FRU Optimization/ATP Test Matrix
Usage & Background
Periodic maintenance of a site may also may mandate re–optimization of
specific portions of the site. An outline of some basic guidelines is
included in the following tables.
NOTE Re–optimization steps listed for any assembly detailed in the
tables below must be performed anytime an RF cable associated
with it is replaced.

C–CCP Shelf All sector TX and RX paths to all
Combined CDMA Channel Processor
(C–CCP) shelves.
Multicoupler/
Preselector Card
The three or six affected sector RX paths for
the C–CCP shelf in the BTS frames.
BBX board RX and TX paths of the affected C–CCP
shelf / BBX board.
CIO Card All RX and TX paths of the affected
CDMA carrier.
Any LPA Module The affected sector TX path.
LPA Backplane The affected sector TX path.

Inter-frame Cabling
Optimization must be performed after the replacement of any RF cabling
between BTS frames.

The affected sector/antenna TX paths.
Detailed Optimization/ATP Test Matrix
Table C-3 outlines in more detail the tests that would need to be
performed if one of the BTS components were to fail and be replaced. It
is also assumes that all modules are placed OOS–ROM via the LMF
until full redundancy of all applicable modules is implemented.
The following guidelines should also be noted when using this table.
NOTE Not every procedure required to bring the site back on line is
indicated in Table C-3. It is meant to be used as a guideline
ONLY. The table assumes that the user is familiar enough with
the BTS Optimization/ATP procedure to understand which test
equipment set ups, calibrations, and BTS site preparation will be
required before performing the Table # procedures referenced.
Various passive BTS components (such as the TX and RX directional
couplers, Preselector IO, CIO; etc.) only call for a TX or RX calibration
audit to be performed in lieu of a full path calibration. If the RX or TX
path calibration audit fails, the entire RF path calibration will need to be
repeated. If the RF path calibration fails, further troubleshooting is
warranted.
Whenever any C–CCP BACKPLANE is replaced, it is assumed that
only power to the C–CCP shelf being replaced is turned off via the
breaker supplying that shelf.
Whenever any DISTRIBUTION BACKPLANE is replaced it is assumed
that the power to the entire RFM frame is removed and the Preselector
I/O is replaced. The modem frame should be brought up as if it were a
new installation.
NOTE If any significant change in signal level results from any
component being replaced in the RX or TX signal flow paths, it
would be identified by re–running the RX and TX calibration
audit command.
When the CIO is replaced, the C–CCP shelf remains powered up. The
BBX boards may need to be removed, then re–installed into their
original slots, and re–downloaded (code and BLO data). RX and TX
calibration audits should then be performed.

BBX Gain Set Point vs. BTS Output Considerations
Usage & Background
Table D-1 outlines the relationship between the total of all code domain
channel element gain settings (digital root sum of the squares) and the
BBX Gain Set Point between 33.0 dBm and 44.0 dBm. The resultant RF
output (as measured at the top of the BTS in dBm) is shown in the table.
The table assumes that the BBX Bay Level Offset (BLO) values have
been calculated.
As an illustration, consider a BBX keyed up to produce a CDMA carrier
with only the Pilot channel (no MCCs forward link enabled). Pilot gain
is set to 262. In this case, the BBX Gain Set Point is shown to correlate
exactly to the actual RF output anywhere in the 33 to 44 dBm output
range. (This is the level used to calibrate the BTS).

Introduction
Programming of each of the BTS BBX synthesizers is performed by the
BTS GLIs via the CHI bus. This programming data determines the
transmit and receive transceiver operating frequencies (channels) for
each BBX.
1900 MHz PCS Channels
Figure E-1 shows the valid channels for the North American PCS
1900 MHz frequency spectrum. There are 10 CDMA wireline or
non–wireline band channels used in a CDMA system (unique per
customer operating system).

