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).
BBXs are OOS_RAM (yellow).
Test cables are calibrated.
Test equipment is connected for ATP tests (see Figure 3-14 through
Figure 3-18 starting on page 3-52).
Test equipment has been warmed up 60 minutes and calibrated.
GPIB is on.
BTS transmit connectors are properly terminated for the test(s) to be
performed.
WARNING
Before performing the FER, be sure that all LPAs are turned
OFF (circuit breakers pulled) or that all transmitter ports are
properly terminated.
All transmit ports must be properly terminated for all ATP tests.
Failure to observe these warnings may result in bodily injury or
equipment damage.
TX OUT Connection
NOTE
Many of the acceptance test procedures require taking
measurements at the TX OUT (BTS/RFDS) connector. At sites
without RFDS installed, all measurements will be via the BTS
TX OUT connector. At sites with RFDS installed, all
measurements will be via the RFDS directional coupler TX
OUT connector.
ATP Tests
The tests can be run individually or as one of the following groups:
All TX/RX: Executes all the TX and RX tests.
All TX: TX tests verify the performance of the BTS transmit line up.
These include the GLI, MCC, BBX, and CIO cards, the LPAs and
passive components including splitters, combiners, bandpass filters,
and RF cables.
