After unpacking the delivery, some of the units can be removed from the BTS to
make it easier to handle. Usually, removing only the TRXs makes the Nokia
MetroSite EDGE Base Station light enough to handle.
The Nokia MetroSite EDGE Base Station is then installed on a wall or a pole. In
wall mountings, the packing cardboard can be used as a template for drilling the
anchor screw holes to the wall. In pole mountings, an additional pole mounting
kit is used to attach the BTS to the installation pole.
After the removed plug-in units are reinstalled, the cabinet ground and power
cables are connected. The next step is to connect the diversity cables,
transmission cables and antenna cables. Then the BTS is powered up and
commissioning is started. Finally, the lock and the cover are installed to the BTS.
3.4.2 Commissioning with the Nokia MetroSite BTS Manager
Nokia MetroSite BTS Manager is a PC-based tool which includes a
commissioning wizard that guides the user throughout the whole commissioning
process.
Autodetection
The BTS software includes an autodetection feature which identifies the BTS
hardware. This reduces the time spent for commissioning as the user does not
have to create a separate HW database for the BTS. The system data is replicated
to each TRX so that none of the BTS parameters are lost when the units are
replaced.
No external measuring devices are needed for BTS commissioning tests.
The task-oriented instructions for each step can be found in Nokia MetroSite
EDGE Base Station: Commissioning document.