Calculating 1900 MHz Center Frequencies
Table E-1 shows selected 1900 MHz CDMA candidate operating
channels, listed in both decimal and hexadecimal, and the corresponding
transmit, and receive frequencies. Center frequencies (in MHz) for
channels not shown in the table may be calculated as follows:
STX = 1930 + 0.05 * Channel#
Example: Channel 262
TX = 1930 + 0.05*262 = 1943.10 MHz
SRX = TX – 80
Example: Channel 262
RX = 1943.10 – 80 = 1863.10 MHz
Actual frequencies used depend on customer CDMA system frequency
plan.
Each CDMA channel requires a 1.77 MHz frequency segment. The
actual CDMA carrier is 1.23 MHz wide, with a 0.27 MHz guard band on
both sides of the carrier.
Minimum frequency separation required between any CDMA carrier and
the nearest NAMPS/AMPS carrier is 900 kHz (center-to-center).

Calculating 800 MHz Center Frequencies
Table E-2 shows selected 800 MHz CDMA candidate operating
channels, listed in both decimal and hexadecimal, and the corresponding
transmit, and receive frequencies. Center frequencies (in MHz) for
channels not shown in the table may be calculated as follows:
SChannels 1–777
TX = 870 + 0.03 * Channel#
Example: Channel 262
TX = 870 + 0.03*262 = 877.86 MHz
SChannels 1013–1023
TX = 870 + 0.03 * (Channel# – 1023)
Example: Channel 1015
TX = 870 +0.03 *(1015 – 1023) = 869.76 MHz
SRX = TX – 45 MHz
Example: Channel 262
RX = 877.86 –45 = 832.86 MHz

Oct 2003 1X SCt 4812T BTS Optimization/ATP F-3
Agilent R7495A Test Equipment Setup
This test equipment requires a warm-up period of at least 30 minutes
before BTS testing or calibration begins.
Using the Agilent E7495A with the LMF
The Agilent E7495A does not require the use of the 19MHz frequency
reference; if connected, it will be ignored. The Even Sec SYNC
connection is required.
The Agilent E7495A signal generator is only calibrated down to –80db.
In order to achieve accurate FER testing, be sure the RX setup includes
at least 40db of attenuation. This will ensure the signal generator will
output sufficient power to operate in the calibrated range.
Set the IP Address as described in Table F-1.
Table F-1: Set IP Address on Agilent E7495A test set
nStep Action
1Use the System Button > Controls >IPAdmin to set an
IP address on the E7495A as 128.0.0.49, and Netmask to
255.255.255.128.
Connections
It is recommended that you use a hub with BNC and RJ–45 connections.
[Suggested models: Netgear model EN104 (4 port) or EN108 (8 port).
Do NOT use model numbers ending with “TP”; those have no BNC
connectors.]
The LMF will connect to the hub which in turn is connected to the BTS
and to the Agilent E7495A.
Agilent E7495A to Hub – This is an Ethernet cable, RJ–45 to RJ–45.
LMF to Hub – Use one of the following cables to connect the LMF to
the Hub:
Ethernet cable, RJ–45 to RJ–45 (be sure that the LAN card is set for
either AUTO or to use the RJ–45 only).
Coax cable between LAN card and Hub. (Use a “T” on the hub and
connect a cable between the other end of the “T” and the BTS LAN
connection).
Hub to BTS – Use BNC “T” connector on the hub. [If your hub doesn’t
have BNC ports, use a BNC to UTP adapter.]

Cable Calibration
Follow the directions in the WinLMF program to calibrate cables.
Calibrate the short cable (see Figure 3-15 on page 3-64) and two 10
dB pads to get a base line and then calibrate the TX and RX setup.
Since you need at least 40 dB of loss when doing the FER test, the
setup for RX is the same as TX.

