MSOFTX3000 Mobile SoftSwitch Center Chapter 1 Overview of Routine Maintenance
Chapter 1 Overview of Routine Maintenance
1.1 Definition of Routine Maintenance

Routine maintenance is a preventive measure taken periodically during normal
operation of the system, for the purposes of discovering and eliminating hidden
defects or troubles in the system in time, and ensuring the safe and stable operation
of the system for a long term.
1.2 Routine Maintenance Suggestions

1.2.1 Basic Principles for Equipment Maintenance
To completely exert the equipment’s performance and function, avoid various

accidents, ensure the long-term safe and stable operation of MSOFTX3000, and
lower the maintenance cost, you need to take the following basic principles into
consideration before maintaining the equipment:
Pay full attention to the importance of routine maintenance. Ensure that the
maintenance work is carried out correctly and orderly by establishing strict
regulations for equipment management and maintenance.
The equipment room environment must meet the requirements stipulated in the
related national or industrial standards. The equipment room should be clean
and equipped with dust-proof, moisture-proof, and rodent-resistant devices.
Maintenance personnel must be trained before performing maintenance work.
They must learn necessary equipment maintenance knowledge, operation
regulations, and industry security regulations, and grasp basic operation skills
and emergency handling techniques on equipment.
Maintenance personnel must carry out routine check and test and record the
corresponding results every day according to the suggestions described in this
manual.
If any difficulty is met during maintenance, maintenance personnel must record
the original information in detail, and then contact Huawei Customer Service
Center or Regional Office of Huawei in time.
If any emergency occurs, maintenance personnel must keep calm and handle it
according to the related procedures as described in Huawei MSOFTX3000
Mobile SoftSwitch Center Maintenance Manual-Emergency Maintenance, and
immediately contact Huawei Customer Service Center (refer to the second page
in Cover of this manual for the contact method) or Regional Office of Huawei.
The system administrator must keep the management-level passwords from
others and modify them periodically. Passwords should be classified into
1-1
different levels and allocated based on the operation authorities of the

maintenance personnel and workstations for the purposes of ensuring secure
operation of the terminal system.
Record all major operations such as board switchover, system resetting, and
software loading, and carefully confirm whether the operations are feasible
before carrying out them. Only after the corresponding backup, emergency, and
security measures are made, can the qualified maintenance personnel perform
the operations. Maintenance personnel are prohibited from installing or running
non-standard software on such critical computers as BAM, iGWB, and
emergency workstation. The non-standard software includes firewall software,
anti-virus software, games software, and pirated software.
Except the software delivered by Huawei with the equipment, the other software
cannot be used to access or modify the database directly; otherwise, unexpected
result will occur.
Modify office data under authorization and control. Maintenance personnel must
back up the office data before modifying it, and record the modified content.
Keep sufficient spare parts in storage for the replacement of back-to-fix faulty
parts, especially such primary boards as the WSMU, WIFM, WBSG, and
WCCU/WCSU.
1.2.2 Purposes of Routine Maintenance
I. Classification of routine maintenance
Depending on the period, routine maintenance can be divided into two types: daily
maintenance and periodic maintenance.
II. Daily maintenance
Daily maintenance refers to the simple maintenance operations implemented by the

common maintenance personnel every day, such as checking equipment room
environment, power supply system, bills, and alarms. Daily maintenance serves the
following purposes:
To recognize alarms generated by the equipment or the existing defects of the
equipment in time and take appropriate measures accordingly, thus keeping
stable operation of the equipment and lowering rate of failure.
To recognize abnormal phenomenon occurring during the operation of the billing
system and handle it in time, thus reducing economic loss due to loss of bills.
To grasp the operation state of both equipment and network in real time and find
out the operation tendency of them, thus improving the handling efficiency of
maintenance personnel on emergency accidents.
1-2
III. Periodic maintenance
Periodic maintenance refers to the complicated maintenance operations implemented

by the trained maintenance personnel periodically, such as checking cables,
measuring grounding resistance, cleaning equipment, and so on. Periodic
maintenance serves the following purposes:
To keep the equipment in good state and ensure the safe and stable operation of
it.
Through periodic check, backup, test, and cleaning, to find out the defects of the
equipment in time during operation such as natural aging, function out of work,
and deterioration of performance, and then to take appropriate measures
accordingly.
1.3 Requirements on Equipment Room Environment

