Chapter 1 Product Description
Introduction
This manual provides information and procedures for installation, operation, and maintenance of the OS-1991 Multi-Carrier Power Amplifier (MCPA) Outdoor Booster System.
Scope of Manual
This manual is intended for use by service technicians familiar with similar types of equipment. It contains service information required for the equipment described and is current as of the printing date. Changes which occur after the printing date may be incorporated by a complete manual revision or alternatively as additions. The manual is organized into the following chapters: Chapter 1 - Product Description Chapter 2 - Installation Chapter 3 - Operation Chapter 4 - Maintenance Chapter 5 - Specifications and Drawings
General Description
The outdoor system (OS), shown in Figures 1-1 through 1-4, is a three-way combined, single-sector system. The system operates in a maximum of 65 MHz transmit frequency band (1930 to 1995 MHz) and a maximum instantaneous bandwidth of 65 MHz. The system uses an uplink frequency range of 1850 to 1915 MHz. The OS has a sturdy aluminum IP55 rated cabinet with front and rear locking hinged doors equipped with intrusion alarms. The door latches are 1/4 turn and require a 10 mm hex socket wrench or nut driver to open and close. The doors can be secured with a padlock with a 1/2 inch maximum shank diameter. The front and rear doors both contain a removable, washable air filter. Bolt inserts located on the cabinet side, top, and bottom panels are for mounting the OS to a secure fixed location. RF connections are located on the interface bulkhead plate at the bottom rear of the cabinet. External power and alarm cables are routed through access holes located adjacent to the bulkhead. Cabinet ground is also located next to the interface bulkhead. The OS system provides three forms of alarm reporting; Form-C contact closure, ethernet (web page), and wireless modem. Intrusion is reported via Form-C only. Major features of the OS cabinet include the following: Up to three MCPAs. One RF Conditioning Unit (RFCU). One Universal Control Module (UCM). One optional modem kit that supports up to three cabinets. One power system containing up to four rectifier modules. One variable-speed fan assembly per door. Alarms
MCPA
The MCPA module, shown in Figure 1-5, is a 1900 MHz RF amplifier. The MCPAs operational features include a front panel RF OFF/ON/RESET switch and a multicolored LED indicator to display system status. The MCPA RF outputs are combined by an external 3:1 combiner. MCPA faults are reported via the UCM. 044-05307 Rev A 1-1
OS-1991
General Description
RF Conditioning Unit (RFCU)

The RF Conditioning Unit (RFCU) combines up to six separate BTS feeds; two duplexed and four simplexed. The RFCU combines, attenuates, and conditions the RF signals. If a critical system failure occurs, the RFCU places the system into bypass mode.
Universal Control Module (UCM)

The Universal Control Module (UCM), shown in Figure 1-7, provides control and monitoring of the OS operation. Front panel membrane key switches provide the capability to navigate through a menu-driven display program. Refer to Chapter 3 for a complete description of the UCMs features.
Modem
The wireless modem, shown in Figure 1-8, receives fault data from the UCM after it has been converted from RS485 serial data into Point to Point Protocol (PPP) data packets to support a type 2 SNMP (System Network Management Protocol) format. The modem transmits the SNMP data (inform messages) to a remote location where it is read by the SNMP manager application. In a multi-sector site, only one OS cabinet (sector one) requires a modem. The OS cabinets for the other sectors are connected to the sector one OS cabinet by a RS485 interface. Refer to Figure 1-9 for a block diagram of the OS to remote location communication. When multiple OS boosters are daisy-chained together, each booster must be programmed via the UCM to a unique address. Up to a total of four boosters can be supported by one modem. The modem module also includes an Etnernet interface. Use this interface to view status and configure the MODEM and system parameters from a web page.
Power System
The power system shown in Figure 1-10, contains up to four +27 VDC plug-in 1300 watt rectifier modules.The rectifier modules converts the system AC input power to supply +27 VDC to each MCPA and the UCM. Performance of the power system is monitored and reported via the UCM. Power system faults are mapped to Form-C and wireless modem alarms. The two Rx channels provide DC power via Bias-Ts to external TMA modules. Each channel is programmable via the UCM. The UCM monitors and reports DC current. Loss of current or excessive current generates a fault and disables the channel. All fault modes are continuously monitored for fault auto recovery. TMA power is provided independent of the bypass status.
Fans
The system is cooled by two variable speed DC fans that provide air flow through the booster cabinet. One fan is located on the front door and one on the rear door. The fans draw filtered ambient air through the front panel vents and sends heated air out the rear of the cabinet. The variable speed fans are dependant on the MCPA, rectifier, UCM temperature sensors, and door intrusion status. Fan operation is disabled for the fans of any open door. Pulling out the door intrusion switch plunger emulates a door closure and activates the fan operation. The variable speed fans maintain adequate cooling by operating at the slowest possible speed. All temperature sensors are monitored by the UCM and the hottest device controls the fan speed. Fan speed increments or decrements by one step per one minute minimum.
Form-C Alarms
The Form-C method includes four alarm levels detailing alarm severity as follows: Minor - System requires maintenance. Major - System operating but not at optimum performance. Critical - System disabled and bypass active due to a loss of Tx or Rx. Intrusion - Status of the front and rear door closure. System operation not affected.
Form-C alarm reporting is disabled while the modem I/O is active. 1-2 044-05307 Rev A
General Description
OS-1991
External Alarms
The OS booster is capable of monitoring and reporting external Form-C alarms as listed in Table 1-1. Four channels are provided and each channel is programmed via the UCM for NO or NC faults. The four channels are mapped to Form-C alarm outputs and the wireless modem for specific applications. The mapping is hard coded. Table 1-1 External Alarms

