Introduction
Scope of This Document
This document provides information pertaining to the optimization and
audit tests of Motorola SC 4812ET Base Transceiver Subsystem (BTS)
equipment frames equipped with trunked high-power Linear Power
Amplifiers (LPAs) and their associated internal and external interfaces.
Also covered is software release 2.16.1.X and can support the following
versions of SC 4812ET BTS sites:
- 1X Packet Backhaul BTS
- 1X Circuit BTS
- 1X Packet backhaul BTS
The 1X packet BTS has a packet backhaul network interface which
provided via a pair of external routers together with a GLI upgrade
(GLI3) that can handle voice (IS-95A/B, 1X) and data (IS-95B, 1X).
This BTS equipment is configured with all 1X cards (BBX-1X
andMCC1X) or a mix of 1X cards and non-1X cards (BBX2 and
MCC8E/24E). This configuration is compliant with all applicable
cdma2000 1X specifications. It provides the forward link and reverse
link RF functions to support 2G features and 3G-1X features (i.e., high
capacity voice & high bit rate data).
The 1X circuit BTS has a split backhaul (circuit/packet pipe) network
interface that can handle circuit based voice (IS-95A/B, 1X) and data
(IS-95B) as well as packet based data (1X).
This document assumes the following prerequisites: The BTS frames
and cabling have been installed per the BTS Hardware Installation
Manual which covers the physical “bolt down” of all SC series
equipment frames, and the specific cabling configurations.

CDMA LMF Product Description
The Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA) LMF is a graphical user
interface (GUI) based LMF. This product is specifically designed to
provide cellular communications field personnel the vehicle to support
the following CDMA BTS operations:
Installation
Maintenance
Calibration
Optimization
The LMF also provides Command Line Interface (CLI) capability.
Activate the CLI by clicking on a shortcut icon on the desktop. The CLI
cannot be launched from the GUI, only from the desktop icon.
Online Help
Task oriented online help is available in the LMF by clicking on Help
from the menu bar.
Why Optimize?
Proper optimization and calibration assures:
Accurate downlink RF power levels are transmitted from the site.
Accurate uplink signal strength determinations are made by the site.
What Is Optimization?
Optimization compensates for the site-specific cabling and normal
equipment variations. Cables that interconnect the BTS and Duplexer
assemblies (if used), for example, are cut and installed at the time of the
BTS frame installation at the site. Site optimization guarantees that the
combined losses of the new cables and the gain/loss characteristics and
built-in tolerances of each BTS frame do not accumulate, causing
improper site operation.
Optimization identifies the accumulated loss (or gain) for all receive and
transmit paths at the BTS site, and stores that value in a database.
The RX path starts at the ancillary equipment frame RFDS RX
directional coupler antenna feedline port, through the RX input port

on the rear of the frame, through the DDRCs, Multicoupler Preselector
Card (MPC), and additional splitter circuitry, ending at a CDMA
Channel Processor (C-CCP) backplane Broad Band Transceiver
(BBX) slot in the C-CCP shelf.
A transmit path starts at the BBX, through the C-CCP backplane slot,
travels through the LPA/Combiner TX Filter and ends at the rear of
the input/output (I/O) Panel. If the RFDS option is added, then the
TX path continues and ends at the top of the RFDS TX directional
coupler antenna feedline port installed in the ancillary equipment
frame.

Introduction
68P09255A57-2
These values are factored in by the BTS equipment internally, leaving
only site specific antenna feed line loss and antenna gain characteristics
to be factored in by the CFE when determining site Effective Radiated
Power (ERP) output power requirements.
Each C-CCP shelf BBX board is optimized to a specific RX and TX
antenna port. (One BBX board acts in a redundant capacity for BBXs
1-12, and is optimized to all antenna ports). A single value is generated
for each path, thereby eliminating the accumulation of error that would
occur from individually measuring and summing the gain and loss of
each element in the path.
When to Optimize
New Installations
After the initial site installation, the BTS must be prepared for operation.
This preparation includes verifying hardware installation, initial power
up, and GPS verification. Basic alarm tests are also addressed.
A calibration audit of all RF transmit paths is performed to verify factory
calibration.
A series of ATP CDMA verification tests are covered using the actual
equipment set up. An ATP is also required before the site can be placed
in service.
Site Expansion
Optimization is also required after expansion of a site.
Periodic Optimization
Periodic optimization of a site may also be required, depending on the
requirements of the overall system.
Repaired Sites
Verify repair(s) made to the BTS by consulting an Optimization/ATP
Test Matrix table. This table outlines the specific tests that must be
performed anytime a BTS subassembly or RF cable associated with it is
replaced.

LMF Hardware Requirements
An LMF computer platform that meets the following requirements (or
better) is recommended:
Notebook computer
266 MHz (32-bit CPU) Pentium processor
4 GB internal hard disk drive
Color display with 1024 x 768 pixel resolution and capability to
display more than 256 colors
Memory requirements:
- Minimum required RAM: 96 MB
- Recommended RAM:
- 128 MB for Windows 98 SE
- 256 MB for Windows 2000
CD ROM drive and 3 1/2 inch floppy drive
56 kbps V.90Modem
Serial port (COM 1)
Parallel port (LPT 1)
PCMCIA Ethernet interface card (for example, 3COM Etherlink III)
with a 10Base-T-to-coax adapter
Windows 98SE operating system or Windows 2000 operating system
NOTE
If 800 x 600 pixel resolution is used, the LMF window must be
maximized after it is displayed.
Test Equipment Guidelines
To ensure consistent, reliable, and repeatable optimization test results,
test equipment meeting the following technical criteria should be used to
optimize the BTS equipment. You can, of course, substitute test
equipment with other test equipment models supported by the LMF
meeting the same technical specifications.
NOTE
During manual testing, you can substitute test equipment with
other test equipment models not supported by the LMF, but
those models must meet the same technical specifications.
The customer has the responsibility of accounting for any measurement
variances and/or additional losses/inaccuracies that can be introduced
as a result of these substitutions. Before beginning optimization or
troubleshooting, make sure that the test equipment needed is on hand
and operating properly.
Test Equipment Calibration
Optimum system performance and capacity depend on regular equipment
service, calibration, and characterization prior to BTS optimization.
Follow the original equipment manufacturer (OEM) recommended
maintenance and calibration schedules closely.

68P09255A57-2
Test Cable Calibration
Equipment test cables are very important in optimization. Motorola
recommends that the cable calibration be run at every BTS with the test
cables attached. This method compensates for test cable insertion loss
within the test equipment itself. No other allowance for test cable
insertion loss needs to be made during the performance of tests.
Another method is to account for the loss by entering it into the LMF
during the optimization procedure. This method requires accurate test
cable characterization in a shop. The cable should be tagged with the
characterization information prior to field optimization.
Equipment Warm-up
After arriving at the a site, the test equipment should be plugged in and
turned on to allow warm up and stabilization to occur for as long as
possible. The following pieces of test equipment must be warmed-up for
a minimum of 60 minutes prior to using for BTS optimization or RFDS
calibration procedures.

