A in subrack 60 of cabinet 0 to 2. SET ANTTILT: OPMODE=CSAT, SRN=60, ACN=R0A, DEVTP=SINGLE_RET, TILT=20;

Check Failure Cause: --Not Calibrated---------check HARDWARE --Motor Fault-------------check HARDWARE --RCU not in Positioncheck HARDWARE

Reset the affected ALD.


RST ALD
Example 1. Reset the RET antenna named 0_0N0A0RET_3G. RST ALD: OPMODE=NAME, NAME="0_0R0A0RET_3G";

If alarm not cleared using SOFTWARE SOLUTION, then go to HARDWARE SOLUTION

CHECK AISG CABLE FUNCTIONALITY

HOW TO CHANGE AISG CABLE

1. SET ALDPWRSW to OFF 2. Replace AISG cable. 3. SET ALDPWRSW to ON

USE MULTIMETER TO CHECK THE CONNECTIVITY OF EACH PIN PINS 1, 3, 5, 6, 7 SHORTED = CABLE is OK If one or more of the PINS 1, 3, 5, 6, 7OPEN = CABLE is defective

HOW TO CHANGE/REMOVE RCU


1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. RMV ALD and then SCN ALD to verify the ALD is removed SET ALDPWRSW to OFF. Remove RCU device and cable. Install RCU device and cable. SET ALDPWRSW to ON. Then, ADD ALD SCN ALD to scan the new ALD device. DLD ALDCFG to load the configuration of RCU if new RCU is used.

ALDCFG is located on the NodeB software.

HOW TO CHANGE SMBT/TMA 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. BLK BRD ( N0A=SN 0, N2A=SN 2, N4A-SN 4) SET TXSW to OFF. Remove SMBT/TMA devices and cables. Install SMBT/TMA devices and cables. SET TXSW to ON. UBL BRD.
