NOTE
This step edits the REDIRECT2 parameters so that the Global Service Redirect Message to be
broadcast on the paging channel redirects all subscribers away from the sector with the failed
equipment and onto a CDMA channel at a neighbor sector/site.
Enter the following command at the prompt:
omc–000000>EDIT SECTOR– REDIRECT2 !
The system prompts you to enter each command parameter value one at a time. Answer the
prompts in the following order:
expecting an integer number (from 0 to 65535)

(Use the Network ID the subscriber units should expect to find on the system they are being
redirected to. This example uses 555.)
expecting an integer number (from 0 to 2047)
,  ... 
(A list of CDMA channels for neighbor sites that the subscriber units can use for redirection. This
example uses 200, 350, 400, 725, 75, 175, 100, 575 and 950.)

Enter the following command at the prompt:
omc–000000>EDIT SECTOR– CONGESTCONF !
The system prompts you to enter each control parameter value one at a time. Skip through the
prompts until you get to the following:
 , enter ENABLE
(This forces the Global Service Redirect Message to be broadcast on the sector paging channel.)
The system displays the values of the control parameters. Verify that only the
GLOBALREDIRECT value changed.
omc–000000>Accept [yes/no]?
Enter Y to accept the change.
Now the Global Service Redirection Message is sent over the sector paging channels. All
subscribers are redirected away from the sector and onto a different system. This effectively shuts
down the sector.

resource, but only SHUTDOWN waits indefinitely for the calls to terminate. When the resource
becomes idle, SHUTDOWN automatically transitions the resource to the locked/disabled state.
14
15
16
If you redirected subscribers but do not want to use SHUTDOWN, go to step 15.
If you redirected subscribers and want to use SHUTDOWN, go to step 16.
Wait three minutes to allow any active calls to terminate then go to step 18.
Shutdown all carriers equipped for the target sector at the BTS by repeatedly entering the
following command at the prompt:
omc–000000>SHUTDOWN CARRIER–
Repeat this command for each sector–carrier associated with the target sector.
NOTE
When a BBX is keyed, it is in an UNLOCKED/ENABLED/ACTIVE state.
When a BBX is in an UNLOCKED/ENABLED/IDLE state, it is dekeyed and INS_STANDBY.
As long as the sector–carrier associated with the BBX is LOCKED/DISABLED/IDLE, the BBX
cannot be keyed. Also the redundant BBX does not switchover for an INS_STANDBY primary
BBX.
17
Observe that the system automatically returns a “Network Element State Change Event” message
for each carrier after it is shutdown. This message shows the old and new states for the carrier. The
CARRIER will go from UNLOCKED/ENABLED/ACTIVE to
SHUTTINGDOWN/ENABLED/ACTIVE to LOCKED/DISABLED/IDLE.
When each BTS carrier shutdown in step 16 is reported as LOCKED/DISABLED/IDLE, the
primary BBXs associated with the target sector–carrier will be reported as
UNLOCKED/ENABLED/IDLE.
If you determine that it is taking too long for carriers to shutdown and the associated primary
BBXs to transition to UNLOCKED/ENABLED/IDLE state, perform step 18 to abort the
shutdown process and LOCK/DISABLE the carriers.
18
Lock/disable all carriers equipped for the target sector at the BTS by repeatedly entering either of
the following commands at the prompt:
omc–000000>DISABLE CARRIER– UNC
omc–000000>LOCK CARRIER–
Repeat the command for each sector–carrier associated with the target sector.

Shut Down Carrier Signaling Functions
for a Packet BTS
If a carrier shutdown is required for the FRU replacement and the site is
currently under CBSC control, follow the procedure in Table 10-10 to
disable the carrier at a packet BTS.
CAUTION
This carrier shut down procedure takes a carrier
out–of–service (OOS) but does not affect the other carriers.
To minimize system impact, it may be advisable (but not
necessary) to perform this procedure during a maintenance
window.
IMPORTANT
The EDIT CARRIER REDIRECT or REDIRECT2
command does NOT affect calls in progress and does NOT
move these calls to another sector/carrier. The command
only prevents future calls from being originated on the
targeted sector/carrier. If active call processing is still
taking place in the target sector/carrier, wait for any active
calls to terminate before disabling the sector/carrier.
IMPORTANT
The SHUTDOWN command does NOT affect calls in
progress and does NOT move these calls to another BTS.
Shutdown is a camp–on state, it prevents future calls from
being originated on the targeted resource and waits for calls
to terminate. When the resource becomes idle, it is
automatically transitioned to the locked/disabled state.
Shutdown does not redirect subscribers to another
site/carrier.
Shutdown camp–on time is indefinite. Shutdown can be
aborted at anytime by invoking the LOCK or DISABLE
command.
NOTE
Refer to the System Commands Reference manual
(68P09256A58) part/of Cellular System Administration
CDMA2000 1X – 99R09255A10 CD–ROM for a complete

