User Manual—Mobile Advantage Wireless Office (DWOS 1.0)8(80) 198 17-HRC104 201 PA9 2 System Description2.1 OverviewMobile Advantage functions as an extension of wired communication systems with additional mobile capabilities. Wireless systems provide the same services as most commonly used Private Branch Exchange (PBX), with the advantage of portable telephone capabilities. Mobile Advantage extends normal mobile systems functions to operate inside buildings, factories, and other internal sites. Mobile Advantage mobile phones operate in either the 850 MHz (Cellular) or 1900 MHz Personal Communications Service (PCS) bands. To function in the Mobile Advantage environment, mobile phones must be compatible with the TDMA-136 standard protocol and have Adaptive Code Excited Linear Prediction (ACELP) speech capability. ACELP is a speech coding and decoding standard for mobile phones. For more information about the TDMA-136 standard see “Appendix B—Acronyms and Abbreviations”, on page 72. Mobile Advantage users within the Mobile Advantage area use a private numbering plan for calls to other Mobile Advantage users. Mobile Advantage users communicate with public telephones through a PBX link connected to the Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN). Mobile Advantage is associated with the Public Land Mobile Network (PLMN) where the users are defined as standard cellular or PCS subscribers in a Home Location Register (HLR). The subscription of users with the PLMN allows Mobile Advantage users to roam outside the Mobile Advantage area as normal cellular phones. The PLMN and the Mobile Advantage authenticate mobile phone users by accessing an HLR connected to the Common Channel Signaling System Number 7 (SS7) Network. To access the HLR, Mobile Advantage is connected to the SS7 Network through a WOS (Wireless Office System) SS7 Gateway link. The associated PLMN notifies Mobile Advantage when a user is roaming in the network. Mobiles entering or initializing in the system area notify Mobile Advantage with a Private System Identification (PSID). Only mobile phones defined to the Mobile Advantage system can function fully within a Mobile Advantage environment.Mobile Advantage can be configured to accept and transfer emergency calls, such as E911 calls, from any mobile phone operating within the Mobile Advantage coverage area. The mobile phone making the emergency call must be compatible with TDMA-136 standard protocol and have ACELP speech capability. Mobile Advantage Operations, Administration, and Maintenance (O&M) functions are performed through World Wide Web (WWW) or host connections. The O&M Client application allows Mobile Advantage System Administrators to receive operational information and administer the system remotely.The major physical components of the Mobile Advantage system are as

User Manual—Mobile Advantage Wireless Office (DWOS 1.0) 198 17-HRC104 201 PA9 19 (80)3 Site PlanningSite planning evaluates the capacity needs of the Mobile Advantage system and optimum placement of the components. The Mobile Advantage coverage area is considered to be one cell. In the planning phase the customer must complete a Site Planning Checklist provided by Ericsson. Alternately, the customer can order a Site Survey to be performed by Ericsson trained personnel to fulfill the following site planning requirements:•Determine the amount, location, and power requirements of the Mobility Server, the CRE cabinets, Radio Heads, and Scanners.•Define the external links and protocols required for Mobile Advantage to communicate with the Private Telephone Network (PTN), the Internet, and the Public Land Mobile Network (PLMN). •Specify all cabling requirements within and external to the Mobile Advantage system. List what components are supplied with the Mobile Advantage system and what components are to be purchased locally.•List any environmental requirements, distance limitations, and capacity determinations. 