Automated Acceptance Test Procedure
FEB 2005 1X SC 4812T Lite BTS Optimization/ATP 4-1
PRELIMINARY
Introduction
The Acceptance Test Procedures (ATP) allow Cellular Field Engineers
(CFEs) to run automated Acceptance Tests on all BTS Subsystem
Devices equipped in the CDF using the LMF and the Test Equipment it
supports.
The CFE can choose to save the results of ATP Tests to a report file from
which ATP Reports are generated for later printing. See the Generating
an ATP Report section in this chapter.
Because Test Equipment Functions during Acceptance Testing are
controlled by the LMF through the GPIB, only the Test Equipment
Models supported by the LMF can be used.
Before using the LMF, read the Release Notes
“Caveats” section in the WinLMF On-Line Help
SR2.16.x for any applicable information.
The ATP Test is to be performed on out-of-service
sectors only.
DO NOT substitute Test Equipment with other
models not supported by the LMF.
NOTE
Refer to Chapter 3 for detailed interconnection information needed for
calibrating equipment, cables, and other Test Equipment Set
components.
Reduced ATP
Equipment has been factory–tested for FCC Compliance.
If license–governing bodies require documentation
supporting BTS Site Compliance with regulations, a full
ATP may be necessary.
Perform the Reduced ATP only if reports for the specific
BTS Site are NOT required.
NOTE
After downloading the proper operational software to the BTS, the CFE
must perform these procedures (minimum recommendation):
1. Verify that the TX/RX Paths by performing TX Calibration, TX
Audit, and FER Tests.
2. Retrieve Calibration Data required for normal site operation.
Should failures occur while performing the specified tests, refer to the
Basic Troubleshooting section of this manual for help in determining the
failure point. Once the point of failure has been identified and corrected,
refer to the BTS Optimization and ATP Test Matrix (Table C-1) to
determine the applicable test that must be performed.