Prepower-up
This section first verifies proper frame equipage. This includes verifying
module placement, jumper, and dual in-line package (DIP) switch
settings against the site-specific documentation supplied for each BTS
application. Next, pre-power up and initial power-up procedures are
presented.
Cellsite Types
Sites are configured as with a maximum of 4 carriers, 3-sectored with a
maximum of 4 carriers, and 6-sectored with a maximum of 2 carriers.
Each type has unique characteristics and must be optimized accordingly.
CDF
The Cell-site Data File (CDF) contains site type and equipage data
information and passes it directly to the LMF during optimization. The
number of modem frames, C-CCP shelves, BBX and MCC boards (per
cage), and linear power amplifier assignments are some of the equipage
data included in the CDF.
Site Equipage Verification
Review the site documentation. Match the site engineering equipage data
to the actual boards and modules shipped to the site. Physically inspect
and verify the equipment provided for the BTS or Modem frame and
ancillary equipment frame.
CAUTION
Always wear a conductive, high impedance wrist strap while
handling any circuit card/module to prevent damage by ESD.
After removal, the card/module should be placed on a conductive
surface or back into the anti-static bag it was shipped in.
Initial Installation of Boards/Modules
Table 2-1: Initial Installation of Boards/Modules
Step
Action
Refer to the site documentation and install all boards and modules into the appropriate shelves as
required. Verify they are NOT SEATED at this time.
As the actual site hardware is installed, record the serial number of each module on a “Serial Number

Initial Inspection and Setup
CAUTION
Ensure all battery breakers for unused battery positions are open
(pulled out) during any part of the power up process, and remain
in the off position when leaving the site.
Table 2-2: Initial Inspection and Setup
Step
Action
Verify that ALL AC and DC breakers are turned OFF in both the Power and RF cabinets. Verify that
the DC power cables between the Power and RF cabinets are connected with the correct polarity
The RED cables connect to the uppermost three (3) terminals (marked +) in both cabinets. Confirm
that the split phase 240/120 AC supply is correctly connected to the AC load center input.
CAUTION
Failure to connect the proper AC feed will damage the surge
protection module inside the AC load center.
AC Power Check
The first task in the power up sequence is to apply AC power to the
Power cabinet. Once power is applied a series of AC Voltage
measurements is required.
Table 2-3: AC Voltage Measurements
Step
Action
Measure the AC voltages connected to the AC load center (access the terminals from the rear of the

power.
Table 2-4: Applying AC Power
Step
Action
When the input voltages are verified as correct, turn the Main AC breaker (located on the front of the
ACLC) ON. Observe that all eight (8) green LEDs on the front of the ACLC are illuminated (see
Figure 2-7).
Turn Rectifier 1 and Rectifier 2 AC branch breakers (on the AC Load Center) ON. All the installed
rectifier modules (see Figure 2-7) will start up and should each have two green LEDs (DC and Power)
illuminated.
Turn the Meter Alarm Panel module, ON (see Figure 2-3), while observing the K2 contact in the
PDA assembly (see Figure 2-9). The contact should close. The Meter Alarm Panel voltage meter
should read approximately 27.4 + 0.2 Vdc.
Turn the Temperature Compensation Panel (TCP) ON, (see Figure 2-4). Verify that the Meter Alarm
Control Panel does not have any alarm LEDs illuminated.
Check the rectifier current bargraph displays (green LED display on the rectifier module). None

Action
Probe the output voltage test point on the Meter Alarm Panel while pressing the 25° C set button on
the TCP (see Figure 2-4). The voltage should read 27.4 + 0.2 Vdc. Adjust Master Voltage on Meter
Alarm Panel if necessary. Release the TCP 25° C set button.
Depending on the ambient temperature, the voltage reading may now change by up to + 1.5 V
compared to the reading just measured. If it is cooler than 25C, the voltage will be higher, and if it is
warmer than 25C, the voltage will be lower.
Ensure the RF cabinet 400A main DC breaker is OFF.
Close the three (3) Main DC breakers on the Power Cabinet ONLY. Close by holding in the reset
button on the front of the PDA, and engaging one breaker at a time.
Measure the voltage between the + and - terminals at the rear of the Power Cabinet and the RF

DC Power Checks
Before applying any power to the BTS cabinet, verify there are no shorts
in the RF or power DC distribution system (see Figure 2-5).
Table 2-6: DC Power Pre-test (BTS Frame)
Step
Action
Physically verify that all AC rectifiers supplying power to the RF cabinets are OFF or disabled (see
Figure 2-5). There should be no 27 Vdc on DC feed terminals.
On each RF cabinet:
Unseat all circuit boards/ modules in the distribution shelf, transceiver shelf, and Single Carrier
Linear Power Amplifier (SCLPA) shelves, but leave them in their associated slots.
Unseat all circuit boards (except CCD and CIO cards) in the C-CCP shelf and LPA shelves, but
leave them in their associated slots.
Set C-CCP shelf breakers to the OFF position by pulling out power distribution breakers (labeled
C-CCP 1, 2, 3 - located on the power distribution panel).
Set LPA breakers to the OFF position by pulling out power distribution breakers (8 breakers,
labeled 1A-1B through 4C-4D - located on the power distribution panel).
Verify that the resistance from the power (+) feed terminals with respect to the ground terminal on the
cabinet measures > 500 Ω (see Figure 2-5).
If reading is < 500 Ω, a short may exist somewhere in the DC distribution path supplied by the
breaker. Isolate the problem before proceeding. A reading > 3 MΩ could indicate an open (or
missing) bleeder resistor (installed across the filter capacitors behind the breaker panel).
Set the 400 Amp Main Breaker and the C-CCP breakers (C-CCP 1, 2, 3) to the ON position by
pushing them IN one at a time. Repeat step 3 after turning on each breaker.
* IMPORTANT
If, after inserting any board/module, the ohmmeter stays at 0 Ω, a short probably exists in that
board/module. Replace the suspect board/module and repeat the test. If test still fails, isolate the
problem before proceeding.
Insert and lock the DC/DC converter modules into their associated slots one at a time. Repeat step3
after inserting each module.
A typical response is that the ohmmeter will steadily climb in resistance as capacitors charge, finally
indicating approximately 500 Ω.
! CAUTION
Verify the correct power/converter modules by observing the locking/retracting tabs appear as follows:
Insert and lock all remaining circuit boards and modules into their associated slots in the C-CCP shelf.
Repeat step 3 after inserting and locking each board or module.
A typical response is that the ohmmeter will steadily climb in resistance as capacitors charge,
stopping at approximately 500 Ω..

Step
Action
Ensure the 400 Amp Main DC breaker and all other breakers in the RF Cabinet are OFF.
Proceed to the DC Power Pre-test (BTS Frame) sequence (see Table 2-6) (for initial power-up as
required).
Ensure the power cabinet is turned on (see Table 2-5). Verify that 27 volts is applied to the terminals
on the back of the RF cabinet.
Engage the main DC circuit breaker on the RF cabinet (see Figure 2-5).
On each RF cabinet:
Set C-CCP shelf breakers to the ON position by pushing them in one at a time (labeled
C-CCP 1, 2, 3 - located on the power distribution panel).
Set LPA breakers to the ON position by pushing them in one at a time (8 breakers, labeled 1A-1B
through 4C-4D - located on the power distribution panel).
Set the two heat exchanger breakers to the ON position by pushing them in one at a time.
Set the ETIB breaker to the ON position by pushing it in.
Set the OPTION breaker to the ON position by pushing it in.
Measure the voltage drop between the Power Cabinet meter test point and the 27 V buss bar inside the
RF Cabinet PDA while the RF Cabinet is transmitting.
NOTE
For a 3-sector carrier system, the voltage drop should be less than 0.2 V.
For a 12-sector carrier system, the voltage drop should be less than 0.3 V.
Aug 2002
Using a DC current probe, measure the current in each of the six (6) DC cables that are connected
between the RF and Power Cabinet. The DC current measured should be approximately the same. If
there is a wide variation between one cable and the others (>20 A), check the tightness of the
connections (torque settings) at each end of the cable.

Battery Test
Charge Test (Connected Batteries)
Table 2-8 lists the step-by-step instructions for testing the batteries.
Table 2-8: Battery Charge Test (Connected Batteries)
Step
Action
Close the battery compartment breakers for connected batteries ONLY. This process should be
completed quickly to avoid individual battery strings with excess charge current
NOTE
If the batteries are sufficiently discharged, the battery circuit breakers may not engage individually
due to the surge current. If this condition is observed, turn off the Meter Alarm Panel power switch,
and then engage all the connected battery circuit breakers, the Meter Alarm Panel power switch
should then be turned ON.
Using the DC current probe, measure the current in each of the battery string connections to the buss
bars in each battery cabinet. The charge current may initially be high but should quickly reduce in a
few minutes if the batteries have a typical new battery charge level.
The current in each string should be approximately equal (+ 5 A).
The bargraph meters on the rectifier modules can be used as a rough estimate of the total battery
charge current. Each rectifier module has eight LEDs to represent the output current. Each illuminated
LED indicates that approximately 12.5% (1/8 or 8.75 A) of the rectifier’s maximum (70 A) current is
flowing.
EXAMPLE:
Question: A system fitted with three rectifier modules each have three bargraph LEDs illuminated.
What is the total output current into the batteries?
Answer: Each bargraph is approximately indicating 12.5% of 70 A, therefore, 3 X 8.75A equals
26.25A. As there are three rectifiers, the total charge current is equal to (3 X 26.25 A) 78.75 A.
This charge current calculation only applies at this part of the start up procedure when the RF Cabinet
is not powered on, and the power cabinet heat exchanger is turned off.
Allow a few minutes to ensure that the battery charge current stabilizes before taking any further
action. Recheck the battery current in each string. If the batteries had a reasonable charge, the current
in each string should reduce to less than 5 A.
Recheck the DC output voltage. It should remain the same as measured in step 4 of the Power Up
Test.
NOTE
If discharged batteries are installed, all bargraphs may be illuminated on the rectifiers during the
charge test. This indicates that the rectifiers are at full capacity and are rapidly charging the batteries.
It is recommended in this case that the batteries are allowed to charge and stabilize as in the above
step before commissioning the site. This could take several hours.

