For 12 alarm connection ,we need 37 pin D connector in which 24 pins will be
used.
For each alarm , we require one pair E1 cable having two wire
Termination of these cable is done on DDF i.e from BTS to DDF and from alarm
sensor to DDF.
INTERNAL ALARMS
TGC FAULT No active TGC application exists in the Transceiver Group.
PERMANENT FAULT A managed object is classified as being permanently faulty when fault
situations have occurred, and have been cleared, a certain number of times within a certain
period of time. Manual intervention is required to bring such equipment back into operation.
LOCAL MODE The BTS equipment is in Local Mode or the BTS equipment has changed from
Local to Remote Mode and a fault exists in the communication link between the BSC and the
BTS. Communication between the BSC and the BTS is not possible.
LMT INTERVENTION Local maintenance activities are being performed in the BTS.
LOOP TEST FAILED Test of the traffic carrying capabilities of the TS has failed.
BTS INTERNAL There is a fault internal to the BTS.
MAINS FAILURE There is a fault in the power supply to the BTS or one or more items of
equipment within the BTS. Battery backup (where available) is in use. Escalation may occur if
corrective action is not taken.
BTS EXTERNAL There is a fault external to the BTS.
OML FAULT There is a fault in the communications link between the BSC and BTS.
ABIS PATH UNAVAIL No transmission device exists between the BSC and BTS.
CON QUEUE CONGESTION At least one of the LAPD Concentrator concentration outlet queues
has reached an unacceptable filling level.
TS SYNC FAULT Synchronization lost on uplink or downlink TRA or PCU channels.
FORLOPP RELEASE A fault has occurred within the BSC software leading to a Forlopp release.
Automatic recovery procedures are taking place. Report to your Ericsson Support Office.
Alternatively, this alarm is issued as an advisory following a command ordered Forlopp release
of a TG. In either case, the alarm is automatically ceased following successful recovery.
OPERATOR CONDITION A condition has arisen due to operator intervention
