6-8 1X SC480 BTS Hardware Installation, Optimization/ATP, and FRU MAY 2004

PRELIMINARY

WinLMF Features and

Installation Requirements

Before optimization can be performed, the WinLMF application software

must be installed and configured on a computer platform meeting

Motorola–specified requirements.

For the WinLMF graphics to display properly, the

computer platform must be configured to display more

than 256 colors. See the operating system software

instructions for verifying and configuring the display

settings.

NOTE

Software and files for installing and updating the WinLMF are provided

on CD ROM disks. The following items must be available:

S WinLMF application program on CD ROM

S CDF/NECF for each supported BTS (on diskette or available from the

CBSC)

S CBSC File for each supported BTS (on floppy disk or CD ROM)

FTP Server

To be able to download files to the GLI3, the WinLMF now runs FTP

server on the WinLMF laptop. The WinLMF FTP server runs from the

LMFs home directory. All the files necessary to run the WinLMF FTP

server are installed from the WinLMF CD. The FTP server is

automatically started by the WinLMF upon successful Login to a Packet

BTS.

In addition, the WinLMF provides a new option in the Tools menu called

FTP Server. The option starts the LMFs FTP server if Start is selected,

and stops the server if Stop is selected. The LMFs FTP server runs on

port 21. If any other process is using that port, the error message is

displayed to the user stating that the port is occupied. There is another

option under FTP Server menu called FTP Monitor, which allows the

user to watch FTP activity b/w the WinLMF and GLI.

Firewalls

Firewalls will block the FTP requests from the Packet GLI to the

WinLMF laptop. You must disable your firewall before attempting the

BTS Synch command. Some common firewall programs to look for

include Network ICE, BlackICE, Norton’s Desktop Firewall, Enterprise

Firewall, and Personal Firewall.