Basic Optimization
Introduction
This chapter provides procedures for downloading system operating
software, set up of the supported test equipment, CSM reference
verification/optimization, and transmit/receive path verification.
NOTE
Before using the LMF, use an editor to view the ”CAVEATS”
section in the ”readme.txt” file in the c:\wlmf folder for any
applicable information.
Optimization Process
After a BTS is physically installed and the preliminary operations
(power up) have been completed, the CDMA LMF is used to calibrate
and optimize the BTS. The basic optimization process can be
accomplished as follows:
Download MGLI with code and data and then enable MGLI.
NOTE
The GLIs may be GLI2s or GLI3s
Use the status function and verify that all of the installed devices of
the following types respond with status information: CSM, BBX,
GLI3, and MCC (and TSU if RFDS is installed). If a device is
installed and powered up but is not responding and is colored gray in
the BTS display, the device is not listed in the CDF file. The CDF file
will have to be corrected before the device can be accessed by CDMA
LMF.
Download code and data to all devices of the following types:
- CSM
- BBX (may be BBX2 or BBX-1X)
- GLI3 (other than GLI3-1)
- MCC (may be MCC-8E, MCC24, or MCC-1X)
Download the RFDS TSIC (if installed).
Verify the operation of the GPS and HSO or LFR signals.
Enable the following devices (in the order listed):
- Secondary CSM (slot 2)
- Primary CSM (slot 1)
- All MCCs
Connect the required test equipment for a full optimization.
Select the test equipment.
Calibrate the TX and RX test cables if they have not previously been
calibrated using the CDMA LMF that is going to be used for the
optimization/calibration. The cable calibration values can also be
entered manually.
Select all of the BBXs and all of the MCCs and use the full
optimization function. The full optimization function performs TX
calibration, BLO download, TX audit, all TX tests, and all RX tests
for all selected devices.

Basic Optimization
68P09255A57-2
If the TX calibration fails, repeat the full optimization for any failed
paths.
If the TX calibration fails again, correct the problem that caused the
failure and repeat the full optimization for the failed path.
If the TX calibration and audit portion of the full optimization passes
for a path but some of the TX or RX tests fail, correct the problem that
caused the failure and run the individual tests as required until all TX
and RX tests have passed for all paths.
Cell-site Types
Sites are configured as Omni/Omni or Sector/Sector (TX/RX). Each type
has unique characteristics and must be optimized accordingly.
NOTE
For more information on the different in site types, please refer
to the applicable BTS/Modem Frame Hardware Installation and
Functional Hardware Description manuals.
Cell-site Data File
The Cell-Site Data File (CDF) contains information that defines the
BTS and data used to download files to the devices. A CDF file must be
placed in the applicable BTS folder before the LMF can be used to log
into that BTS. CDF files are normally obtained from the CBSC using a
floppy disk. A file transfer protocol (ftp) method can be used if the LMF
computer has the cabability.
The CDF includes the following information:
Download instructions and protocol
Site specific equipage information
C-CCP shelf allocation plan
- BBX equipage (based on cell-site type) including redundancy
- CSM equipage including redundancy
- MCC (MCC24E, MCC8E or MCC-1X) channel element allocation
plan. This plan indicates how the C-CCP shelf is configured, and
how the paging, synchronization, traffic, and access channel
elements (and associated gain values) are assigned among the (up to
12) MCCs in the shelf.
CSM equipage including redundancy
Effective Rated Power (ERP) table for all TX channels to antennas
respectively. Motorola System Engineering specifies the ERP of a
transmit antenna based on site geography, antenna placement, and
government regulations. Working from this ERP requirement, the
antenna gain, (dependent on the units of measurement specified) and
antenna feed line loss can be combined to determine the required
power at the top of the BTS frame. The corresponding BBX output
level required to achieve that power level on any channel/sector can
also be determined.
NOTE
Aug 2002
Refer to the CDMA LMF Operator’s Guide for additional
information on the layout of the LMF directory structure
(including CDF file locations and formats).

BTS System Software Download
BTS system software must be successfully downloaded to the BTS
processor boards before optimization can be performed. BTS operating
code is loaded from the LMF computer terminal.
Circuit Backhaul BTS
The information below is for Circuit-Backhaul BTS. GLI-3’s
configured for Circuit-backhaul use bts.cdf files.
NOTE
Before using the LMF for optimization/ATP, the correct
bts-#.cdf and cbsc-#.cdf files for the BTS must be obtained
from the CBSC and put in a bts-# folder in the LMF. Failure to
use the correct CDF files can cause wrong results.
CAUTION
Failure to use the correct CDF files to log into a live (traffic
carrying) site can shut down the site.
Packet-Backhaul BTS
GLI-3’s are configured for Packet-backhaul BTS’s the file that is needed
to login to the BTS is the NECF file (bts-xxx.xml) located on the
OMC/R.
The CDF is normally obtained from the CBSC on a DOS formatted
diskette, or through a file transfer protocol (ftp) if the LMF computer has
ftp capability. Refer to the CDMA LMF Operator’s Guide, or the LMF
Help screen, for more information.
Site Equipage Verification
If you have not already done so, use an editor to view the CDF, and
review the site documentation. Verify the site engineering equipage data
in the CDF to the actual site hardware.
CAUTION
Always wear a conductive, high impedance wrist strap while
handling any circuit card/module to prevent damage by ESD.
Extreme care should be taken during the removal and installation
of any card/module. After removal, the card/module should be
placed on a conductive surface or back into the anti-static bag in
which it was shipped.
Isolate BTS from T1/E1 Spans
NOTE
At active sites, the OMC/CBSC must disable the BTS and place
it out of service (OOS). DO NOT remove the span surge
protectors until the OMC/CBSC has disabled the BTS.
Each frame is equipped with one 50-pair punch block for spans,
customer alarms, remote GPS, and power cabinet alarms. See Figure 3-2
and refer to Table 3-1 for the physical location and pin call-out
information. To disable the span, pull the surge protectors for the
respective span.
Before connecting the LMF to the frame LAN, the OMC/CBSC must
disable the BTS and place it OOS to allow the LMF to control the
CDMA BTS. This prevents the CBSC from inadvertently sending
control information to the CDMA BTS during LMF based tests.

Configure Channel Service Unit
The M-PATH 537 Channel Service Unit (CSU) provides in-band
SNMP-managed digital service access to T1 and fractional T1 lines.
M-PATH units plug into the Kentrox 2-slot frame (see Figure 3-1).
Remote M-PATH management is available via SNMP over an in-band
data link on the T1 line (using a facility data link or 8-64 kbps of a DS0
channel). The unit at the near end of the management path can be an
SNMP manager or another M-PATH CSU.
Each 19 inch rack can support two CSU M-PATH 537 modules. Each
M-PATH 537 module supports one and only one span connection.
Programming of the M-PATH is accomplished through the DCE 9-pin
connector on the front panel of the CSU shelf. Manuals and a Microsoft
Windows programming disk is supplied with each unit.
Setting the Control Port
Whichever control port is chosen, it must first be set up so the control
port switches match the communication parameters being used by the
control device. If using the rear-panel DTE control port, set the
shelf-address switch SA5 to “up” (leave the switch down for the
rear-panel DCE control port).
For more information, refer to the vendor user manual (part number
1174139) and installation manual (part number 1174462) provided with
each CSU.
Plug one of the cables listed below into the Control Port connectors:
Part Number
Description of Cable
01-95006-022 (six feet)
DB-9S to DB-9P
01-95010-022 (ten feet)
The control port cables can be used to connect the shelf to:
A PC using the AT 9-pin interface
A modem using the 9-pin connector
Other shelves in a daisy chain

SC4812ET Span Line Labeling for Span B and Span C is
swapped
-On the SC4812ET’s, the span cable internal to the base station
that connects the 50 pin header on the I/O plate to the CSU has
Span B and Span C (RJ-45) connectors mis-labeled.
-CFE will punch down the span on the 50 pair bunchblock as per
Motorola documentation and punchdown chart. When conecting
the span input to the CSU re-label “Span B” cable to”Span C”
cable to “Span B”. Connect to CSU as per documentation
Note: The labeling issue on the cable from the I/O plate to the
CSU Part Number 3086601H01 Rev C shall be corrected on
revision “D” to address this issue. The cut over date to Rev. D
will be approximately January 30, 2001.

