4.1.6 Checking Power-on/Power-off of BTS
Purpose
To ensure BBU and RRU can work normally.
Procedure (BBU)
1. Power-on Procedure:
1. Plug out all of the boards of B8200 carefully, and keep the PM (power module)
in the slot.
2. After the BTS is powered on, check whether the “RUN” indicator of the PM
module is ON, and the “ALM” indicator is OFF.
3. Check whether the FAN module is running normally (the “PWR” indicator is
ON, and the “ALM” indicator is OFF. If the FAN module is in normal operation,
please insert the CC, BPC, UBPG, FS and SA one by one.
2. Power-off Procedure:
1. Shut down the power supply system directly.
Reference
After the PM module or any board is just powered on, the “ALM” indicator flashes,
which shows the board has not been started. If the SA board is not inserted, the
“ALM” indicator on the FA panel will be ON. Hot plug-out/in of the power cables is
forbidden.
The handle bar on the left of a board has three gears, and that on the right is fixed.
Please gear the handle bar to the outmost before plugging out the board, and gear
the handle bar to the inmost before plugging in the board.
To remove the fan subrack, firstly please push the lock-switch on the panel on the
right before plugging out the fan subrack.
Procedure (RRU)
1. Power-on Procedure:
1. Special power cables have been delivered together with the RRU to connect
with -48VDC power cabinet or AC power cabinet. Please ensure the power
cables and PGND cables are correctly connected before using the fuse.
2. Power-off Procedure:
1. Shut down the power supply of RRU:
− When the RRU is installed indoors, switch off the RRU air-switch of the
AC/DC power distribution box;
− When the RRU is installed outdoors, switch off the RRU air-switch of the
indoor/outdoor DC lightning protection box;
Note:
After all of the above procedure, the BTS commissioning engineer should feed back
the BTS status to the iBSC&RNC commissioning engineer, who will then conduct
version upgrade and data synchronization accordingly. Follow-up operations are not
allowed until the iBSC&RNC commissioning engineer completes the job and sends
a notice.
Ensure that the iBSC&RNC has finished BTS version upgrade and data
synchronization before the subsequent procedures.
4.1.7 Checking BTS Running Status
Prerequisites
1. SDR version is completely loaded.
2. SDR data synchronization between foreground and background is completed.
3. SDR is reset and restarted normally.
Purpose
1. To make sure BTS hardware work normally.
2. To make sure the current versions in the BTS are correct.
3. To make sure SDR data synchronization between foreground and background is

completed.
Procedure (BBU)
1. After the BTS is reset and restarted, all of the boards can resume working normally
in 5 minutes.
2. Check the status of indicators on the boards according to Table 4 -13.
3. Contact the BSC engineer to check the running status of the current version.
4. Contact the BSC engineer to see whether the running status of BBU boards is
consistent with what the indicators show. Indicator in green means normal status.
Table 4-13 Description of B8200 Board Status in Normal Working Status
Board RUN Indicator (Green) ALM Indicator (Red)

FM Flashing at 1Hz OFF
SA Flashing at 1Hz OFF
CC Flashing at 1Hz OFF
FS Flashing at 1Hz OFF
UBPG Flashing at 1Hz OFF
FA module Flashing at 1Hz OFF
Reference
When the BTS is restarted and reset, “ALM” indicators of PM and the boards may
keep flashing for a while. It is a normal status because the boards have not been
started.
If the board indicators are in abnormal status, please contact the iBSC&RNC
commissioning engineer for help.
Procedure (RRU)
1. After the BTS is reset and restarted, RRU resumes working normally in 10 minutes;
2. Contact BSC engineer to see whether the RRU boards work normally in OMC.
Indicator in green means normal status.
Warning:
It is forbidden to open the front panel of RRU to see its running status.
