3Safety regulations.
The personnel engaged with the installation, the use and the maintenance of the equipment has to be
familiar with the theory and practice of first aid.
3.1 Treatment of electrical shocks.
When the victim loses his consciousness:
Put into practice the following first aid principles.
Position the victim lying down on his back on a rigid surface.
Open the respiratory airways lifting up the neck and pushing down the front (Fig. 1).
If necessary, open the mouth to check the respiration.
In case the victim doesn’t breath, start immediately the artificial respiration (figure 2): bend the
head, close the nostrils, attach the mouth to the victim one’s and do 4 quick mouth-to-mouth
respirations
Figure 1: Resuscitation detail –1.
Figure 2: Resuscitation detail –2.
Check the pulsation (Figure 3); in case of absence of pulsation, start immediately the cardiac
massage (Figure 4) pressing the breastbone in the middle of the thorax (Figure 5).
Figura 1: Resuscitation detail –3.
Figura 2: Resuscitation detail –4.
Figura 3: Resuscitation detail –5.
When there is only one rescuer, he has to maintain a rhythm of 15 compressions alternated with 2
quick respirations.
In case there are two rescuers, the rhythm should be one respiration each 5 compressions.
Do not interrupt the cardiac massage during the artificial breathing
Call a doctor as soon as possible
When the victim is conscious
Cover up the victim with a blanket.
Try to calm down the victim.
Unbutton the cloche and lay down the victim.

REBLE610 Fully indoor Microwave Link
Page 8 of 52 Version 1.4
Call a doctor as soon as possible.
3.2 Treatment of electrical burns.
Large burns and cuts of the skin
Cover up the interested area with a clean sheet or cloth.
Do not open the blisters; remove the fabric and the parts of the clothes attached to the skin; apply
a suitable ointment.
Treat the victim according to the type of accident.
Take the victim to the hospital as soon as possible.
When the arms and legs are affected keep them raised.
When there is no doctor available within an hour and the victim is conscious and does not retch, give a
liquid solution containing salt and sodium bicarbonate: 1 teaspoon of salt and half a teaspoon of sodium
bicarbonate for each 250 ml of water.
Have the victim sip half a glass of the solution for four times and for 15 minutes.
Stop when retching.
Do not give any alcoholics
Less serious burns
Apply cold (not frozen) gauzes using a clean as possible cloth.
Do not open the blisters; remove the fabric and the parts of the clothes attached to the skin; apply
a suitable ointment.
When necessary, put on clean and dry clothes.
Treat the victim according to the type of accident.
Take the victim to the hospital as soon as possible.
When the arms and legs are affected keep them raised.

4General Description.
The REBLE610 is a very flexible microwave link that offers heterogeneous signals transport adapting
transmitting capacity to data stream.
It is the evolution of the already innovative and performing REBLE310, from which is distinguished by an
accurate hardware design, with particular care in the modularity and in avoiding any internal cabling.
The equipment is composed by a basic chassis and four swappable parts that make easy the maintenance
process and the always critical frequency change; a dual redundant power supply, hot swappable, is
present, available both in AC and DC version. A slot with the digital part (modem and data interface) has
been realized, as well as a module hosting the whole RF part (transmitter, receiver and channel filters).
The transmitters (at different frequencies) have been improved, being able to give always at least 1W at
output flange in any modulation scheme, introducing pre-correction and wideband calibration (up to 1 GHz,
depending on the frequency).
Data interface is equipped with 10 ASI/BTS ports on BNC connectors, configurable as input or output; this
feature let have in a single chassis the functions of an ASI matrix and an ASI distributor, both in input and
output. The link let also transfer IP traffic on a GbE port, an E1 2.048 Kbps signal and a “transit” connection
(just not to use too many coaxial cables for the transit).
With the optional XPIC module (and another REBLE610), it is possible to double the capacity of the link,
transmitting both in polarization H and V, erasing the undesired signal with special algorithms.
The compactness (1U rack 19”) is one of the main features, together with the care in the details for an easy
installation and maintenance, and the outstanding performances in terms of power, sensitivity and notch
tolerance.
The equipment can be half duplex (transmitter or receiver) or full-duplex.

6Installation.
Unpack the equipment and check first of all check if there are any damages due to the transport.
The box should contain:
oThe REBLE610
o1 or two AC supply cable (depending on number and type of power supplies purchased)
o1 or two DC supply cable, equipment adapted connector on one side, free wires at other
end (depending on number and type of power supplies purchased)
oThe user manual
Install the equipment in a rack cabinet. A one-unit space is requested. Verify that there is enough
space between other functioning equipment generating high temperatures and that there are no
obstructions in the ventilation. (The functioning is guaranteed in a temperature range from -10 ºC ÷
+55 ºC).
The equipment must be correctly grounded, to guarantee a secure functioning.
Connect to the correct power tension reading the information on the manual or on the label
attached to each equipment, containing the serial number.
Connect the network cable to the plug on the rear of the equipment or connect the battery cable to
the related connector. The last used configuration will be loaded.
Connect the flange(s) on the rear panel (or N connectors, depending on frequencies) of the
equipment to the waveguide/cable for the connection to the branching system and the antenna.
Setup the equipment according to the needs consulting the user manual.
7User interface.
The user interface consists of a general alarm led and a graphical TFT display with TOUCH SCREEN function
(for more comfortable use, a stick is available in a compartment located in the front panel , see 9.1).
According to equipment configuration (Half-duplex transmitter[Tx], Half-duplex receiver [Rx], Full-
duplex[FD]), just the related menu are shown.
In order to have a read/write privilege and thus modify the configuration of the equipment, it’s required
the connection of a USB pen with the right token to the USB port in the front panel; on the other end, it’s
required to digit a numeric password while trying to modify one parameter (the password is tied to the
customer’s name and it’s notified at delivery).

7.4 Menu Modem (Modem uC).
The modem menu is composed by a series of pages that let the user monitor and configure main
parameters of both modulator and demodulator. Directional arrows allow the browsing in the menu.
The modem configuration is managed uploading configuration files that can be checked through user
interface.

Modulator section reports just the Symbol Rate measure, which should be the same of the database one.
See par. 8.4.1 for more details.
Demodulator section reports 5 measurements:
1. Carrier Offset shows the difference in Hz from the frequency of the detected carrier and the
reference (0 Hz). Being the system a direct frequency conversion system, this parameter is very
important to avoid heavy imbalances of both I and Q baseband paths. An automatic frequency
control process (AFC) is always active to compensate possible RF oscillator drifts due to aging, to
the temperature or other factors.
2. LDPC shows the Bit Error Rate detected by the LDPC decoder.
3. AGC indicates the digital automatic gain control level. The measurement is not indicative in case of
equipment bad functioning.
4. The MSE (Mean Square Error) is a measurement of the microwave link C/N. Depending on the
modulation, there are different critical levels of MSE. Please contact the manufacture or refer to
test reports to check the MSE limit of the desired configuration and profile.
5. S. Rate shows the demodulated raw data bitrate.
7.4.3.1 Modem measurements menu - XPIC.
If modem configuration includes the XPIC function, in every measurements page, located at the upper right
corner, a directional arrow is shown (Figure 25, Figure 26 and Figure 27); clicking on this arrow, the user
gets in menu shown in Figure 28, Figure 29 and Figure 30.
