ROM code can be downloaded to a device that is in any state. After the
download is started, the device being downloaded will change to
OOS_ROM (blue). The device will remain OOS_ROM (blue) when the
download is completed. A compatible revision-level RAM code must
then be downloaded to the device. Compatible code loads for ROM and
RAM must be used for the device type to ensure proper performance.
The compatible device code release levels for the BSS software release
being used are listed in the Version Matrix section of the SC CDMA
Release Notes (supplied on the tape or CD-ROM containing the BSS
software).
Procedures to load ROM code are located in Appendix J.
RAM Code
Before RAM code can be downloaded from the LMF, the correct RAM
code file for each device must exist on the LMF computer. RAM code
can be automatically or manually selected depending on the Device
menu item chosen and where the RAM code file for the device is stored
in the LMF file structure. The RAM code file will be selected
automatically if the file is in the <x>:\<lmf home
directory>\cdma\loads\n.n.n.n\code folder (where n.n.n.n is the
download code version number that matches the “NextLoad” parameter
of the CDF file). The RAM code file in the code folder must have the
correct hardware bin number for the device to be loaded.
RAM code can be downloaded to a device that is in any state. After the
download is started, the device being loaded will change to OOS_ROM
(blue). When the download is completed successfully, the device will
change to OOS_RAM (yellow).
When code is downloaded to an MGLI or GLI, the LMF automatically
also downloads data and then enables the MGLI. When enabled, the
MGLI will change to INS_ACT (bright green). A redundant GLI will
not be automatically enabled and will remain OOS_RAM (yellow).
When the redundant GLI is manually commanded to enable through the
LMF, it will change state to INS_SBY (olive green).
For non-GLI devices, data must be downloaded after RAM code is
downloaded. To download data, the device state must be OOS_RAM
(yellow).
The devices to be loaded with RAM code and data are:
 Master Group Line Interface (MGLI)
 Redundant GLI
 Clock Synchronization Module (CSM) (Only if new revision code
must be loaded)
 Multi Channel CDMA (MCC24E, MCC8E, or MCC-1X) cards
 Broadband Transceiver (BBX2 or BBX-1X) cards
 RFDS Test Subscriber Interface Card (TSIC) or RFDS-1X RFDS
PROCessor (RPROC) card, if RFDS is installed
