Equipment Maintenance
Introduction
The purpose of daily maintenance is to completely ensure that the product is in its best condition at any moment so as to guarantee the proper running of the whole system. 1. Maintenance classification The daily maintenance of ZXG10-BSC (VB consists of two types: routine maintenance and emergent maintenance. Routine maintenance is a periodical task. It can be regarded as daily routine operation and periodical work based on the length of each maintenance period. Emergent maintenance refers to emergent measures taken to deal with the sudden failures of equipment, or network adjustment such as equipment failure, user notification fault, and unexpected faults in performing routine maintenance. Since the sudden failures befall unexpectedly and usually have serious effect on the service quality, decisive and cautious processing by maintenance personnel are rather important. Also, detailed records are kept afterwards to help analyze the reason of fault, solve the problem, and avoid encountering similar troubles in the future. 2. Requirements and suggestions

The daily maintenance of ZXG10-BSC (VB equipment is considered as the primary task of the maintenance personnel in the equipment room. Since the sound daily maintenance is a crucial factor of guaranteeing the stable operation of the system in the long term, equipment room maintenance related byelaws should be made to standardize and guide the maintenance personnel. Some basic requirements and suggestions about daily maintenance are described as follows: 1) Maintenance personnel should strictly implement the daily and periodical routine check; Keep detailed records without any careless omissions. 2) Maintenance personnel should guarantee the security, the tidiness, and the fitness of temperature/humidity of the equipment room

environment. 3) Maintenance personnel should strictly follow the equipment-operation regulations; Whatever operations and activities (such as arbitrary plug/unplug, reset, initialization, equipment switch-off, data modification, etc.) not included in the daily maintenance scope are all absolutely forbidden. Be sure to wear anti-static wrist straps before touching the hardware system. Ruined or spare parts should be put in the anti-static bags, classified, labeled and stored in safe places. 4) The person in charge of the equipment room maintenance predominates the users account, password and authority used to log on the local O&M console and the network management system. He assigns users account, password and authority to related maintenance personnel according to the authorities and responsibilities specified to the maintenance personnel. 5) Once problems and troubles are detected, the maintenance personnel should take measures immediately to get rid of them. If encountering more serious problems, maintenance personnel should notify it to related executives, and contact local offices of ZTE Corporation for urgent solutions, and keep detailed records afterwards. 6) Maintenance personnel should receive necessary trainings before on duty. Different technical personnel are put in different positions varying with technical grades. 7) Periodically examine and calibrate those common-use tools and instruments to ensure they are in good condition. The equipment room is recommended to have tools and instruments prepared as follows: A Preferable tools and auxiliary materials are recommended as follows: flat-pin/cross-pin screwdrivers, diagonal pliers, nipper pliers, wire strippers, unpacking pliers, electric irons, chip extractors, tweezers, spanners, electric drivers, tape measures, insulating rubberized fabrics, binding strips, etc. B Standby meters are recommended as follows: multi-meter, thermometer, hygrometer, optical power meter, signaling meter,

1.2.1

Routine Maintenance
Daily Routine Maintenance Daily routine maintenance is to check the running condition of the equipment. 1. Querying Alarm Information By means of faults management system in the ZXG10-OMCR (VB O&M system, the supervision of the entire ZXG10-BSS (VB operation status is enabled. Equipment room watchers should examine site alarms, rack alarms or other alarms via alarm inquiry window, record them in detail and keep constant contact with technical personnel so as to locate and resolve troubles. Refer to ZXG10-BSC (VB Base Station Controller Operation Manual for methods related to alarm information inquiry. 2. Module Running Status View the indicator lights of each module on the rack to see whether their display is all right (See Section 3. B; if any of the alarm lights is on, contact technical personnel immediately so as to relocate and resolve troubles.

1.2.2

Periodical Routine Maintenance 1. Check BSC modules Check the amount, type and version of standing modules once week; make sure their storage conditions comply with requirements; the amount is sufficient and easily available. Remember to check the exchanges and repairs of faulty modules as well.
Page 3 of 106

Maintenance Manual of ZXG10-BSC(V2)

2. Faults statistics Make statistics of faulty modules in detail every week. 3. Hardware test: check once a month. 1) Check whether the power lines are connected stably; Make sure the wires are rusty yet. Check whether the grounding lines are connected stably; Make sure the wires are not rusty yet. Periodically check the system-connecting wires to make sure there are no weighty objects laying over them, thus preventing the wires from damages.

2)

3)

4. Transmission Check the connectors of transmission wires between optical terminals, from the microwave rack to the BSC rack to make sure they still remain fixed without twisted, extruded, distorted or tightened. Test the standing port.

1.3

Emergent Maintenance
Emergent maintenance refers to the immediate measures necessary for dealing with sudden failures of ZXG10-BSC (VB equipment. As the sudden failures turn up unexpectedly and usually have serious effect on the service quality, decisive and cautious processing by maintenance personnel are rather important. Also, detailed records are kept afterwards to serve as reference for avoiding similar troubles in days to come.