1.3.1 Overview of Environment Requirements
To enable MSOFTX3000 to work safely and stably for a long term and lower the rate
of failure caused by environment factors, you need to improve the environment
conditions of the equipment room by taking effective measures and make the
conditions meet the basic requirements presented in this manual.
1.3.2 Temperature
I. Basic requirements
Install ventilating arrangement and air-conditioner in the equipment room to keep the
indoor temperature in range of 5°C to 45°C. In the temperature range of –5°C to +5°C
and 45°C to 55°C, which are regarded as the short-term working conditions, it is
prohibited that the equipment works for over 48 hours continuously and the
accumulated working duration each year exceeds 15 days.
Note:
The measurement of temperature and humidity must be conducted at the point two meters above the
floor and 0.4 meters away from the front side of the equipment (without protection boards in both front
and back sides).
II. Effect on equipment operation
Temperature is an important factor affecting the long-term reliable operation of the

communication equipment. Overly high or low temperature will impose ill effects on
the equipment operation.
1-3
When the temperature is overly high, ions in the integrated circuits will diffuse or
drift increasingly. The electrons move faster to multiply the penetrating current,
which finally leads to damage of circuits caused by thermal breakdown.
When the temperature is overly high, the resistance value and the capacity of
electrolysis and capacitance in the communication equipment will change, which
causes the alteration of circuit parameters and finally leads to deterioration of
equipment performance.
When the temperature is overly high, sockets, plugs, and switches are prone to
back contact with each other due to heat caused flatulence or cold caused shrink,
which jeopardizes the reliable operation of the equipment.
When the temperature is overly high or low, the master clock frequency of the
crystal oscillator circuits will change, which affects the synchronization between
different equipment and leads to rise of bit error rate and slip rate.
Overly high temperature will accelerate the aging speed of insulating material,
while overly low temperature will make insulating material fragile. Both will
decrease the lifespan of the equipment.
1.3.3 Temperature Variation
Take proper temperature control measures in the equipment room to avoid great
variation of indoor temperature. Keep the temperature variation rate per hour not
more than ±5°C.
Temperature variation affects the heat capacity of various parts of the equipment. Due
to different materials and volumes, the heat capacity of various parts varies a lot;
therefore, their sensibility to temperature variation is different, too.
The higher the heat capacity is, the greater the effect imposed by temperature
variation on the components will be. It is the same case reversely. In addition, when
the temperature changes dramatically, different stresses will be generated on different
components due to heat caused flatulent and cold caused shrink, which will
jeopardize the mechanical structure of the equipment and even lead to break of circuit
boards or fall-apart of components.
1.3.4 Relative Humidity
Install appropriate dehumidifying or humidifying device in the equipment room to

maintain the indoor relative humidity always in range of 5% to 65%. If the relative
humidity is lower than 5% or ranges from 65% to 95%, which are regarded as the
short-term working conditions, it is prohibited that the equipment works for over 48
1-4
hours continuously and the accumulated working duration each year exceeds 15
days.
Note:
The measurement of temperature and humidity must be conducted at the point two meters above the
floor and 0.4 meters away from the front side of the equipment (without protection boards in both front
and back sides).
When the relative humidity is overly high, a layer of water membrane will be
absorbed on the surface of electronic components. According to the research,
when the relative humidity is over 65%, the water membrane can be as thick as
0.001 µm to 0.01 µm. The water membrane will result in conductivity and affect
the electrical performance of the integrated circuits.
When the relative humidity is overly high, magnetoconductivity rate of the
magnetic materials will be affected and connecting pieces and leads will be
prone to oxidization and rustiness, thus leading to bad contact or short-circuiting.
When the relative humidity is overly low, static will be generated due to the
friction between running machine, raised floor, and operation personnel in the
equipment room.
When the relative humidity is overly low, electriferous dust and particles in the air
will increase greatly, which deteriorates air cleanness in the equipment room and
imperils the stable operation of the equipment.
1.3.5 Air Cleanness
There are two items for judging the air cleanness level: thickness of mechanical active
substance and that of chemical active substance. Take proper protection measures in
the equipment room to meet the following requirements:
There is no explosive, conductive, magnetoconductive, or erosive dust.
The thickness of mechanical active substance must comply with the
specifications listed in Table 1-1.
Table 1-1 Specifications on thickness of mechanical active substance
Mechanical active
Unit Content Diameter

