Introduction to Optimization and Calibration – continued
FEB 2005 1X SC 4812T Lite BTS Optimization/ATP 3-5
PRELIMINARY
– BTSs configured for Circuit Backhaul use bts.CDF Files.
– BTSs configured for Packet Backhaul use bts.necf Files
(bts–xxx.xml) located on the OMC–R.
Before using the LMF for Optimization/ATP, the correct
bts–#.cdf and cbsc–#.cdf or bts–#.necf and cbsc–#.necf
files for the BTS must be obtained from the CBSC and
put in a bts–# folder in the LMF.
Failure to use the correct CDF/NECF Files can cause
wrong results.
Failure to use the correct CDF/NECF Files to log into
a live (traffic carrying) site can shut down the site.
IMPORTANT
*
The CDF/NECF is normally obtained from the CBSC on a
DOS–formatted diskette, or through a File Transfer Protocol (FTP) if the
LMF Computer has FTP Capability. Refer to the LMF On–line Help
Documentation Function for the procedure.
Site Equipage Verification
If you have not already done so, use a Text Editor to view the
CDF/NECF, and review the Site Documentation. Verify that the Site
Engineering Equipage Data in the CDF/NECF matches the actual site
hardware using a CDF/NECF Conversion Table.
– Use extreme care not to make any changes to the
CDF/NECF File content while viewing the file.
Changes to the CDF/NECF File can cause the site to
operate unreliably or render it incapable of operation.
– Always wear a Conductive, High Impedance Wrist
Strap while handling any circuit card/module to
prevent damage by Electrostatic Discharge (ESD).
– Extreme care should be taken during the removal and
installation of any card/module. After removal, the
card/module should be placed on a conductive surface
or back into the anti–static bag in which it was
shipped.
