Advantest R3465 Connection
The following diagram depicts the rear panels of the Advantest test
equipment as configured to perform automatic tests. All test equipment
is controlled by the LMF via an IEEE–488/GPIB bus. The LMF expects
each piece of test equipment to have a factory-set GPIB address (refer to
Table F-7). If there is a communications problem between the LMF and
any piece of test equipment, you should verify that the GPIB addresses
have been set correctly and that the GPIB cables are firmly connected to
the test equipment.

PRELIMINARY
Exception Procedure –
Downloading Device ROM
Code
This procedure is not part of a normal optimization.
Perform this procedure only on an exception basis when no alternative
exists to load a BTS device with the correct version of ROM code.
An MGLI or GLI must be INS (green) before ROM code
can be downloaded to non–GLI devices.
NOTE
Release 2.9.x RAM code must NOT be downloaded to a
device loaded with Release 2.8.x ROM code, and Release
2.8.x RAM code must NOT be downloaded to a device
loaded with Release 2.9.x ROM code.
All devices in a BTS must have the same Release–level
ROM and RAM code before the optimization and ATP
procedures can be performed.
If a newly–installed Release 8–equipped BTS is to be
upgraded to Release 2.9.x, the optimization and
Acceptance Test Procedures (ATP) should be accomplished
with the Release 2.8.x code and software. Following the
optimization, the site code and software should be
upgraded to Release 2.9.x by the CBSC. It is not necessary
to perform the optimization and ATPs again after the
upgrade.
If a replacement device with Release 2.8.x ROM code
must be used in a Release 2.9.x–equipped BTS, the device
ROM code can be changed using the CDMA LMF before
the performing the BTS optimization and ATPs. A device
loaded with Release 2.9.x ROM code can not be converted
back to Release 2.8.x ROM code in the field without
Motorola assistance.
CAUTION
If it is necessary to download ROM code to a device from the CDMA
LMF, the procedure in Table G-1 includes steps for both ROM and RAM
code download using the CDMA LMF.
Prerequisites
Prior to performing this procedure, ensure the correct ROM and RAM
code files exist on the CDMA LMF for each of the devices to be loaded.

G-2
The Release level of the ROM code to be downloaded
must be the same as the Release level of the ROM code
resident in the other devices in the BTS. Release 2.9.x
ROM code must not be downloaded to a frame having
Release 2.8.x code, and Release 2.8.x code must not be
downloaded to a frame having Release 2.9.x code.
This procedure should only be used to upgrade
replacement devices for a BTS. It should NOT be used to
upgrade all devices in a BTS. If a BTS is to be upgraded
from Release 2.8.x to Release 2.9.x, optimization and ATP
must first be performed with the BTS in a Release 2.8.x
configuration. Following this, the upgrade from Release
2.8.x to Release 2.9.x should be done by the CBSC.

1X SCt4812ET Lite BTS Optimization/ATP
PRELIMINARY
Purpose
This procedure is a guide to performing calibration of new BTS
expansion carriers while the system remains in service. This procedure
also supports BTS recalibration following replacement of RF chain
components while the remainder of the site stays in service.
Motorola recommends performing this procedure during a maintenance
window.
This procedure cannot be performed on BTSs with 2–to–1 combiners.
The procedure can only be performed on one side of the BTS at one
time. That is, LPAs 1A, 1B, 1C, and 1D can be calibrated while LPAs
3A, 3B, 3C, and 3D remain in service and vice versa.
Equipment Warm up
Calibration of the communications test set (or equivalent
test equipment) must be performed at the site before
calibrating the overall test equipment set. Calibrate the test
equipment after it has been allowed to warm-up and
stabilize for a minimum of 60 minutes.
IMPORTANT
*
If any component of the test equipment set (for example, a
test cable, RF adapter, signal generator) has been replaced,
the test equipment set must be recalibrated. Failure to do so
could introduce measurement errors which ultimately result
in degradation of system performance.
CAUTION
1X Test Equipment
Requirements
Calibration of 1X carrier functions requires using either of the following
test equipment combinations:
SAn Advantest R3267 spectrum analyzer with an Advantest R3562
signal generator
SAn Agilent E4406A Transmitter Test Set with an Agilent E4432A
signal generator
SAn Agilent 8935 series E6380A equipped with option 200 (if
purchased new) or option R2K (if retrofitted) and an Agilent E4432B
signal generator
These test equipment combinations are capable of calibrating the BTS
for both IS–95 A and B mode operation as well as IS–2000 CDMA 1X
operation.

