All repairs as well as disassembling and assembling have to be carried out in an ESD
protected environment and with ESD protected equipment/tools. For all activities the
international ESD regulations have to be considered.
For more details please check information in c – market
Every LSO repairing BenQ handset must ensure that the quality standards are observed.
BenQ has developed an automatic testing system that will perform all necessary
measurements. This testing system is known as:
BenQ Mobile Service Equipment
• For disassembling / assembling
Torque – Screwdriver
Part Number: F 30032 – P 228 – A1

• For testing
All mobile phones have to be tested with the GRT – Software. The service partner is
responsible to ensure that all required hardware is available.
For additional Software and Hardware options as well as the supported GRT equipment,
please check the GRT User manual.

The module “printing IMEI label” offers the possibility to re-print IMEI labels for mobiles
again.
You are able to print 1 label in just one step.
To prevent that misaligned labels are being printed, the setting “Print test labels =
9” is
activated by default. After having printed a well aligned test label you can uncheck the
setting and print the correct label.
Hint:
For correct printing of IMEI labels you must have a Zebra – label printer with special
material that fits for label printing. This printer has to be connected to local LPT1 printer port
(also see Installation of IMPRINT) and MUST feature a printing resolution of 300dpi.

The mobile equipment is uniquely identified by the International Mobile Equipment Identity,
IMEI, which consists of 15 digits. Type approval granted to a type of mobile is allocated 6
digits. The final assembly code is used to identify the final assembly plant and is assigned
with 2 digits. 6 digits have been allocated for the equipment serial number for manufacturer
and the last digit is spare.
The part number for the S68 is S30880-S1150-#xxx where the last for letters specify the
housing and software variant.
S68 series IMEI label is accessible by removing the battery.
Re – use of IMEI label is possible by using a hair – dryer to remove the IMEI label.
On this IMEI label, BenQhas also includes the data code for production or service, which
conforms to the industrial standard DIN EN 60062. The data code comprises of 2
characters: first character denotes the year and the second character denotes the month.
For example: S5

The technical instruction for testing GSM mobile phones is to ensure the best repair quality.
Validity
This procedure is to apply for all from Siemens AG authorized level 2 up to 2.5e workshops.
Procedure
All following checks and measurements have to be carried out in an ESD protected
environment and with ESD protected equipment/tools. For all activities the international
ESD regulations have to be considered.
Get delivery:
¾ Ensure that every required information like fault description, customer data a.s.o. is
available.
¾ Ensure that the packing of the defective items is according to packing requirements.
¾ Ensure that there is a description available, how to unpack the defective items and
what to do with them.
Enter data into your database:
(Depends on your application system)
¾ Ensure that every data, which is required for the IRIS-Reporting is available in your
database.
¾ Ensure that there is a description available for the employees how to enter the data.
Incoming check and check after assembling:
!! Verify the customers fault description!!
¾ After a successful verification pass the defective item to the responsible
troubleshooting group.
¾ If the fault description can not be verified, perform additional tests to save time and to
improve repair quality.

line and row, and for illumination.
- Check the ringer/loudspeaker acoustics by individual validation.
- Perform a GSM Test as described on page 36.
Check the storage capability:
¾ Check internal resistance and capacity of the battery.
¾ Check battery charging capability of the mobile phone.
¾ Check charging capability of the power supply.
¾ Check current consumption of the mobile phone in different mode.
Visual inspection:
¾ Check the entire board for liquid damages.
¾ Check the entire board for electrical damages.
¾ Check the housing of the mobile phone for damages.
SW update:
¾ Carry out a software update and data reset according to the master tables and
operator/customer requirements.
Repairs:
The disassembling as well as the assembling of a mobile phone has to be
carried out by considering the rules mentioned in the dedicated manuals. If
special equipment is required the service partner has to use it and to ensure the
correct function of the tools.
If components and especially soldered components have to be replaced all rules
mentioned in dedicated manuals or additional information e.g. service
information have to be considered

With the availability of the GRT Test /Alignment software, this tool has to be used to
perform the outgoing test!
>Connect the mobile/board via internal antenna (antenna coupler) and external antenna
(Car cradle/universal antenna clip) to a GSM tester
>Use a Test SIM
For Triple Band phones use a separate test case, if the test software allows only one
handover.
Skip the GSM Band test cases if not performed by the mobile phone

2) Refer to point 3.3.
3) A random sample checks of:
- Data reset (if required)
- Optical appearance
- complete function
4) check if PIN-Code is activated (delete the PIN-Code if necessary).
Basis is the international standard of DIN ISO 2859.
Use Normal Sample Plan Level II and the Quality Border 0, 4 for LSO.