Test Equipment Set-up
Purpose
This section covers other test equipment and peripherals not covered in
Chapter 3. Procedures for the manual testing are covered here, along
with procedures to calibrate the TX and RX cables using the signal
generator and spectrum analyzer.
Equipment Warm up
NOTE Warm-up BTS equipment for a minimum of 60 minutes prior to
performing the BTS optimization procedure. This assures BTS
site stability and contributes to optimization accuracy. (Time
spent running initial power-up, hardware/
firmware audit, and BTS download counts as warm-up time.)
CAUTION If any piece of test equipment (i.e., test cable, RF adapter) has
been replaced, re-calibration must be performed. Failure to do so
could introduce measurement errors, resulting in incorrect
measurements and degradation to system performance.
NOTE Calibration of the communications test set (or equivalent test
equipment) must be performed at the site before calibrating the
overall test set. Calibrate the test equipment after it has been
allowed to warm-up and stabilize for a minimum of 60 minutes.
Prerequisites
Prior to performing any of these procedures, all preparations for
preparing the LMF, updating LMF files, and any other pre-calibration
procedures, as stated in Chapter 3, must have been completed.

Download ROM Code
ROM code can be downloaded to a device that is in any state. After the
download is started, the device being downloaded changes to
OOS_ROM (blue) and remains OOS_ROM (blue). The same R–level
RAM code must then be downloaded to the device. This procedure
includes steps for both the ROM code download and the RAM code
download.
ROM code files cannot be selected automatically. The ROM code file
must be selected manually. Follow the procedure in Table G-1 to
download ROM code.
Prerequisite
SROM and RAM code files exist for the device to be downloaded.
CAUTION The R–level of the ROM code to be downloaded must be the
same as the R–level of the ROM code for other devices in the
BTS. Code must not be mixed in a BTS. This procedure should
only be used to upgrade replacement devices for a BTS and it
should not be used to upgrade all devices in a BTS. If a BTS is
to be upgraded from one R–level to another, the optimization
and ATP procedures must first be performed with the BTS in the
original configuration. The upgrade should then be done by the
CBSC.

Introduction
Purpose
This procedure is a guide to expanding your system with multiple
carriers while the system remains in service. This procedure also allows
you to perform on site maintenance (replace defective boards and
recalibrate) while the remainder of the site stays in service.
Motorola recommends that you perform this procedure during a
maintenance window.
This procedure cannot be performed on BTSs with 4–to–1 combiners.
The procedure can only be performed on one side of the BTS at one
time. That is, LPAs 1, 2 ,3, 7, 8, 9 (feed antennas 1, 2, 3) can be
calibrated while LPAs 6, 7, 8, 10, 11, 12 (feed antennas 4, 5, 6) remain
in service and vice versa.
Equipment Warm up
NOTE Calibration of the communications test set (or equivalent test
equipment) must be performed at the site before calibrating the
overall test set. Calibrate the test equipment after it has been
allowed to warm-up and stabilize for a minimum of 60 minutes.
CAUTION If any piece of test equipment (i.e., test cable, RF adapter) has
been replaced, re-calibration must be performed. Failure to do so
could introduce measurement errors, causing incorrect
measurements and degradation to system performance.

Power Delta Calibration
Power Delta Calibration Introduction
The In–service calibration procedure has several differences from a
normal calibration procedure. One of these is the use of a spectrum
analyzer instead of a power meter to measure power. Power meters are
broadband measurement devices and cannot be used to measure power
during In–service Calibration since other carriers are operating. A
spectrum analyzer can be used because it measures power at a given
frequency. However, measuring power using a spectrum analyzer is less
accurate than using a power meter. Therefore, you must compensate for
the difference (delta) between the power meter and the spectrum
analyzer.
HP8921A Power Delta Calibration
Use the HP8921A Spectrum Analyzer to measure power during
In–Service Calibration for 800 MHz systems. After the offset value has
been calculated, add it to the TX cable loss value.
Follow the procedure in Table H-1 to perform the HP8921A Power Delta
Calibration procedure.
NOTE This procedure requires two HP8921As.
Table H-1: HP8921A Power Delta Calibration Procedure
Step Action
NOTE
Perform this procedure after test equipment has been allowed to warm–up and stabilize for a minimum
of 60 minutes.
1Connect a short RF cable between the HP8921A Duplex Out port and the HP437B power sensor (see
Figure H-1).
2Set the HP8921A signal source as follows:
Measure mode to CDMA Generator

