Safety Instructions Guideline

Electrical Safety
Electric Shock: Never install or uninstall power cables while they are live. At the instant when the power cable touches a conductor, electric spark or electric arc might be generated, resulting in fire or damage to eyes. Shut down the power supply before installing or uninstalling a power cable. Before connecting cables, make sure that the cables and cable labels match the practical installation conditions. Warning: Drilling in the cabinet without prior permission is prohibited. Unnecessary drilling can damage cables inside the cabinet. The metal pieces blown in during drilling can cause short circuits in the circuit board.
Static Electricity
Electrostatic: Static electricity produced by human body can damage electrostatic-sensitive components on the circuit board, such as Large Integrated Circuits (LIC). Friction caused by human body is the root cause of electrostatic charge accumulation. In a dry environment, the static voltage carried by human body can be up to 30 kV and can remain in human body for a long time. Person carrying static charge can damage a component by touching it and hence transferring the charge to the component. To prevent human body's static charge from damaging sensitive components, wear the antistatic wrist strap and ground its other end before touching the equipment or holding a plug-in board, circuit board, or IC chip etc.
Laser
Laser: Do not stare at the laser beam from the optical terminal or the laser beam inside the optical fiber; otherwise human eyes would be injured.
High Temperature
Danger: The temperature of some components' surface is quite high. Do not touch the surface to avoid a scald injury.
Fans
Warning: Keep fingers or tools away from the running fan blades unless the fan is powered off and fan blades stop running. Keep your fingers or body away from any component that is still running. While replacing components, put screws, tools and components in a safe place. Do not let them fall into the running fan to avoid damaging the fan or relevant devices. While replacing devices near the fan, keep fingers or boards away from the fan to avoid human injuries or device damages.
Hoisting Weights
Warning: Make sure that no one stays or walks under the hoisted weight. To disassemble, move, or replace a heavy equipment, make sure that facilities with proper hoisting capability are available. Personnel performing the hoisting task must have received proper training. Before the hoisting operation is performed, the hoisting tools must be checked and be complete. Make sure that the hoisting tools are firmly fixed on the support frame or the wall. Use short command to avoid misoperation.
Plugging/Unplugging a Module
Here, modules include boards and subracks. Caution: Operators must wear the antistatic wrist strap. Do not plug in a board with great force as it might bend the pins at the backplane. Insert the module along the slot to avoid the circuit surface of modules touching each other lest there is any short circuit. While holding a module, do not touch its circuits, components, connectors, and wiring trough. The RF module is very hot during the running process, operators must be very careful in plugging/unplugging it to avoid a scald injury.
Personnel
Caution: Non-professionals can not perform maintenance inside the equipment unless under the instructions of professionals on the site. Replacing any part or altering the equipment might result in unexpected dangers. Therefore, do not replace any part or alter the equipment unless being authorized.

BTS Testing
Measuring Output Power of Power Amplifier
Prerequisites
Tools: 1. One 3 1/2 digital multimeter 2. One 150 W thru-line wattmeter 3. RF cables 4. Other metal fittings
Steps
1. Turn off the Radio Unit (RU)'s power supply. The RU's power switch is on the front panel of PDM. 2. Disconnect the power supply and make the RU not output power, loosen the antenna feeder cable connectors, and connect them with a thru-line wattmeter and a large-power load. Note: When the RU is not connected with any antenna, connect it with a 100 W microwave power load. When the RU is connected with antenna, it needs not be connected with any load. 3. Turn on the power supply and add excitation (RU has output). Read the power of the set frequency band (GSM900: 925 MHz ~ 960 MHz; GSM1800: 1805 MHz ~ 1880 MHz). In the case of full power, read the output power and the gain flatness. 4. After the test is completed, disassemble connections among thru-line wattmeter, large-power load, and the Power Amplifier (PA) output end, restore the connection between PA output end and the antenna feeder cable. Make the RU power on again.
RSU60: For GMSK, the maximum cabinet-top output power is 49 dBm (80 W); for 8PSK, the maximum cabinet-top output power is 47 dBm (50 W). If the test result is abnormal, check whether power control parameters at background are set correctly, and check whether RF cable connections between modules and antenna feeders are reliable. Common PA faults include PA module (front-end) faults and PA tube (rear-end) faults. They cause low gain and decreased output power. If PA is faulty, replace the RU where the faulty PA is located.
Precautions
During the measuring process, services supported by the RU should be interrupted.
