2. INTRODUCTION
2.1. PURPOSE

Cellular telephone systems transmit signals in two directions between base
transceiver station (BTS) and mobile stations (MS) within the signal coverage area.

If weak signal transmissions occur within the coverage area because of indoor
applications, topological conditions or distance from the transmitter, a repeater is
used to extend transmission range. In the downlink (DL) path, the repeater picks up
signals from a donor antenna of an existing cell, processes and retransmits them into
the desired dark spot. In the uplink (UL) direction, the repeater receives signals from
mobile stations present in its coverage area and forwards them to the corresponding
BTS.

The corresponding counterpart is the MR351 Remote, which is subject of a separate
manual (M0029A0).

2.2. THE MR351 BTS

The MR351 BTS is part of the channel selective repeater system MR351 designed to
operate in the GSM network. The repeater system MR351 consists of two units. One
is the MR351 BTS and is located close to the BTS. Its counterpart named MR351
Remote is located close to the coverage area. The BTS unit is used to convert
required GSM channels into a new frequency in the allocated radio frequency band
of the operator. The converted channels are used as a radio link connection to the
remote unit. The MR351 Remote reconverts the GSM channels and transmits them
to the coverage area.

3. FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
3.1. GENERAL

The MR351 BTS has two amplifier chains, working bi-directionally. Both amplifier
chains, uplink path and downlink path, are connected to two duplexers providing
frequency separation. BTS downlink signals (F1) are received from the MR351 BTS
and are fed to the downlink input. After passing the duplexer, BTS downlink signals
are amplified and converted to IF by use of an integrated phase-locked oscillator.
This is done in the channel conversion units. The downconverted signals pass an IF
channel filter and are upconverted to a new frequency (F2) by use of a second
phase-locked oscillator. These signals are amplified and transmitted to the MR351
Remote unit.

Uplink signals received from the MR351 Remote unit are fed to uplink conversion
modules after passing the duplexer. Received signals (F2) are downconverted to IF
by use of an integrated phase-locked oscillator, filtered and upconverted to the
original BTS uplink channel F1. These signals are transmitted to the BTS.

The first and second phase-lock oscillators are synchronised on the BCCH channel.
This can be achieved by using a master oscillator which generates a 5 MHz signal
used by conversion modules and second oscillator units.

3.2. COMPONENTS AND FEATURES OF THE MR351 REMOTE

The actual configuration of the repeater can be seen at the configuration list, which is
part of the delivery.
3.2.1. Selectivity

The task of the duplexers is to isolate uplink from downlink, i.e., transmitting path
from receiving path. The pass-bandwidth of the duplexers is the entire width of the
uplink band and the downlink band respectively. The selectivity of the conversion
modules is achieved by highly selective filters designed to meet the requirements of
a 200 kHz channel or of bands specified by the customer.

3.2.2. Measuring Aids

A 30 dB coupler has been provided at each antenna connection (part of the
duplexer). This facilitates measuring under all operational conditions while an
antenna or a dummy load may be connected.

3.2.3. Gain Setting

The gain can be set by adjusting the attenuation in the amplifier chain. For local
parameter adjustment to set the gain, use the DIP-switches of the conversion
modules. For remote control a modem can be used. The control module may be
accessed locally by means of a VT100 terminal or via a personal computer emulating
the VT100 terminal. Chapter 5.2 deals specifically with the setting of operational
parameters.
3 Functional Description

ID No: 146797 Page 15

3.2.4. ALC

In order to protect the final amplifiers from overload and to prevent the system from
generating spurious emission, the final amplifiers have an Automatic Level Control,
designed to limit the output power in the downlink to a defined level. A part of the
output power is decoupled, rectified, amplified and used to control an attenuator
network in the conversion modules. In order to avoid oscillation, the control amplifier
has an integrating characteristic.

The repeaters of the 351 series have time constants of approximately 3 msec which
is longer than a GSM time slot. This affects the output power of signals in adjacent
time slots.

The 351 series can be delivered with different options of time constants. The user
may specify a suitable time constant for rise and a suitable time constant for decay
as necessary for his requirements, e.g. 500 sec for rise and 1 sec for decay.