CAUTION This feature does NOT have fault tolerance at this time. The
system has no safe–guards to stop you from doing something
that will take 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.
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.
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.
CAUTION 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
on the other cards in the frame. If the numbers do not match, the
site may go OUT OF SERVICE.
The BTS–#.cdf, CBSC–#.cdf, and CAL files for this BTS must
have come from the CBSC.
STest equipment has been configured per Figure H-9 and Figure H-10.
SAn RFDS (or at a minimum a directional coupler), whose loss is
already known, must be in line to perform the in–service calibration.
STest equipment has been calibrated after 1 hour warm up.
SA short RF cable and two BNC–N adapters are available to perform
Cable Calibration.
SThe Power Delta Calibration has been performed (see Table H-1,
Table H-2, or Table H-3).

Transmit & Receive Antenna VSWR
Purpose
The following procedures will verify that the Voltage Standing Wave
Ratio (VSWR) of all antennas and associated feed lines fall within
acceptable limits. The tests will be performed on all antennas in a
sequential manner (i.e., ANT 1, then ANT 2) until all antennas/feedlines
have been verified.
These procedures should be performed periodically by measuring each
respective antenna’s VSWR (reflected power) to verify that the antenna
system is within acceptable limits. This will ensure continued peak
system performance.
The antenna VSWR will be calculated at the CDMA carrier frequency
assigned to each antenna. Record and verify that they meet the test
specification of less than or equal to 1.5:1.
NOTE Motorola recommends that the installer be familiar with the
following procedure in its entirety before beginning the actual
procedure. Ensure that the entire site is currently not in service.
This test is used to test RX antennas by substituting RX
frequencies for TX frequencies.
Study the site engineering documents and perform the following tests
only after first verifying that the RF cabling configuration required to
interconnect the BTS frames and antennas meet requirements called out
in the BTS Installation Manual.
Test equipment
The following pieces of test equipment will be required to perform this
test:
SLMF
SDirectional coupler
SCommunications test set
WARNING Prior to performing antenna tests, insure that no CDMA BBX
channels are keyed. Failure to do so could result in personal
injury or serious equipment damage.

Downloading Minimum Canned BTS Router Configuration Files
Downloading Overview
After they are generated on the OMC–R, the BTS router canned
configuration files must be transferred to another computer platform
from which they can be installed into the BTS routers. A number of
procedures may be used to move the canned configuration files from the
OMC–R to a platform from which they can be loaded into the routers.
Some alternatives are:
1. If a floppy diskette drive is available at the OMC–R, such as the one
for UNO workstations, the configuration files can be transferred to
an LMF computer or similar machine using the CDF file transfer
procedure in the Preparing the LMF section of this manual.
Directories identified in Table J-3 must be used rather than those in
the CDF file transfer procedure.
2. If a Windows–based server connection is available in the operators
network and it can provide an FTP or telnet connection to the
OMC–R, files may be transferred by either the FTP or telnet
methods.
3. If a dial–up connection is available for accessing the OMC–R, an
FTP or telnet session may be possible to transfer files to the

