1 Test Tool Setting

1.1 Information extraction and set for test

The software used for test is Repeater equipment network validation tool.
System requires a combination of local maintenance terminal software to achieve its control
function. Directly set, query, and display real-time alarm information to the base tation RF index
and status parameters . You can operate and maintenance of equipment at any time by the way
of locally, wireless data or text messages.

1.2 Hardware Requirements

Minimum system requirements for Local monitoring software installation :


 100MHz Intel Pentium processor
 32M RAM
 32M available disk space
 Free COM port
 Hays compatible modem
 Windows XP/Windows 7

1.3 Instructions
This section introduce the operation of the software specifically, including software's main
interface and how to local and remote connect GSM digital microwave remote radio systems.
1.3.1Operation preparation
Follow these steps for local or remote computer control.

1.3.2 Local control:


1、 Repeater startup
2、 PC startup
3、 through a RS232 serial cable to connect to a a given computer serial port of local
monitor , connect a local monitor and the digital base station remote system.
1.3.3 Remote Control:
1、 connect a local monitor and a PC modem.
2、 Repeater startup (digital microwave radio remote system should have SIM card).
3、 the modem and the PC startup.
Ensure repeater terminal configuration installed correctly, the software parameters
should be the latest version.

1.3.4 Install monitoring software


1) Download monitoring software installation package to PC.
2) Double click "Update.dat", run the monitoring software installation batch file.
3) After finished these operations, double-click the "TestTool.exe" to visit the
repeater remote operation maintenance interface.
Menu bar: used to select TestTool operating mode, site number conversion,communication
data analysis, the basic function test.
Site property bar: settings and site-related properties , to ensure equipment normal
communication, such as site number, equipment number.
Communication mode and parameter setting bar: Select communication mode and set
the relevant parameters, such as the option rs232,text messaging, packet
switching modes.
Functional operating area:used to execute the query, set commands.
Network parameters display:the query parameter will be displayed in this area; If you want to set
parameters, write the corresponding data on "setting" column, and then click the
"Settings" button.
Communication data display area: Communication data and process between TestTool
and equipmentl will be displayed here.

1.4 Local communications configuration

Repeater device supports local and remote control, for different control methods, operation
and maintenance unit should have different configurations.
1.4. 1 Local communications configuration

1、using the serial cable to connect repeater with local maintenance


terminal (computer) .(NOTE: You must use the given communication line).
2、Select channel type:
As shown in the following graph. Select channel type in the communication configuration
dialog box. Local communication, the channel type should select: RS232

3、Select the correct serial port:

As shown below, select the correct PC serial port number (the current connection with
the Repeater Serial port)


4、COM port property::
After channel types and serial port set up, click "Open" button. As shown below, set COM
port properties, then click "OK" .
After the success, the print will be as follows in the left bottom.

5、The default configuration of the site attributes:


The initial opening device, the device default site number is 1, the device number is
0; so when open the device, set the configuration parameters for the station as shown below, and
guarantee equipment to communicate normally .
6、the list of parameters query:

After the above settings, click the button ,TestTool will send "list of
parameters query" command to the device. In the query process, "query parameter list"
button was grayed out, then you can click "terminate the query" button to stop the queries .
TestTool receive the return packet from the device ,and then display the received data in the
data area.
7、Parameter query:

After query parameter list, click the " " button, TestTool default will send
commands to the device parameters for querying the entire list of parameters , at the same
time display the query data on the TestTool .
Query may be 5 to 30 seconds, please be patient.

After the data query , click the 'Device Information ", " network parameters " respectively
to view the corresponding parameter values.
If you want to query the value of a parameter, only check the box next to the
corresponding parameters, and then click the query button; if you want to set a parameter, only
enter the corresponding value to the corresponding parameters "settings", , and then click the
"Settings" command to complete.
8、Extended mode parameter query:
Operation and Maintenance Unit can divided as sub-normal mode and extended mode .
Normal mode contains most of the requirements of the operator control parameters , such as site
information, network parameters can be set / query item; extended mode contains operators
require additional monitoring parameters and allows manufacturers to customize the
monitoring parameters ,such as gain set, part of the switch settings. TestTool default mode is
normal mode.
First select the "System" → "expansion mode." Check the "extended mode" option. As
shown below:.

Then click the button , TestTool would send "query parameter list"
command to the device. In the query process, "query parameter list" button was grayed out,
then you can click "terminate query" button to stop the queries. TestTool receive the return
packet from the device ,and then display the received data in the data area.

After query parameter list, click the " " button, TestTool default will send
commands to the device parameters for querying the entire list of parameters , at the same time
display the query data on the TestTool .
After the data query , click the 'Device Information "," network parameters " respectively to view the
corresponding parameter values.
The current state is "extended mode", re-select the "System" → "expansion mode",
uncheck the extended model, can be restored to the default mode.