3.1 Site Capacity and ReliabilityThe maximum physical coverage area and simultaneous call capacity requirements determine unit configuration. A fully configured system can process a maximum of 60 simultaneous calls. Mobile Advantage can process 45 Erlang traffic at a Grade of Service (GOS) of 0.5 percent. A GOS refers to the percentage of calls that could be blocked during maximum traffic times. For example, at a GOS of 0.5 percent, Mobile Advantage can process calls for up to 448 users if traffic for each user is approximately 100 mErlang.When estimating the maximum capacity in call processing of a Mobile Advantage site, allowances should be made for redundant capacity. For example, the call processing capabilities of SPU boards are added together in the CRE to provide a pool of processing resources. When determining the number of required SPU boards, allowing for extra capacity will, in the event of an SPU board failure, maintain the GOS.Estimated internal and external traffic requirements will determine the required number of physical links from the CRE to PBXs or other units.3.2 Mobility Server PlanningThe Mobility Server component in Mobile Advantage is specified by Ericsson to support all possible configurations of the system. Site planning for the Mobility Server consists of estimating the power requirements and connections to Mobile Advantage components and external links. All TCP/IP connections information, including IP addresses of the connecting ports, must
User Manual—Mobile Advantage Wireless Office (DWOS 1.0)20 (80) 198 17-HRC104 201 PA9 be entered in the Site Planning Checklist for use in the Mobile Advantage installation and initialization phases. The Mobility Server is powered by redundant -48 Vdc power supplies. The type and location of all power requirements must be predetermined during the site planning.3.2.1 Mobility Server ConnectionsThe following connection information is entered into the Site Planning Checklist during the Mobile Advantage site planning phase: •To enable remote WWW O&M access to Mobile Advantage, a TCP/IP connection to the Internet on a local LAN, dedicated router, or communications server must be supplied. •To access the HLR in the SS7 network, a connection must be supplied from the Mobility Server to a WOS SS7 Gateway Server. The protocol is ANSI-41 Rev D; the bearer is TCP/IP on Ethernet. •Two Ethernet connections are required from the Mobility Server to the CRE main cabinet. Two reverse CAT 5 cables with RJ-45 connectors are supplied with the system. The Ethernet connections are from the Mobility Server to:-the RLU board inserted in slot three of the CRE main cabinet, and-the SWB inserted in slot 10 and extending over slot 11 of the main cabinet. The SWB board requires two slots spaces. 3.3 Cellular Radio Exchange (CRE) PlanningThe CRE for Mobile Advantage is configured in one or two cabinets. The CRE auxiliary cabinet must be installed to the right of the CRE main cabinet. The quantity of cabinets required must be determined in the site planning phase.Note: When installing single-cabinet systems allocate space to the right of the main cabinet for an expansion cabinet. In Mobile Advantage a main and one auxiliary cabinet can support the maximum quantity of system boards (SPU and RLU). Site planning determines the optimum quantity of each board. Adding extra SPUs, RLUs, or RHs to Mobile Advantage can provide redundancy in coverage and processing capabilities in event of failure. The maximum number of Mobile Advantage CRE boards are as follows:•Eight SPU boards—The first SPU board can process seven simultaneous calls. Each additional board can process eight calls except the eighth which can process five calls (7+8+8+8+8+8+8+5 = 60). Eight SPU boards provide a processing pool capable of handling a total of 60 simultaneous calls.•Four RLU boards—Each RLU board can support a maximum of eight RHs. Each RH can process a maximum of 14 simultaneous calls.