Action
AT THE OMC–R
Open a CLI window. Refer to the Accessing OMC–R CLI Window section on page 10-2.
* IMPORTANT
It is recommended that you redirect subscribers to another sector/carrier and then wait for any
active calls to terminate before locking/disabling the sector/carrier.
NOTE
SHUTDOWN and REDIRECT both prevent future calls from being originated on the targeted
resource, but only SHUTDOWN waits indefinitely for the calls to terminate. When the resource
becomes idle, SHUTDOWN automatically transitions the resource to the locked/disabled state.
If you are not concerned about redirecting subscribers and waiting for any active calls to terminate
and you just want to lock/disable the sector/carrier, perform step 15 and step 20 only.
If you are not concerned about redirecting subscribers but you want to use SHUTDOWN and wait
for all active calls to terminate before locking/disabling the sector/carrier, perform step 15, step 18
and step 19.
If you want to redirect subscribers and then wait for any active calls to terminate before
locking/disabling the sector/carrier, go to step 3.
NOTE
The REDIRECT command is used to redirect subscribers to an 1.9 GHz site or to invoke the
REDIRECT2 command which is then used to redirect subscribers to a different CDMA carrier
frequency. REDIRECT2 is the preferred command if an alternate CDMA carrier is available.
* IMPORTANT
Record the values shown in the following system display response. These values are used to
answer the prompts for the EDIT CARRIER REDIRECT command when restoring signaling
operations at the end of the replacement procedure.
View the status of the carrier signaling REDIRECT parameters for an applicable carrier equipped
for a specific sector by entering the following command at the prompt:

 , enter DISABLE
(This will revert the Global Service Redirect Message to congestion control.)
The system displays the values of the control parameters. Verify that only the
GLOBALREDIRECT value changed.
omc–000000>Accept [yes/no]?
Enter Y to accept the change.
Now the Global Service Redirection Message will only be sent over the sector paging channels
when there is traffic congestion in the sector.
Enter the following command at the prompt:
omc–000000>DISPLAY BTS– CONGESTCONF
Observe the system display response.
Verify that the CONGESTCONF globalredirect is disabled for each carrier at the BTS.
View the status of the signaling REDIRECT parameters for all carriers equipped for the applicable
BTS by entering the following command at the prompt:
omc–000000>DISPLAY BTS– REDIRECT
Observe that the values in the system display response should match the values input in step 4 of

Basic Troubleshooting
11
Overview
The information in this chapter addresses some of the scenarios likely to
be encountered by Customer Field Engineering (CFE) team members
while performing BTS optimization and acceptance testing. This
troubleshooting guide was created as an interim reference document for
use in the field. It provides “what to do if” basic troubleshooting
suggestions when the BTS equipment does not perform according to the
procedures documented in the manual.
Comments are consolidated from inputs provided by CFEs and
information gained from experience in Motorola labs and classrooms.
Table 11-1: Login Failure Troubleshooting Procedures
Step
Action
If the GLI LED is solid RED, it implies a hardware failure. Reset GLI by re-seating it. If this persists,
install GLI card in GLI slot and retry. A Red LED may also indicate no termination on an external
LAN connector (power entry compartment at rear of frame).
Verify that the span line is disconnected at the Span I/O card. If the span is still connected, verify the
CBSC has disabled the BTS.
Try to ‘ping’ the GLI.
Verify the LMF is connected to the primary LAN (LAN A) at the LAN shelf below the CCP2 cage. If
LAN A is not the active LAN, force a LAN switch to LAN A by following the procedure in
Table 11-2.
Verify the LMF was configured properly.
If a Xircom parallel BNC LAN interface is being used, verify the BTS-LMF cable is RG-58 (flexible
black cable less than 2.5 feet in length).
Verify the external LAN connectors are properly terminated (power entry compartment at rear of
frame).
Verify a T-adapter is not used on LMF computer side connector when connected to the primary LAN
at the LAN shelf.
Try connecting to the Ethernet Out port in the power entry compartment (rear of frame). Use a
TRB–to–BNC (triax–to–coax) adapter at the LAN connector for this connection.
10
Re-boot the LMF and retry.
11
Re-seat the GLI and retry
12
Verify GLI IP addresses are configured properly by following the procedure in Table 11-3.