Dust particles Particle/m³ =3×105 ≤ 5 µm
Suspended dust mg/m³ =0.2 ≤ 75 µm

Mechanical active
Unit Content Diameter
substance
Deposited dust mg/m²·h =1.5 75 µm–150 µm
Grit mg/m³ ≤30 150 µm–000 µm
The thickness of chemical active substance must comply with the specifications
listed in Table 1-2.
Table 1-2 Thickness of harmful gas
Chemical active substance Unit Content

SO2 mg/m³ 0.30–1.00
H2S mg/m³ 0.10–0.50
NO2 mg/m³ 0.50–1.00
NH3 mg/m³ 1.00–3.00
Cl2 mg/m³ 0.10–0.30
HCl mg/m³ 0.10–0.50
HF mg/m³ 0.01–0.03
O3 mg/m³ 0.05–0.10
CO mg/m³ ≤5.0
When the thickness of dust particles in the air is overly high, they will be attached
on the surface of electronic components and integrated circuits, thus weakening
heat dissipation ability of them. When conductive dust falls into the components,
insulation performance of the components will decline, and even short-circuiting
will occur.
Chemical active substance also imposes great effect on the communication
equipment. For example, if acidic gas such as SO2 is overly thick in the air, the
communication equipment will be rusted, leading to bad contact or
short-circuiting. If CO is overly thick in the air, explosion will be caused.
1.3.6 Electromagnetic Radiation Resistance
Take proper shielding or protection measures in the equipment room to reduce

interference between various devices and that from outdoor electromagnetic
environment. The following specifications must be met:
1-6
1) Strength of electric field ≤130 µV/m

2) Strength of magnetic field ≤ 800 A/m
Generation of electromagnetic interference

Electromagnetic interference may result from discharge of transmission line corona,
electromagnetic radiation from transformer or high frequency switch power, waveform
distortion of the power supply network caused by operations on large equipment,
space radio frequency, earth’s magnetic field, and external radiation.
These interference sources interfere with the communication equipment through
capacitance coupling, inductance coupling, electromagnetic wave radiation, public
impedance (including grounding system), and conductive wire (including power line,
signal line, and output line).
Harm on communication equipment
Electromagnetic interference directly affects the stability, reliability, and security of
equipment. Electromagnetic interference can be so serious that it might lead to
communication babble, blocking, error bit, interruption, or even software failure and
damage to equipment.
1.3.7 Electrostatic Discharge Prevention
Take proper electrostatic discharge (ESD) prevention measures in the equipment

room to suppress or reduce electrostatic discharge.
Ground the equipment reliably (the grounding resistance must be less than one
ohm) to avoid accumulation of electrostatic charges. Install ESD-preventive floor,
carpet, or leather carpet in the equipment room.
Take dust-proof measures in the equipment room to prevent or lessen
electrostatic adsorption.
Keep the temperature and humidity in the equipment room compliant with the
above-mentioned specifications.
Maintenance personnel must observe the related ESD prevention stipulations
when operating on the equipment, such as wearing ESD-preventive cloths and
wrist strap.
Cause for ESD in equipment room

The average capacitance in human body is about 200 pF, so electrostatic charges will
be generated when you are walking, which is equivalent to the relative movement
between charged bodies. The quantity of charges carried in human body depends on
the material of the clothes worn, floor material, state of material surface, indoor
1-7
temperature and humidity, walking speed, and so on. For example, less electrostatic
charges will be generated when you wear ESD-preventive clothes than wearing
clothes made of chemical fiber. Human body will generate less electrostatic charges if
the floor is well grounded and the indoor humidity is high.
Harm on equipment
The ESD can be a great menace to all communication equipment. The instantaneous
electrostatic voltage can be several thousand or more than ten thousand volts;
therefore, when electrostatic charges contact with such electronic components using
CMOS technique as large-scale integrated circuits, ESD will occur, which will damage
the electronic components or even the equipment will fail to run normally.
60% of faulty boards are caused by ESD. ESD can also lead to software failures and
failure of electronic switches.
Table 1-3 Electrostatic voltage carried in human body
Situation Voltage range (volt)

The following diagram shows the rising tendency of the voltage in human body within
40 seconds in three different situations. It is dangerous for human body if the voltage
exceeds 12 kV.