User Manual—Mobile Advantage Wireless Office (DWOS 1.0) 198 17-HRC104 201 PA9 21 (80)Note: The amount of RLU boards configured will determine the amount of punch blocks required. Each RLU board is cabled to one punch block. Placement of the punch blocks is also determined during site planning.3.3.1 CRE connectionsThe amount, type, and location of the CRE connections are determined in the site planning phase. The following information is considered when completing the Site Planning Checklist: •Mobile Advantage supports a maximum of six external T1 or E1 trunk links between the SWB and PBXs.Note: E1 or T1 cables, 15 meters (50 feet) in length, are supplied with the system for connections to equipment located in the same room as the CRE. The connectors of the cables supplied by Ericsson meet specific shielding requirements to comply with radiated emissions regulations. If the location of PBXs require extensions, they must be connected to the cables supplied by Ericsson, to meet requirements. •Two standard RLU telephony cables are supplied for use between each configured RLU board and the punch blocks. Each punch block is connected to a maximum of eight RHs or Scanners with standard CAT 5 cables.Note: When connecting the cables to RLU boards consider whether redundant RH coverage is necessary. When locating an RH near another RH, to provide for redundant coverage in an area, do not connect to the same RLU board. The failure of a single RLU would not cause loss of coverage if redundant RHs are connected to different boards.•-48 Vdc power cables are supplied for each cabinet.•A PE ground cable is supplied for each cabinet.•Two Ethernet connections are required from the Mobility Server to the CRE main cabinet. Reverse CAT 5 cables with RJ-45 connectors are supplied with the system. The CAT 5 cables are connected from the Mobility Server to the following: -The RLU board located in slot three of the CRE main cabinet.-The SWB in the CRE main cabinet. The SWB is inserted in slot 10 and extends over slot 11 of the main cabinet.3.4 RH PlanningThe number of required Radio Heads is determined by analyzing physical site requirements and user location estimates. Estimating the location and number of RHs is determined using site floor plans. A method of determining the level of external radio interference is used. The level of radio interference measured
User Manual—Mobile Advantage Wireless Office (DWOS 1.0)22 (80) 198 17-HRC104 201 PA9 during site planning will effect the planned number of RHs, the RH transmitted power, and maximum mobile phone power. Higher external radio interference levels require more RHs. The number of RHs must be sufficient to perform the following:•Provide the necessary carrier to noise levels ratio •Allow low enough transmitted power level to minimize interference to external systems•Provide call completion without blocking for the estimated number of users in all areas. An RH can be mounted near another RH in areas where large concentrations of users are predicted or redundant coverage is needed.3.4.1 Estimating Radio CoverageThe customer’s desired radio coverage area must be understood before a system quotation can be provided. Radio coverage is provided by the strategic placement of Radio Heads and Scanners. The Mobile Advantage system can support up to 32 Radio Devices: RHs and Scanners. Coverage can be estimated using the following three methods, shown in order of increasing reliability.1. Square footage estimateThe configuration provides an estimate of how many square feet a given number of Radio Heads will cover. Although it is possible to provide budgetary quotations from square footage alone, this is not recommended. 2. Floor plansIf provided with floor plans, Sales Engineering can formulate a more accurate estimate of how many Radio Heads and Scanners are required to cover a given facility. Quotations based solely upon floor plans must include a provision stating to the customer that the actual number of Radio heads required may vary (higher or lower). Ericsson will not guarantee coverage based solely upon floor plans. If a firm quotation is required, a Site Survey must be ordered from the Ericsson Service Group. 3. Site SurveyA Site Survey is the most accurate way to assess needed radio coverage. Using the TEMS™ radio Site Survey tool, an Ericsson-trained technician will walk through a customer’s facility taking measurements to ensure the optimal placement of Radio Heads. A Site Survey will usually be employed in the later stages of the sales process but prior to making any contractual agreements.3.4.2 RH ConnectionsRHs are connected by solid wire CAT 5 cables to designated pins on the punch blocks. For more information about RH cabling see “Appendix A—Cabling and Connectors”, on page 58.

