Verify GLI3 Software Version
and Span Parameter Settings
Software Version Verification – Before upgrading a BTS to packet
backhaul with an IBR, the software version installed in the GLI3 card or
cards must be verified. If the installed software version does not support
IBR functionality, it must be upgraded to a version which does. For BTS
sites which are already in operation, the upgrade can be done through a
network download to the GLI3 once it is installed. For cards to be
installed in new BTS sites not previously in operation, the upgrade
requires special procedures, and must be done with Motorola Field
Operations or Account Team assistance.
Span Parameter Settings – Prior to initializing a GLI3 card for the first
time in a live circuit BTS or IBR packet BTS site, the span parameter
settings in the card must be verified as matching those provisioned in the
OMC–R database. If the settings are not correct, the card will be unable
to communicate with the RAN network elements and the site will not go
into service. Procedures are included in this section to change the GLI3
card span parameter settings if this is necessary to match those required
for the BTS.
Required Items
The following items are required to perform the verification:
S Local Maintenance Facility (LMF) computer with the LMF
application program version installed which is compatible with the
software release installed on the BSS refer to Chapter 6

(see the MMI Cable Fabrication Section of Appendix D for
fabrication instructions and Figure 6-9 for connection)
– SLN2006A MMI Interface Kit (this kit is no longer available to
order), consisting of the following:
–– Motorola Model TRN9666A null modem board
–– Motorola 3009786R01 MMI cable or equivalent
S (For use with SLN2006A only) Straight–through RS–232 cable,
