1.1.1 Purposes of Routine Maintenance
Normal system operation of ODU3601C in different running environment depends on
effective routine maintenance. ODU3601C routine maintenance is intended to detect
and solve problems in due time to prevent trouble.
1.1.2 Classification of Routine Maintenance Operations
I. Classification by implementing methods
l Conventional maintenance
This method is applied on regular basis to observe the operation of the system, test
and analyze equipment performance.
l Unconventional maintenance
The unconventional method is to test whether the system performance has degraded
by artificially creating some faults. For example, maintenance engineers may
artificially create some faults and test if the alarm system reports alarm correctly.
II. Classification by period length
l Unscheduled maintenance
This includes the maintenance operations performed at equipment fault or network
adjustment. For example, maintenance tasks performed due to by user complaint,
damage of equipment and line fault. Solving of problems left over by daily
maintenance operations is also regarded as unscheduled maintenance operation.
l Daily maintenance
It refers to the maintenance tasks conducted each day. ODU3601C daily
maintenance helps maintenance engineers keep track of the operating conditions of
the equipment at any moment so that problems can be solved in time. When a
problem is detected in daily maintenance, record it in detail to help eliminate it in time.