If RHs or Scanners cable distances are longer (up to1600 meters or 5280 feet) they receive power from a 24 Vdc converter. A 115 Vac outlet must be located nearby to supply power to the converters, if used to power RHs or Scanners.4.3 RH and Scanner Cable InstallationBefore beginning the procedures in this section, print a copy of Chapter 11, “Appendix A—Cabling and Connectors,” on page 58, to use with all installation procedures. Installing the cables and punch block wiring for the RHs and Scanners can be done before receiving the main Mobile Advantage units. The physical requirements of the Mobile Advantage area and the planned location of the RHs or Scanners from the site planning phase determine the best cable routing. Note: Cables that are routed through ceilings or plenums must be rated for fire safety. The applicable cable plenum specifications are defined in NEC CMP and CSA PCC FT4/FT6. 4.3.1 Installing Cables From The CRE to RHs or ScannersPerform the following steps to correctly install the RLU cables from the RLU boards to the punch blocks and CAT5 cables from the punch blocks:1. Determine the number and location of the RHs, Scanners, punch blocks, and CRE cabinets from the site planning documents. 2. Install the required amount of punch blocks in the correct location. Punch blocks are usually installed on wall-mounted panels or racks. 3. Attach labels to the punch blocks to identify which functional RLU board (for example, RLU1 to RLU4) will be connected to the punch block. Note: When cabling from the RLU boards to punch blocks, do not connect to the RLU board in slot three of the main cabinet. The RLU board in slot three functions as a central processor and is not connected to RHs or Scanners. 4. If the RLU to punch block cables supplied with the system are available, label and connect them to the designated punch blocks. Note: The cable from the top telephony connector (DB-37) on each RLU board routes to the telephony connector on the top left side of the designated punch block.

User Manual—Mobile Advantage Wireless Office (DWOS 1.0) 198 17-HRC104 201 PA9 39 (80)7 Numbering PlansMobile Advantage provides one-number access to all users whether they are in the system area or roaming in the PLMN. The 10-digit Direct In Dialing (DID) number can access a Mobile Advantage user whether in the system area or roaming in the PLMN. While in the system area, calling users can connect to other users with a four or five-digit DWOS User Number (DUN), a subset of the DID number. When Mobile Advantage mobile phone users in the system area call external numbers the Calling Line Identification Presentation (CLIP) to the called party is the DID number, unless an alternative number is defined. Administration and billing for Mobile Advantage users is simplified by the one-number access capabilities. The Mobile Advantage and associated PLMN determine system costs; the user is not billed for calls originated from or destined to Mobile Advantage numbers. Although a Mobile Directory Number (MDN) is assigned by the PLMN to all Mobile Advantage phones, it is not recommended for typical usage. Calls originated or destined for MDN numbers are billed directly to the user.The Mobile Advantage numbering plan uses the following:•PBX Extensions—The PBX extension number defines a physical extension of a Mobile Advantage mobile phone. A PBX Extension number can only be used by subscribers connected to the PBX or Mobile Advantage users while in the system coverage area. •DWOS User Numbers (DUN)—The DWOS User Number defines only Mobile Advantage mobile phones. A DUN is used by subscribers connected to the PBX or within the Mobile Advantage coverage area to call other Mobile Advantage users.•PBX Prefix—The PBX Prefix is the office code of the PBX in the PSTN. The PBX prefix is added to the DUN to make a seven-digit directory number.•Numbering Plan Area Code (NPA)—The NPA identifies the calling code of an area of the country. To make a national call, the NPA Code is added to the seven-digit directory number. •Direct In Dialing (DID)—The DID number is composed of the NPA+PBX Prefix+DUN numbers (for example 919 555 1212). The DID is presented as the CLIP when a Mobile Advantage user calls out of the system area. •Country Code (CC)—The CC identifies the calling code of a country. To make an international call, the CC is added to the ten digit DID.•External Line Prefix—Some PBX systems require dialing a number to access the external networks. For example, dialing a 9 to get an outside line.

