3DH03220 MDR-8000 Series RadiosIssue 6, July 2002 DS3 Initial Turnup6-3 6 DS3 INITIAL TURNUP 6.1 GENERAL This section describes the procedures required to turn up the DS3 MDR-8000/i Microwave Digital Radios after installation. 6.2 SEQUENCE OF EVENTS Perform the following initial turnup procedures in sequence: 1 Install software on PC (Chart 1). Software installed at the factory before delivery should not beoverwritten by downloading to the radio controller at initial tur-nup. Refer to Section 10, Maintenance for procedure to upgradeexisting software. 2 Establish communication between radio and USI computer (Chart 2). 3 Provision radio (Chart 3). Before troubleshooting a radio that is not performing correctly,check that the antenna has been aligned by contacting the programmanager, project engineer, or appropriate customer representative. 4 Perform applicable test procedures (Chart 4 through Chart 10). 5 Log test results on field test data sheet. 6.3 PROVISIONING OVERVIEW This part of the section describes provisioning options available with the MDR-8000 software application. Provisioning allows for the definition, editing, and storing of specific functions. The MDR-8000 provides the ability to provision equipment and facilities through a series of Windows™-based screens and messages. The Provision-ing menu lists equipment and functions which may be provisioned. Use only those provisioning screens that are applicable to your radio. Refer to on-line help for con-text-sensitive description of the screens and step-by-step procedures to accomplish other Provisioning tasks.NoteNote

3DH03220 Chart 1 Issue 6, July 2002 DS3 Initial TurnupLoad MDR-8000 Software on PC 6-5 Chart 1Load MDR-8000 Software on PC PURPOSE Provides procedures to load the Windows user interface (WINUSI) software supplied on CD ROM into the user’s PC. Radio controller software is loaded at the factory and therefore the procedure to load initial software onto the controller is not included in this section. The procedure for upgrading software is provided in the Section 10, Maintenance. PREREQUISITES Windows 95, 98, 2000, or NT software loaded onto PC EQUIPMENT REQUIRED PC – 100 Mhz @ 32 RAM minimum, Pentium or equivalentMDR-8000 DS3 Software Kit, PN 695-9406-022 GENERAL Before operating the user system interface (USI) for the first time, the programs contained on the CD ROM must be installed on the PC. The installation process configures the PC for its unique requirements and prepares it to run the program. For additional information to set up and operate the PC, refer to Section 9, User’s Guide. STEP PROCEDURE1 Insert CD ROM disk into PC. 2 On Windows desktop, double click on My Computer icon. My Computer window displays. 3 In My Computer window, click on CD ROM icon. Files window displays. 4 See Figure 6-1. Follow directions and load setup.exe file (containing both USI and download software) on PC. 5 STOP. This procedure is complete. Proceed to Chart 2.

PREREQUISITES Software loaded into USI computer (Chart 1) TEST EQUIPMENT REQUIRED PC – 100 Mhz @ 32 RAM minimum, Pentium or equivalentRS-232 Interface Cable Alcatel PN 695-7848 STEP PROCEDURE Disable infrared option on laptop (if equipped) to prevent dis-rupting communication on com port. 1 Connect RS-232 interface cable between USI connector on controller and PC. See Figure 6-2. 2 On Windows desktop, click on Start icon. Program menu displays. Only one COM port can be used at a time. 3 On Program menu, click on Win USI program. Win USI screen displays with message COMMUNICATING to indicate PC is communicating with the radio controller. If COMMUNICATION DOWN message is displayed, perform procedure shown on Figure 6-3 to change COM port. 4 STOP. This procedure is complete. Do not close Win USI screen. Proceed to Chart 3.NoteNote

3DH03220 Chart 3 Issue 6, July 2002 DS3 Initial TurnupProvisioning 6-11 Chart 3Provisioning PURPOSE Provides procedures to provision the radio. Check factory provisioning against actual system requirements. If the provisioning checks find differences in provisioned parameters, change the provisionable parameter(s) as required. PREREQUISITES Software loaded into radio (Chart 1).Communication established between PC and radio controller (Chart 2). TEST EQUIPMENT REQUIRED PCRS-232 Interface Cable Alcatel PN 695-7848 GENERAL This turn-up procedure serves as a guide to configure and provision the radio system using the PC.At initial turn-up, the MDR-8000 radios at each site must be provisioned on site using local provisioning menus on the USI computer. Radio configuration, mode of operation, and equipment configuration provisioning can only be performed locally. After the remote addresses have been set locally, if ELMC option key on controller has remote provisioning capability, the user can change transmit switching, and receive switching functions and change DS3 and fault alarm provisioning. STEP PROCEDURE Changes to provisioning do not have to be made in any particu-lar order. 1 Display Local Provisioning screen (Double click tower icon on Win USI screen). 2 Check factory provisioning and reprovision parameters as necessary for DS3 radio. See Figure 6-4 for sequence. 3 Click on Prov. Save on tool bar to store new provisioning information on controller. 4 STOP. This procedure is complete. Proceed to Chart 4.Note

3DH03220 MDR-8000 Series RadiosIssue 6, July 2002 DS3 Initial Turnup6-25 6.4 TEST PROCEDURES Ensure that all antennas are properly aligned and waveguide isin good physical condition before attempting radio turn-up. This section describes the procedures required to turn up the DS3 MDR-8000/i Microwave Digital Radios after installation.These procedures are for equipment that is properly aligned and tested at the factory before shipment. The only adjustments included are those that are normally made during installation. If any of the required measurements are not within the specified tolerance, take corrective action in accordance with Section 10, Maintenance. 6.5 TESTING SEQUENCE See Figure 6-15 for flowchart showing testing sequence. Follow the path for your radio and perform tests in the that order.Note

Similar test equipment can be substituted for that recommended, but before substitution, check the parameters for minimum requirements. If the characteristics of the test equipment being considered are not within required parameters and result in a change of any procedure, note the details of the procedure change. Become familiar with the operation of any test equipment before using it. Operating instructions for test equipment are not included in this instruction book, except for precautionary notes or special instrument settings required in performing a test procedure. When further information regarding test equipment is required, refer to the equipment manufacturer’s instructional data.