Table 11-2: Force Ethernet LAN A to Active State as Primary LAN
Step
Action
If LAN A is not the active LAN, make certain all external LAN connectors are either terminated with
50Ω loads or cabled to another frame.
If it has not already been done, connect the LMF computer to the stand–alone or starter frame, as
applicable (Table 6-6).
If it has not already been done, start a GUI LMF session and log into the BTS on the active LAN
(Table 6-7).
Remove the 50Ω termination from the LAN B IN connector in the power entry compartment at the
rear of the stand–alone or starter frame. The LMF session will become inactive.
Disconnect the LMF computer from the LAN shelf LAN B connector and connect it to the LAN A
connector.
If the LAN was successfully forced to an active state (the cards in any cage can be selected and
statused), proceed to step 13.
With the 50Ω termination still removed from the LAN B IN connector, remove the 50Ω termination
from LAN B OUT connector. If more than one frame is connected to the LAN, remove the termination
from the last frame in the chain.
If the LAN was successfully forced to an active state (the cards in any cage can be selected and
statused), proceed to step 13.
With the 50Ω terminations still removed from LAN B, unseat each GLI card in each frame connected
to the LAN, until all are disconnected from the shelf backplanes.
10
Reseat each GLI card until all are reconnected.
11
Allow the GLIs to power up, and attempt to select and status cards in the CCP shelves. If LAN A is
active, proceed to step 13.
12
If LAN A is still not active, troubleshoot or continue troubleshooting following the procedures in 13.
13
Replace the 50Ω terminations removed from the LAN B IN and OUT connectors.

Action
If it has not previously been done, establish an MMI communication session with the GLI card as
described in Table 6-11.
Enter the following command to display the IP address and subnet mask settings for the card:
config lg0 current
A response similar to the following will be displayed:
GLI3>config lg0 current
lg0: IP address is set to
DEFAULT (configured based on card location)
lg0: netmask is set to
DEFAULT (255.255.255.128)
If the IP address setting response shows an IP address rather than “Default (configured based
on card location),” enter the following:
config lg0 ip default
A response similar to the following will be displayed:
GLI3>config lg0 ip default
_param_config_lg0_ip(): param_delete(): 0x00050001
lg0: ip address set to DEFAULT
If the GLI subnet mask setting does not display as “DEFAULT (255.255.255.128),” set it to
default by entering the following command:
config lg0 netmask default
A response similar to the following will be displayed:
GLI3>config lg0 netmask default

MCC–DO Testing
IMPORTANT
The tests in this appendix are provided for information
only. The tests contained herein are not proven, and
recommended equipment and equipment setup is not
provided.
The following acceptance tests evaluate different performance aspects of
the BTS with MCC–DO. This allows the CFE to select testing to meet
the specific requirements for individual maintenance and performance
verification situations.
The WinLMF must be version 2.16.4.0.04 or higher (with FR8000 –
EV–DO manual ATP test support).
Prerequisites
Before attempting to run any performance verification ATP tests, all
procedures outlined in previous Optimization chapters should have been
successfully completed. At a minimum, successful completion of all
BTS BLO calibration, and Bay Level Offset tests is recommended.

MCC–DO Code Domain
The code domain power test verifies the noise floor of a carrier keyed up
at a specific frequency per the CDF file.
Code domain power is the power in each code channel of a CDMA
Channel. The CDMA time reference used in the code domain power test
is derived from the Pilot Channel and is used as the reference for
demodulation of all other code channels. This test verifies that
orthogonality is maintained between the code channels. When transmit
diversity is enabled, this test also verifies that time alignment is also
maintained.

pilot time offset of a carrier keyed up at a specific frequency per the CDF
file.
The calibrated communications test set measures the pilot time offset in
microseconds, verifying that the result is within 3 microseconds (10
microseconds for JCDMA systems) of the target pilot time offset (zero
microseconds).
Pilot time is defined as the estimate of CDMA System Time derived
from observation of the pilot signal at the base station RF output port.
Pilot time alignment error is the difference between the measured pilot
time and the expected time, taking into account CDMA System Time
and pilot offset.

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 B-1.
Table B-1: Set IP Address on Agilent E7495A test set
n Step
Action
Use 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 6-12 or Figure 6-14) 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.
ATP Setup
TX Path Calibration setup is shown in Test Equipment Setup (see
Figure 6-19 through Figure 6-22).