The following examples describe Mobile Advantage number usage:•A Mobile Advantage user in the system area calls another Mobile Advantage user’s four or five-digit DWOS User Number (DUN). Mobile Advantage then does one of the following:-If the called user is also in the system area, Mobile Advantage locates the called mobile phone, completes the call connection, and presents a CLIP consisting of the caller’s DUN to the called party.-If the called user is not in the system area, Mobile Advantage interrogates the PLMN for the roaming routing number and Temporary Local Directory Number (TLDN) to the called mobile phone. The TLDN is temporarily allocated by a Mobile Services Switching Center (MSC) for call setup and is used to route the call through the PSTN or PLMN networks. Mobile Advantage locates the called mobile phone, completes the call, and presents a CLIP consisting of the caller’s Direct In Dialing (DID) number to the called party. •A Mobile Advantage user not in the system area calls another Mobile Advantage user’s DID number. The call is routed through the PLMN and PSTN to Mobile Advantage. Mobile Advantage then does one of the following:-If the called user is in the system area, Mobile Advantage locates the called mobile phone, completes the call connection, and presents a CLIP consisting of the caller’s DUN to the called party.-If the called user is roaming in the PLMN, Mobile Advantage interrogates the PLMN for the roaming routing number and TLDN to the called mobile phone. Mobile Advantage locates the called mobile phone, completes the call, and presents a CLIP consisting of the caller’s DID to the called party. •When a non-Mobile Advantage phone calls a Mobile Advantage user’s DID number, the system does one of the following:-If the called user is in the system area, Mobile Advantage locates the mobile phone, completes the call connection, and presents a CLIP consisting of the caller’s DID number to the called party. -If the called user is roaming in the PLMN, Mobile Advantage interrogates the PLMN for the roaming routing number and TLDN to the called Mobile Advantage User. Mobile Advantage locates the called mobile phone, completes the call, and presents a CLIP consisting of the caller’s DID to the called party. •When a Mobile Advantage user in the system area calls an external number the call is connected through the PBX to the PSTN. After call setup, Mobile Advantage sends a CLIP consisting of the caller’s DID to the called party.
User Manual—Mobile Advantage Wireless Office (DWOS 1.0) 198 17-HRC104 201 PA9 41 (80)•When Mobile Advantage mobile phone users are not in the system area, calls to external numbers are routed through the PLMN and billed as normal cellular calls to the user.The following numbers codes and definitions are used in the examples shown in table 1:•PBX Prefix: 472•External Line Prefix: 9•Numbering Plan Area Code: 919•Long Distance Code: 1•User one: a Mobile Advantage mobile phone user with DUN 6600•User two: a Mobile Advantage mobile phone user with DUN 6601•User three: a fixed external user with PSTN number 919 456 3434Note: The PBX to which Mobile Advantage connects must have a Private Number Plan which includes the DWOS User Numbers.

In this section, explanations are given for the O&M Client service areas in the order they appear on screen. Examples of datafill for O&M forms are shown. The O&M functions are divided into the following service areas:8.4.1 CustomerThe Mobile Advantage system can provide service to more than one customer. In the Customer service area the following parameters are defined for each customer:•Customer Name is a unique name of no more than 50 characters. For example, General_Hospital.•Customer Number series contains sets of four or five-digit DWOS User Numbers (DUN), assigned to this customer. For example, to define the customer number series consisting of the numbers 845 1808 and 845
User Manual—Mobile Advantage Wireless Office (DWOS 1.0)46 (80) 198 17-HRC104 201 PA9 1809 as a four-digit DUN, the datafill in the field “From” is 1808 and field “To” is 1809. To define a five-digit DUN the datafill in field “From” is 51808 and “To” is 51809. To add other number series use the Modify submenu.•Public Prefix field is the two or three-digit code prefacing the DUN series, to allow access to Mobile Advantage users from external networks. For example, a three-digit prefix (845) is added to the four-digit DUNs (1808 and 1809). •Common Answering Position number is either a DUN, within the customer series, or a DID, to direct unanswered calls to.•Personal Assistant (PA) is a DUN where the Mobile Advantage user can access the personal number settings. Mobile Advantage responds to all calls made to the PA with audio prompts explaining how to control features from a Dual-Tone Multifrequency (DTMF) phone.•Default Voice Mail address is a DUN used to access the Mobile Advantage user’s voice mail services. •The Initial Voice is picked from a list of options defining Mobile Advantage user greetings.•Trunk Call Discrimination (TCD) is used to prevent users from originating calls to certain outgoing numbers.•Traffic Matrix System (TMC) is similar to TCD, but applies only within the Mobile Advantage area.8.4.2 End UserMobile Advantage allows creation of profiles for a single user or a group of users in one operation. If a group of users are defined in one operation all users will have the same name and profile. Default profiles that were defined in the Customer Service area for users can be modified for each Mobile Advantage user. To alter profiles, including changing the user names or numbers use the Modify submenu. In the End User service area a user’s access to Mobile Advantage can be locked or unlocked and a password set or changed. Mobile Advantage users can be created, modified, or deleted. When creating Mobile Advantage users, the following parameters are defined:•End user number can be a single DUN (for defining one user), or a range of DUNs, that fall within the set of numbers previously defined for the customer’s use. •End user name associates a Mobile Advantage user name to a DUN. If a range of DUNs were defined in End user number, all users in the group will have the same name until modified. Creating a group of Mobile Advantage users, then modifying names, results in a group of users with multiple numbers to have the same or similar profiles. •Trunk Call Discrimination (TCD) is defined for a Mobile Advantage user only if different than the default TCD set in the Customer service area.