Verifying IOS Canned Version of the CF Memory Card68P09258A31–A

Verifying IOS Canned Version of the CF Memory Card
Overview
This section covers the procedures and commands required to verify the
IOS version loaded on BTS router CF memory cards and copy standard
canned configuration files to the routers. Because of the set–up required
and the length of some of the procedures, Motorola recommends
performing the actions covered in this section at a central location to
prepare the BTS routers for installation prior to the site visit.
IOS Version Verification and File Sequence Position
Version verification – The IOS version loaded on the BTS router CF
memory card should be verified as the version required for operation on
the network where the routers will be installed. If the loaded IOS version
is not correct, it can be replaced with a different version. There are
several methods available to accomplish version verification. These
depend on the equipment and software applications the user selects to
use in installing the canned configuration files in the BTS routers.
Appropriate verification procedures are included in each of the two
canned configuration installation methods covered in this section.
Methods to change the loaded IOS version are provided in the Change
BTS Router IOS Version section of this appendix and are referenced at
the appropriate places in the canned configuration installation methods.
File sequence position – During initialization, the MWR 1941 router
will first search the startup–config file for a boot system command
line telling it in what directory and file to find the boot loader. If this line
is not found, the router will default to attempting to boot from the first
file in its flash memory. Flash memory for the MWR 1941 is the CF
memory card (software identifier slot0:). The canned configuration files
used for BTS router installation do not contain a boot system command
line because of the need to maintain flexibility for IOS version changes.
Because of this, it is critical that the IOS file is the first file listed on the
CF memory card. The canned configuration installation procedures
contain steps to assure that this is the case, and, if it is not, provide
guidance to correct the condition. It is important to remember that, if the
router boots and displays a rommon 1 > prompt, the IOS file is
missing, out of sequence, has a corrupted flash memory image or the
startup–config file contains a boot system line which specifies a
missing or incorrect IOS pathname/filename.
Canned Configuration File Installation
Filename and installation location requirements – The canned
configuration files for the BTS routers must be copied to the CF memory
card. The filename of the file on the CF memory card must be
canned–config. Canned configuration file location and filename
requirements are a result of Mobile Wireless Center (MWC) actions
during the process of switching a BTS from packet to circuit mode. In
this process, the MWC will query the BTS routers’ slot0: directory for a
file named canned–config. A missing or mis–named file will cause
problems with execution of the mode–switching process. J

J-14
Installation Methods – The startup–config configuration file used
by the BTS router during initialization is stored in NVRAM. This is a
memory device internal to the router and is separate from the CF
memory card. To install the canned configuration file so the router will
use it during boot–up, the file must be copied into the
startup–config file in NVRAM. There are two methods available to
accomplish this:
1. Using a tftp server application to copy the canned configuration file
from the Windows–based LMF computer to the CF memory card
installed in a router, and then copying it to the startup–config
file in the routers NVRAM
2. Using a CF memory card reader to copy the canned configuration
file to a CF memory card, and then, once the CF memory card is
installed in the router, using a HyperTerminal communication
session to copy the file from the CF memory card to the
startup–config file in the routers NVRAM
Comparison of methods – Preparation for using the tftp server
application method is extensive and requires setting up simultaneous
serial and FE communication sessions with the router. This method
offers the advantage of being able to verify IOS file sequence position
immediately and supporting direct file transfers between the router and
LMF computer without removing the CF memory card. As an
alternative, using a CF memory card reader to copy the canned
configuration file to a CF memory card, and from there to the
startup–config file requires very little set–up. With this method, the
IOS file sequence position can only be verified once the CF memory
card is installed in the router, and any file transfers between the router
and LMF computer require physically moving the CF memory card
between the router and card reader.
Procedures to use each method – Using the tftp server application to
copy the canned configuration file to a CF memory card is covered in the
Method 1 subsection. Performing the transfer process with a card reader
is covered in the Method 2 subsection. The applicable procedures for
verifying the loaded IOS version and file sequence position are included
in each method.
File operations using a CF memory card reader Only file transfers
should be performed using the CF memory card reader. CF memory card
formatting should be performed in a BTS router using a HyperTerminal
connection. Attempting to format a CF memory card from a
Windows–based computer using a card reader could result in
unpredictable BTS router operation.
CAUTION Do not format BTS router CF memory cards using a
Windows–based computer. Only format CF memory cards in a
BTS router.

Replacing Installed BTS Router CF Memory Card IOS Version
Background
BTS routers are supplied with CF memory cards pre–loaded with a
version of the IOS. Prior to installing the routers in a BTS, the loaded
IOS version should be verified as being the one required for the network.
It is critical to also verify that the IOS file is the first file on the CF
memory card. If another file precedes the IOS file, the BTS router will
not boot properly and will not function in the network.
Equipment and Software Required for Verification Methods
The following items are required to perform this procedure:
SA Windows–based computer which meets the requirements of the
LMF computer platform as specified in Chapter 3 of this manual:

Method 2: Using a CF Memory Card Reader for Replacement of Installed IOS
Version and Changing File Sequence Position
This subsection contains the file replacement and file sequence
manipulation procedures to use when transferring files with a CF
memory card reader.
Replace IOS Version Installed on the CF Memory Card
Description – This procedure covers using an LMF computer equipped
with a CF memory card reader to perform the following activities:
1. Verify the IOS version loaded on a CF memory card and running on
a BTS router
2. Replace the IOS version installed in a BTS router
3. Ensure the IOS file is the first file on the CF memory card
Additional required equipment/software For this method, the
following equipment item and associated software is required in addition
to the common items required for both methods:
SCompact Flash memory card reader device and software driver for the
operating system installed on the LMF computer
CAUTION Card readers for other non–volatile, solid–state memory devices
such as Smart Media cards will not work with the CF memory
cards used in the MWR 1941 routers. Do not attempt to use a
card reader intended for another type of memory device.
Prerequisites – The following are required prior to performing this
procedure:
SThe LMF computer and BTS router have been prepared for CF
memory card reader file transfer and are operating as they would be
after performing the procedures in steps 1 through 8 of Table J-8
SA copy of the required IOS version is loaded into the desired directory
of the LMF computer

File operations using a CF memory card reader Only file transfers
should be performed using the CF memory card reader. CF memory card
formatting should be performed in a BTS router using a HyperTerminal
connection. Attempting to format a CF memory card from a
Windows–based computer using a card reader could result in
unpredictable BTS router operation.
CAUTION Do not format BTS router CF memory cards using a
Windows–based computer. Only format CF memory cards in a
BTS router.
Replacing installed IOS version – Follow the procedure in Table J-11
to replace the installed IOS version using a CF memory card reader and
to ensure the IOS file is first in the stored file sequence on the CF
memory card.

2a In the right–hand pane of Windows Explorer, highlight the IOS file to be removed.
2b Right–click and select Delete from the popup menu.
3CAUTION
When performing the following step and its associated substeps, files should be moved to and from
the CF memory card one by one to reduce the potential for disrupting the the CF memory card file
sequence. Do not attempt to move multiple files by highlighting and dragging and dropping all of
them at one time.
If there are more files on the CF memory card which must be retained, perform the following:
3a Scroll the left–hand pane of Windows Explorer to locate the LMF computer directory where the
required IOS version and canned configuration files are stored.
3b In the right–hand pane, highlight the additional file on the CF memory card which is to be
retained.

Method 2: Verification and Replacement of Installed rommon Version Using
a CF Memory Card Reader
Description
This procedure covers using an LMF computer equipped with a CF
memory card reader to perform the following activities:
1. Verify the rommon version loaded and running on a BTS router
2. Replace the rommon version installed in a BTS router
Additional required equipment/software
For this method, the following equipment item and associated software
is required in addition to the common items required for both methods:
SCF memory card reader device and software driver for the operating
system installed on the LMF computer
CAUTION Card readers for other non–volatile, solid–state memory devices
such as Smart Media cards will not work with the CF memory
cards used in the MWR 1941 routers. Do not attempt to use a
card reader intended for another type of memory device.
Prerequisites
The following are required prior to performing this procedure:
SThe LMF computer and BTS router have been prepared for CF
memory card reader file transfer and are operating as they would be
after performing the procedures in steps 1 through 8 of Table J-8
SA copy of the required rommon version is loaded into the desired
directory of the LMF computer
File operations using a CF memory card reader
Only file transfers should be performed using the CF memory card
reader. CF memory card formatting should be performed in a BTS router
using a HyperTerminal connection. Attempting to format a CF memory
card from a Windows–based computer using a card reader could result in
unpredictable BTS router operation.
CAUTION Do not format BTS router CF memory cards using a
Windows–based computer. Only format CF memory cards in a
BTS router. J

