Introduction
1 Introduction
This document describes how to use the Operation and Maintenance Terminal
(OMT). It also describes how to set the Installation Database (IDB) parameters
for the RBS 6000 series radio base stations.
For more information about how to use the OMT, for example, when to define
a parameter, why the parameter must be set, which values are valid, and the
consequences of not setting a parameter, refer to User's Manual for OMT,
Remote OMT, and Remote OMT over IP, 1/198 17-CXP 104 0015.
Note: Descriptions of the OMT parameters are also included in the OMT
program online help.
IDB parameters are loaded to the RBS in two ways:
• By connecting the OMT to the Digital Unit (DU) and installing the IDB
• By inserting a flash card with the new IDB into the DU
1.1 Work Process for Setting IDB Parameters

This section describes the work process for setting the IDB parameters.
Information about the procedures that must be performed, and in which order
they must be carried out, is given in the following diagrams.
The details of the procedures are described in the text sections in this
document, where the headings relate to the diagrams.

To avoid hardware and IDB inconsistency, the RBS must register which RUs
are present.
By setting RUs to Present or Not present, the RBS recognizes which RUs
are used. If they are used they are present, and if they are not used they are
not present.
The following RUs are not automatically updated and must therefore be defined:
• Battery Fuse Unit (BFU)
• Power Distribution Unit (PDU)
• Power Supply Unit (PSU)
• Support Alarm Unit (SAU)
The following RUs are automatically marked as present when the RU is

detected:
Note: The radio units cannot be removed when in traffic.
• Antenna-Integrated Radio (AIR) unit
• Radio Unit
• Remote Radio Unit
Define the RUs Present or Not present as follows:
Note: For AIR, RUs, and RRUs, it is not possible to set to Not present in
CONNECTED state.
1. Select Configuration > Define > Present RUs... to open the Define
Present RUs window.
1/1543-LZA 701 6002 Uen PAC7 | 2016-02-03 13

15 Defining ALNA/TMA Parameters
Note: The instructions in this section are not valid for definition of ATMAs, that
is Tower Mounted Amplifiers (TMA) designed according to standards
from Antenna Interface Standards Group (AISG).
However, when an AISG TMA (ATMA) is used in mixed mode only, the
ATMA gain must be included in calculation of the feeder loss. See
Section 16.2 on page 31.
This section describes how to set the ALNA/TMA parameters, if this is

applicable.
The TMA parameters must be set when a TMA is connected and the
characteristics of the TMA are different from the default values in the IDB files
in the OMT. If any parameter is missing, the default values must be used.
1. Select Configuration > Define > ALNA/TMA... to open the Define

ALNA/TMA Parameters window.
2. In the Define ALNA/TMA window, select the relevant TMA and click Run.

16 Defining Loss and Checking Total Gain

Value
This section describes how to define the loss of the RX feeders and check
that the total gain value is within limits.
16.1 Defining Loss

Note: To define loss for feeders with ATMA, see Section 16.2 on page 31.
To sustain uplink RX sensitivity and optimize the RF performance of the RBS, it

is essential to define the correct value for the loss parameter. That includes
losses from jumper cables, combiners, splitters and RF filters of an RX feeder
chain with attached TMA.
For a TMA configuration, this means that if the feeder loss value, measured
and calculated in document Testing Antenna System, 8/1532-LZA 701 0003,
differs from the default loss value, the loss parameter must be updated to the
feeder loss value. See test record from Testing Antenna System, 8/1532-LZA
701 0003.
For non-TMA configurations, the loss parameter is kept to the default value of 0
dB. The default value can be kept in this case, because the feeder loss is not
part of the total RX path loss in this type of configuration.
This is how to define loss:
1. Select Configuration > Define > Loss... to open the Define Loss window.
2. Select the relevant RX feeder, for example, FEED_TXA_RXA 0, and click

Run.
3. In the Define Loss window, enter the Total Feeder Attenuation from the
test record for Antenna System Tests and click OK.
4. Repeat steps 2 to 3 for each RX feeder.
5. Close the Define Loss window, when finished.

Defining Loss and Checking Total Gain Value
16.2 Defining Loss for Feeders with ATMA

For standard TMAs the TMA gain is specified in Define ALNA/TMA, but for
ATMA gain must be included in the feeder loss calculation instead.
This is how to define loss when ATMA is included:
1. Select Configuration > Define > Loss... to open the Define Loss window.
2. Select the relevant RX feeder, for example, FEED_TXA_RXA 0, and click

Run.
3. Calculate the total loss value using the following formula:
Total loss = Feeder loss1) (dB) 0 ATMA gain

The final value can be negative.
4. In the Define Loss window, enter the calculated total loss value and click
OK.
5. Repeat steps 2 to 4 for each RX feeder including an ATMA.
6. Close the Define Loss window, when finished.