Preparing the LMF
Before optimization can be performed, the LMF application software
must be installed and configured on a computer platform meeting
Motorola-specified requirements (see Recommended Test Equipment
and Software in Chapter 1).
NOTE
For the LMF graphics to display properly, the computer platform
must be configured to display more than 256 colors. See the
operating system software instructions for verifying and
configuring the display settings.
Software and files for installing and updating the LMF are provided on
CD ROM disks. The following items must be available:
LMF Program on CD ROM
CDF for each supported BTS (on diskette or available from the
CBSC)
CBSC File for each supported BTS (on diskette or available from the

- Install LMF Software (Third)
- Install BTS Binaries (Fourth)
- Install/Create BTS Folders (Fifth)
Any time you install U/WIN, you must install the LMF software because the installation of the LMF
modifies some of the files that are installed during the U/Win installation. Installing U/Win
over-writes these modifications.
NOTE
There are multiple binary image packages for installation on the CD-ROM. When prompted, choose
the load that corresponds to the switch release that you currently have installed. Perform the Device
Images install after the WinLMF installation.
If applicable, a separate CD ROM of BTS Binaries may be available for binary updates.
CDMA LMF Home Directory
The CDMA LMF installation program creates the default home directory
c:\wlmf, and installs the application files and subdirectories (folders)
in it. Because this can be changed at installation, the CDMA LMF home
directory will be referred to with the generic convention of:
:\
Where:
= the LMF computer drive letter where the CDMA LMF home
directory is located.
= the directory path or name where the CDMA
LMF is installed
NOTE
The CDMA LMF installation program creates the default home
directory c:\wlmf when the CDMA LMF is installed.
Copy CBSC CDF Files to the LMF Computer
Before logging on to a BTS with the LMF to execute optimization/ATP
procedures, the correct bts-#.cdf and cbsc-#.cdf files must be obtained
from the CBSC and put in a bts-# folder in the LMF computer. This
requires creating versions of the CBSC CDF files on a DOS-formatted
floppy diskette and using the diskette to install the CDF files on the
LMF computer.

- The generic cbsc-1.cdf file supplied with the LMF will work
with locally numbered BTS CDF files. Using this file will not
provide a valid optimization unless the generic file is edited to
replace default parameters (e.g., channel numbers) with the
operational parameters used locally.
The procedure in Table 3-4 lists the steps required to transfer the CDF
files from the CBSC to the LMF computer. For any further information,
refer to the CDMA LMF Operator’s Guide (Motorola part number
68P64114A21) or the LMF Help screen..
Table 3-4: Copying CBSC CDF Files to the LMF
Step
Action
Login to the CBSC workstation.
Insert a DOS-formatted floppy diskette in the workstation drive.
Type eject -q and press .
Type mount and press .
NOTE
Look for the “floppy/no_name” message on the last line displayed.
If the eject command was previously entered, floppy/no_name will be appended with a number. Use
the explicit floppy/no_name reference displayed when performing step 7.
Change to the directory, where the files to be copied reside, by typing cd
(e.g., cd bts-248) and pressing .
Type ls and press the Enter key to display the list of files in the directory.
With Solaris versions of Unix, create DOS-formatted versions of the bts-#.cdf and cbsc-#.cdf files
on the diskette by entering the following command:
unix2dos /floppy/no_name/
(e.g., unix2dos bts-248.cdf /floppy/no_name/bts-248.cdf).
NOTE
Other versions of Unix do not support the unix2dos and dos2unix commands. In these cases, use the
Unix cp (copy) command. The copied files will be difficult to read with a DOS or Windows text
editor because Unix files do not contain line feed characters. Editing copied CDF files on the LMF
computer is, therefore, not recommended.
Using cp, multiple files can be copied in one operation by separating each filename to be copied
with a space and ensuring the destination directory (floppy/no_name) is listed at the end of the
command string following a space (e.g., cp bts-248.cdf cbsc-6.cdf /floppy/na_name)
Repeat steps 5 through 7 for each bts-# that must be supported by the LMF.

Creating a Named HyperTerminal Connection for MMI Connection
Confirming or changing the configuration data of certain BTS FRUs
requires establishing an MMI communication session between the LMF
and the FRU. Using features of the Windows operating system, the
connection properties for an MMI session can be saved on the LMF
computer as a named Windows HyperTerminal connection. This
eliminates the need for setting up connection parameters each time an
MMI session is required to support optimization.
Once the named connection is saved, a shortcut for it can be created on
the Windows desktop. Double clicking the shortcut icon will start the
connection without the need to negotiate multiple menu levels.
Follow the procedures in Table 3-5 to establish a named HyperTerminal
connection and create a Windows desktop shortcut for it.
NOTE
There are differences between Windows NT and Windows 98 in
the menus and screens for creating a HyperTerminal connection.
In the following procedure, items applicable to:

Pinging the Processors
For proper operation, the integrity of the Ethernet LAN A and B links
must be be verified. Figure 3-5 represents a typical BTS Ethernet
configuration. The drawing depicts one (of two identical) links, A and B.
Ping is a program that sends request packets to the LAN network
modules to get a response from the specified “target” module.
NOTE
WinLMF (unreleased version 2.16.1.0.15 for example) has an
option in the LOGIN menu to ping the GLI prior to login.
Follow the steps in Table 3-7 to ping each processor (on both LAN A
and LAN B) and verify LAN redundancy is working properly.
CAUTION
Always wear a conductive, high impedance wrist strap while
handling any circuit card/module to prevent damage by ESD.

NOTE
For more information on file management, creating bts directories, viewing/editing CDF files, refer
to LMF Users Guide.
Determine the CDF file, currently loaded on the LMF, is closest to the configuration at the site. Use a
generic CDF file that equips all devices, if possible. If this is an OMNI site, use an OMNI CDF file,

! CAUTION
If you are not familiar with the UNIX vi editor, create a “dummy” CDF file, and practice making
changes to it, prior to altering the “real” one.
* IMPORTANT
CDF files obtained from the OMCR/CBSC are modified by DELTA information being appended to
the end of the CDF file. The information in the DELTA fields take precedence over information in the
“core CDF file” For example: If NextLoad=‘‘1.2.3.4.5” for BBX 1 was specified in the CDF file, and
there was a DELTA entry specifying NextLoad=‘‘2.3.4.5.6” appended to the CDF file for the same
BBX, 2.3.4.5.6 would be the version used.
There are two ways resolve this. Edit both the DELTA and “core” areas of the file to reflect the same
version, or make sure the delta information is transferred to the main CDF file and delete all DELTA
CDF file entries.
Globally change the device load version number in the new CDF file using the following UNIX
commands:
vi bts-new_.cdf
:1,$ s/x.x.x.x.x/y.y.y.y.y
Where: x.x.x.x.x and y.y.y.y.y represent the old and new version number, respectively.
:wq
NOTE
You should now be able to download all devices at the BTS with the current device load version.
Verify the SiteType and SSType entries in the CDF file (under the BTS subheading) reflect the
following information. See example of applicable fields of CDF file below.