3.2.5. Power Supply

The power supply is provided by the 230 Vac mains power (optionally available are
48 Vdc and 24 Vdc). In the centre of the power supply a power socket can be found.
Please note however that the current draw is limited.

3.2.6. Optional Modem

The modem option enables the provider to set parameters and to query the status of
each repeater by remote control. Furthermore, the modem can be set to send all
alarms occurred in the repeater directly to a providers terminal, e.g. to the OMC.

Check the communication mode between the modem and the terminal. If
necessary, set the following parameters:

Bit rate / bit per second: 9600 baud Number of data bit: 8 bit
Parity bit: No parity Stopbit: 1 stopbit

These settings can only be changed after connection to the terminal. If a different
modem is required or if the quality of the line does not allow using the set
parameters, the settings have to be changed in PC mode. The same applies for all
other parameters which can be set previously for modem mode by software.

4. INSTALLATION
4.1. MECHANICAL INSTALLATION
4.1.1. General

Read the health and safety warnings in chapter 1.2 Health and Safety Warnings.
1. Do not install the unit in a way or at a place where the specifications
outlined in the Environmental and Safety Specifications leaflet of the
supplier are not met.
2. It is recommended only to use the mounting hardware delivered by Mikom.
If different mounting hardware is used, the specifications for stationary use
of the repeater must not be exceeded.
Note: Exceeding the specified load limits may cause the loss of warranty.
3. The unit is considerably heavy. Make sure that a suitable mounting
surface is used. Ensure there is adequate manpower to handle the weight of
the system.
4. Due to power dissipation, the repeater may reach a very high temperature.
Ensure sufficient airflow for ventilation. It is necessary to mount the
repeater vertically to a wall or a mast without additional enclosure and a
clearance of one metre to the sides, above and below. Between the housing
and the wall, a minimum distance of 20 mm must be kept.

If any different or additional mounting material is used, ensure that the mounting
remains as safe as the mounting designed by Mikom. Ensure that the static and
dynamic strengths are adequate for the environmental conditions of the site. The
mounting itself must not vibrate, swing or move in any way that might cause damage
to the repeater.

4.1.2. Mounting Procedure

The housing is hung vertically into a mounting bracket, which has to be mounted first.
For dimensions refer to figure 8-1 Cabinet of MR351 BTS. Make sure that the
electrical connections are freely accessible and that the allowed bending radius of
the connected cables will not be exceeded.

To mount the unit, drill of four mounting holes, and fasten the unit with four screws
M6 to M10. Keep in mind that the repeater has to be installed without any additional
cover and airflow through the cooling ribs must be guaranteed.

Furthermore, the repeater shall be mounted in a way that there is free access to its
individual modules when the repeater door is open.


Users Manual for MR351 BTS

4.2. ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION
4.2.1. General

Read the health and safety warnings in chapter 1.2 Health and Safety Warnings.
1. This unit contains dangerous voltages. Loss of life, severe personal injury
or property damage can be the result if the instructions contained in this
manual are not followed.
2. It is compulsory to ground the unit before connecting power supply. A
grounding bolt is provided on the cabinet to connect the ground bonding
cable.
3. Although the repeater is internally protected against overvoltage, it is
strongly recommended to earth the antenna cables close to the repeaters
antenna connectors for protection against atmospheric discharge. In areas
with strong lightning it is strongly recommended to insert additional
lightning protection.
4. Hard wired installation of mains supply for the repeater requires an easil y
accessible separation device in the mains circuit.
5. Make sure that an appropriate circuit breaker and an overcurrent limiting
device are connected between mains and repeater.
6. A connection of mains supply to a power socket requires the power socket
to be nearby the repeater.
7. The repeater might be supplied from IT mains. (The maximum nominal line
to line voltage must not exceed 400VAC).
8. Incorrectly wired connections can destroy electrical and electronic
components.
9. To avoid corrosion at the connectors caused by electrochemical processes,
the material of the cable connectors must not cause a higher potential
difference than 0.6V (see electrochemical contact series).
10. It is sufficient to tighten the 7/16 or N antenna connector hand-screwed. Any
use of a tool (e.g. pair of pliers) might cause damage to the connector and
thus lead to malfunctioning of the repeater.
11. For unstabilized electric networks which frequently generate spikes, it is
advised to use a voltage limiting device.
12. The unit complies with the surge requirement according to EN 61000-4-5
(fine protection); however, it is recommended to install an additional
medium (via local supply connection) and/or coarse protection (external
surge protection) depending on the individual application in order to avoid
damage caused by overcurrent.
13. Observe the labels on the front panels before connecting any cables.
4 Installation

ID No: 146797 Page 19

4.2.2. Grounding

A grounding bolt to connect a grounding cable is provided at the bottom of the rear
panel front side.