Installation Instructions
CAUTION: After commissioning, ensure that all power cable and control cables are properly sealed to prevent moisture and contaminants from entering the cabinet. The outdoor system is designed for installation in an exterior location. The outdoor system must be installed in a designated location that permits access to the lower rear of the cabinet for connection of AC power, RF, and alarm cables. In hot climate environments, shading of the outdoor system is recommended to reduce external heating of the cabinet. Verify sufficient space is available in front of the cabinet to remove and replace the MCPA and rectifier modules and allow free movement of ambient air through the front panel air intake and rear panel exhaust vents. The front door must swing open at a 135 degree angle to allow removal of the MCPAs. Cabinets must have at least 11 inches clearance from the mounting surface if mounted on the left side (facing unit) to allow for door swing. Recommended minimum clearances for the front of the cabinet is 36 inches and 20 inches for the rear of the cabinet. Refer to Tables 2-3 and 2-4 respectively for the materials and tools required for a typical outdoor system installation. Refer to Chapter 5 for system dimensions and typical mounting examples.

Form-C Alarms
The Form-C alarm connections are made at the terminal block located at the rear of the UCM. The contacts accept a 28 - 16 AWG wire. The alarm cable connection is shown in Figure 2-4 and the alarm wiring and relay conditions are listed in Table 2-8. The Form-C alarm interface should be utilized in conjunction with the modem alarm reporting in the event of a modem failure. Under normal modem applications, the Form-C interface is forced to a no alarm state unconditionally. If the UCM cannot maintain communication with the modem, a major alarm is asserted and the Form-C alarms are activated to report alarm states. The minor, major, critical/bypass, and intrusion alarms are defined as follows: Minor (Alarm0) Major (Alarm1) Any cabinet fan fault. MCPAs are faulted but one is still active, RX0 or RX1 is faulted but not both, any rectifier fault, an external alarm other than External Alarm1 AND External Alarm3, or no communication with the modem.
2-6
044-05307 Rev A
Installation Instructions Critical/Bypass (Alarm2) All vacant MCPA channels and/or inserted MCPAs are disabled, all active RX channels are faulted, External Alarm1 AND External Alarm3 faults, the +5V external supply for the RFCU has faulted, or the displayed gain is less than zero resulting in a bypass. A fault causing a critical alarm shuts down the system and requires troubleshooting before the system can be brought on-line. Bypass - any time there is a critical fault reported on the Form-C terminal, the booster is in bypass mode. Front and/or rear cabinet door is open.

Perform the initial startup as instructed in Table 3-5. CAUTION: Before applying power, refer to Chapter 5 for input power requirements and verify that MCPA input and outputs are properly terminated at 50 ohms. Do not operate the MCPA without a load attached. Excessive input power may trigger the overpower alarm disabling or damaging the MCPA. When MCPAs are enabled, at least one cabinet door must be closed and secured to provide adequate cooling. All three MCPA slots must be populated with an MCPA or a blank panel to provide adequate cooling air circulation. NOTE: The OS must be warmed up for a minimum of two minutes prior to setting power levels. Failure to properly warm the MCPAs may result in lower output power when the MCPAs reach operating temperature.

Any current less than 40mA will generate a LO CURRENT fault. Any current greater than 150mA will generate a HI Current fault. Any current greater than 500 mA will disable the DC source for that channel and generate a HI CURRENT fault. A HI CURRENT condition attempts to auto-recover every five minutes by enabling the DC to Rx channel. If fault condition is cured, alarm clears and source remains on. If fault is present, there is no change in status. CAUTION: This parameter sources +12 V at 500 mA maximum to antenna ports. Caution should be used if antenna ports are connected to test equipment with 0 VDC tolerance. To prevent a short circuit and alarm situation, all antenna port connections must be complete prior to enabling TMA DC supplies. Table 3-9 TMA Configuration - UCM (continued)

Note the status of the alarms on the front panels of the rectifier assembly, the MCPA and the UCM. Check fault displays on the UCM using the check sequences in Figures 3-2 through 3-4, or by using the web page with the Ethernet connection. Contact your field representative or factory if troubleshooting does not resolve the problem. The UCM main status menu details the status of the booster. The main menu displays one of the following: SYSTEM OK - No faults or alarms MINOR MAJOR CRITICAL/BYPASS SLEEP MODE - Only applicable to constant gain mode.
The SYSTEM OK display is normal. If alarms are present, the main menu displays the most severe status. Using the Down and UP keys display the list of faults starting from the most recent. The last display is the alarm history. Using the Right key displays past faults in the order of occurrence, storing up to 10 events. The last event is an option to clear the alarm history buffer. Refer to Chapter 3. Prior to troubleshooting, verify the following: Outdoor system receiving specified power from base station. All RF connections are connected properly and are not loose or damaged. All appropriate subassemblies are present inside cabinet.
Rectifier Fault
If a rectifier module is faulted, but no replacement is available, the fault can be masked via the UCM to clear the related alarm. If rectifier fault reporting is disabled, installing a new rectifier module automatically enables reporting after two minutes of installation. Disable the rectifier fault reporting as follows: Refer to Figure 3-5 . Table 4-2 Rectifier Fault - DIsable