Power Delta Calibration
Introduction
The ISC procedure has several differences from a normal calibration
procedure. One of these is the use of a spectrum
analyzer/communications test set instead of a power meter to measure
power. Power meters are broadband measurement devices and cannot be
used to measure power during ISC because other carriers are operating.
A spectrum analyzer can be used because it measures power at a given
frequency. Measuring power using a spectrum analyzer is less accurate
than using a power meter, therefore, compensation is required for the
accuracy difference (delta) between the power meter and the spectrum
analyzer.
Agilent E4406A Power Delta
Calibration
The Agilent E4406A transmitter tester and E4432B signal generator test
equipment combination can be used for ISC of IS–2000 CDMA 1X as
well as IS–95A/B operation modes. The power delta calibration is
performed on the E4406A, but the E4432B is required to generate the
reference signal used to calculate the power delta offset. After the offset
value has been calculated, add it to the TX cable loss value in the LMF.
Follow the procedure in Table H-1 to perform the Agilent E4406A
Power Delta Calibration procedure.
Table H-1: Agilent E4406A Power Delta Calibration Procedure
Step Action
* IMPORTANT

of 60 minutes. After it is warmed up and stabilized, calibrate the test equipment as described in the
“Test Set Calibration” section of Chapter 3.
1Zero the Power Meter prior to connecting the power sensor to the RF cable from the signal generator.
* IMPORTANT
For best accuracy, always re–zero the power meter before connecting the power sensor to the
component being calibrated.
2Connect a short RF cable from the E4432B RF OUTPUT connector the HP437 power meter power
sensor (see Figure H-1).

the Advantest measurement.
Delta = A – B
Example: Delta = –0.70 dBm – (–1.25 dBm) = 0.55 dBm
Example: Delta = 0.26 dBm – 0.55 dBm = –0.29 dBm
These examples are included to show the mathematics and do not represent actual readings.
NOTE
Add this delta value to the TX Cable Loss value during In–Service Calibration (see Step 4 in
Table H-6).

Upgrade
This feature does NOT have fault tolerance at this time.
The system has no safe–guards to prevent actions which
will put the BTS out of service. If possible, perform this
procedure during a maintenance window.
Follow the procedures in this section precisely, otherwise
the entire BTS will most likely go OUT OF SERVICE.
At the CBSC, only perform operations on expansion
hardware when it is in the OOS_MANUAL state.
The operator must be trained in the LMF operation prior to
performing this procedure.
IMPORTANT
*
Prerequisites
SExpansion hardware has been added in the CBSC database, and the
CDF file has been generated.
SThe expansion devices have been inserted into the C–CCP cage and
are in the OOS_MANUAL state at the CBSC MM.
SThe site specific CDF (with the expansion hardware) and CAL files
have been loaded onto the LMF.
SThe LMF has the same code and dds files as the CBSC to download.
Do not download code or data to any cards other than those
you are working on. Downloading code or data to other
cards will take the site OUT OF SERVICE.
The code file version numbers must match the version
numbers required for the upgrade cards (refer to NO TAG).
If the numbers do not match, the site may go OUT OF
SERVICE.
It is mandatory that the bts–#.cdf and cbsc–#.cdf
files on the LMF computer for this BTS are copies of the
corresponding files created in the CBSC database (see
NO TAG).
The CAL file loaded on the LMF computer for this BTS
must have come from the CBSC.
IMPORTANT
*
STest equipment has been configured per Figure H-11, Figure H-12,
Figure H-13, or Figure H-14.