Insulating material can accumulate electrostatic charges, but conducting material

cannot. Insulating material includes plastic floor, nylon and chemical fiber carpet,
shoes made of leather and plastic, chemical fiber clothes, and low-humidity (dry)
material. In the environment with humidity over 60%, both the floor made of
semiconducting material and cement floor are good ESD-preventive material.
Table 1-4 lists the sensibility level of various components to ESD.
Table 1-4 Sensibility level of various components to ESD
Component Voltage leading to damage (volt)

MOS (integrated circuit) 100–200
CMOS (integrated circuit) 250–2000
TTL circuit 300–1500
Field effect transistor 380–7900
Printed circuit board for multiple purposes 500
Silicon controlled thyristor 680–1000
Figure 1-1 and Table 1-4 show the harm of ESD to hardware components. When a
man is walking in a room without any ESD-preventive measure taken, electrostatic
charges of more than 12 kV will be generated after only 12 seconds. At this time, if the
man touches any electronic equipment, the equipment might be damaged.
1.3.8 Grounding
Grounding mode: joint grounding, which means the working ground, protection
ground, and lightning protection ground of the equipment share one grounding
body.
Grounding resistance should be not more than one ohm.
Grounding wire: Determine the cross-sectional area of various grounding wires
based on the possible maximum current load. Use conducting wire such as
copper wire. Do not use bare wire.
Good grounding is one of the important measures to ensure the stable operation of
the communication equipment. It is crucial in guaranteeing human safety and
preventing ESD, electromagnetic interference, and lightning interference.

3.1 Maintaining Grounding System

3.1.1 Checking Grounding System
Good grounding is one of important measures to ensure the stable operation of

MSOFTX3000. It can protect maintenance personnel against electric shock and
protect equipment against ESD interference, electromagnetic interference, and
lightning strike. Therefore, be sure to check the grounding system of MSOFTX3000 at
regular intervals (once a month is suggested).
I. Introduction to grounding system
MSOFTX3000 adopts joint grounding, that is, working ground (GND), protection
ground (PGND), and backhaul ground (BGND) share one grounding body, the
grounding cables of all cabinets are connected firmly to form an equipotential system.
Depending on the installation or connecting positions, the grounding cables (in olivine
normally) of MSOFTX3000 are classified as the following:

II. Checking grounding system
1) Check whether the grounding cables in a cabinet are damaged, aged, eroded, or
burned by electrical arc.
2) Check whether the connecting terminals and captive screws of all grounding
cables in the cabinet are connected firmly and no erosion occurs to them.
3) Use a multimeter to test whether all components in a cabinet are well grounded.
Adjust the multimeter to the ohm range, connect one probe to a fixed grounding
point in the equipment room (lengthen the probe cable if it is not long enough),
and then use the other probe to measure the grounding points in the cabinet one
by one. In view of the measurement precision of the multimeter, the resistance
measured at each grounding point should be about one ohm. If the resistance
measured at a grounding point is more than one ohm apparently, check the
grounding cable, grounding terminal, and captive screw of this grounding point
immediately, and then take appropriate measures accordingly.
4) Use an earth resistance tester to measure the grounding resistance of the
grounding network in the equipment room. The grounding resistance should be
not more than one ohm. Refer to 3.1.2 for the detailed measurement method.
III. Definitions of PGND, BGND, and GND
PGND: the protection ground for cabinets and metal cases of various devices in
a cabinet.
BGND: the backhaul ground for DC power supply of cabinets. Generally, the
positive pole of –48 VDC power is grounded in the power distribution cabinet.
GND: the working ground for circuits in various devices in a cabinet. It is the joint
name for the digital ground and analog ground of boards and backplane.
3.1.2 Measuring Grounding Resistance
I. Measurement method
It is recommended to use the earth resistance tester to measure the grounding

resistance of the grounding network in the equipment room. Place the voltage pole
and current pole of the earth resistance tester in a manner as shown in Figure 3-1
during measurement.
3-2
Grounding network Measurement point
Voltage pole Current pole

d2
d1
Figure 3-1 Layout of poles of earth resistance tester
The current pole is distanced from the edge of the grounding network with d1,
which is four to five times of the maximum diagonal length (D) of the grounding
network.
The voltage pole is distanced from the edge of the grounding network with d2,
which is 50% to 60% of the distance d1 between the current pole and the
grounding network.
When measuring the resistance, move the voltage pole three times along the line
between the current pole and the grounding network. The distance moved each
time is 5% of d1. If the resistance values measured for three times are relatively
close, take the average value of these three values as the grounding resistance
of the grounding network.
If d1 cannot be four to five times of D, set d1 to 2D and d2 to D in areas with
relatively even earth resistance rate, and set d1 to 3D and d2 to 1.7D in areas
with uneven earth resistance rate.
II. Cautions
Place the current pole and voltage pole vertical to the line or underground metal
pipe.
Do not measure the grounding resistance immediately after rain.