User Manual—Mobile Advantage Wireless Office (DWOS 1.0) 198 17-HRC104 201 PA9 47 (80)•Traffic Matrix Coordinates (TMC) is defined for a Mobile Advantage user only if different than the default TMC set in the Customer service area. •ID presentation restriction, if set to YES, allows the identification of the DWOS User Number to be presented to the called party. The number presented may be a DID or DUN determined by the Mobile Advantage user’s physical location at the time of the call.•Voice mail address is defined for a Mobile Advantage user only if different than the default Voice mail address set in the Customer service area. The voice mail address is the extension number to access the voice mail service.•Voice Mail subaddress contains the DID of the voice mail service. •Features provides a list of Mobile Advantage user features or combinations of features for the Mobile Advantage user to select from.8.4.3 Personal Number servicesPersonal Number services allow Mobile Advantage users to control how incoming calls are handled. The Mobile Advantage user can define multiple profiles that determine the sequence of numbers to forward incoming calls, screening of numbers, and call control. An excellent description of personal number services is included in the Mobile Advantage on-line document “Personal Number User Web Guide”. This guide is accessed from the Personal Number main screen.8.4.4 Route HandlingThe service area “Route Handling” provides route and trunk definition from lists of available resources and numbering plans. Routes can consist of multiple trunks for traffic loading and redundancy. Before creating routes or trunks physical links need to be created in the service area “Hardware Resources”.8.4.5 Hardware Resources 8.4.6 Fault ManagementFault management is covered in the section on “Troubleshooting”, on page 50.

Mobile Advantage generates a call information report for each completed call if the specified output criteria is met. The reports are stored in a file which can be postprocessed outside Mobile Advantage. Examples of call logging scenarios are available on-line by selecting the link “Call Logging Condition Code Guide” at the Call Logging main screen.8.4.10 PerformanceAt the “Performance” service area, the available functions consists of measurements, event recording and statistical evaluations. Traffic statistics can be collected from the Mobility Server and the Radio Infrastructure (RI).Mobility Server performance measurements can be made on extension numbers, routes, or call forwarding transfers. In the sub-menu selection “MobServer Measurements” the user can create, modify, browse, display, and delete performance reports.RI Measurements includes data collection, and data storage. The data collection part is implemented in the CRE. Although the performance data files are controlled by the CRE the actual files are stored in the Mobility Server and are accessed by the CRE.Configuration of Radio Network Recording parameters (for example thresholds) is done at the “Radio Network” selection and transferred to the CRE. A fault report is sent to the Mobility Server if a threshold is crossed. The fault will then be treated as an alarm in the Mobility Server. Creating, deleting, or modifying RI measurement reports is accomplished in the “Performance” service area selection, sub-menu “RI Measurements”. 8.4.11 Security8.4.12 Tools8.4.13 System Description8.4.14 Security ManagementMobile Advantage security defines the authority layers of access to the system

The Mobility Server can store and retrieve information on O&M user activities for analysis.8.4.14.1 Storing of Audit Trail Data In the service area under the “Security” selection the Security Log tracks User access sessions with Mobile Advantage. All logging that take place in Mobile Advantage is done on a first-in-first-out basis. That is, the logging is continuous and the oldest data is deleted when a file is full. The O&M User can define the size of the different log files.