Operating the LMF
Basic Operation
NOTE
The terms “CDMA LMF” and “WinLMF” are interchangeable
The CDMA LMF allows the user to work in the two following operating
environments which are accessed using the specified desktop icon:
Graphical User Interface (GUI) using the WinLMF icon
Command Line Interface (CLI) using the WinLMF CLI icon
The GUI is the primary optimization and acceptance testing operating
environment. The CLI environment provides additional capability to the
user to perform manually controlled acceptance tests and audit the
results of optimization and calibration actions.
Basic operation of the LMF GUI includes the following:
Selecting and deselecting BTS devices
Enabling devices
Disabling devices
Resetting devices
Obtaining device status
Sorting a status report window
For detailed information on performing these and other LMF operations,
refer to the CDMA LMF Operator’s Guide, 68P64114A78.
Both the GUI and the CLI use a program known as the handler. Only one
handler can be running at one time. The architectural design is such that
the GUI must be started before the CLI if you want the GUI and CLI to
use the same handler.
When the CLI is launched after the GUI, the CLI automatically finds and
uses an in-progress login session with a BTS initiated under the GUI.
This allows the use of the GUI and the CLI in the same BTS login
session.
If a CLI handler is already running when the GUI is launched (this
happens if the CLI window is already running when the user starts the
GUI, or if another copy of the GUI is already running when the user
starts the GUI), a dialog window displays the following warning
message:
The CLI handler is already running.
This may cause conflicts with the LMF.
Are you sure that you want to start the application?
This window also contains yes and no buttons. Selecting yes starts the

Logging into a BTS
NOTE
Be sure that the correct bts-#.cdf and cbsc-#.cdf file is used for
the BTS. These should be the CDF files that are provided for the
BTS by the CBSC. Failure to use the correct CDF files can
result in wrong results. Failure to use the correct CDF files to
log into a live (traffic carrying) site can shut down the site.
Logging into a BTS establishes a communications link between the BTS
and the CDMA LMF. You may be logged into one or more BTS’s at a
time, but only one LMF may be logged into each BTS.
Before attempting to log into the BTS, confirm the CDMA LMF is
properly connected to the BTS (see Figure 3-4). Follow the procedure in
Table 3-14 to log into a BTS.
Prerequisites
Before attempting to login to a BTS, ensure the following have been
completed:
The LMF is correctly installed and prepared.
A bts-nnn folder with the correct CDF and CBSC file exists.
The LMF is correctly installed and prepared, and the LMF computer
was connected to the BTS before starting the Windows operating
system and LMF software. If necessary, restart the computer after
connecting it to the BTS (see Table 3-6 and Figure 3-4).

compatible with the ROM code with which they are loaded. Before
downloading RAM code and data to the processor cards, follow the
procedure in Table 3-19 to verify the GLI devices are loaded with the
correct ROM code for the software release used by the BSS.
Prerequisite
Identify the correct GLI ROM code load for the software release being
used on the BSS by referring to the Version Matrix section of the
SC CDMA Release Notes (supplied on the tape or CD-ROM
containing the BSS software).
Table 3-19: Verify GLI ROM Code Loads

Enable CSMs
Each BTS CSM system features two CSM boards per site. In a typical
operation, the primary CSM locks its Digital Phase Locked Loop
(DPLL) circuits to GPS signals. These signals are generated by either an
on-board GPS module (RF-GPS) or a remote GPS receiver (R-GPS).
The CSM2 card is required when using the R-GPS. The GPS receiver
(mounted on CSM 1) is used as the primary timing reference and
synchronizes the entire cellular system. CSM 2 provides redundancy (but
does not have a GPS receiver).
The BTS may be equipped with a LORAN-C LFR, HSO, or external 10
MHz Rubidium source which the CSM can use as a secondary timing
reference. The HSOX is used for expansion frames. In all cases, the
CSM monitors and determines what reference to use at a given time.

CSM 1 houses the GPS receiver. The enable sequence can take up to one hour (see below).
* IMPORTANT
The GPS satellite system satellites are not in a geosynchronous orbit and are maintained and operated
by the United States Department of Defense (D.O.D.). The D.O.D. periodically alters satellite orbits;
therefore, satellite trajectories are subject to change. A GPS receiver that is INS contains an “almanac”
that is updated periodically to take these changes into account.
If a GPS receiver has not been updated for a number of weeks, it may take up to an hour for the GPS
receiver “almanac” to be updated.
Once updated, the GPS receiver must track at least four satellites and obtain (hold) a 3-D position fix
for a minimum of 45 seconds before the CSM will come in service. (In some cases, the GPS receiver
needs to track only one satellite, depending on accuracy mode set during the data load).
NOTE
If equipped with two CSMs, CSM-1 should be bright green (INS-ACT) and CSM-2 should be dark
green (INS-STY)
If more than an hour has passed, refer to CSM Verification, see Figure 3-7 and Table 3-26 to determine
the cause.
NOTE
After the CSMs have been successfully enabled, observe the PWR/ALM LEDs are steady green
(alternating green/red indicates the card is in an alarm state).
Enable MCCs
This procedure configures the MCC and sets the “TX fine adjust”
parameter. The “TX fine adjust” parameter is not a transmit gain setting,
but a timing adjustment that compensates for the processing delay in the
BTS (approximately 3 mS).

Clock Synchronization Manager System Time
The primary function of the Clock Synchronization Manager (CSM)
boards (slots 1 and 2) is to maintain CDMA system time. The CSM in
slot 1 is the primary timing source while slot 2 provides redundancy.
The CSM2 card (CSM second generation) is required when using the
remote GPS receiver (R-GPS). R-GPS uses a GPS receiver in the
antenna head that has a digital output to the CSM2 card. CSM2 can have
a daughter card as a local GPS receiver to support an RF-GPS signal.
The CSM2 switches between the primary and redundant units (slots 1
and 2) upon failure or command. CDMA Clock Distribution Cards
(CCDs) buffer and distribute even-second reference and 19.6608 MHz
clocks. CCD 1 is married to CSM 1 and CCD 2 is married to CSM 2. A
failure on CSM 1 or CCD 1 cause the system to switch to redundant
CSM 2 and CCD 2.
Each CSM2 board features an ovenized, crystal oscillator that provides
19.6608 MHz clock, even second pulse, and 3 MHz referenced to the
selected synchronization source (see Table 3-26):
GPS: local/RF-GPS or remote/R-GPS
LORAN-C Frequency Receiver (LFR) or High Stability Oscillator
(HSO)
External reference oscillator sources
Fault management has the capability of switching between the GPS
synchronization source and the LFR/HSO backup source in the event of
a GPS receiver failure on CSM 1. During normal operation, the CSM 1
board selects GPS as the primary source (see Table 3-26). The source
selection can also be overridden via the LMF or by the system software.
Synchronization between the primary and redundant CSM CCD pairs, as
well as the LFR or HSO back-up to GPS synchronization, increases
reliability.
LFR/HSO
The CSM handles the overall configuration and status monitoring
functions of the LFR/HSO. In the event of GPS failure, the LFR/HSO is
capable of maintaining synchronization initially established by the GPS
reference signal.

SC4812ET Optimization/ATP Manual Software Release R16.1.x.x
PRELIMINARY

System Tests
68P09255A57-2
The LFR requires an active external antenna to receive LORAN RF
signals. Timing pulses are derived from this signal, which is
synchronized to Universal Time Coordinates (UTC) and GPS time. The
LFR can maintain system time indefinately after initial GPS lock.
The HSO is a high stability 10 MHz oscillator with the necessary
interface to the CSMs. The HSO is typically installed in those
geographical areas not covered by the LORAN-C system. Since the
HSO is a free-standing oscillator, system time can only be maintained
for 24 hours after 24 hours of GPS lock.
Upgrades and Expansions: LFR2/HSO2/HSOX
LFR2/HSO2 (second generation cards) both export a timing signal to the
expansion frames. The associated expansion frames require an
HSO-expansion (HSOX) whether the starter frame has an LFR2 or an
HSO2. The HSOX accepts input from the starter frame and interfaces
with the CSM cards in the expansion frame. LFR and LFR2 use the
same source code in source selection (see Table 3-26). HSO, HSO2, and
HSOX use the same source code in source selection (see Table 3-26).
NOTE
Allow the base site and test equipment to warm up for 60
minutes after any interruption in oscillator power. CSM board
warm-up allows the oscillator oven temperature and oscillator
frequency to stabilize prior to test. Test equipment warm-up
allows the Rubidium standard timebase to stabilize in frequency
before any measurements are made.

