Using CDMA LMF 68P09255A61-4 Using CDMA LMF Basic LMF Operation The CDMA LMF allows the user to work in the two following operating environments, which are accessed using the specified desktop icon: Graphical User Interface (GUI) using the WinLMF icon Command Line Interface (CLI) using the WinLMF CLI icon The GUI is the primary optimization and acceptance testing operating environment.
Using CDMA LMF 68P09255A61-4 Command Line Interface Overview The LMF also provides Command Line Interface (CLI) capability. Activate the CLI by clicking on a shortcut icon on the desktop. The CLI can not be launched from the GUI, only from the desktop icon. Both the GUI and the CLI use a program known as the handler. Only one handler can be running at one time Due to architectural limitations, the GUI must be started before the CLI if you want the GUI and CLI to use the same handler.
Using CDMA LMF 68P09255A61-4 Logging into a BTS NOTE Be sure that the correct bts-#.cdf and cbsc-#.cdf file is used for the BTS. These should be the CDF files that are provided for the BTS by the CBSC. Failure to use the correct CDF files can result in invalid optimization. Failure to use the correct CDF files to log into a live (traffic carrying) site can shut down the site. Logging into a BTS establishes a communications link between the BTS and the CDMA LMF.
Using CDMA LMF 68P09255A61-4 Table 3-7: BTS GUI Login Procedure Step Action 4 Click on the desired BTS number. 5 Click on the Network Login tab (if not already in the forefront). 6 Enter the correct IP address (normally 128.0.0.2 for a field BTS) if not correctly displayed in the IP Address box. NOTE 128.0.0.2 is the default IP address for MGLI-1 in field BTS units. 128.0.0.1 is the default IP address for MGLI-2.
Using CDMA LMF 68P09255A61-4 BTS Login from the CLI Environment Follow the procedure in Table 3-8 to log into a BTS when using the CLI environment. NOTE The GUI and CLI environments use the same connection to a BTS. If a GUI and the CLI session are running for the same BTS at the same time, logging out of the BTS in either environment will log out of it for both. When either a login or logout is performed in the CLI window, there is no GUI indication that logout has occurred.
Using CDMA LMF 68P09255A61-4 Logging Out Logging out of a BTS is accomplished differently for the GUI and the CLI operating environments. NOTE 3 The GUI and CLI environments use the same connection to a BTS. If a GUI and the CLI session are running for the same BTS at the same time, logging out of the BTS in either environment will log out of it for both. When either a login or logout is performed in the CLI window, there is no GUI indication that logout has occurred.
Using CDMA LMF 68P09255A61-4 Logging Out of a BTS from the CLI Environment Follow the procedure in Table 3-9 to logout of a BTS when using the CLI environment. Table 3-10: BTS CLI Logout Procedure Step Action NOTE If the BTS is also logged into from a GUI running at the same time and further work must be done with it in the GUI, proceed to step 2. 1 Logout of a BTS by entering the following command: logout bts- A response similar to the following is displayed: LMF> 12:22:58.
Using CDMA LMF 68P09255A61-4 Establishing an MMI Communication Session For those procedures that require MMI communications between the LMF and BTS FRUs, follow the procedure in Table 3-11 to initiate the communication session. NOTE If the LMF GUI is running and the LMF is logged into a BTS, the LMF cannot initiate a hyperterminal session on the COM port normally used to communicate with the test equipment.
Download the BTS 68P09255A61-4 Download the BTS Download the BTS - Overview Before a BTS can operate, each equipped device must contain device initialization (ROM) code. ROM code is loaded in all devices during manufacture or factory repair. Device application (RAM) code and data must be downloaded to each equipped device by the user before the BTS can be made fully functional for the site where it is installed.
Download the BTS 68P09255A61-4 Download Code to Devices Code can be downloaded to a device that is in any state. After the download starts, the device being downloaded changes to OOS_ROM (blue). If the download is completed successfully, the device changes to OOS_RAM with code loaded (yellow). Prior to downloading a device, a code file must exist. The code file is selected automatically if the code file is in the /lmf/cdma/n.n.n.n/code folder (where n.n.n.
Download the BTS 68P09255A61-4 Download Code and Data to Non-GLI Devices Non-GLI devices can be downloaded individually or all equipped devices can be downloaded with one action. Follow the procedure in Table 3-13 to download code and data to the non-GLI devices. NOTE - When downloading multiple devices, the download may fail for some of the devices (a time out occurs). These devices can be downloaded separately after completing the multiple download. - CSM devices are RAM code-loaded at the factory.
Download the BTS 68P09255A61-4 Select CSM Clock Source A CSM can have three different clock sources. The Clock Source function can be used to select the clock source for each of the three inputs. This function is only used if the clock source for a CSM needs to be changed.
Download the BTS 68P09255A61-4 The BTS may be equipped with a remote GPS, LORAN-C LFR, HSO 10 MHz Rubidium source, or HSOX for expansion frames, which the CSM can use as a secondary timing reference. In all cases, the CSM monitors and determines what reference to use at a given time. NOTE - CSMs are code loaded at the factory. This data is retained in EEPROM. The download code procedure is required in the event it becomes necessary to code load CSMs with updated software versions.
Download the BTS 68P09255A61-4 Enable MCCs This procedure configures the MCC and sets the “TX fine adjust” parameter. The “TX fine adjust” parameter is not a transmit gain setting, but a timing adjustment that compensates for the processing delay in the BTS (approximately 3 ms). Follow the procedure in Table 3-16 to enable the MCCs. NOTE The MGLI and primary CSM must be downloaded and enabled (IN-SERVICE ACTIVE) before downloading and enabling the MCC.
CSM System Time/GPS and LFR/HSO Verification 68P09255A61-4 CSM System Time/GPS and LFR/HSO Verification CSM & LFR Background The primary function of the Clock Synchronization Manager (CSM) boards (slots 1 and 2) is to maintain CDMA system time. The CSM in slot 1 is the primary timing source while slot 2 provides redundancy. The CSM2 card (CSM second generation) is required when using the remote GPS receiver (R-GPS). R-GPS uses a GPS receiver in the antenna head that has a digital output to the CSM2 card.
CSM System Time/GPS and LFR/HSO Verification 68P09255A61-4 Low Frequency Receiver/ High Stability Oscillator The CSM handles the overall configuration and status monitoring functions of the LFR/HSO. In the event of GPS failure, the LFR/HSO is capable of maintaining synchronization initially established by the GPS reference signal. The LFR requires an active external antenna to receive LORAN RF signals.
CSM System Time/GPS and LFR/HSO Verification 68P09255A61-4 CSM Frequency Verification The objective of this procedure is the initial verification of the CSM boards before performing the RF path verification tests.