4.2.3. Connection of the Antenna Cables

The repeater has two female antenna connectors 7/16 or N-type. For mounting the
corresponding cable connectors, it is recommended refer to the applicable
documentation of the respective connector manufacturer. The bending radius of the
antenna cables must remain within the given specification at any time. This will
warrant proper system operation; otherwise changes in the electrical behaviour of the
cable might occur, which could cause malfunctions of the repeater system.

4.2.4. Connection of the Charging Controller Unit for Battery Backup

The repeater can be equipped with a charging controller unit for battery backup. The
charging unit is located inside the housing. To connect the battery, fasten the cable
from inside the battery cabinet to X2 (+) and X3 (-). Furthermore, connect the
repeater to mains supply and install the fuse in the battery cabinet. Under
disadvantageous circumstances the backup batteries are already deeply discharged,
e.g. due to a long storage time. In this case the repeater system can be switched on,
for test purposes only, by pressing the push bottom on the charging controller unit,
labelled with Start Battery. This battery operation should only be used for short test
purposes, hence the batteries might be damaged. See mounting plan and cable
assembly in chapter 8.3 Illustrations.

Note: Due to difficult installation conditions it is not recommended to
install the battery backup control module on site! The battery
backup control module has to be installed in factory.

An alternative method for battery backup, which can be easily installed on site, is
also available. A UPS, Uninterruptible Power Supply, was designed to meet all
requirements of the customer.

The following battery alarms are available from UPS.

- battery low
- battery empty
- door

For further details, please contact your supplier.

4.2.5. External Electrical Interfaces
4.2.5.1. Electrical Power

The repeater MR351 BTS is equipped with a firmly installed mains cable which is fed
into the housing through a watertight grommet. It is connected to clamp bars inside
the repeater. Due to the presence of two power supplies, the power input is fused by
2 x 2 fuses T 2,5 L 250 V. There are two more fuses for the power socket in the
middle of the power supply.

4.2.5.2. RF Connections

There are two 7/16 or N-type female antenna connectors at the outer bottom side of
the housing.

The 7/16 or N-type TX downlink connector should be connected to the antenna
system for the communication with the Remote unit. It is labelled with the TX
downlink frequency:
To/From Remote Unit:

The 7/16 or N-type TX uplink connector should be connected to the antenna system
for the communication with the Base Transceiver Station. It is labelled with the TX
uplink frequency:
To/From BTS:

In order to get access to the 30 dB couplers the housing has to be opened.

4.2.5.3. Signal Connections

The remote control interface on the control module SM 2005 can be connected with
the control cable.

In case a fixed-line modem is installed, the telephone cable is fed through a
watertight grommet at the bottom of the housing.

In case a wireless modem is installed, there are two possibilities to get access to an

be fed through a watertight grommet at the bottom of the housing. The second way is
to couple the modem signal to the antenna of the repeater by means of an additional

5. COMMISSIONING
5.1. GENERAL

Read the health and safety warnings in chapter 1.2 Health and Safety Warnings as
well as the description carefully to avoid mistakes and proceed step by step as
described.

Do not operate the repeater without termination of the antenna connections.
The termination can be achieved by connecting the antennas, a dummy load
or the 50-Ohm-terminated connection of a measuring instrument.

To ensure safety, the electrical and subsequent installations, commissioning
and maintenance activities that require the unit to be under power while open,
must only be carried out by suitably qualified personnel.

When opening the repeater, do not damage the seals on the devices inside
the repeater. Warranty void if the seals are broken.

Before bringing the repeater system into service, it is necessary to measure the
antenna isolation.

The repeater system has its maximum available gain when the attenuation is set to
zero. Due to the features of the MR351 system the maximum allowed gain on site is
40 dB above the value of the antenna isolation.