The objective of this procedure is the initial verification of the CSM
boards before performing the RF path verification tests. Parts of this
procedure will be repeated for final verification after the overall
optimization has been completed.

HSO information (underlined text above, verified from left to right) is usually the #1 reference source.
If this is not the case, have the OMCR determine the correct BTS timing source has been identified in
the database by entering the display bts csmgen command and correct as required using the edit
csm csmgen refsrc command.
* IMPORTANT
If any of the above mentioned areas fail, verify:
- If LED is RED, verify that HSO had been powered up for at least 5 minutes. After oscillator
temperature is stable, LED should go GREEN Wait for this to occur before continuing !
- If “timed out” is displayed in the Last Phase column, suspect the HSO output buffer or oscillator
is defective
- Verify the HSO is FULLY SEATED and LOCKED to prevent any possible board warpage

Equipment Warm-up
NOTE
Warm-up BTS equipment for a minimum of 60 minutes prior to
performing the BTS optimization procedure. This assures BTS
stability and contributes to optimization accuracy.
- Time spent running initial or normal power-up,
hardware/firmware audit, and BTS download counts as
warm-up time.
WARNING
Before installing any test equipment directly to any BTS TX
OUT connector, verify there are no CDMA channels keyed.
- At active sites, have the OMC-R/CBSC place the antenna
(sector) assigned to the BBX under test OOS. Failure to do
so can result in serious personal injury and/or equipment
damage.

Loss/Gain Offset
68P09255A57-2
Loss/Gain Offset
Background
Proper test equipment setup ensures that the test equipment and
associated test cables do not introduce measurement errors, and that
measurements are correct.
NOTE
If the test set being used to interface with the BTS has been
calibrated and maintained as a set, this procedure does not need
to be performed. (Test Set includes LMF terminal,
communications test set, additional test equipment, associated
test cables, and adapters.)
This procedure must be performed prior to beginning the optimization.
Verify all test equipment (including all associated test cables and
adapters actually used to interface all test equipment and the BTS) has
been calibrated and maintained as a set.
CAUTION
If any piece of test equipment, test cable, or RF adapter, that
makes up the calibrated test equipment set, has been replaced,
re-calibration must be performed. Failure to do so can 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.
Purpose
These procedures access the CDMA LMF automated calibration routine
used to determine the path losses of the supported communications
analyzer, power meter, associated test cables, and (if used) antenna
switch that make up the overall calibrated test set. After calibration, the
gain/loss offset values are stored in a test measurement offset file on the
CDMA LMF.
GPIB Addresses
GPIB addresses can range from 1 through 30. The LMF will accept any
address in that range, but the numbers entered in the LMF Options
window GPIB address box must match the addresses of the test
equipment. Motorola recommends using 1 for a CDMA signal generator,
13 for a power meter, and 18 for a communications system analyzer. To
verify and, if necessary, change the GPIB addresses of the test
equipment, refer to the Setting GPIB Addresses section of Appendix F.
Selecting Test Equipment
Use LMF Options from the Options menu list to select test equipment
automatically (using the autodetect feature) or manually.

Prerequisites
A Serial Connection and a Network Connection tab are provided for
test equipment selection. The Serial Connection tab is used when the
test equipment items are connected directly to the CDMA LMF
computer via a GPIB box (normal setup). The Network Connection tab
is used when the test equipment is to be connected remotely via a
network connection.
Ensure the following has been completed before selecting test
equipment:
Test equipment is correctly connected and turned on.
CDMA LMF computer serial port and test equipment are connected to
the GPIB box.
Manually Selecting Test Equipment in a Serial Connection Tab
Test equipment can be manually specified before, or after, the test
equipment is connected. CDMA LMF does not check to see if the test
equipment is actually detected for manual specification.
Table 3-30: Selecting Test Equipment Manually in a Serial Connection Tab
Step
Action
From the Tools menu, select Options.

Calibrating Cables
The cable calibration function is used to measure the loss (in dB) for the
TX and RX cables that are to be used for testing. A CDMA analyzer is
used to measure the loss of each cable configuration (TX cable
configuration and RX cable configuration). The cable calibration
consists of the following procedures.
Measure the loss of a short cable. This is done to compensate for any
measurement error of the analyzer. The short cable, which is used only
for the calibration process, is used in series with both the TX and RX
cable configuration when they are measured. The measured loss of the
short cable is deducted from the measured loss of the TX and RX
cable configuration to determine the actual loss of the TX and RX
cable configurations. This deduction is done so any error in the
analyzer measurement will be adjusted out of both the TX and RX
measurements.
Measure the short cable plus the RX cable configuration loss. The RX
cable configuration normally consists only of a coax cable with
type-N connectors that is long enough to reach from the BTS RX port
the test equipment.
Measure the short cable plus the TX cable configuration loss is
measured. The TX cable configuration normally consists of two coax
cables with type-N connectors and a directional coupler, a load, and
an additional attenuator if required by the BTS type. The total loss of
the path loss of the TX cable configuration must be as required for the
BTS (normally 30 or 50 dB). The Motorola Cybertest analyzer is
different in that the required attenuation/load is built into the test set
so the TX cable configuration consists only of the required length
coax cable.
Calibrating Cables with a CDMA Analyzer
The Cable Calibration menu item from the Util menu list is used to
calibrate both TX and RX test cables for use with CDMA LMF.
NOTE
LMF cable calibration cannot be accomplished with an
HP8921A analyzer for 1.9 MHz. A different analyzer type or the
signal generator and spectrum analyzer method must be used
(refer to Table 3-34 and Table 3-35). Cable calibration values
must be manually entered if the signal generator and spectrum
analyzer method is used. For the HP8921A, refer to Appendix F.
The test equipment must be selected before this procedure can be started.
Follow the procedure in Table 3-33 to calibrate the cables.

Introduction
Calibration compensates for normal equipment variations within the
BTS and assures maximum measurement accuracy.
RF Path Bay Level Offset Calibration
Calibration identifies the accumulated gain in every transmit path (BBX
slot) at the BTS site and stores that value in the CAL file. The BLOs are
subsequently downloaded to each BBX.
Each receive path starts at a BTS RX antenna port and terminates at a
backplane BBX slot. Each transmit path starts at a BBX backplane slot,
travels through the LPA, and terminates at a BTS TX antenna port.
Calibration identifies the accumulated gain in every transmit path (BBX
slot) at the BTS site and stores that value in the CAL file. Each transmit
path starts at a C-CCP shelf backplane BBX slot, travels through the
LPA, and ends at a BTS TX antenna port. When the TX path calibration
is performed, the RX path BLO will automatically be set to the default
value.
When to Calibrate BLOs
Calibration of BLOs is required after initial BTS installation.
The BLO data of an operational BTS site must be re-calibrated once
each year. Motorola recommends re-calibrating the BLO data for all
associated RF paths after replacing any of the following components or
associated interconnecting RF cabling:
BBX board
C-CCP shelf
CIO card
CIO to LPA backplane RF cable
LPA backplane
LPA
TX filter / TX filter combiner
TX thru-port cable to the top of frame
TX Path Calibration
The TX Path Calibration assures correct site installation, cabling, and the
first order functionality of all installed equipment. The proper function
of each RF path is verified during calibration. The external test
equipment is used to validate/calibrate the TX paths of the BTS.
WARNING
Aug 2002
Before installing any test equipment directly to any TX OUT
connector you must first verify that there are no CDMA
channels keyed. Have the OMC-R place the sector assigned to
the LPA under test OOS. Failure to do so can result in serious
personal injury and/or equipment damage.

