 “ShutDown Operation”
4.5.3.1 Reset
Select this option to reset the BTS. To avoid unintentional reset, you will be
prompted to confirm the reset request. Changes to some of the configurable
parameters are applied only after reset.
4.5.3.2 Monitor Inactivity Timeout
The Monitor Inactivity Timeout (min) parameter determines the amount of inactive
time following which the unit automatically exits the Monitor program.
The time out duration can range from 0 to 60 minutes. 0 means no inactivity
timeout.
The default value is 10 minutes.
4.5.3.3 SW Version Control
The BTS can contain two SW versions:
 Operational: Each time the BTS resets it will reboot using the version defined
as Operational.
 Shadow: Normally the Shadow version is the backup version. Each time a new
SW File is downloaded to the BTS, it will be stored as a Shadow version,
replacing the previous Shadow Version.
The typical process of upgrading to a new SW version includes the following steps:
1 Download the new SW File to the BTS. It will be stored as the Shadow version.
2 Reset and run the BTS from its Shadow version. Note that at this stage, if a
reset were to occur, the BTS will return to the previous Operational version.
3 If you want to continue using the new version, swap the Shadow and
Operational versions. The new (currently running) version is now defined as
Operational, and will be used each time the BTS reboots. The previous version
is defined now as Shadow.
Each SW version includes two identifiers:
 SW File, which is the name of the downloaded SW file. This name does not
necessarily include clear identification of the SW version number.
 SW Version, which provides the SW version number.
