located in the permitted range or not (DC nominal voltage is -48V, and the
permitted range is located in -40V - -58V).

During the test process above, in case of any abnormity, cut off the power supply
immediately and find out the fault causes.

Note:

All operations that related equipment must be perform with antistatic wrist strap. Grounding
should be well done. When inspect all kinds of power supply, pay attention to the on-off
status of every switch and circuit breaker to avoid electric shock.

2. Hardware installation check

i. Rack installation check

− Check whether installation of rack and modules looks good and neat.

− Check whether all screw of every modules are tightened.

− Check whether cables are lined following the specifications.

− Check whether labels are unified and clear, and are easily identified.

ii. IDU and boards installation check

− IDU installation check

Check whether IDUs are installed in the correct positions and whether screws
are tightened.

− Boards installation check

Usually, boards of ZXMW NR8250 (V2.03.02) IDU have been installed and
debugged before delivery, so there is no need to operate on site. During field
commissioning, check boards category, quantity and position in the IDU.

iii. Antenna and feeder installation check

Step

Main lobe of microwave antenna is rather narrow. It is normally from 0.6 degree to 3.7
degree. For example a 1.2 m diameter 23 GHz microwave antenna, there is only 0.9
degree from signal peak to zero. During antenna adjustment, we need only to adjust
slightly when signal is found. Main lobe and side lobe are shown as in Figure 7-3.

We can decide whether main lobes of antennas are aligned properly by comparing the
RSL peak value. Normally RSL peak value of the main lobe is 20 dB - 25 dB higher than
that of the 1st side lobe. If main lobes of both ends are captured by the opposite end
simultaneously, an error within 2 dB is acceptable.

Figure 7-3 Main Lobe and Side Lobe

If 1+1 HSB / FD protection and one antenna are adopted, shut down standby ODUs
of both ends first and power on them after antenna adjustment is done.

If 1+1 SD protection is adopted, antennas shall be adjusted as following steps.

− Power on master ODUs of both ends and keep them active through the
adjustment process.

− Shut down standby ODUs of both ends and adjust master antennas.

− Power on local standby ODU, keep the remote master antenna fixed and
adjust local diversity antenna.

− Power on remote standby ODU, keep the local master antenna fixed and
adjust remote diversity antenna.

Horizontal and vertical adjustment components of antennas can be nuts or screws. Refer to
antenna installation guide for details.

i. Decide antenna azimuth roughly according to antenna height and installation

position, and adjust pitch angle to zero.

ii. Connect multimeter to RSSI port of local ODU and measure the voltage.

iii. Preliminary azimuth and pitch angle adjustment

− Keep remote antenna fixed

− Move local antenna horizontally in a large range and keep watching the voltage
on the multimeter.

− Adjust local antenna slightly in the horizontal and vertical direction till the
voltage reaches the highest value.
