Cavity Combiner - FRU Replacement Process
Chapter 7: Radio Frequency Distribution System
If the TX carrier does not change channel or average power level, the auto tune algorithm will not initiate a
re-tuning on its own which e/- 300 kHz from the carrier frequency. The only exception occurs when
the
fi
ne tune timer event happens. The
fi
ne tune timer is used to compensate for large variations in humidity
and is default set to 480 Minutes. The Cavity Combiner is temperature compensated but large variations in
humidity can de-tune the cavities up to 150 kHz with the result of an increasing insertion loss.
When the
fi
ne tune timer event occurs, all cavities with RF applied will be re-tuned for maximum output
power of each TX carrier. The
fi
ne tune timer can be adjusted to compensate for fast humidity variations;
for instance if the MTS 4 is installed in outdoor sites without air-conditioning. The recommended
setting of the
fi
ne tune timer, if the MTS 4 is installed in a controlled environment, is 480 Minutes.
For sites where the MTS 4 is exposed to more than +/- 20% variation in RH, the recommended setting
of the
fi
ne tune timer is 60-200 minutes depending on the speed of the variation.
Having a second cavity tune up and pass through the desired channel, the desired channel’s insertion
loss dips no more than 3 dB more than the max insertion spec for a period of 0.25 seconds.
The cavity tuning rate should be faster than 1 MHz per second.
The following list contains control and monitoring features available through the CAN Bus:
•
Request current tuned position/frequency of a speci
fi
c cavity.
•
Fine tune time feature, to re-tune each cavity with a speci
fi
ed interval.
•
Park an individual cavity, but if RF power is still present, cavity will park and then retune again.
•
Input power: request current measured input re
fl
ected power of a speci
fi
c cavity.
•
VSWR: request input VSWR of an individual cavity.
•
Tuning status of each cavity; parked, tuning, tuned, and parking.
•
Alarm conditions of each cavity are reported when requested, including : VSWR,
subband, channel spacing and failure to tune.

Process 7-7
Replacing the Cavity Combiner
1
Remove the Cavity Combiner, see
2
Insert the Cavity Combiner into the cabinet, see
.
3
Update the mapping list with the new unit TrackID, see
Removing the Cavity Combiner
RF energy hazard and potential equipment damage precaution. Turn off power
to all Base Radios in the equipment cabinet being tuned before performing
the following procedures to prevent serious injury.
