7. Common Failure Analysis and Troubleshooting

Failure phenomenon

Failure cause

Solution

Power on, the front panel display screen and power Indicator are both off.

Switch powering power supply couldn’t start; equipment; internal DC power supply is not working.

Check if the power supply is normal (should be AC: 110V-250V). If the Supply voltage is normal, it could be a Failure of switching power supply module. Please contact the dealer or our company

Power on, the display screen is off, only the power indicator is on.

The internal microprocessor is not working.

Please contact the dealer or our company.

Power on; the optical output power displayed on the front panel display screen and laser status indicator are both normal, but the actual measured optical output power is low.

1. The poor quality of the test jumper.

2. The active fiber connector or adapter may be contaminated.

3. The ceramic tube in the adapter may have been broken.

1. Replace with good quality test jumper.

2. Clean the contaminated active fiber connector or adapter. Specific operation methods see "The clean and maintenance method of optical fiber connector".

3. Replace the damaged adapter.

After initial startup, the image of the optical contact point has obvious netlike curve or large particles highlights.

1. The received optical power of the optical contact point is too high; the output level of the optical receiver module is too high and intermodulation index of RF signal deteriorates.

2. The RF signal input of the optical transmitter is too high; beyond the device AGC control range, results in deterioration of the intermodulation index.

3. The intermodulation index of RF signal input of the optical transmitter itself is poor.

1. Check the receiver optical power of the optical contact point and make appropriate adjustments.

2. Check the input level of the optical transmitter RF signal, and adjust to

the device required input range. (RF signal input level should be

72-88dBµV).

3. Check the intermodulation index of the RF signal input of the optical transmitter

And make appropriate adjustments.

After initial startup, the image of the optical contact point has obvious noises.

1. The received optical power of the optical contract point is not high enough, results in decrease of C/N.

2. The RF signal level input of the optical transmitter is too low; make modulation degree of the laser is not enough.

3. The C/N index of system link signal is too low.

1. Recover received optical power of the optical contract point by cleaning the active fiber connector or. Specific operation methods see “Clean and maintenance methods of optical fiber connector”.

2. Check the RF signal level input of the optical transmitter and adjust to the device required input range. (72--88dBµV). When the input channel number less than 15, set to the MGC control mode.

3. Use a spectrum analyzer to check the system link C/N and make appropriate adjustment. Make sure the system link Signal C/N > 51dB.

After initial startup, the image of several optical contact points randomly appear obvious noises or bright trace.

The optical contact point has open circuit signal interference or strong interference signal intrusions.

1. Check if there is a strong interference signal source; change the optical contact point location if possible to avoid the influence of strong interference signal sources.

2. Check the cable lines before the optical contact point, the shielding net or the RF connector shielding effect is not good.

3. Close the equipment enclosure tightly to ensure the shielding effect; if possible add shielding cover to the optical contact point and reliable grounding.

After initial startup, at optical contact points, the image of several channels have obvious noises.

The C/N indexes of these channels are too low.

Check the C/N of these channels signal and make appropriate adjustments.

After initial startup, the image of several optical contact points appear one or two horizontal bright traces.

Power supply AC ripple interference because of the bad earth of equipment or power

supply.

Check grounding situation of the equipment; make sure that every equipment in the line has been reliably grounding and the grounding resistance is < 4 Ω .

After initial startup, the received optical power of the optical contact point is unstable and has large continuous change. The RF output signal is unstable too. But the detected optical output power of the optical transmitter is normal.

The fiber connector types do not match, maybe the APC type connect to PC type, make the optical signal cannot normal transmission. The active fiber connector or adapter may be contaminated seriously or the adapter has been broken.

1. Check the fiber connector type; adopt the APC type fiber connector to ensure the normal transmission of optical signal.

2. Clean the contaminated active fiber connector or adapter. Specific operation methods see "The clean and maintenance method of optical fiber connector".

3. Replace the damaged adapter.

The Clean and Maintenance Method of Optical Fiber Connector

In many times, we consider the decline of the optical power as the equipment faults, but actually it may

be caused by that the optical fiber connector was polluted by dust or dirt. Inspect the fiber connector,

component, or bulkhead with a fiberscope. If the connector is dirty, clean it with a cleaning technique following

these steps:

1. Turn off the device power supply and carefully pull off the optical fiber connector from the adapter.

2. Wash carefully with good quality lens wiping paper and medical absorbent alcohol cotton. If use the medical absorbent alcohol cotton, still need to wait 1-2 minutes after wash, let the connector surface dry in the air.

3. Cleaned optical connector should be connected to optical power meter to measure optical output power to affirm whether it has been cleaned up.

4. When the cleaned optical connector screwed back to adapter, should notice to make force appropriate to avoid ceramic tube in the adapter crack.

5. The optical fiber connector should be cleaned in pairs. If optical power is on the low side after clean, the adapter may be polluted, clean it. (Note: Adapter should be carefully operated, so as to avoid hurting inside fiber.

6. Use compressed air or degrease alcohol cotton to wash the adapter carefully. When use compressed air, the muzzle aims at china tube of the adapter, clean the china tube with compressed air. When use degrease alcohol cotton, insert directions need be consistent, otherwise can't reach a good clean effect.

Special notice:

a. In the process of clean the active optical fiber connector, you should avoid direct shining at eye, which will cause permanence burn!!!! b. Use proper energy to install the active optical connector, or the ceramic tape in the adaptor will lead to break. Once the ceramic tape is broken, the optical output power will decrease rapidly. And turn the active optical fiber connector slightly, the optical output power changes obviously. c. Please operate the optical fiber under the condition of shut off the pump laser. Or the high output power will lead to burn the ioint of the optical output fiber, which will cause the output power decrease.

Changes of the equipment lead to some disagree with this manual, without notice.
