Tsunami Multipoint Version 1.3 Installation Guide 
Monitor the Es/No ratio (Es/No reports the energy per symbol-to-noise spectral density ratio (in dB)). 
Low Es/N0 or varying Es/N0 can indicate path or interference problems. The Es/No requirement varies 
based on the modulation mode: 
20 Mbps: Es/No > 4 + IPC value 
30 Mbps: Es/No > 5 + IPC value 
40 Mbps: Es/No > 9 + IPC value 
60 Mbps: Es/No > 12 + IPC value 
In addition, the BSU log provides the following information: 
Int 
Relative interference of the power received at the BSU (a value of 0 (zero) nominally shows no 
interference) 
GPS sync 
-1 indicates GPS sync is disabled; 4 indicates GPS sync is enabled. GPS synchronization is used when 
the system is in Multi Sector mode (multiple BSUs installed in the same location; see “Configuring the 
System for Multi-Sector Mode” on page 29 for more information). 
SU ID 
The Terminal ID of the monitored SU 
Time error 
Shows the uplink (or inbound) ranging error 
Rx cell error 
Shows the number of lost uplink cells 
Rx cells 
Shows the total number of uplink cells 
Time 
Shows the cumulative polling time (in seconds) 
Displaying the SU Logs 
You can display two different types of SU logs: SUlog1 and SUlog2. To display the SU logs, install the 
Base Station Configuration Software on the PC used to configure the SU (see “Installing the Base Station 
Configuration Software” for information) and then execute the commands described below. 
Follow these steps to enable an SU log: 
1. Enter SUlog1 <time> or SUlog2 <time> where <time> specifies the polling period (in seconds). 
(Specify SUlog1 to display SUlog1; specify SUlog2 to display SUlog2. See the information below for 
details about these two logs.)
