The sitefolders include installation, commissioning, and integration check lists. The exactcontents of the site folders are defined by the customer.It is the responsibility of the customer to maintain and archive site-specificdocuments.2.1.1 Fault reportingWhere possible, correct all damage, failures, and faults and report them to Nokiausing the Failure Report Form provided by Nokia Customer Services.You can save the alarm information to a log file on your PC with Nokia BTSManager.2.2 Maintenance equipmentCheck which tools are needed for the type of maintenance being done. Forinformation on the tools required, refer to Nokia MetroSite EDGE Base Station:Requirements for Installation and Operation.Always take the BTS key, antistatic wrist strap, and Nokia BTS Manager laptopPC and LMP cable with you for BTS maintenance operations.
Maintenance14 (52) © Nokia Corporation Draft DN9913495Nokia Proprietary and Confidential Issue 3-0 enWARNING2.2.1 Nokia BTS ManagerWhen replacing or adding units, Nokia BTS Manager software is used for localmanagement of the BTS. Instructions for running specific maintenanceoperations with Nokia BTS Manager are included in the relevant sections of thisdocument.For more general information on using Nokia BTS Manager, refer to NokiaMetroSite EDGE Base Station: Commissioning.2.3 Environmental precautionsWhen the cover of the Nokia MetroSite EDGE Base Station is removed to allowfor maintenance work, the following conditions must be considered:1. Rain or snow must not be allowed to fall on the internal surfaces of theequipment.2. The cover must not be removed during conditions where dust can be blowninto the cabinet.2.4 Power supply precautionsPotentially lethal voltages!The BTS power must be switched OFF at the main disconnect device orcircuit breaker before starting maintenance work which involves the risk ofelectric shocks.When working inside the BTS cabinet, prevent injury to personnel or damage tothe BTS equipment by following the requirements presented in Table .

Periodic maintenanceDN9913495 © Nokia Corporation Draft 17 (52)Issue 3-0 en Nokia Proprietary and ConfidentialCautionCaution3Periodic maintenanceThis chapter describes the periodic maintenance of the MetroSite EDGE BaseStation.3.1 Maintaining the cabinetThis section describes the cabinet maintenance measures.3.1.1 Fan unit and air circulationThe fan unit must be cleaned of leaves and debris whenever necessary. Tomaintain proper circulation of air through the cabinet, air inlets and outlets mustnot be obstructed.3.1.2 CoverClean the BTS cover of stains and dust whenever necessary. Wipe the surface ofthe cover with a piece of cloth moistened with water and a washing agent.Do not use any washing agents that contain alkalis, esters, ketones, or aromatic,chlorinated, or fluorinated hydrocarbons, since these may damage the cover.Washing agents containing these chemicals can only be used if approved by themanufacturer for cleaning polycarbonate objects.Do not spill any water or chemicals inside the cover.
Maintenance18 (52) © Nokia Corporation Draft DN9913495Nokia Proprietary and Confidential Issue 3-0 en3.1.3 SealsWipe the BTS seals (seal on the lower edge of the BTS, under the cover)whenever they are dirty. The cleaning interval depends on the environment.Check the visible seals during every site visit. If the seals are dirty, wipe themclean with a piece of cloth. Replace worn or broken seals.3.1.4 LockLubricate the lock during site visits with lubricating oil. If the cabinet is used intemperatures below 0ºC (32ºF), lubricate the lock with lubricating anti-freeze oilor use both anti-freeze oil and lubricating oil.3.2 Periodic testing of the BTSThe condition of the hardware in the MetroSite EDGE BTS can be testedperiodically by running the Abis loop test and the TRX test remotely from theBSC/NMS. A TRX test can also be run locally with Nokia BTS Manager.
Adjusting the 13 MHz clockDN9913495 © Nokia Corporation Draft 19 (52)Issue 3-0 en Nokia Proprietary and ConfidentialNote4Adjusting the 13 MHz clockThe 13 MHz clock is adjusted using the Nokia BTS Manager PC and a frequencycounter.The 13 MHz clock should only need adjusting after a new installation or when theinterface unit (VIFA) is replaced.Before commencing the adjustment procedure, switch ON the frequency counterand allow for a stabilising time of about 15 minutes, or as recommended by theinstrument’s manufacturer.Use only a high stability frequency counter for this procedure.Adjusting the 13 MHz clock1. Remove the rubber dust shield from the side of the interface unit.2. Connect the frequency counter to the X7 connector on the interface unit(first socket from the front). See Figure 2.3. Connect the Nokia BTS Manager laptop PC to the LMP port of theinterface unit. See Figure 2.

TroubleshootingDN9913495 © Nokia Corporation Draft 23 (52)Issue 3-0 en Nokia Proprietary and ConfidentialNoteNote5TroubleshootingThis chapter gives advice on how to identify and rectify possible faults in theoperation of the Nokia MetroSite EDGE Base Station.Troubleshooting instructions related to BTS commissioning are given in NokiaMetroSite EDGE Base Station: Commissioning.Detailed descriptions of BTS alarms are presented in Nokia MetroSite EDGEBase Station: Alarm Descriptions. Descriptions of the LED unit status indicatorsare presented in Chapter 7 of this document.Whenever problems occur in the operation of the BTS, connect the Nokia BTSManager PC to the interface unit. The LED conditions and the alarm windowusually indicate where and what the problem is. To obtain more information onthe BTS’s status, it is also advisable to be in contact with the BSC by mobilephone (MS).5.1 Testing the BTSIf there is any reason to assume that the quality of calls in a cell is degraded, orthat the number of calls in a cell is reduced, the Abis loop test and the TRX testcan be run remotely from the BSC/NMS. A TRX test can also be run locally withNokia BTS Manager.Further troubleshooting tests can also be done locally at the BTS. See theTroubleshooting checklist in Section 5.2 of this document and the LED indicatorconditions reference information in Chapter 7 of this document.

Maintenance40 (52) © Nokia Corporation Draft DN9913495Nokia Proprietary and Confidential Issue 3-0 enNoteWARNING6.8 Replacing the cooling fanThe fan unit and its controller module are inside the fan mounting assembly onthe bottom of the BTS cabinet. For maintenance, the fan unit and controllermodule can be removed and replaced in the mounting assembly. The proceduresfor doing this are given here.Alternatively, the complete fan assembly can be removed and replaced. Theprocedures for doing this are given in the document Nokia MetroSite EDGE BaseStation: Field Upgrade.For Nokia MetroSite BTSs with 1W TRXs, refer to Nokia MetroSite EDGE BaseStation: Field Upgrade. This document gives instructions for replacing theVMFA type fan unit.There are two versions of the HVMF fan unit. Version 1 has a controller modulewhich is fixed by tapper screws which are accessed from the top of the fanmounting (see Figure 12). Version 2 has a controller module which can beremoved by accessing the tapper screws from the bottom of the fan mounting (seeFigure 13).The BTS power must be switched off before replacing the fan unit. Turn theswitch on the PSU to the stand-by position and turn off the power supply atthe main circuit breaker.6.8.1 Replacing the HVMF cooling fan, version 1In order to release version 1 of the fan unit’s controller module, the fan assemblymounting must be removed from the bottom of the cabinet. To do this, the cableentry block must first be removed.Figure 11 shows the HVMF fan assembly. For an exploded view of the fanassembly, see Figure 12.Releasing the cabling from the cable entry block1. Make sure that the PSU is switched to the stand-by position and that thepower to the BTS is switched off at the main circuit breaker.