In order to check the function of the repeater system on site it is advisable to operate
the repeater system with 50 Ohm terminations. This makes it possible to set the
necessary gain and to test the set value, without the necessity of transmitting on air.

Please note: In order to avoid problems the shifted channels (F2) should be
selected in a way that they are at least 6 channels away from the
original channel (F1). See also chapter 5.3.2 Levelling Conditions and
Channel Selection Criteria for details.

5.2. SETTING OF OPERATIONAL PARAMETERS

The gain and receive channel frequency F1 of every channel module can either be
set manually, by means of DIP-switches, or remotely. A maximum of two pairs of
conversion modules can be inserted.

Transmit channel frequency F2 is set with the second oscillator module mounted
beside the channel module.

The modules can be exchanged during operation to be configured, if necessary.

The following figure shows an arrangement of conversion modules.


Users Manual for MR351 BTS

Input frequency of a conversion module is set using the integrated PLO; output
frequency is set using the second oscillator.


Conversion Module
Second Oscillator

figure 5-1 Positions of second oscillators

Uplink and Downlink modules are not interchangeable!

There are three different possibilities to set the operational parameters:

- locally/manually
- remotely via VT 100 terminal and serial interface or by use of PC and
emulation of the VT 100 terminal
- remotely via modem

The position of the switches to set the operational modes is illustrated in figure 8-2
Front panel layouts.

Conversion modules cannot be switched off by software. If a conversion module is no
longer required it has to be replaced by a termination module. If it is a channel
module it is also possible to set its frequency to an unused channel and configure it
to a maximum attenuation of 30 dB.

5 Commissioning

ID No: 146797 Page 23

5.2.1. Manual Settings

Before setting the parameters it is necessary to set all DIP-Switches to the OFF
position, first.

To set the gain, attenuation can be added to the signal path in steps of 2 dB.

Switch 1.1 16 dB Attenuation
Switch 1.2 8 dB Attenuation
Switch 1.3 4 dB Attenuation
Switch 1.4 2 dB Attenuation

Switch position OFF means attenuation on. If all switches are in position ON,
attenuation is off, i.e., the repeater has its full gain.

An example shall demonstrate this feature:
Presumed, full gain is 50 dB. The switches 1.2 (8 dB), 1.3 (4 dB), and 1.4 (2 dB) are
in position OFF. The resulting attenuation then is 14 dB. As a result, the remaining
gain of the repeater is 50 minus 14 which equals 36 dB.

The following figure shows the DIP-switch configuration of the channel module and
second oscillator.

5.2.2. Settings via Personal Computer as Terminal

Instead of manually setting operational parameters via DIP-switches on the
conversion modules it is also possible to configure them through the control module.
This can be enabled by setting the DIP-switches on the conversion module that has
to be controlled as follows: 1.5, 1.6 and 1.7 to ON and all remaining to OFF.

A VT100 Terminal or a PC with VT100 emulation can be connected to the control
module SM2005 by the control cable (9-pin to 25-pin), which is part of the delivery.

To enable the correct mode in the control module, the mode switch on the front panel
of the power supply has to be set to the left, for PC mode.

The following communication mode between control module and VT100 is initially
set.
- 9600 Baud - 8 bit - no parity -1 Stopbit -

These settings can only be changed after connection to the terminal. If all desired
settings have been carried out, and if a modem has to be used, it is advisable to
check, whether the settings comply with the capabilities of the modem, and of the
line. Modifications are possible by SET BAUD; SET PAR.

Finally, the control module has to be set to MODEM mode by switching the mode
switch to the right. Details for modem mode can be found in the following chapter.


A complete set of instructions to and messages from the control module is listed in
chapter 5.4 Instruction Set of Control Software.

5.2.3. Settings via a Modem

A Hayes compatible modem can be connected to the control module SM 2005 by a
control cable which is subject of the delivery schedule.

Optionally the wireless modem MC35 can be used. Please refer to the manual and
the installation guide of the MC35 for further information.

The mode switch on the power supply has to be switched to the right to MODEM
mode. The DIP-switches on the conversion modules have to be set as follows:
switch 1.5, 1.6 and 1.7 to ON, the remaining switches to OFF.
5 Commissioning

ID No: 146797 Page 25


The telephone line of a line-modem has to be fed through a labelled grommet in the
bottom plate of the repeater housing.