User Manual—Mobile Advantage Wireless Office (DWOS 1.0)50 (80) 198 17-HRC104 201 PA9 9 Troubleshooting9.1 GeneralMobile Advantage system faults are reported to the Mobility Server. At the Mobile Advantage management interface screen the “Alarm Window” gives a visual indication of active alarms. Access the fault and event logs by clicking on the number displayed under the “Alarm Bell” indicator or by selecting the “Faults” service area.Writer’s Note: also see Overview student guide page 28.The Mobility Server treats hardware faults, exceptional software faults and crossing of performance thresholds as Alarm Reports. Software exceptions such as process restarts are treated as Event Reports. An alarm remains active until the fault has ceased, while an Event Report is information about something that has happened and can also be used for reporting software errors.9.1.1 Start and restartThe CRE will always load a Bootfile from the Mobility Server at start and restart. The CRE sends updated information to the Mobility Server about the hardware when a restart occurs because the hardware configuration may have changed (boards added or removed). The Mobility Server will clear all active alarms after a restart. Any faults that remain active after the restart will be reported as well as any new faults that are detected. 9.1.2 System BackupA consistent and periodic backup strategy can decrease system recovery time. To order a backup of configuration data to the Mobility Server hard drive select the “System” service area. The configuration data includes all configurable data in the Mobility Server and the CRE. All configuration data will automatically be restored after a restart of the system.9.2 Fault ManagementMobile Advantage automatically detects hardware and software faults on replaceable units, links and software modules. Fault reports are stored in the alarm log or event log in the service area “Faults”. After detection Mobile Advantage blocks the operation of faulty units or links. Replaceable hardware units are, for example, RHs and boards in the CRE cabinet. Links are, for example, the connections to the PBX.Mobile Advantage uses visual system alarms to indicate when a new Alarm Report or a new Event Report is generated. The system also indicates when an existing Alarm Report is updated after correction of the fault. If the user is not logged in to the Management System interface, the alarm or event data
User Manual—Mobile Advantage Wireless Office (DWOS 1.0) 198 17-HRC104 201 PA9 51 (80)will be stored in the log files. To retrieve information about faults or events, access the “Faults” service area which contains the logged alarm information. Active alarms are indicated in the Current Alarms section until cleared. After alarms are cleared the alarm histories are stored in the Alarm Log. Events are stored in the Event Log. The following functions are implemented in the Mobility Server regarding current alarms reports.•Browse Current Alarms•Modify (add information to) a current alarm report•Delete Current AlarmsAfter an alarm is cleared (automatically or manually) the following functions are available to review past alarms in the Alarm Log.•Browse the Alarm Log•Delete the Alarm LogThe following functions are implemented regarding the Event Log.•Browse the Event Log•Delete the Event LogThe following functions are implemented for all Registered Alarms.•Browse Registered Alarms•Modify Registered AlarmsMobile Advantage automatically blocks faulty units and links. Links are automatically deblocked when the faults have disappeared. The O&M User can also manually block and deblock any units or links to localize faults. For example, to take a link temporarily out of operation.When a faulty CRE system component is replaced with a new unit and the component is placed into operation, the corresponding Alarm Report is updated automatically.When severe software faults are detected, Mobile Advantage is automatically restarted. The restart can be on different levels, such as:•Board •Radio head or Scanner•Cellular Radio Exchange (CRE)•Mobility Server Note: In the most severe case the complete Mobile Advantage is automatically reloaded with the system data backup. 9.3 Other fault indicatorsThe Mobile Advantage automatic fault handling operations detect and assist in resolving most faults. Some failures cannot be automatically detected by
User Manual—Mobile Advantage Wireless Office (DWOS 1.0)52 (80) 198 17-HRC104 201 PA9 the system. To assist in troubleshooting some failures, the CRE boards, RHs, and Scanners have Light Emitting Diodes (LED). The LEDs, located on the front of the boards or units for easy observation, provide indications of unit status. All CRE boards have at least one power LED located at the top of the board. The power LEDs display green when DC power is supplied to the board.The following tables describe specific LED indications of board and unit statuses.9.3.1 RH and Scanner LEDsVisual indicators of RH or Scanner status are shown in Table 2.9.3.2 CRE Boards Common LEDsVisual indicators common to all RLU, DTU, and SPU boards statuses are shown in Table 3.Note: The common LED indicators also apply to the RLU board in slot three of the main cabinet.