1)According to test record from document Testing Antenna System, 8/1532-LZA
701 0003.
16.3 Checking the Total Gain Value

The purpose of this check is to ensure that the total gain value is within system
performance limits.
1. Calculate the total gain value using the following formula:
Total gain = TMA gain or total feeder attenuation
2. Compare the calculated value to the maximum and minimum values in

Table 13.
Gain TOTmin ≤ total gain ≤ gain TOTmax
See Example 1.
Table 13 System Performance Limits

GSM System Gain TOT (dB)
Minimum Maximum
GSM 800/900 7 10
GSM 1800/1900 7 12
1/1543-LZA 701 6002 Uen PAC7 | 2016-02-03 31

The values in the table guarantee the specified sensitivity performance, and
that the GSM specification is met.
The following example illustrates what is stated above.
Prerequisites: GSM 1800/1900 RUG

TMA Gain = 12 dB
Total Feeder Attenuation = 4 dB
Total Gain = TMA Gain - Total Feeder Attenuation =
= 12 – 4 = 8 dB
Result: 7 ≤ 8 ≤ 12
Example 1 Checking that the Total Gain Value is Within Limits

ECMs are used.
• If the ECMs are used, they are present.
• If the ECMs are not used, they are not present.
If the ECMs not used are showed as Present, set the ECMs to Not Present. To
check the latest presence information of ECMs, see Section 5 on page 11.
1. Select Configuration > Define > ECM and Efuses... to display the Define
ECM and Efuses Parameters dialog box.
2. Select the PDU instance from the list. All ECMs controlled by the PDU
are showed.
3. If an ECM not used is listed in the box, select the ECM and click Set ECM
to Not Present.
18.2 Defining Efuses Parameters

This section describes how to define the E-fuses parameters.
1. Select Configuration > Define > ECM and Efuses... to display the Define
ECM and Efuses Parameters dialog box.
2. Select an E-fuse on the PDU Controller or on an ECM. Configure the

parameters listed in Table 18.
Table 18 Efuses Parameters

Remote • True Defines if it is possible to control and configure
the E-fuse remotely.
• False
• True = The output can be controlled by OMT or
other remote tools.
• False = The output cannot be controlled by OMT
or other remote tools.
If Remote Control is set to False in the PDU, the
E-fuse cannot be turned on or turned off by SW
command. If Remote Control is set to False in the
PDU 03 01, it is also not possible to change values
of Load Type and Cold Start for the E-fuse.

Defining ECM and Efuses Parameters
Table 18 Efuses Parameters

Cold Start • True Defines if the E-fuse turn on at cold startup or not.
In the PDU 03 01, Cold Start is available when
• False Remote is set to True.
• True = E-fuse output will start in a persistent
state, independently if it is in autonomous mode
or connected to the PDU controller.
• False = E-fuse output will not start in autonomous
mode unless operated by manual operation
with the push button. The E-fuse shall behave
according to the ECM cold start state machine.
Load Type • Main Load Defines if the E-fuse is used for Main load or
Priority load. In the PDU 03 01, Load Type is
• Priority Load available when Remote is set to True.
There are two disconnect levels in the BFU:
• Main load disconnect
• Priority load disconnect
When battery voltage drops below the specified
level set in the BFU, the BFU sends a signal to
the PDU. When the signal is received, the PDU
disconnects all outputs that are configured as the
following disconnect level:
• Main Load = The output of E-fuse will not be
disconnected until the Main level is reached.
• Priority Load = The output of E-fuse will not be
disconnected until the Priority level is reached,
though a non-priority output is disconnected
already at main load disconnect level.
3. Click Apply Efuse Setting when all parameters for the selected E-fuse
are set.
4. To define additional E-fuses, repeat Step 2 to Step 3.
5. Click Close when all parameters are set.

21 Defining Delay
This section describes how to define ESB and RX and TX feeder delay.
The parameter specifies the RF signal delay in the feeder. If the total feeder
delay value, as measured and calculated in document Testing Antenna System,
8/1532-LZA 701 0003, differs from the default delay, the delay parameter must
be updated to the total feeder delay value. This value is between 0–10,000 ns.
See test record from document Testing Antenna System, 8/1532-LZA 701 0003.
The complete RX and TX path consists of all the jumpers and feeders between
the RBS and the antenna. Components of the complete feeder system are
site-specific, but can include:
• Jumper, external to the RBS cabinet
• Feeder
• TMA jumper, if used
• TMA
• Antenna jumper
These are illustrated in the figure below.

