Overview
The BTS3X Base Transceiver Station support 24 extended switching value/digital inputs, 8 digital
outputs, 8 analog inputs, access of EAC and access of PIB power inspection board. The
corresponding physical ports are EAC1 (DB37 female) and EAC2 (DB25 female) on the TDU.
The BTS3X Base collects the external alarm signals and controls the external equipment over
EAC1 and EAC2. It must be pointed out that EAC is different from the extended alarm though it
shares the EAC2 connector with the extended alarm. EAC connects to TMU for communication
by linking EAC2 pin and the bus CBUS3 on TMU. While the extended alarm signals are
switching value signals.
For description simplification, 24-extended switching/digit values are called 24-extended alarm
for short. 24-extended switching/digit inputs, 8 digit outputs, 8 analog inputs, EAC signals, PIB
power inspection signals are called alarm signals for short.

2.1

Connections of Extended Alarm Signals

Connections of Extended Alarm Signals

Both the digital analog input and output are transferred via conductor layout cables to the CMB
over the cabinet top, and then to the TMU via hardware linker between CMB and TMU. TMU
provides the function of alarm collection and signal output. The specific connections are given
below.

1) TMU->CMB: TMU connects to CMB by linking the 96PIN DIN connector XD1 (female)
on TMU and the 96PIN DIN connector XD1/XD2 (male) on CMB.
2) CMB->TDU: CMB transits the 24 digital inputs and the 8 digital outputs from
CMB.XD1/CMB.XD2 to the 40PIN D-connector CMB.J20, and transits the 8 analog inputs from
CMB.XD1/CMB.XD2 to the 14PIN D-connector JP21. With two pairs of 120 twisted-pair cables
(04028314-V0 and 04028304-V0), the CMB transits the 24 digital inputs and the 8 digital outputs to
the 40PIN D-connector TDU.JP17, and the 8 analog inputs to the 14PIN D-connector TDU.JP19.
3) TDU->EAC1/EAC2: TDU transits via its PCB layout the 24 digital inputs and the 8 digital
outputs TDU.JP17 and the 8 analog input on TDU.JP19 to the BTS external interfaces EAC1
(TDU.JP16) and EAC2 (TDU.JP18).

GSM BTS3X Extended Alarm Interface Manual

The pins in blue are 9 signal pins of the 24-extended alarm signal pins. The green are grounding
cables. The EAC_OUT[0..7] in black are 8 digital output pins. The EAC_A_IN[0..7] in black are 8
analog input pins.
EAC1 and EAC2 connects 24-extended alarms: 9 over EAC1 and 15 over EAC2. PIB power inspection
board uses pin 8 and pin 27 of the 24-extended alarms on EAC1.
CBUS3 pin is over EAC2.
EAC1 connects 8 digit outputs and 8 analog inputs.

On EAC2, there are extended alarm pins as well as four EAC pins (CBUS3_TD+/-,
CBUS3_RD+/-). Therefore, it is necessary to perform signal branching at EAC2 if the BTS
connects to both EAC and 24 switching value/digital inputs.

Note: All signal cables from/to EAC1 must pass over EAC signal arrester to ensure operation
security.
The external alarm signals above have several forms of combination, as given below:
1.Connect only 24-extended alarm:
If there are over than one but less than nine alarm signals, you can connect a private cable to
EAC1.
If there are over nine but less than 15 alarm signals, you can connect a private cable to EAC2.
If there are more than 15 alarm signals, you must connect two private cables to EAC1 and EAC2
respectively. Both cables are designed specially for 24-extended alarm, and they can extend 24
signal braches and the corresponding PGND cables. One end of such a cable is a DB connector,
connecting to EAC lightning protector, and the other end is naked, connecting to the extended
alarm socket in DDF. External alarm input cables are connected to the other side of extended
alarm socket in DDF, as shown in Figure 5.

Since PIB power inspection board connects to two of the 24 channels of extended alarm signals,
you can connect the communication cable of the PIB module to the extended alarm socket in
DDF.
If there are less than 15 channels of extended alarm signals, you can connect PIB signal cable to
EAC1 directly, and extended alarm cable to EAC2.

EAC connects to EAC2 port, and PIB connects to EAC1 port.

