MDR-8000/i/s/u Microwave Digital Radios Users Manual Alcatel Part Number 3EM15726AA Issue 2, June, 2004 Part 2 of 2 3400 West Plano Parkway Plano, Texas 75075-5813 U.S.A.
4 INITIAL TURNUP 4.1 SECTION INTRODUCTION This section describes the procedures required to turn up the MDR-8000 Microwave Digital Radios after installation. This provisioning part of the section describes provisioning options available with the MDR-8000 software application. Provisioning allows for the definition, editing, and storing of specific functions. The MDR-8000 provides the ability to provision equipment and facilities through a series of Windows™-based screens and messages.

4.3 PROVISIONING RADIO Note Screen shown is for DS1 Radio. DS3 and OC3 radio configuration provisioning is similar. Changes to provisioning do not have to be made in any particular order. Open radio provisioning screens. On main screen, double click on tower icon. Status and alarm screen displays. Click on Provisioning. Check current provisioning and change as required. SELECT TERMINAL, REPEATER, RING TERMINAL OR RING REPEATER FROM DROP DOWN LIST.
Note Screen shown is for DS1 Radio. DS3 and OC3 radio configuration provisioning is similar. Changes to provisioning do not have to be made in any particular order. NOTES 1. ATPC T/O IS A CMD PATH FUNCTION PERFORMED AT XMTR. 2. ATPC TRACKS RCVR WITH HIGHEST LEVEL. 3. LOW POWER ATPC IS 10dB DOWN FROM HIGH POWER. SELECT ATPC OR ATPC T/O ENABLE AUTOMATIC XMT POWER CONTROL (ATPC) FUNCTION. WHEN PROVISIONED ATPC OR ATPC T/0, ONE RCVR OUT-OF-LOCK CAUSES HIGH POWER ATPC FOR 10 SECONDS EVERY ONE MINUTE.
Note MASTER RING CONFIGURATIONS – Master rings are networks that consist entirely of a loop of synchronous repeaters. All nodes in the same ring direction use the same clock timing. Timing may be different for each direction. All service channel data is passed synchronously around the ring. The status of the ring is monitored using messages in the ELMC channel.

ONE MUST BE SELECTED FOR FUNCTION TO DISPLAY.
Note The 2-wire handset is transported over Audio 1 only. Note Audio provisioning is required only if 4-wire audio equipment (external equipment not part of the radio) is supplied and the external audio equipment is connected to audio port 1 J316 or audio port 2 J317 on the radio backplane. These provisionable 4-wire audio functions should not be confused with the 2-wire audio handset.
Note DTMF allows you to dialup and ring other sites using the 2-wire handset. Only the ringing is detected. Communication over the handset is party-line. DTMF addressing is a local function not a network function, therefore if one or more radios are assigned the same DTMF address, they will all ring when that address is dialed. To be able to use the DTMF function: 1. Audio 1 must be selected for 2-wire handset operation. 2. DTMF must be turned ON on the Audio provisioning screen. 3.
SELECT MCS RSS ON TO ALLOW CONTROLLER TO RESPOND WHEN REMOTE STATION SCANNER (RSS) IS POLLED. IF THIS OPTION IS TURNED OFF, CONTROLLER DOES NOT RESPOND WHEN RSS IS POLLED.

5 MAINTENANCE GENERAL This section contains information and procedures to aid in restoring the equipment to its proper operating condition after it has been determined that a problem exists. 5.1 The following warnings and cautions apply while operating, performance testing, troubleshooting, or repairing the MDR-8000 series radios. DANGER Possibility of Injury to Personnel Short circuits in low-voltage, low-impedance dc circuits can cause severe arcing that may result in burns or eye injury.
CAUTION Possibility of Service Interruption RF flex coaxial cable requires special consideration. The electrical characteristics of the coax can be affected if it is accidentally twisted or bent. Provide mechanical support to prevent any weight or strain to the coax and connector when connecting or disconnecting equipment. Loosen the connectors at both ends of a coax section if one end must be moved even slightly.

RECOMMENDED PERIODIC CHECKS Perform local oscillator frequency verification, receive local oscillator frequency verification, and transmitter output check 1 year after initial setting and at 5-year intervals thereafter to correct possible drift caused by aging. 5.6 TROUBLESHOOTING The digital radio system is equipped with alarm circuitry and automatic switching (in hotstandby, frequency diversity, and space diversity configurations) to provide protection against loss of traffic.

5.8 MODULE REPLACEMENT WARNING Possibility of Damage to Equipment Modules screwed to heat sink must be screwed securely before power is turned on. WARNING Possibility of Damage to Equipment Units with the electrostatic-sensitive (ESS) symbol contain ESS devices. Store these units in an antistatic container when not in use, and anyone handling a unit should observe antistatic precautions. Damage to the unit may result if antistatic protection is not maintained.
CAUTION Possibility of Service Interruption Modules may be removed or installed with shelf power applied. However, exercise reasonable care to prevent contacting adjacent modules. If clearances are narrow, consider setting the power supply to OFF while the module is being removed or replaced. (Before setting any switch to OFF, verify that traffic has been protected.) Before replacing any module, refer to Table 5-2 to determine the actions, other than physical replacement, required.
Table 5-2 Module Replacement Matrix MODULE/UNIT REMOVAL/REPLACEMENT PROCEDURE CHECKS/ADJUSTMENTS PROCEDURE AE-27AF Relay Interface No Special Procedure Required None Required AE-37Y Controller Chart 2 None Required CE-16BB Power Supply Chart 1 None Required Fuse No Special Procedure Required. Refer to Operations Section for Location.
5.9 CHANGING FREQUENCY CAUTION Possibility of Service Interruption Crystals are soldered and tuned up in a crystal oscillator subboard at the factory. Changing frequencies requires changing the crystal on the crystal oscillator subboard in the transmitter and receiver modules. Changing out the crystal requires tuning the crystal oscillator subboard. Tuning the crystal oscillator subboard is a factory procedure. An RF frequency change of ±2 MHz requires re-tuning the diplexer.