Defining TF Holdover Mode
21.1 Special Cases

There is a number of special cases in determining feeder delay for the complete
feeder system. These include the following:
• The length or velocity factor for a jumper or feeder is known, but not found
in the tables
• The length of feeders and jumpers is not known
Length or Velocity Factor Not in Tables
If the length or velocity factor for a jumper or feeder is known, but not found in
the tables, the following formula is used:
Delay [ns] = Length of cable [m] / (Velocity factor ×3×108)
Length of Feeders and Jumpers Not Known
If the length of the feeders and jumpers is not known, they must be measured
using the Distance To Fault (DTF) test described in document Testing Antenna
System, 8/1532-LZA 701 0003.
22 Defining TF Holdover Mode
This section provides instructions for setting the TF Holdover Mode, using
the OMT.
Table 23 describes the TF Holdover Mode parameters possible to define.
1/1543-LZA 701 6002 Uen PAC7 | 2016-02-03 47

Table 23 TF Holdover Mode Parameters

Parameter Valid Value Default Description
TF Holdover Intra -cell Intra-cell Enables the mode to be specified for an
Mode RBS configured as slave. The mode can
Inter-cell be intra-cell or inter-cell holdover mode.
For a slave RBS, the frame synchronization
received from the ESB serves as the
synchronization source. When the RBS loses
its synchronization source, it can rely on the
internal oscillator for a limited time period,
called holdover. The length of the holdover
time depends on the setting of the TF holdover
mode. When the holdover time expires,
the RBS is taken out of traffic. In intra-cell
holdover mode, the RBS is used together with
other RBSs to constitute one or more cells,
which requires that the RBSs are in frame
synchronization with each other. In inter-cell
holdover mode, the RBS is not realizing cells
together with other RBSs.

TF Holdover Mode window.
2. Select Intra-cell or Inter-cell.
3. Click OK.
23 Defining GPS Parameters
This section describes how to define the Global Positioning System (GPS)
parameters.
Note: GPS is used as a general term for satellite-based time sources.

Therefore, GPS is used not only as a reference to Navstar GPS, but
also as a general synonym for Global Navigation Satellite System
(GNSS).
To be able to use the GPS as a synchronization source, the RBS must be

equipped with a GPS receiver.
A GPS receiver is used to achieve a synchronized radio network, and works as

a reference for RF frequency generation and GSM time-based counters.

The following instructions describe how to calculate the cable attenuation

between the Far End and the RBS. The cable attenuation determines whether
receiver sensitivity is to be set to short-haul or long-haul. Use of long-haul
requires that the equipment at the far end supports long-haul.

1. Calculate the cable attenuation between the Far End and the RBS
according to the following formula:
58 1/1543-LZA 701 6002 Uen PAC7 | 2016-02-03

Cable attenuation = cable length × cable attenuation per meter or foot.
If multidrop is used, calculate the attenuation of the entire RBS chain. This
is because Receiver Sensitivity A (C) is determined by the total attenuation
of the chain from port A (C) to Far End. Receiver Sensitivity B (D) is
determined by the total attenuation to the last RBS in the chain.
2. If the cable attenuation is less than 6 dB, set the receiver sensitivity to
short-haul.
If the cable attenuation is greater than 6 dB, set the receiver sensitivity
to long-haul.
3. Set unused ports to short-haul.
In this example, Far End and the RBS refer to

the figure above.
The cable length between the RBS and the Far End is 150 m.
The cable attenuation for the cable between the RBS
and the Far End is 0.03 dB/m
1. Calculate the cable attenuation between the Far End and

the RBS: 150 m × 0.03 dB/m = 4.5 dB
2. Set Receiver Sensitivity A for the RBS to Short-haul
3. Set Receiver Sensitivity B, C and D for the RBS
to Short-haul, which means not connected. not connected

4. In the TNOM Node ID box, enter the correct values. Valid TNOM Node ID
values are found in Table 42. Click OK when finished.
30 Defining VSWR Limits
This section describes how to define VSWR limits for configuring the
supervision of the antenna system.
Note: This function applies for RBSs with RUSs or RRUSs.
Prerequisites
Before defining the VSWR limits, check the following:
• The test results from the Standing Wave Ratio (SWR) tests are available
• There are no faults in the antenna system. For information about how to
test the antenna system, see the document Testing Antenna System.
Note: If VSWR alarms are received and no faults are found in the antenna
system, the IDB must be updated with increased VSWR alarm
limits.
Defining Recommended VSWR Limits
Parameters for VSWR limits are set to adjust the detection of problems with the
antenna system for the specific site.
Note: Examples when limits must be defined for VSWR class 1 and 2 can be
short feeder, diplexer, and TMA use. Typically, in these cases, higher
VSWR limits are required.
Table 43 describes the parameters available for the VSWR limits that can be
defined.

32 Installing IDBs
This section describes how to install the IDB in the RBS by connecting the
OMT to the DU.
Note: Using the OMT, always reload the software and install the relevant IDB
after moving a used flash card to another cabinet. This ensures that
software and correct configuration are consistent.
The RBS must be in local mode to accept a new or modified IDB.

1. If the RBS is in remote

mode, change the setting to
local mode by pressing the
Maintenance button on the
DU. The Maintenance indicator
starts to flash.
2. Wait until the Maintenance indicator has a constant yellow light. This
indicates that the RBS is in local mode.
3. There are two options for installing the IDB. Proceed to the following
relevant section:
• Installing the IDB in the RBS by connecting the OMT to the DU, as
described in Section 32.1 on page 74
• Installing the IDB in the Flash Card, as described in Section 32.2 on

page 74
32.1 Installing IDBs in RBSs by Connecting OMT to a DU
