Commissionning Procedure
♦ System configuration
The training deals with the commissionning procedure for LSY LHR R2 in configuration
N+1 STM1 Electrical Interface without XPIC, and Space Diversity
♦ Commissionning tests purpose

To check that equipment performance is in accordance with the technical specifications and
tolerances supplied by ALCATEL
♦ Test classification
• Station test
Local test
• Hop test
Test of the microwave link between two adjacent stations
• Section test
Quality (performance) test between two terminal station

Commissionning Procedure
♦ Tests instruments
STM1 Electrical Interface

 One digital multimeter
 Two (at least one) BER analyzers, ex ANT 5, ANT 20
 Service Channel bit rate analyzer, ex PFA 35 W&G
 1 Frequency Meter
 1 Power Meter
 Cables : 2 cables 1.0/2.3 (for physical loopback) per station , cables for BER analyzers
 1 CT loaded with Local and Remote Craft Terminal application Software at the customer release
 1 CT cable (F interface – RS232 SUDB9)

Commissionning Procedure - Local Tests
♦ System Hardware Configuration
- SYSCO and MODEM Boards in theory, already configured in the factory

SYSCO – I1 settings
SYSCO – I4 settings

♦ Switch I4: Main configuration

♦ Switch I1: Equipement configuration:
 SD: Space diversity
 SRBBN1: Subrack BaseBande N+1
 SRBBN0: Subrack BaseBande N+0
Example: LSY LHR (the main configuration) 3+1 without Space diversity STM1
1 1
0 (LHR) N+1, STM-1, no Space Diversity
0 0
0 1
0
0 0
0 0
0 0
0 0

Switch position on Modem Board (in general case)

♦ Switch I1
 Dipswitch 1:
- On(0) : if you use the daughter board for XPIC
- Off(1) : If you use the daughter board for Diversity
Nota: If you have no daughter board, the position of this switch will have no importance
 Dipswitch 2:
- On(0) : The carrier frequency isn’t modulated (you send only the carry
frequency, so you can see in reception, on the other side, if you have an
interference) => only for maintenance test!!!
- Off(1) : The carrier frequency is modulated ( it is always the case)
 Dipswitch 3 & 4 : Always on « OFF » (1) - Factory option -

♦ Switch I2:
 Dipswitch 1: For XPIC Configuration
- On(0) : Modulator is working in polarisation H
- Off(1) : Modulator is working in polarisation V
Nota: When you don’t have XPIC, it is better to have the same configuration for
all demodulators and modulators in the two sites!!
 Dipswitch 2: For XPIC Configuration
- On(0) : Demodulator is working in polarisation H
- Off(1) : Demodulator is working in polarisation V
 Dipswitch 3 & 4 : Always on « OFF » (1) - Factory option –
♦ Switch I3: Factory use only

 Powering up the station
• Check the serial numbers of the boards with the Remote Inventory (CT):
=> Supervision => Upload remote Inventory (refresh the remote Inventory)
 Diagnosis => View remote Inventory
 A file .txt is created, and you can save it

♦ Channel frequency checks
 Radio => Frequency

 Compare Tx Frequency and Rx Frequency in order
to see if they are in the Upper Half or Lower Half of the Band
Ex: Rx=8.1 GHz > Tx = 7.8 GHz
=> Tx in the Upper Half of the band

Rx Frequency Measurement
(1) Connect a frequency meter at J7 input to mesure the Rx Frequency

(2) You see Frequency measured = F (Hz)
Calculate:
Real Rx Frequency = 2 * F(Hz) + 140 Mhz if you are measuring an
« Upper Half of the Band » Frequency. (see page 61)
Real Rx Frequency = 2 * F(Hz) - 140 Mhz if you are measuring an
« Lower Half of the Band » Frequency.
Frequency Meter

Tx Frequency Measurement
(1) Connect a frequency meter at J8 input to mesure the Tx Frequency

(2) You see Frequency measured = F (Hz)
Calculate:
Real Tx Frequency = 2 * F(Hz) + 140 Mhz if you are measuring an
« Upper Half of the Band » Frequency. (see page 61)
Real Tx Frequency = 2 * F(Hz) - 140 Mhz if you are measuring an
« Lower Half of the Band » Frequency.
Frequency Meter

Results Sheet
1 ppm = F/106
For F = 8 Ghz , 1ppm = 8. 109 / 106 = 8.103 = 8 kHz
Thus, if Tolerance is equal to +/- 10ppm, Tolerance = +/- 80 kHz

RT Switch configuration
Switch position on Transceiver Board

TX:Switch I3 RX:Switch I5
0 = « On » = « Closed »
1 = « Off » = « Open »
ON or « 0 »

♦ Switch 1,2,3,4,5 on I3 – I5 are used to select number of the channel in the Frequency
Plan (refer to Technical Handbook Section 3)
Exemple: Transceiver working in Tx = 6197,24Mhz and Rx = 5945,20Mhz for the

channel 3:

♦ It is exactly the same configuration for Dipswitch 1,2,3,4,5 on I3 and I5 because it is the
same channel of the Frequency Plan
♦ For Dipswitchs 6 and 7: They have to be the opposites

To configure a frequency in the « Upper Half of the Band » , Set switch 6 : OFF
and switch 7: ON (I3 or I5)
To configure a frequency in the « Lower Half of the Band » , Set switch 6 : ON
and switch 7: OFF (I3 or I5)

Exemple: Transceiver working in Tx = 6197,24Mhz and Rx = 5945,20Mhz for the

channel 3:
on off off on
FTx is in the « Upper Half of the Band » => Dip 6= 1(off), and Dip 7 =0(on)
FRx is in the « Lower Half of the Band » => Dip 6= 0(on), and Dip 7 =1(off)
♦Dipswitch number 8 is always Off(1)

Switch I2
♦ Dipswitch 1: Set « Off » (1) if you have diversity Receiver or « On » (0) if you have no
diversity
♦ Dipswitch 2: Set « On » (0) to be able to configure the frequency manually on the
transceiver (It is generally the case)
♦ Dipswitch 3:
Set « Off » (1) to configure the OL RX in MASTER with XPIC function ( This OL will
send the reference to the other OL which will be configure in SLAVE).
Note: Without XPIC function, all OL are configured in MASTER
Set « On » (0) to configure the OL RX in SLAVE with XPIC function ( This OL will
receive the reference from the other OL which will be configure in MASTER).
♦ Dipswitch 4: Never change this dipswitch

Transmit Power control
♦ Calibrate the Power Meter
(1) Zeroing => Erase the last configuration
(2) Calibrate => Connect your cable to the 0 dbm signal output
(3) Send the 0 dBm signal
(4) Check you can see a 0 dBm value
♦ Real Tx Power Measurement
(1) Connect your Power Meter at J14 with the Power
Sensor with attenuator if necessary
(2) Do the measurement
♦ Monitoring Tx Power Measurement
(1) Connect your Power Meter at J13 with the Power
Sensor with attenuator if necessary
(2) Do the measurement and Add +30dBm you have to find
the real Tx Power Value

So you have: at Preference – Att => BER1 (xx.10-8, for example)
Mark this point on your BER Curves:
For 1.10-8 BER you are at Pref – Att = -50 – 21 dB

(5) Add attenuation in order to have your second BER Alarm on your SDH Analyzer
(6) Mark the second Point on your BER Curves at This new Received Power Value
(7) Repeat Operation (5) and (6) in order to have 4 or 5 points.
(8) Trace your curve
In case of No Diversity ,
you curve has to be in the
left side of the Main/Div
Reference Curve
