This document is intend to be a guide for localizing and repairing electrical faults in RAE–2 device. First there is short guide for fault localizing.
Then fault repairing is divided into three troubleshooting paths, each per
any module. Needed equipments are present before any actions.
Before any service operation you must be familiar with RAE–2 product
and module level architecture. You must also be familiar with RAE–2
specified service tools like the WinTesla service software, Flashing tools
and softwares. Basic skills of using RF measurement devices are required when you are starting to follow RF troubleshooting paths.
General
When you have a faulty RAE–2 device and you are starting troubleshooting it, check first the following basics.
Troubleshooting
–
Device hasn’t any mechanical damage.
– Device, especially connectors, are not dirty or moist.
– Screws are tightened as specificed.
– Battery voltage is high enough (nominal battery voltage is 3.6V).
– Current consumption is in normal area (this can be checked with Service Battery
Note1: CMT peak current consumption might be 5x more than is specified above.
Finding faulty module
CMT mode (CMT current)
Then you define the faulty module. Normally this isn’t difficult because
the RAE–2 device has three quite independent modules; CMT, PDA and
UI.
If you can’t conclude which is the faulty module, try to program new software to the RAE–2. Usually when a module has a real fault also its programming fails. If programming succeeds, it means that the CMT and

Troubleshooting
PDA modules basically work and the fault might be in UI module or flex
connectors between PDA and UI module. Before CMT programming
check that PDA goes to the ReLink mode (use BBS–5 service battery).
After that you can replace the faulty module with the reference (Golden
Sample) module and be sure that module is really faulty. Alternatively
you can change the suspected faulty module to the reference RAE–2 device. After this cross–checking you should have found certainty about the
faulty module(s) and you can start to study module level problems.

CMT Troubleshooting
The following hints should facility finding the cause of the problem when
the CMT circuitry seems to be faulty. This troubleshooting instruction is
divided in main level to BaseBand and RF faults.
The first thing to do is carry out a through visual check of the module. Ensure in particular that there are not any mechanical damages and soldered joints are OK. If the CMT module is able to communicate with WinTesla software, you can use it to find out faulty circuits from CMT module.
Selftest checks all CMT baseband Asics and memory components and
reports the result as passed or failed. If every test is passed, you can
perform different kind of calibration and tuning operations and deduce
which is the faulty circuit.
Baseband faults
At least the following measurement devices are needed for fault debugging in BaseBand section:
Troubleshooting
– PC for the Wintesla with software protection key (dongle)
– RS–232 cable (DAU –9C)
– Repairing jig MJS–4
– Flashing Tools FLA–7, FPS–4 and TDF–4
– Service Battery BBS–5
– Calibration Unit JBE–1
– power supply, digital multimeter and oscilloscope

Power doesn’t stay on or phone is jammed
Normally the power will be switched off by CCONT (N110) after 30 seconds, if the watchdog of the CCONT can not be served by software. The
watchdog updating can be seen by oscilloscope at pin 50 (DataselX) of
CCONT. In normal case there is a short pulse from ”1” –> 0 every 8 seconds.
The power off function of CCONT can be prevented by connecting a short
circuit wire from CCONT pin 29 (or J113) to ground.

Display Information: Contact Service
This fault means that software is able to run and thus the watchdog of
CCONT (N110) can be served. Selftest functions are run when power is
switched on and the software is started to execute from flash. If any of the
self–tests fails, Contact Service text will be shown on the display. Find
out which circuit is faulty using the WinTesla software (select from Testing
menu item Self Tests... and WinTesla shows which circuit are not passed
selftests).
The phone doesn’t register to the network or phone doesn’t make a call
If the phone does not register to the network or the phone does not make
a call, the reason could be either the baseband or the RF part. The phone
can be set to wanted mode by WinTesla service software and determinate
if the fault is in RF or in baseband part (RF interface measurements).
The control lines for RF part are supplied both the System Asic (MAD2;
D200) and the RFI (Cobba; N250). MAD2 handles the digital control lines
(like synthe, TxP etc.) and Cobba handles the analog control lines (like
AFC, TxC etc.).
The DSP software is constructed so that the operation states of DSP
(MAD2) can be seen in external flag (DSPXF) output pin (J222). After
power up, the DSP signals all completed functions by changing the state
of the XF pin.

SIM card is out of order
The hardware of the SIM interface from the MAD2 (D200) to the SIM connector (X150) can be tested without SIM card. When the power is
switched on and if the BSI line (X160;2) is grounded by resistor, all the
used lines (VSIM, RST, CLK, DATA) rise up to 5 V four times. Thus ”In-sert SIM card” faults can be found without SIM card. The fault information ”Card rejected” means that the ATR message (the first message is
always sent from card to phone) is sent from card to phone but the message is somehow corrupted, data signal levels are wrong etc. or factory
set values (stored to the EEPROM) are not correct.

Flash programming doesn’t work
The flash programming is done over the system connector X170.
In flash programming error cases the flash prommer can give some in-
formation about a fault. The fault information messages could be:
–MCU doesn’t boot
– Serial clock line failure
– Serial data line failure
– External RAM fault
– Algorithm file or alias ID don’t find
– MCU flash Vpp error
In cases that the flash programming doesn’t succeed there is a possibility
to check short circuits between the memories and the MCU (MAD2).This
test is useful to do, when the fault information is:
MCU doesn’t boot,
Serial clock line failure or
Serial data line failure.
Troubleshooting
The test procedure is following:
1. Connect the short circuit wire between the test points J229 and ground.
2. Switch power on
3. If the voltage level in testpoint J203 is 2.8 V (”1”), the interface is OK. If
there is a short circuit, the voltage level in testpoint J203 stays low and
32kHz square wave signal can be seen in the lines which are already tested.
One must be noticed that this test can be found only short circuits, not
open pins. Also upper data lines (15:8) of flash circuit D210 are not included to this test.
