ADCP-77-061 • Issue A • 08/2008 • Preface ABOUT THIS MANUAL Welcome to the InterReach picoBTS Installation Guide. It describes how to perform local installation and commissioning of the picoBTS at the customer’s site. This document is intended for an ADC trained field service engineer (FSE) or operator who performs local installation and commissioning at the customer’s site.
ADCP-77-061 • Issue A • 08/2008 • Preface If the trouble is causing harm to the telephone network, the telephone company may request you to remove the equipment from the network until the problem is resolved. It is recommended that the customer install a surge arrester in the AC outlet to which that device is connected. This is to avoid damaging the equipment caused by local lightning strikes and other electrical surges.
ADCP-77-061 • Issue A • 08/2008 • Preface Before installing this equipment, users should ensure that it is permissible to be connected to the facilities of the local telecommunications company. The equipment must also be installed using an acceptable method of connection. The customer should be aware that compliance with the above conditions may not prevent degradation of service in some situations. Repairs to certified equipment should be coordinated by a representative designated by the supplier.
ADCP-77-061 • Issue A • 08/2008 • Preface ADMONISHMENTS Important safety admonishments are used throughout this manual to warn of possible hazards to persons or equipment. An admonishment identifies a possible hazard and then explains what may happen if the hazard is not avoided. The admonishments — in the form of Dangers, Warnings, and Cautions — must be followed at all times.