In case, the MC35 modem is installed, there are two possibilities to get access to an
antenna. If an individual modem antenna has been installed the antenna cable may
be fed through a watertight grommet at the bottom of the housing. The second way is
to couple the modem signal to the antenna of the repeater by means of an additional
coupler.

The following communication mode between control module and VT100 is initially set
for the use of a Hayes-compatible modem.

- 9600 Baud - 8 bit - no parity -1 Stopbit -

These settings can only be changed after connection of the terminal. If a different
modem has to be used or if the quality of the line does not allow using the set
parameters, the settings have to be changed in mode PC. This is the same for all
other parameters which can be set previously for modem mode as MODEM INIT
STRING and TELEPHONE NUMBERS.

Finally, the control module has to be set to MODEM mode by switching the mode
switch to the right.

A complete set of instructions to the control module and of messages from the
control module is listed in chapter 5.4 Instruction Set of Control Software.

5.3.2. Levelling Conditions and Channel Selection Criteria

When levelling and selecting the channels of the MR351 system, observe the
following:

The input power into both ports of the Remote unit must be less than -30 dBm, the
input power into the UL input port of the BTS unit must be less than -40 dBm and the
input power into the DL input port of the BTS unit must be less than -20 dBm. Not
even the wanted signal is allowed to be above this value. (These are values for the
repeater input. If the receive level is measured at the antenna, the antenna gain has
to be taken into consideration.)

Up to two adjacent channels from the original channel or link channel away have to
be at least 20 dB below the original channel or link channel. If for example the
wanted channel is channel number 65 with a signal level of -45 dBm, channels 63
and 64 (two channels below the original channel) and channels 66 and 67 (two
channels above the original channel) have to have a signal level of -65 dBm or less.

If possible, do not use the internal attenuators of the system. Hardware attenuators at
the antenna ports of the repeaters should be used instead and only fine adjusting
should be carried out with the integrated attenuation system. Especially the DL of the
BTS Unit must not be attenuated!

Please note, however, that the system should not be setup using antennas of less
gain and wider bandwidth, because good and especially narrow band donor
antennas attenuate unwanted signals. Thus, a better system performance is
achieved with narrow band high gain donor antennas and additional hardware
attenuators rather than with wide band low gain antennas without hardware
attenuators.

The shifted channels (F2 or link channel) must be selected in a way that they are at
least 6 channels away from the original channel (F1), i.e. there are at least 5 free
channels between the two channels F1 and F2.

In a two channel system the distance between the two used original channels has to
be 4 channels, i.e. there are at least 3 free channels between the two channels used.
This distance has to be kept to link channels (F2) as well. This is valid for link
channels to each other and the distance between link channel and original channel
as well.

The distance of the four (F1 and F2 of both channels) used frequencies should be
selected in a way that the distance to each other is different. If, for example, F1 of
channel 1 is set to channel 25 and F2 of channel 1 to channel 35, neither F1 nor F2
of channel 2 should be channel 15 or channel 45. The difference between F1 and F2
of channel 2 should not be 10.

5.4. INSTRUCTION SET OF CONTROL SOFTWARE

A VT100 compatible dialogue serves to communicate with the micro-computer of the
control module. A local connection to the control module can be established by
directly connecting a PC with VT100-emulation or a VT100 terminal via control cable.

For a remote connection, a modem can be interfaced on both sides. The necessary
control software is listed and described in the following.

5.4.1. Conventions

The instruction is written in capital letters, followed by selections in square brackets
to be entered.
SET NUM [x] [number] <CR>

x stands for position 1 or 2 in the telephone list
number is the telephone number to be entered. It can have up to 25 symbols

<CR> stands for Carriage return and means to press the return key on the keyboard.
Presumed, the second position in the telephone list shall get the number 2716, the
following has to be entered:
SET NUM 2 2716 <CR>

5.4.2. Instruction Modes

There are four different types of commands:
- SET commands - to change variable parameters
- GET commands - to query the status of variable parameters
- STATUS commands - to query the status of operational parameters
- ACTION commands - - to perform specific actions

5.4.3. Description of the SET Commands

SET-commands are used to set variable parameters as for example:

Repeater ID Automatic dial out on / off
Telephone numbers Baudrate
Modem init string Parity
Dial string Channel setting
Dial mode Gain setting

This string must start with the "AT" command and end with "D". In the simplest case it
is only "ATD".