CAUTION
Always wear a conductive, high impedance wrist strap while
handling any circuit card/module. If this is not done, there is a
high probability that the card/module could be damaged by ESD.
NOTE
At new site installations, to facilitate the complete test of each
CCP shelf (if the shelf is not already fully populated with BBX
boards), move BBX boards from shelves currently not under test
and install them into the empty BBX slots of the shelf currently
being tested to insure that all BBX TX paths are tested.
- This procedure can be bypassed on operational sites that are
due for periodic optimization.
- Prior to testing, view the CDF file to verify the correct
BBX slots are equipped. Edit the file as required to include
BBX slots not currently equipped (per Systems
Engineering documentation).
BLO Calibration Data File
During the calibration process, the LMF creates a calibration (BLO) data
file. After calibration has been completed, this offset data must be
downloaded to the BBXs using the Download BLO function. An
explanation of the file is shown below.
NOTE
Due to the size of the file, Motorola recommends that you print
out a hard copy of a bts.cal file and refer to it for the following
descriptions.
The CAL file is subdivided into sections organized on a per slot basis (a
slot Block).
Slot 1 contains the calibration data for the 12 BBX slots. Slot 20
contains the calibration data for the redundant BBX (see Table 3-39).
Each BBX slot header block contains:
A creation Date and Time - broken down into separate parameters of
createMonth, createDay, createYear, createHour, and createMin.
The number of calibration entries - fixed at 720 entries corresponding
to 360 calibration points of the CAL file including the slot header and
actual calibration data.
The calibration data for a BBX is organized as a large flat array. The
array is organized by branch, BBX slot, and calibration point.
- The first breakdown of the array indicates which branch the
contained calibration points are for. The array covers transmit, main
receive and diversity receive offsets as follows:

Refer to the hard copy of the file. As you can see, 10 calibration
points per sector are supported for each branch. Two entries are
required for each calibration point.
The first value (all odd entries) refer to the CDMA channel
(frequency) the BLO is measured at. The second value (all even
entries) is the power set level. The valid range for PwrLvlAdj is from
2500 to 27500 (2500 corresponds to -125 dBm and 27500
corresponds to +125 dBm).
The 20 calibration entries for each slot/branch combination must be
stored in order of increasing frequency. If less than 10 points
(frequencies) are calibrated, the largest frequency that is calibrated is
repeated to fill out the 10 points.

NOTE
Verify the GPIB is properly connected and turned on.
! CAUTION
To prevent damage to the test equipment, all transmit (TX) test connections must be via the 30 dB
directional coupler for 800 MHz or via a 30 dB coupler with a 20 dB in-line attenuator for 1900 MHz.
Connect the LMF computer terminal to the BTS LAN A connector on the BTS (if you have not
already done so). Refer to the procedure in Table 3-6.
If required, calibrate the test equipment per the procedure in Table 3-32.
Connect the test equipment as shown in Figure 3-16, Figure 3-17 and Figure 3-18.
Transmit (TX) Path Calibration
The assigned channel frequency and power level (as measured at the top
of the frame) for transmit calibration is derived from the site CDF file.
For each BBX, the channel frequency is specified in the ChannelList
CDF file parameter and the power is specified in the SIFPilotPwr
CDF file parameter for the sector associated with the BBX (located
under the ParentSECTOR field of the ParentCARRIER CDF file
parameter).
The calibration procedure attempts to adjust the power to within +0.5 dB
of the desired power. The calibration will pass if the error is less than
+1.5 dB.
The TX Bay Level Offset at sites WITHOUT the directional coupler
option, is approximately 42.0 dB ±3.0 dB.

Adjusting for loss
68P09255A57-2
At sites WITHOUT RFDS option, BLO is approximately
42.0 dB ±4.0 dB. A typical example would be TX output power
measured at BTS (36.0 dBm) minus the BBX TX output level
(approximately -6.0 dBm) would equate to 42 dB BLO.
The TX Bay Level Offset at sites WITH the directional coupler option,
is approximately 41.4 dB ±3.0 dB. TX BLO = Frame Power Output
minus BBX output level.
Example: TX output power measured at RFDS TX coupler
(39.4 dBm) minus the BBX TX output level (approximately
-2.0 dBm) and RFDS directional coupler/cable (approximately
-0.6 dBm) would equate to 41.4 dB BLO.
The LMF Tests menu list items, TX Calibration and All Cal/Audit,
perform the TX BLO Calibration test for a XCVR(s). The All Cal/Audit
menu item performs TX calibration, downloads BLO, and performs TX
audit if the TX calibration passes. All measurements are made through
the appropriate TX output connector using the calibrated TX cable setup.
Test Pattern Drop-down Pick List
Pilot is shown as the default setting in this pick list box. The full range
of available selections and their descriptions are as follows:
Standard - performs calibration or audit using pilot, paging, synch, and
six traffic channels with IS-97-specified gain. This pattern setting
should be used for all non-in-service calibrations and audits. Using this
pattern setting requires the selection of both a BBX and at least one
MCC.
Pilot (default) - performs calibration using only the pilot channel. This
pattern setting should be used for in-service calibrations, and requires
selection of only a BBX.
CDFPilot -This pattern setting is for advanced users. It performs
calibration or audit using the CDF value for pilot gain and IS-97 gain
values for all the other channels included in the Standard pattern setting
(paging, synch, and six traffic). Using this pattern setting requires the
selection of both a BBX and at least one MCC.
CDF - This pattern setting is for advanced users who need to use CDF
gain settings for all channels included in the Standard pattern setting
(pilot, paging, synch, and six traffic). Using this pattern setting requires
the selection of both a BBX and at least one MCC.
Verify BLO
In both the TX Calibration and All Cal/Audit dialog boxes, a Verify
BLO checkbox is provided and checked by default. After the actual TX
calibration is completed during either the TX Calibration or All
Cal/Audit process, the BLO derived from the calibration is compared to
a standard, acceptable BLO tolerance for the BTS. In some installations,
additional items may be installed in the transmit path. The additional
change in gain from these items could cause BLO verification failure
and, therefore, failure of the entire calibration. In these cases, either the
Verify BLO checkbox should be unchecked or the additional path losses
should be added into each applicable sector using the
Util>Edit>TX Coupler Loss function.

RFDS Calibration
The RFDS Calibration option is used to calibrate the RFDS TX and RX
paths.
TX Path Calibration - For a TX antenna path calibration the BTS
XCVR is keyed at a pre-determined power level and the BTS power
output level is measured by the RFDS. The power level is then measured
at the TX antenna directional coupler by the power measuring test
equipment item being used (power meter or analyzer). The difference
(offset) between the power level at the RFDS and the power level at the
TX antenna directional coupler is used as the TX RFDS calibration
offset value.
RX Path Calibration - For an RX antenna path calibration the RFDS is
keyed at a pre-determined power level and the power input level is
measured by the BTS BBX. A CDMA signal at the same power level
measured by the BTS BBX is then injected at the RX antenna directional
coupler by the communications system analyzer. The difference (offset)
between the RFDS-keyed power level and power level measured at the
BTS BBX is the RFDS RX calibration offset value.
RFDS calibration and the CAL file - The TX and RX RFDS
calibration offset values are written to the CAL file in the slot[385]
Block.
TSIC channel frequency - For each RFDS TSIC, the channel
frequency is determined at the lower third and upper third of the
appropriate band using the frequencies listed in Table 3-51.

Alarms
The alarms testing should be performed at a convenient point in the
optimization/ATP process, since the LMF is necessary to ensure that the
RF cabinet is receiving the appropriate alarms from the power cabinet.
The SC 4812ET is capable of concurrently monitoring 10 customer
defined input signals and four customer defined outputs, which interface
to the 50-pin punchblock. All alarms are defaulted to “Not Equipped”
during ATP testing. Testing of these inputs is achieved by triggering the
alarms and monitoring the LMF for state-transition messages from the
active MGLI3.
All customer alarms are routed through the 50 pair punchblock located
in the I/O compartment at the back of the frame. Testing is best
accomplished by using a specialized connector that interfaces to the
50-pair punchblock. This connector is wired so that customer return 1 (2
for the B side) is connected to every input, CDI 0 through CDI 17.

