5. Startup:
5.1. New system startup
Note: In order to select the proper configuration file later in this segment, it is necessary to
have knowledge (and preferably a diagram) of the system wiring connections. The diagram
should show:
• PowerBoost
• OVP lower and upper
• cable spans and
• RRH units
• Which PowerBoost channels are connected to which OVP channels and RRH units.
Before applying power, ensure the following:
• The Orion controller is present and fully inserted.
• No boost modules are inserted
• Power input feeds from DC plant have been checked for correct polarity before connecting
to the lug lands. (See Section 4.2: Power input connections)
Turn on only the circuit breaker feeding power input for channels 1-4
• Note: the Orion controller can draw power from either of the bulk input feeds (ch 1-4 or
ch 5-8) and can withstand application of reverse polarity without damage, facilitating its
use to verify correct polarity. Boost modules will be damaged if they are energized with
reverse polarity.
• Verify that the Orion controller touch screen lights up. (Typically it lights up, then shows
“ORION,” then progresses to the default display screen). Allow up to 30 seconds.
• Orion touch screen that lights up is an indication that the input power is connected with
the correct polarity.
• If the Orion touch screen remains dark when the input power is turned on, this is typically
a sign that polarity is reversed. Troubleshoot before proceeding.
• Once the Orion controller has been confirmed to properly light up, turn OFF the circuit
breaker for channels 1-4.
If the system has a second power input feed for channels 5-8, turn on the circuit breaker
feeding those channels.
• Using same approach as in preceeding step, verify that the Orion controller lights up as
expected. Troubleshoot before proceeding.