To prevent the modem from waiting for the dial tone, X3 has to be inserted resulting
in ATX3D. Because this string must end with a "D" no P or T shall be used as a
suffix. The software does this automatically according to DIALMETH.

5.4.6. Action Commands

Action commands are used to perform specific actions without setting an additional
parameters:
- BYE command - to disconnect the line
- ALARMACKN - to reset the alarm autodial function
- STO SYNTH - to initialise channel modules
- VER - to get revision No. of soft- and hardware
- RES PW - switch to default password.

If an ACTION-command has not been entered correctly, SYNTAX ERROR will be
returned.

BYE, disconnect modem from telephone line
Syntax: BYE <CR >

ALARMACKN, to cancel an alarm message
Syntax: ALARMACKN <CR>
This command cancels alarm messages - the alarm relay is reset and the repeater
stops to dial the preset phone numbers.
If no modem is used (terminal operation) ALARMACKN <CR>is the only way to
cancel an alarm.

STO SYNTH, initialise channel modules
Syntax: STO SYNTH <CR >
This command is used when channel modules are removed or inserted during
operation (without hardware reset). The execution of this command programs gain
and channel settings which are stored in the battery backed RAM into the channel
modules.

VER, to get revision No. of software
Syntax: VER <CR >

RES PW, to switch to default password

Execution of this command makes the password changed by the user invalid. The
default password is now valid.
Syntax: RES PW <CR>

Note: This command can only be executed in the LOCAL (PC) mode

5.4.7. Error Messages

There are two error messages resulting from erroneous inputs.

SYNTAX ERROR

This error message will be returned if a command has been written not correctly or if
the written command does not exist. Following to the error message the computer is
ready for new inputs.

VALUE ERROR

This error message will be returned if a non-plausible value has been entered.
Possibly, the value was out of the defined range, as e.g. in case of a negative
channel number or it was not in the defined range of the character set as e.g. 19 H in
INIT STR.

5.4.8. Features

ESC-KEY

By pressing the ESC-key the last command will be repeated.

Password Alarm

If the password is entered incorrectly three times an alarm message will be released.

Status History / Del History

A listing of all alarms can be given as follows with the command STATUS HIST:

01-01--96 01:10:55: DOOR OPEN
01-01--96 01:10: 55: AMPLIFIER DL FAILURE
01-01--96 01:10: 55: DISTRIBUTOR UL FAILURE
01-01--96 01:10: 55: PWR SUPPLY FAILURE
01-01--96 01:10: 55: PWR SUPPLY FAILURE

The entry of the list can be deleted with DEL HISTORY, so that a new STATUS HIST
command gives the message "no entry". In case of a new alarm it will be entered into
the list.

6. ALARMS AND TROUBLESHOOTING
6.1. BITE AND ALARMS

The built-in test concept comprises the monitoring of the power supplies, the
operational currents in the distributor UL, the amplifier DL and the driver UL.
Furthermore, the synthesizer lock, the current consumption in the conversion
modules, the status of the door contacts, the master synthesizer and the temperature
in the control module is monitored. External contacts for alarm messages and a
password alarm are available as well.
There are three LEDs on the front panel of the conversion modules. Their indication
is independent of the operational mode of the system and of the other conversion
modules. A green LED indicates the presence of electrical power in the module. A
red LED signalises a current into the module which is too low or too high. A second
red LED signalises a synthesizer lock failure.
All these alarms are evaluated in the control module and summarised. The single
alarms and the summarised alarm can be sent to the OMC. If equipped with the
respective options, ALC as well as forward and reflected output power can be
monitored, also.
In case, a remote alarm should be required, a floating relay contact can be used.
This relay is located on the DC distributor module. The contacts are accessible via
feed throughs on the DC distributor module.
If monitored via a modem automatic dialling will generate a summary alarm
message. The operator can acknowledge the alarm message by a simple ring back
and is able to request a detailed status report afterwards.