Bay Level Offset Calibration 68P09255A61-4 Bay Level Offset Calibration Introduction to Bay Level Offset Calibration Calibration compensates for normal equipment variations within the BTS and assures maximum measurement accuracy. RF Path Bay Level Offset Calibration Calibration identifies the accumulated gain in every transmit path (BBX slot) at the BTS site and stores that value in a BLO database calibration table in the LMF. The BLOs are subsequently downloaded to each BBX.
Bay Level Offset Calibration 68P09255A61-4 TX Path Calibration The TX Path Calibration assures correct site installation, cabling, and the first order functionality of all installed equipment. The proper function of each RF path is verified during calibration. The external test equipment is used to validate/calibrate the TX paths of the BTS. WARNING Before installing any test equipment directly to any TX OUT connector you must first verify that there are no CDMA channels keyed.
Bay Level Offset Calibration 68P09255A61-4 The calibration data for a BBX is organized as a large flat array.

Automated Acceptance Test Procedures - All-inclusive TX & RX 68P09255A61-4 Automated Acceptance Test Procedures - All-inclusive TX & RX Introduction The Automated Acceptance Test Procedure (ATP) allows Cellular Field Engineers (CFEs) to run automated acceptance tests on all equipped BTS subsystem devices using the Local Maintenance Facility (LMF) and supported test equipment per the current Cell Site Data File (CDF) assignment.
68P09255A61-4 Automated Acceptance Test Procedures - All-inclusive TX & RX Reduced ATP NOTE Equipment has been factory-tested for FCC compliance. If license-governing bodies require documentation supporting SITE compliance with regulations, a full ATP may be necessary. Perform the Reduced ATP only if reports for the specific BTS site are NOT required. After downloading the proper operational software to the BTS, the CFE must perform these procedures (minimal recommendation): 1.
Automated Acceptance Test Procedures - All-inclusive TX & RX 68P09255A61-4 ATP Test Prerequisites Before attempting to run any ATP tests, ensure the following have been completed: BTS has been optimized and calibrated (see Chapter 3). LMF is logged into the BTS. CSMs, GLIs, BBXs, MCCs, and TSU (if the RFDS is installed) have correct code load and data load. Primary CSM, GLI, and MCCs are INS_ACT (bright green). BBXs are calibrated and BLOs are downloaded. No BBXs are keyed (transmitting).
68P09255A61-4 Automated Acceptance Test Procedures - All-inclusive TX & RX All RX: RX tests verify the performance of the BTS receiver line up. These include the MPC (for starter frames), EMPC (for expansion frames), CIO, BBX, MCC, and GLI cards and the passive components including RX filters (starter frame only), and RF cables. Full Optimization: Executes the TX calibration, downloads the BLO, and executes the TX audit before running all of the TX and RX tests.

Operating Frequency - North American PCS Bands 68P09255A61-4 Operating Frequency - North American PCS Bands Introduction Programming of each of the BTS BBX synthesizers is performed by the BTS GLIs via the CHI bus. This programming data determines the transmit and receive transceiver operating frequencies (channels) for each BBX. 1900 MHz PCS Channels Figure E-1 shows the valid channels for the North American PCS 1900 MHz frequency spectrum.

Introduction 68P09255A61-4 Introduction Purpose This procedure is a guide to expanding your system with multiple carriers while the system remains in service. This procedure also allows you to perform on site maintenance (replace defective boards and recalibrate) while the remainder of the site stays in service. Motorola recommends that you perform this procedure during a maintenance window. This procedure cannot be performed on BTSs with 4-to-1 combiners.
Power Delta Calibration 68P09255A61-4 Power Delta Calibration Power Delta Calibration Introduction The In-service calibration procedure has several differences from a normal calibration procedure. One of these is the use of a spectrum analyzer instead of a power meter to measure power. Power meters are broadband measurement devices and cannot be used to measure power during In-service Calibration since other carriers are operating.
Power Delta Calibration 68P09255A61-4 Table I-1: HP8921A Power Delta Calibration Procedure Step Action 7 Ensure that the source HP8921A settings are the same as in Step 2. 8 Set the measuring HP8921A as follows: - Measure mode to CDMA Anl - Frequency to the CDMA calibration target frequency - Input Attenuation to 0 dB - Input port to RF-IN - Gain to Auto - Analyzer Direction to Fwd 9 Turn on the source HP8921A signal output.