In general cases, the processing flow and the processing measures of sudden failures can be classified as follows: 1. Sudden failures and disasters in equipment room 1) Primary faults Power supply system failure; Flood and Fire; Air-conditioning system failure, as a result, temperature and humidity severely exceeds the standard specifications.
Page 4 of 106

Maintenance Manual of ZXG10-BSC(V2)

2) Maintenance measures After viewing the alarm message from the OMCR system of BSS the subsystem, check the equipment room environment immediately, locate the fault and confirm the reason, rapidly resolve the fault and notify it to the higher-level executives. Keep detailed records to help clear out the hidden troubles. 2. Sudden failures of equipment itself 1) Primary faults Include hardware parts, such as damages, designated positions unavailable, poor contact found in modules and unit module. Also included are software parts like disordered data or programs, etc. 2) Maintenance measures
A

Via plug/unplug, partial problems such as designated position unavailable and poor contact can be solved. Or by means of replacement or isolation, you estimate the damages of hardware. Data disorder can be inquired and corrected via operation in the OMCR system of the BSS base station controller subsystem

B Software/ hardware faulty phenomena are quite complicated. If problems remain unresolved even though simple measures listed above have already been taken, please contact technical personnel or local offices of ZTE immediately and notify it to related executives at the same time. Keep records in detail afterwards so as to help clear out similar hidden troubles in the days to come.

1.4

Common Maintenance Measures


In daily maintenance, common measures are classified as follows: 1. Observation This is mainly to locate the trouble via viewing the alarm message from the OMCR management terminal. Observation is a first-of-all method that
Page 5 of 106

Maintenance Manual of ZXG10-BSC(V2)

the maintenance personnel use when encountering troubles. The correct judging of the observed result is a key factor of correctly analyzing and resolving problems. Therefore, maintenance personnel must be quite familiar with indicator lights on each module and be fully aware of the meanings of alarm information at different levels displayed on the management terminal. 2. Plug/unplug At the very beginning of finding faults in a certain module, unclose the fastener on the front panel, then plug/unplug the connector between the module and the external interface so as to remove the faults resulting from improper contact or processor abnormality. 3. Replacement Using a functionally proper module to replace the module to be checked to confirm whether the latter has gone wrong. If plug-unplug method doesnt work, choose the replacement way.
Warning: When plugging/unplugging/replacing modules, refer to Appendix A for cautious items and operation procedures in the case of replacing boards and components.

4. Isolation If only partial system has gone wrong, you isolate this part from related modules or racks to judge whether the fault results from interaction between then. The common isolation way is to self-loop the in/output interface of a certain module so as to isolate and remove the problems of the related system. 5. Self-test When the system or module is powered on again, judge if there is any fault y way of self-test. In normal cases, when a module is powered on and self tested, the indicator lights on its panel will flash regularly. This way will tell whether the module itself is faulty. 6. Press Turn off the power and then press the cable connectors. This will help remove the troubles resulting from improper contact.

Troubleshooting
Alarm Information and Handling
The ZXG10-OMCR (VB fault management system monitors the entire running status of ZXGQO-BSS (VB system in concentrative mode, by testing, notifying and processing the abnormal happenings of telecom networks and environments. These functions are realized via fault alarm and fault diagnosis. The alarm management system is to locate the accurate position of the trouble. By means of relevant judging performance, the display of alarm on the user end interface is enabled, realizing the real-time notification of actual alarms. In terms of real-time property, the alarm issue method is divided into general notification and emergent notification. The former merely indicates the unrepeatable or instantaneous troubles arising while the system is running. Usually, if the notification of this kind of troubles is not so frequent, that means this trouble might be caused by accidentally environmental factors, and the maintenance personnel do not need any processing actions; however, if the notification becomes frequent and even long-playing, it tells that the maintenance personnel must immediately locate the reason and solve it in time. The alarm may last for some time, so, it usually affects the normal services, maintenance and running reliability of the system in different degrees; the alarm can be divided into four levels varying with severity as follows: Principles of rating four levels of alarm are listed in Table 2-1:

Running Information Classification


The ZXG10-BSC (VB running information is originated from the panel indicator lights on such modules as MP, COMM. By giving different definitions to the display of indicator lights, the running status of equipment can be located. Please refer to relevant maintenance manuals for the running information of BTSMBBS21 and OBTS . Based on the board types, the running information can be classified into six types as follows: control layer board, network switching layer board, TC unit, GPRSPP board, power supply board, and other boards.