If there are over 15 channels of extended alarm signals, the cable connection is shown in Figure

If there are less than 9 channels of extended alarm signals and PIB module signals, you can
connect only one 24-extended alarm cable to EAC1 port, and EAC communication cable to
EAC2 port. The DB25 three-way adapter is unnecessary for EAC2 port in this case.

Materiel for Extended Alarm Connection

1. EAC lightning protector
EAC lightning protector (DB25 and DB37): One end of the EAC is a pin, and the other end is a
jack.
When installing EAC, fix the end with a pin on the NodeB EAC port, and then fasten the screws
at both sides to ensure connection reliability.
Any EAC must be installed with a lightening arrester to ensure operation security.
2. T-shape three-way DB25 adapter
T-shape three way DB25 adapter supports PIN-TO-PIN connection. It presents two DB25 female
connectors that are the same to the previous EAC2 pins for EAC2 port.
3. 24-extended alarm cable
Two cables are necessary for 24-extended alarm signals distributed at EAC1 and EAC2. In DB25
connector, there are 15 signal cables and three signal PGND cables. The three signal PGNDs
extend 12 branches to match with the 15 signal cables.
There are nine signal cables and two PGND cables in a DB37 connector. The two PGND cables
extend seven braches to match with the nine signal cables.
4. DDF
DDF in Figure 10 is numbered 02080654 and 02080655, which is the new version designed in
2003. By default, there are no extended alarm sockets in DDF. If it is necessary to support
extended alarm connection, the alarm socket numbered 02080656 must be presented in
delivery.
There are alarm sockets in the DDF of earlier versions, numbered 02080237, but they are not
optimized specially for 24-extended alarm signals.

EAC lightning protector Configuration

1) 24-extended alarm, EAC and PIB are all configured in EAC lightning protector.
2) For BTSs setup before, there are no EAC lightning protector.
Operation instructions: firstly, clarify the importance of EAC lightning protector; secondly,
persuade the office party to purchase the corresponding EAC lightning protector; thirdly, if the
office party has no plan to buy the EAC lightning protector, inform the office party of possible
accidents and reliabilities, and subscribe the corresponding memo about it. Fourthly, present an
EAC lightning protector to the office part if fail to subscribe the memo with the office party.

and

software

version

V300R00210101B04D1120A and their subsequent versions support 24 extended digital signal

inputs. The 24 digital signal inputs can all be used as user-defined pin. Since the extended digital
signal inputs may be used a great lot, the EAC1 interface is recommended when there are less
than 9 extended signal inputs, and the EAC2 interface is used first when there are more than 9
but less than 14 extended signal inputs.

Configuration of 24 Extended Digital Inputs

By setting [clock parameter 1], [clock parameter 2] and [clock parameter 3], one of the 24
extended digital inputs may be shielded. Each bit of the three parameters corresponds to 1
extended digital input. 0 means to shield the alarm and 1 means not.

Note: The parameter EAC2/8 represents pin 8 of EAC2 on the TDU. The rest may be deduced

Whether the alarm is of high-voltage or low-voltage can be set through assigning values for
[alarm level byte 1], [alarm level byte 2] and [alarm level byte 3] in [Site's Extended Parameter].
Likewise, each bit of the three parameters corresponds to an extended digital input.

Configure extended digital inputs by modifying sites extended parameters:
1. As shown in the figure below, activate the BSC Data Auto Configuration System. Select
[BTS/Modify Site's Extended Parameter] to pop up the [Modify Site's Extended Parameter]
window.

2. Select the site to be modified and click <Next> and then [Modify Sites Ext parameter], the
[Modify Sites Ext parameter] window pops up, a.
3. As shown in the figure below, set clock parameters and alarm level definitions in the [Modify
Sites Ext Parameter] window. Make sure that [Extended Switch of Input Alarm] is selected before
modify alarm voltage definitions.
For example, we should have the data set as listed below to open EAC2/1 and EAC2/5 and
shield the other extended alarm ports, and besides, to make EAC2/1 alarm and EAC2/5 alarm
effective at low voltage and high voltage respectively.
Clock parameter 1: 17 (a decimal derived from the binary number 00010001 based on Table 4)

Modifying Alarm Explanation Files

The alarm explanation files must be modified after the extended alarm is adopted. Please refer to
GSM OMC TOOL02 V100R001B01D001 for modification instructions.