6.2. HANDLING OF ALARMS

As soon as the software recognises a valid alarm, a message is transmitted to the
terminal.
In remote mode, via a modem, the first of two stored telephone numbers is dialled. In
case a connection cannot be established, the second telephone number is dialled. If
this is not successful, the procedure is repeated after a pre-set delay. The delay time
can be set by SET REP. Do not set any value below 5!
If the connection can be established, the alarm is signalised including time of day and
repeater ID Number.
In remote mode the alarm can be acknowledged by two methods. Depending on the
mode which has been selected by SET ALARMACKN <CR> the alarm can be
acknowledged by simply ringing back or by ringing back and typing ALARMACKN
<CR>.
If the alarm situation has meanwhile been cleared or was not interrupted, the alarm
will not be repeated. If there was an interruption of at least one second after
acknowledgement, a new alarm will be generated.

6.3. STATUS REPORT

Two instructions enable the operator to gain knowledge of the system status. GET
<CR>will be responded by a listing of all settings of the repeater. STATUS <CR>will
be responded by a listing of all individual status.

Chapter 5.4 Instruction Set of Control Software contains a complete instruction set of
the communication language between operator and processor of the control module.

6.4. TROUBLESHOOTING

In the event of a malfunction, it is always recommendable to check the status of the
antenna systems as well as the continuity of the entire cabling including connectors.
For troubleshooting, always check the status of the system via the software
commands STATUS and GET.

7. MAINTENANCE
7.1. GENERAL

Read the health and safety warnings in chapter 1.2 Health and Safety Warnings.
Note: The repeater does not require preventative maintenance
measures.
It is only recommended to replace the backup battery and - if installed - the battery
pack of the battery backup module after three years of usage as a preventive
measure. The nominal lifetime of these batteries is five years under normal
environmental conditions.
Note: The backup battery must be removed for long-term storage.
In the event of malfunction, it is advantageous to check the status of the antenna
systems as well as the continuity of the entire cabling including connectors before
replacing any components.

7.2. REPLACEMENT OF COMPONENTS

Read the health and safety warnings in chapter 1.2 Health and Safety Warnings.

Maintenance on the repeater shall be performed by replacing components only.
Soldering on printed circuit boards must be avoided. In order to maintain warranty,
take care not to damage unintentionally the seals on the components. To open the
housing, the upper screws have to be removed first and then the lower screws.
Proceed in reverse order to close the housing.

The spare parts list, consequently, contains only units which can be replaced without
tuning or complex soldering work. Those units are all Mikom parts as well as internal
and external cables.
Note: Defect parts should only be replaced by original parts from Mikom.
All interventions inside the housing are at ones own risk.
Note: During maintenance ensure that the repeater has been
disconnected from mains and that - if installed - the battery
backup module has been switched off/unplugged.
Note: Before disconnecting any cables, label any unlabeled cables to
ensure correct reconnection, and check the switch positions of the
removed part to set the switches of the new part accordingly.
Note: Depending on the repeater configuration some components are
equipped with a 50-Ohm termination resistor. In such a case, use
the termination resistor of the removed part to terminate the
respective connector of the replacement part.


Users Manual for MR351 BTS

Page 44 M0029A1D.doc


For most maintenance procedures appropriate tools are required to ensure correct
handling. All these tools can be ordered from Mikom. For screwing procedures
observe that all our screws have a right-hand thread, i.e. for fastening the screws
turn the tool clockwise and for unscrewing them turn it counter-clockwise. For SMA
connectors a specified torque of 100 Ncm has to be observed. Therefore, use an
appropriate tool. Also, specified torques have to be observed for screws, depending
on the screw type and thread.

The table below shows a survey of the various screws with their respective torques.
In order not to exceed these torques, use appropriate tools for screwing procedures.

Screw type
Tallow-drop Socket head cap Countersunk head
Thread size Specified torque (in Ncm)
M 2.0 40 not in use 40
M 2.5 82 not in use 82
M 3.0 145 100 145
M 4.0 330 330 330
M 5.0 650 not in use 650
table 7-1 Specified torques
Notes: Use a torque wrench for unscrewing and tightening the RF
connectors.
Pay attention to the cables before removing a part.
Use enough heat conducting paste when replacing active parts
and wherever required.
After the replacement of a component, check whether the system
has to be levelled anew.

7.2.1. RF Chassis

In some cases the RF chassis has to be removed before replacing parts of the
equipment. It is screwed to the rear panel of the housing which has the function of a
heat sink.

