PRELIMINARY

6-2

S Effective Rate Power (ERP) table for all TX channels to antennas

respectively. Motorola System Engineering specifies the ERP of a

transmit antenna based on the site geography, antenna placement, and

government regulations. Working from this ERP requirement, the

antenna gain, (dependent on the units of measurement specified) and

antenna feed line loss can be combined to determine the required

power of the BTS. The corresponding BBX–1X output level required

to achieve that power level on any channel/sector can also be

determined.

Refer to the LMF Help function on–line documentation for

additional information on the layout of the LMF directory

structure (including CDF or NEC file locations and

formats).

NOTE

Site Equipage Verification

Review the site documentation. Match the site engineering equipage data

to the actual boards and modules shipped to the site. Physically inspect

and verify the equipment provided for the frame.

Always wear an approved anti–static wrist strap while

handling any circuit card/module to prevent damage by

ESD. After removal, the card/module should be placed on

a conductive surface or back into the anti–static packaging

in which it was shipped.

CAUTION

Initial Installation of

Boards/Modules

Table 6-1: Initial Installation of Boards/Modules

Step Action

1 Refer to the site documentation and, if it was not previously done, slide all boards and modules into

the appropriate shelves as required. DO NOT SEAT the boards and modules at this time.

2 As the actual site hardware is installed, record the serial number of each module on a “Serial Number

Checklist” in the site logbook.
