4.3 Commissioning
Once all connections are made the equipment is ready for commissioning.
To commission the system the test equipment detailed in Section 6.2 will be required.
Using the system diagrams and the end-to-end test specification, the equipment should be
tested to ensure correct operation. Typical RF levels that are not listed in the end-to-end
specification, such as input levels to the fibre transmitters are detailed in the maintenance
section of this manual.
On initial power up the system alarm indicators on the front panels of the equipment should be
checked. A red LED illuminated indicates a fault in that particular tray that must be
investigated before proceeding with the commissioning. A green LED on each shelf
illuminates, to indicate that the power supply is connected to the shelf
In the event that any part of the system does not function correctly as expected, check all
connections to ensure that they are to the correct port, that the interconnecting cables are not
faulty and that they are tightened. The majority of commissioning difficulties arise from
problems with the interconnecting cables and connectors.