User Manual—Mobile Advantage Wireless Office (DWOS 1.0)54 (80) 198 17-HRC104 201 PA9 10 Software and Hardware UpgradesUpgrading Mobile Advantage to implement new functions, hardware, or units can require the loading of new software. Mobile Advantage guides the O&M user when loading software.Note: Always perform the replacement or upgrading of hardware and software during periods of light traffic. When upgrading there is always the possibility the newly installed hardware or software may not function properly with Mobile Advantage. Be prepared to uninstall an upgrade if necessary. 10.1 Hardware UpgradesThe installation of new hardware is typically plug and play (P&P). When new hardware is installed in the CRE, the hardware is automatically detected and activated. Installing most new CRE boards or replacing defective boards can be done while the CRE is powered (hot swapping). In the service area “Hardware Resources”, the user can create, browse, delete, block, and unblock boards, links, and trunks. The user can also install and modify software releases. Note: For the SWB only, deactivate (block) the device before physically removing it to prevent misleading traps from being generated. All cables should be attached to CRE boards after installing. For example, RLU boards should have the cables to the RHs connected after installation. Installing the boards with the cables connected could cause a large current surge to the RHs.When upgrading or replacing an RH, Scanner, and most units, Mobile Advantage loads new software automatically. The Mobility Server reads the new configuration data from the CRE and activates the new hardware. RHs and Scanners require a warm-up period before operating accurately.The following Mobile Advantage units cannot be replaced with the plug and play installation method:•Replacement of the Mobility Server requires reinstallation of Mobile Advantage software. Replacement of redundant units in the Mobility Server can be done in the P&P manner with “hot swapping”. Replacement of boards that are not redundant or capable of “hot swapping” requires shutting down and powering OFF the Mobility Server. •The SWB has a configurable IP interface which must be initialized. Replacing the SWB requires deleting the defective board and creating a new board. This requires entering the IP address, along with other data, of the SWB in the service area “Hardware Resources” selection “Board”.•The CRE Power Module (CPM) and SYNC boards are not “hot swappable”. Replacement of the CPM and SYNC boards in the CRE effects all boards. Turn OFF power to the CRE when replacing the CPM and SYNC boards.

RHs located less than 800 meters (2640 feet) from the CRE receive power from the RLU boards through the CAT 5 cables. For Scanners located up to 1200 meters (3960 feet) from the CRE, the RLU boards also supply the power through the CAT 5 cables. RHs and Scanners can be located up to a maximum of 1600 meters from the CRE if powered from a 24 Vdc converter. The 24 Vdc converters require 115 Vac outlets nearby.Note: If necessary, other types of twisted pair cable may be used. However, using lower quality cable will result in shorter distance capabilities. Use of any cable type except those recommended requires an evaluation of that link by Ericsson.Figure 10 is an overview of RLU cabling from a representative RLU board to RH or Scanners.