them are cleaned.
3.2.4 Cleaning Air Deflector
In an N68-22 cabinet, except the service frame installed at the bottom, the other
service frames are equipped with an air deflector at the bottom of themselves. An air
deflector functions as a channel for sending wind to the above service frame for heat
dissipation purposes. During the operation of the equipment, the dust in the air will be
attached on the air deflectors. The accumulated dust will affect the performance of the
service frames and even equipment stability.
To ensure long-term stability of the equipment, be sure to clean each air deflector
periodically (once a year is recommended). Proceed as follows:
I. Removing an air deflector out of a cabinet

2) Unscrew the four screws fixing the air deflector on the front posts of the cabinet
with a crossover screwdriver.
3) Pull the air deflector out of the cabinet slowly.
II. Wiping dust from the air deflector

3.2.5 Cleaning Board
Caution:
To reduce maintenance risks, be sure to clean the boards during the time period with light traffic, for
example, 2:00–4:00.
During the operation of the equipment, the charged ions or dust in the air will be
attached on the boards due to their electrical feature and cross-ventilation during heat
dissipation of the equipment. The attachment will be more powerful if the air is less
pure and the relative humidity is lower. The accumulated dust will affect the heat
dissipation and insulation performance of the boards fatally, thus menacing the
equipment stability. To ensure long-term stability of the equipment, be sure to clean all
boards in a cabinet periodically (once every two years is recommended). Proceed as
follows:
I. Preparing backup boards
Before cleaning all the boards in a service frame, prepare a backup board for each
type of board in the frame first. Suppose a service frame is inserted with the following
boards, as shown in Figure 3-2.

As shown in the figure, you need to prepare the backup boards for the WIFM, WBFI,
WBAI, WAFM, WSMU, WSIU, WHSC, WMGC, WCDB, WCKI, WALU, and UPWR..
II. Replacing a board to be cleaned
To avoid faults during maintenance, you must replace the board to be cleaned with a
backup board according to the board replacement flow strictly. You can proceed to
clean the placed board only after the backup board runs normally. For the board
replacement flow, refer to HUAWEI MSOFTX3000 Mobile SoftSwitch Center
Maintenance Manual-Parts Replacement.
III. Removing dust from boards
You can clean the boards in several ways. The principal principle of these methods is
to prevent the physical and electrical characteristics of the boards from being
damaged. This manual describes two commonly used methods.
Use of a vacuum cleaner
Use a clean and dry ESD-preventive soft brush to slightly wipe the dust off the board
surface, and at the same time point the suction nozzle of a vacuum cleaner at the
brush to suck.
3-8
Use of a vacuum cleaner is simple in operation and cheap in cost, but it fails to
remove the harmful gas absorbed on the board surface.
Use of cleaning agent
Use the dedicated anhydrous, nonerosive, nonconductive, and high-volatility cleaning
agent to clean the boards, for example, isopropanol (IPA).
Cleaning agent can not only remove the dust from the boards completely, but also
remove most of the harmful gas absorbed on the surface of the boards. However, this
method is relatively complicated in operations and high in cost.
Caution:
ESD-preventive measures must be taken strictly during the operation. For example, be sure to wear
ESD-preventive clothes and wrist strap when operating on the ESD-preventive workstation.
Select the cleaning agent according to the related national standards strictly; otherwise, boards may
be damaged.
IV. Cleaning the boards in turn
Restricted by the quantity of spare parts, it is impossible to replace all the boards to be
cleaned in one time. In this case, you can replace a board to be cleaned with the
already cleaned one of the same type.
Caution:
Because the settings of the DIP switch S3 are different when the WSIU is inserted in different frames, be
sure to check whether the settings of S3 are the same as the original one before replacing the WSIU.