2.9

Running Information of Each Board


In the following, the fast on/out of indicator lights are defined as 5 times per second, namely the interval between on and out of the indicator lights is 100ms. The slow flash takes place once per second, namely the interval between on and out of the lights is 500ms. Unless specially noted, the indicator lights, switches on the panel are orderly arrayed from the top to the bottom, numbered in 1, 2, 3

Appendix A Replacement of Boards and Components


A.1 Overview
In daily maintenance operation, replacing faulty boards is a common and also an important maintenance mode. When replacing boards, the maintenance personnel are recommended to contact relevant technical professionals or the local office personnel of ZTE Corporation so as to get technical instructions. In the process of replacing boards, it is necessary to follow rules as follows: 1. In the usual time, the unopened spare parts should be kept in antistatic packages (Drier bags are preferred inside the bag) classified and saved in cartons. Types and models should be labeled clearly on the antistatic bags or cartons for the convenience of identification. 2. Wear antistatic wrist straps before plugging/unplugging boards. When holding boards in hand, be cautious enough to keep away from circuits, components, connection slots, etc. Never overexert yourself when you plug/unplug boards so as to prevent from distorting boards or the pins and slots on the backplane. 3. The removed faulty boards should be labeled with fault causes before put into the antistatic bags and should be kept in classification. 4. After the faulty boards are removed, if no spare parts are available at the moment, put an idle dam board onto the vacant position in order to keep clear of dust or play an ornate role. 5. Make sure to mount the module into its position.

6. Hot plug/unplug operation is strictly prohibited when replacing power boards or MP.

Procedures of Replacing Public Boards


Preparations before replacement
Page 100 of 106

Maintenance Manual of ZXG10-BSC(V2)

1)

By observing and analyzing errors, locate the faulty boards and replace them. Make sure that spare parts are functionally intact and their models comply with the faulty boards. A sufficient provision of antistatic bags, drier bags and assorted cartons is available for convenience of labeling faulty components. Replacement procedures Wear antistatic wrist straps. When using the standby board to replace the active board, perform the active/standby changeover first so as to enable the standby board to be in active status beforehand. Using one hand to forcefully turn the fastener on the faulty board outwards and downwards; when the board is removed from the insertion slot and flip outwards, you use the other hand to hold the lower edge of the board and then gently pull the board out from its slot. In the process of this operation, you should try your best to avoid contacting the parts and circuits on the board Put the removed faulty boards into the antistatic bags with drier bags and label them clearly according to their models, attributed slots, program versions and words fault. Put the faulty boards in the cartons in category and label them clearly on the cover of the cartons so as not to confuse them next time. First aim at the slot labeled on the insertion box in line with the spare board name, then use the thumb to press the fastener on the circuit board and push the circuit into the slot with average force until the fastener locks it up. This shows the circuit board has reached its position. If the active board is to be replaced, perform another active/standby changeover after the replacement is over, thus enabling the new board to run in active status. Confirmation after replacement

Maintenance Manual of ZXG10-BSC(V2)

When the circuit board is freshly inserted, there will be a self-test process lasting for some time. If the self-test succeeds, the indicator lights will be in normal status; if services operation recovers, it becomes a symbol of replacement success. For more information on how to distinguish the display status of indicator lights, read Chapter 3 in this manual. If the self-test fails in that the self-test proceeds continuously or indicates abnormality and the related unit has not recovered its services, this shows the replacement fails. Check and confirm whether the spare board is damaged or whether the fault is on other boards instead of on this one. Locate the fault by observing the alarm of fore/background.

A.3

Replacement of Other Components


In most cases, the components here refer to the whole layer shelf or the backplane. The office party and the related technical personnel should acknowledge the replacement operation beforehand. 1. Preparations before replacement Preparations to be made are the same as those before the replacement of public boards. Read A.2 for more details. 2. 1) 2) Procedures of replacing shelves and backplanes Wear wrist straps and turn off power supply system. Write down the specific boards and their corresponding slots and remove all the boards at this layer. Write down the slots and positions where cables are located, remove all the cables connected at the backplane, including the 38 cable and the 6-chip POWP cables on both sides. Remove the front door from t he rack and be careful to put it down lightly. Loosen the 4 screws on the shelf of this layer by starting from the front of the shelf. Pull out the shelf out from the front. Remove the backplane of the this layer after unscrewing it.

7)

Mount the new backplane onto the idle shelf (or install the backplane onto the new shelf). Make sure not to reverse the top/bottom directions of the backplane. Exactly in the same manner as the removed backplane, install the short circuit chip on the left and right sides of the new backplane. If the 38 cable lock chip is unavailable on the 96-core socket of the new backplane, install the cable lock chip onto it in exactly the same manner as is with the old backpane. Mount the shelf with new backplane onto the rack. Put back the front door of the rack. Based on the previous records, connect the power supply lines to the corresponding cables on the backplane. Be careful with the two (left/right) directions of the 38 cable. Merely the left or the right of the two directions can be locked if inserted by a lock chip, so does the 6-core power supply cable. Only one of its directions (left and right) can be inserted. If it fails, you try the other direction. Insert each board corresponding to the recorded slots. In the process of this operation, you should try your best to avoid contacting the parts and circuits on the board Be sure the cable connections and board slots are inerrable. Warning: MP s power supply is 48V. Other boards will be burnt if inserted to the MP slot.

Power on the rack and initiate the system. Confirmation after replacement

There will be a self-test process lasting for some time before the system powers on after the replacement, MP initiation, board version loading and version running takes place respectively. If the self-test succeeds, the indicator lights will be in normal status. If services operation recovers, it symbolizes the replacement success. For more information on how to distinguish the display status of indicator lights, read Chapter 3 in this manual. If the self-test fails in that the self-test proceeds continuously or