First, the rear panel has to be dismounted by unscrewing the six M5 hex socket head
screws. Next, the antenna cables and the control cable from the control module have
to be disconnected. After that, the rear panel can be put aside the housing.

The RF chassis is separated horizontally by a mounting plate. In order to dismount
components situated below this plate, first the plate has to be removed by
unscrewing the eight Phillips screws M3x4. Prior to this, it is recommended to
unscrew the RF lines from the couplers and to unscrew the DC lines from the DC
distributor.

7.2.2. Fuses

The repeater has only primary fuses which are accessible at the front panel of the
power supply. Two fuses T1L250V belonging to the socket are directly adjacent to it.
To the right of the receptacle there are two fuses T2,5L250V. They are belonging to
the internal power supply A. The fuses T2,5L250V to the left are belonging to the
internal power supply B. Please note: Use only fuses of the same type and the same
rating when replacing!

Although the following figure could look a bit different the inner fuses belong always
to the socket and the outer ones to the respective power supplies.

7.2.3. Mains Cable

In case the length of the delivered mains cable should not be sufficient or in case of a
defect, the mains cable can be replaced. First, the repeater has to be dismounted
from the brackets and its rear panel has to be removed according to chapter 7.2.1 RF
Chassis. After that, the mains cable is accessible at the rear of the power supply.
Unscrew it from the clamps and pull it through the watertight grommet after having
loosened the grommet screw.

For mounting the replacement proceed in reverse order.

7.2.4. Backup Battery

The backup battery of the control module has to be replaced in case of memory loss,
or as a preventive measure after approximately three years of usage. The type of the
battery is 3V Lithium LR 2450 (500mA), manufacturer is RENATA or equivalent.
Note: Observe the rules for changing Lithium batteries. Wrong
connection or treatment may result in bursting of the battery and
dissemination of hazardous substances.
Note: Do not try to charge this battery.

The battery is located on the control module. After opening the housing it is
accessible at the left beside the conversion modules. In some cases it is
recommendable to remove any hindering conversion modules, first, to get better
access to the thin, round battery.

After the replacement, the control module has its basic settings. All operational
parameters have to be set anew.

7.2.5. Conversion Modules and Second Oscillators

The conversion modules can easily be removed without dismounting any other unit.
They are simply screwed to the distributor module with screws on the top and at the
bottom.

In automatic operation, after plug in of the replacement, the old settings have to be
refreshed by the instruction STO SYNTH.

The following figure shows an arrangement of the conversion modules.

7.2.7. Distributor Module

The distributor unit is plugged to the three D-Sub connectors of the control module.
To dismount the distributor module the conversion modules have to be unscrewed
first. It can then be dismounted with the mounting frame.

7.2.8. Duplexers

The duplexers are mounted to the upper and to the lower part of the mounting plate.
First, the cable connections have to be loosened by means of a SMA-torque-wrench.
Next, the mounting plate has to be removed.

After that the duplexers can be removed by unscrewing from the rear of the mounting
plate. They are fixed to the mounting plate by oval head screw M2.5x16.

Prior to dismounting, it is advisable to remove hindering cables. For mounting the
replacement, which does not require any adjustment, proceed in reverse order.

7.2.9. Power Supply

The power supply is located in the upper part of the housing. It is fastened by means
of eight screws from the top of the housing. In order to remove the power supply, four
nuts have to be unscrewed at the front side, and four nuts have to be unscrewed at
the rear after having removed the rear panel of the housing. Prior to this unscrew the
ground strap and disconnect all cables.

7.2.10. Active Combiner (Final Amplifier)

The amplifiers are mounted directly to the heat sink which forms the rear panel of the
housing. In order to remove a combiner, first disconnect all hindering cables and
dismount the rear panel. Afterwards, the combiners can be unscrewed.

At replacement ensure that there is a sufficient amount of thermal conductive paste
between the combiners and the mounting plane.

7.2.11. Master Oscillator

The master oscillator is located on the left hand side of the repeater. It is mounted to
the repeater cabinet by means of a mounting plate. This mounting plate is screwed to
the repeater cabinet. If the repeater is equipped with a battery backup module, the
battery backup module has to be unscrewed before the master oscillator can be
removed.
