NOTE

When copying CDF files, comply with the following to prevent

BTS login problems with the LMF.

- The numbers used in the bts-#.cdf and cbsc-#.cdf filenames

must correspond to the locally assigned numbers for each BTS

and its controlling CBSC.

- The generic cbsc-1.cdf file supplied with the LMF will work

with locally numbered BTS CDF files. Using this file will not

provide a valid optimization unless the generic file is edited to

replace default parameters (e.g., channel numbers) with the

operational parameters used locally.

The procedure in Table 3-4 lists the steps required to transfer the CDF

files from the CBSC to the LMF computer. For any further information,

refer to the CDMA LMF Operator’s Guide (Motorola part number

68P64114A21) or the LMF Help screen..

Table 3-4: Copying CBSC CDF Files to the LMF

Step Action

1 Login to the CBSC workstation.

2 Insert a DOS-formatted floppy diskette in the workstation drive.

3 Type eject -q and press <Enter>.

4 Type mount and press <Enter>.

NOTE

 Look for the “floppy/no_name” message on the last line displayed.

 If the eject command was previously entered, floppy/no_name will be appended with a number. Use

the explicit floppy/no_name reference displayed when performing step 7.

5 Change to the directory, where the files to be copied reside, by typing cd <directoryname>

(e.g., cd bts-248) and pressing <Enter>.

6 Type ls and press the Enter key to display the list of files in the directory.

7 With Solaris versions of Unix, create DOS-formatted versions of the bts-#.cdf and cbsc-#.cdf files

on the diskette by entering the following command:

unix2dos <source filename> /floppy/no_name/<target filename>

(e.g., unix2dos bts-248.cdf /floppy/no_name/bts-248.cdf).

NOTE

 Other versions of Unix do not support the unix2dos and dos2unix commands. In these cases, use the

Unix cp (copy) command. The copied files will be difficult to read with a DOS or Windows text

editor because Unix files do not contain line feed characters. Editing copied CDF files on the LMF

computer is, therefore, not recommended.

 Using cp, multiple files can be copied in one operation by separating each filename to be copied

with a space and ensuring the destination directory (floppy/no_name) is listed at the end of the

command string following a space (e.g., cp bts-248.cdf cbsc-6.cdf /floppy/na_name)

8 Repeat steps 5 through 7 for each bts-# that must be supported by the LMF.