ATP Tests
Introduction
The Automated Acceptance Test Procedure (ATP) allows Motorola
Cellular Field Engineers (CFEs) to run automated acceptance tests on all
equipped BTS subsystem devices using the Local Maintenance Facility
(LMF) and supported test equipment per the current Cell Site Data File
(CDF) assignment.
The results of these tests (at the option of the operator) are written to a
file that can be printed. All tests are controlled via the LMF platform
using the GPIB interface, therefore, only recommended test equipment
supported by the LMF can be used.
This chapter describes the tests run from the GUI environment, which is
the recommended method. The GUI provides the advantages of
simplifying the LMF user interface, reducing the potential for miskeying
commmands and associated parameters, and speeding up the execution
of complex operations involving multiple command strings. If you feel
the command line interface (CLI) will provide additional insight into the
progress of ATPs and problems that could possibly be encountered, refer
to LMF CLI Commands.
NOTE
Before using the LMF, use an editor to view the ”CAVEATS”
section in the ”readme.txt” file in the c:\wlmf folder for any
applicable information.
The ATP test is to be performed on out-of-service sectors only.
DO NOT substitute test equipment with other models not
supported by the LMF.
Reduced ATP
NOTE
Equipment has been factory-tested for FCC compliance. If
license-governing bodies require documentation supporting
SITE compliance with regulations, a full ATP may be necessary.
Perform the Reduced ATP only if reports for the specific BTS
site are NOT required.
After downloading the proper operational software to the BTS, the
Cellular Field Engineer (CFE) must perform these procedures (minimal
recommendation):
Verify the TX/RX paths by performing TX Calibration, TX Audit
and FER tests.
Retrieve Calibration Data required for normal site operation.
Should failures occur while performing the specified tests, refer to the
Basic Troubleshooting section of this manual for help in determining the
failure point. Once the point of failure has been identified and corrected,
refer to the BTS Optimization and ATP Test Matrix section (Table B-1)
to determine the applicable test that must be performed.

ATP Tests
68P09255A57-2
In the unlikely event that the BTS passes these tests but has a forward
link problem during normal operation, the CFE should then perform the
additional TX tests for troubleshooting: TX spectral mask, TX rho, and
TX code domain.
NOTE
Refer to Chapter 3 for detailed information on test set
connections for calibrating equipment, cables and other test set
components, if required.
Customer requirements determine which ATP tests are to be performed
and the field engineer selects the appropriate ATP tests to run.
The tests can be run individually or as one of the following groups:
All TX: TX tests verify the performance of the BTS transmit line up.
These include the GLI3, MCC, BBX, and CIO cards, the LPAs and
passive components including splitters, combiners, bandpass filter,
and RF cables.
All RX: RX tests verify the performance of the BTS receiver line up.
These includes the MPC (for starter frames), EMPC (for expansion
frames), CIO, BBX, MCC, and GLI3 cards and the passive
components including RX filter (starter frame only), and RF cables.
All TX/RX: Executes all the TX and RX tests.
Full Optimization: Executes the TX calibration, download BLO, and
TX audit before running all of the TX and RX tests.
ATP Test Prerequisites
Before attempting to run any ATP tests, ensure the following:
BTS has been optimized and calibrated (see Chapter 3).
LMF is logged into the BTS.
CSMs, GLI3s, BBXs, MCCs and TSU (if the RFDS is installed)have
correct code load and data load
WARNING
Primary CSM and GLI3 are INS_ACT
MCCs are INS_ACT.
BBXs are OOS-RAM.
BBXs are calibrated and BLOs are downloaded.
Test cables are calibrated.
Test equipment is selected.
Test equipment is connected for ATP tests.
Test equipment has been warmed up 60 minutes and calibrated.
GPIB is on.
Before the FER is run, be sure that all LPAs are turned OFF
(circuit breakers pulled) or that all transmitter ports are properly
terminated.
All transmit ports must be properly terminated for all ATP tests.
Failure to observe these warnings may result in bodily injury or
equipment damage.

NOTE
Table:note. Note 10pt Helvetica
Many of the acceptance test procedures require taking
measurements at the TX OUT (BTS/RFDS) connector. At sites
with RFDS, all measurements are through the RFDS directional
coupler TX OUT connector.
ATP Test Procedure
There are three different ATP testing options that can be performed to
completely test a BTS. Depending on your requirements, one of the
following ATP testing options should be run. Table 4-1 provides the
procedure to execute an ATP test. To completely test a BTS, run the ATP
tests according to one of the following ATP testing options.

NOTE
The Full Optimization test can be run if you want the TX path
calibrated before all the TX and RX tests are run.
NOTE
If manual testing has been performed with the HP analyzer,
remove the manual control/system memory card from the card
slot and set the IO CONFIG to the Talk & Listen mode before
starting the automated testing.

Individual Acceptance Tests
The following individual ATP tests can be used to verify the results of
specific tests:
Spectral Purity TX Mask
This test verifies that the transmitted CDMA carrier waveform,
generated on each sector, meets the transmit spectral mask specification
with respect to the assigned CDF file values.
Waveform Quality (rho)
This test verifies that the transmitted Pilot channel element digital
waveform quality (rho) exceeds the minimum specified value in
ANSI-J_STD-019. “Rho” represents the correlation between actual and
perfect CDMA modulation spectrum. A rho value of 1.0000 represents
100% (or perfect correlation).
Pilot Time Offset
The Pilot Time Offset is the difference between the CDMA analyzer
measurement interval (based on the BTS system time reference) and the
incoming block of transmitted data from the BTS (Pilot only, Pilot
Gain = 262, PN Offset = 0).
Code Domain Power
This test verifies code domain power levels, which have been set for all
ODD numbered Walsh channels, using the OCNS command. This is
done by verifying that the ratio of PILOT divided by OCNS is equal to
10.2 + 2 dB, and, that the noise floor of all EVEN numbered “OFF”
Walsh channels measures < -27 dB .
Frame Error Rate
The Frame Error Rate (FER) test verifies RX operation of the entire
CDMA Reverse Link using all equipped MCCs assigned to all
respective sector/antennas. The test verifies the BTS sensitivity on all
traffic channel elements currently configured on all equipped MCCs at
an RF input level of -119 dBm (or -116 dBm if using TMPC). Follow
the procedure in Table 4-1 to perform any ATP test.

keyed up at a specific frequency per the current CDF file assignment.
All tests are performed using the external calibrated test set controlled by
the same command. All measurements are via the appropriate TX OUT
(BTS/RFDS) connector.
For each sector/antenna under test, the Pilot Gain is set to 262 and all
MCC channel elements under test are configured to generate Orthogonal
Channel Noise Source (OCNS) on different odd Walsh codes, and are
assigned a full-rate gain of 81. The maximum number of MCC/CEs to
be tested at any one time is 32 (32 odd Walsh codes). If more than 32
CEs exist, then multiple sets of measurements are made, so all channel
elements are verified on all sectors.
BBX2 power output is set to 40 dBm as measured at the TX OUT
connector (on either the BTS or RFDS directional coupler).
Code domain power levels, which have been set for all ODD numbered
Walsh channels, are verified using the OCNS command. This is done by
verifying that Pilot Power (dBm) minus OCNS Power (dBm) is equal to
10.2 + 2 dB and that the noise floor of all “OFF” Walsh channels
measures < -27 dB (with respect to total CDMA channel power).
The BBX2 then de-keys and, the applicable redundant BBX2 is assigned

Background: FER Test
This test verifies the BTS FER on all traffic channel elements currently
configured on all equipped MCCs (full rate at 1% FER) at an RF input
level of -119 dBm [or -116 dBm if using Tower Top Amplifier
(TMPC)]. All tests are performed using the external calibrated test set as
the signal source controlled by the same command. All measurements
will be via the LMF.
The pilot gain is set to 262 for each TX antenna and all channel elements
from the MCCs are forward-link disabled. The BBX2 is keyed up using
only bbxlvl level offsets, to generate a CDMA carrier (with pilot channel
element only). BBX2 power output is set to -20 dBm as measured at the
TX OUT connector (on either the BTS or RFDS directional coupler).
The BBX2 must be keyed in order to enable the RX receive circuitry.

The LMF prompts the MCC/CE under test to measure all zero longcode
and provide the FER report on the selected active MCC on the reverse
link for both the main and diversity RX antenna paths, verifying the
results meet the following specification: FER returned less than 1% and
total frames measured is 1500.
All MCC/CEs selected are tested on the specified RX antenna path. The
BBX then de-keys and, the applicable redundant BBX2 is assigned to
the current RX antenna paths under test. The test is then repeated.
Background
Each time an ATP test is run, an ATP report is updated to include the
results of the most recent ATP tests if the Save Results button is used to
close the status report window. The ATP report will not be updated if the
status reports window is closed with use of the Dismiss button.