Recovery From BTS Router Boot to rommon
Introduction
ROM monitor boot conditions
Under certain circumstances the BTS router will initialize with the ROM
monitor (rommon) operating system rather than the IOS. These
circumstances include:
SIOS file is missing from the CF memory card
SIOS file is not the first file on the CF memory card
SIOS file image on the CF memory card is corrupted
SStartup–config file contains an outdated boot system line specifying
an IOS file which has been replaced with an updated version
SStartup–config file contains boot system line with typographical
error(s) in the IOS filename
Description
Router operation on rommon is signalled by the display of the rommon
# > prompt, where # is a number which increments each time a
command is issued. Rommon is a low–level operating system which
provides limited capabilities for router testing and troubleshooting
operations, but does not support any operations on files beyond viewing
directory contents or booting from a specified file. As a result, files can
not be copied or deleted when the router is operating on rommon.
Recovery methods
Two recovery methods are included in this section. The first is the
simplest and requires that a valid, uncorrupted IOS version is installed
on the CF memory card. The second method requires additional
equipment and must be used in instances such as when an IOS file is not
installed on the CF memory card or the installed IOS image is corrupted.
Simple Recovery from Boot to rommon
Requirements
Unless it is certain, that the IOS image on the CF memory card is
corrupted, this method should always be the first attempted to recover
the router from a rommon initialization. This method does not require
any additional equipment beyond the items necessary to load canned
configuration files into the BTS router. To be effective, this method does
require that a valid, uncorrupted IOS image file is installed on the
routers CF memory card.
Recovery
Follow the procedure in Table J-15 to attempt a simple recovery from a
BTS router rommon initialization. J

Extended Recovery from Boot to rommon
Requirements
If rommon boot recovery attempts fail using the simple recovery
method, this method must be used to reboot a BTS router which has
initialized with rommon. This method requires additional equipment
beyond the items necessary to load canned configuration files into the
BTS router. Extended recovery requires formatting the CF memory card
from the rommon–initialized router and reloading the reformatted CF
memory card with the required IOS version. J

BTS Router Canned Configuration File
This section presents listings of the blue and red router canned
configuration file contents for the MWR 1941 BTS routers. The blue
router is the primary router on the BTS LAN subnet 192.168.146.0, and
the red router is the primary on BTS LAN subnet 192.168.147.0. The
canned configuration files allow communication with the BTS routers
for both on–site FE cabling connectivity verification and for
downloading the routers from the network with the full, site–specific
operational configuration.
Obtaining the Latest Configuration File Content
The files included here are for example only. The correct canned
configuration file content for each BTS router should be generated at the
OMC–R using the /screl/active/bin/gen_btsrtr_canned_config.ksh script.
Configuration File Examples
Examples of both configuration files are provided in the following
subsections.

J-84
Preparation for Site Turn–over
Prepare the BTS site for turn–over to the control of the OMC–R by
performing the procedures in Table J-18 and Table J-19.
Table J-18: Prepare for Site Turn–over
Step Action
1After disconnecting it from the BTS router, shut down the LMF computer.
2If any additional external support equipment was used during the installation process, shut it down,
disconnect it from the frame.
3Account for all tools used and parts removed from the frame during the installation, being sure none
were left inside the frame.
4Visually inspect the frame for any foreign objects left inside, and remove any discovered.
5Visually inspect all cable connections, ensuring they are connected as required for normal BTS
operation.
6Be sure all internal frame cables are routed and secured to prevent damage to them when the frame
doors are closed.
7Be sure all external frame and BTS router cables are routed and secured so they will not interfere with
normal maintenance and operational activities at the site.
8Be sure the BTS routers are powered up and not reporting alarms other than span alarms.
Returning the Site to OMC–R Control
Follow the procedure in Table J-19 to return the site to OMC–R control.
Table J-19: Returning the Site to Operational Control
Step Action
1Contact the OMC–R, and notify the operator the installation is complete. Request notification from
the operator when the routers have been downloaded with the full site–specific configurations and are
verified as functioning normally.
2When notified router operation has been verified and the OMC–R can assume control of the site,
perform the following:
2a On any frames which were opened, close and secure the cabinet doors.
2b Verify no alarm conditions are being reported to the OMC–R with the frame doors closed.
2c Prepare all equipment, tools, and parts removed from the frame for transport from the site.
What to Do Next
The installation of the Packet Backhaul option is complete. When the
site is secured, there are no further actions to perform at the BTS site.