The following illustrations, tables, and procedures provide the
information necessary to prepare various items of CDMA test equipment
supported by the WinLMF for BTS calibration and/or acceptance testing.
HP 8921A with PCS Interface
Test Equipment Connections
The following diagram depicts the rear panels of the HP 8921A test
equipment as configured to perform automatic tests. All test equipment
is controlled by the WinLMF via an IEEE–488/GPIB bus. The WinLMF
expects each piece of test equipment to have a factory-set GPIB address
(refer to Table B-8 and Figure B-8). If there is a communications
problem between the WinLMF and any piece of test equipment, verify
that the GPIB addresses have been set correctly and that the GPIB cables
are firmly connected to the test equipment.
Table B-13 shows the connections when not using an external 10 MHz
Rubidium reference.

before connecting the power sensor to the component being calibrated. After connecting the
power sensor to the component, record the calibrated loss immediately.
18
Disconnect all components in the test setup and calibrate each one separately by connecting each
component, one-at-a-time, between the RF OUT ONLY PORT and the power sensor. Record the
calibrated loss value displayed on the power meter.
S Example:
(A) Test Cable(s)
(B) 20 dB Attenuator =
(B) Directional Coupler =
–1.4 dB
–20.1 dB
–29.8 dB
19
After all components are calibrated, reassemble all components together and calculate the total test
setup loss by adding up all the individual losses:
S Example:
Total test setup loss = –1.4 –29.8 –20.1 = –51.3 dB.
This calculated value will be used in the next series of tests.

Downloading ROM Code
Exception Procedure –
Downloading 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.
NOTE
One GLI must be INS_ACT (bright green) before ROM
code can be downloaded to non–GLI devices.
CAUTION
The correct ROM and RAM codes for the software release
used on the BSS must be loaded into BTS devices. To
identify the correct device ROM and RAM code loads for
the software release being used on the BSS, refer to the
Version Matrix section of the SCt CDMA Release Notes
(supplied on the tapes or CD–ROMs containing the BSS
software).
All devices in a BTS must be loaded with the ROM and
RAM code specified for the software release used on the
BSS before any optimization or ATP procedures can be
performed.
If a replacement device is loaded with ROM code which is
not compatible with the BSS software release being used,
the device ROM code can be changed using the LMF
before performing the BTS optimization and ATPs. A
device loaded with later release ROM code can not be
converted back to a previous release ROM code in the field
without Motorola assistance
If it is necessary to download ROM code to a device from the LMF, the
procedure in Table C-1 includes steps for both ROM and RAM code
download using the LMF.
Prerequisites
Prior to performing this procedure, ensure the correct ROM and RAM
code files exist in the LMF computer’s applicable :\\cdma\loads\\code folder for each of the devices
to be loaded.

Downloading ROM Code
– continued
CAUTION
The Release level of the ROM code to be downloaded
must be the one specified for the software release installed
in the BSS. The release level of the ROM code resident in
the other devices in the BTS must also be correct for the
BSS software release being used. ROM code must not be
downloaded to a frame loaded with code for a BSS
software release with which it is not compatible.
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 R15.x to R16.0, the upgrade should be done by the
OMC–R using the DownLoad Manager.
Table C-1: Download ROM and RAM Code to Devices
Step
Action
Click on the device to be loaded.
NOTE
More than one device of the same type can be selected for download by either clicking on each one to

From the BTS menu bar Device pull–down menu, select Status.
– A status report window will appear.
Make a note of the number in the HW Bin Type column.
NOTE
“HW Bin Type” is the Hardware Binary Type for the device. This code is used as the last four digits in
the filename of a device’s binary ROM code file. Using this part of the filename, the ROM code file
can be matched to the device in which it is to be loaded.
Click OK to close the status window.
Click on the device to be loaded.
NOTE
ROM code is automatically selected for download from the :\\version folder>\ specified by the NextLoad property in
the bts–#.cdf file. To check the value of the NextLoad property, click on Util > Examine >
Display Nextload. A pop–up message will show the value of the NextLoad.
From the BTS menu bar Device pull–down menus, select Download > ROM.
– If the file matching the Hardware Binary Type of the device is found in the code folder, a status
report shows the result of the download. Proceed to Step 11.
– If a file selection window appears, select the ROM code file manually.
Double–click on the version folder with the desired version number for the ROM code file (for
example 2.16.0.x).

Installation Procedure for
Expansion Compact BTS
without cCLPA
Follow the procedure in Table E-2 for installation of expansion Compact
BTS without cCLPAs. Table E-7 through Table E-9 (less the cCLPA) are
virtually the same and are can be used for the diagrams without cCLPA,
and so separate tables will not be included here.
Table E-10: Procedure for Installing Expansion Compact BTS without cCLPA
Step
Action
Follow the procedure in Chapter 4 for installing a Compact BTS in a rack.
For a 3 BTS expansion configuration, follow Figure E-7. Proceed to step 3.
