The BTS Primary RF Path Map is verified and set using the Remote Maintenance Tool (RMT). It is assumed that the cell equipment has already been integrated and is in-service, meaning the RF Path Map was properly configured at the time of integration. The procedures specified herein are to be performed if problems occur during the operation of the cell equipment or when updates need to be made to the existing RF Path Map. The BTS Primary RF Path Map parameters can be reviewed either on-line or off-line via the RMT connection. It is highly recommended that whenever changes or updates are made to the backplane parameters that the cell is removed from service.
Note: When creating or modifying .xml files always save a copy of the file to the appropriate directory folder on your computer.
The instructions in this section apply to both UCRs (5MHz radio) and MCRs (15 MHz radio). The term Radio used throughout this section refers to both UCR and MCR.

TDU Numbering
Currently a frame with UCRs (5 MHz Radio) can be equipped with the TDU 1 and TDU 2. TDU 1 is used for antenna tests while TDU 2 is used for Closed Loop Gain Control (CLGC). RMT does not reference TDU in the same manner as ECP Database translations. See the table below. This Handbook section follows the RMT convention and refers to the TDU in a frame as TDU 1 or TDU 2. Frame Primary RMT Reference 1 2 Growth #1 Database Translation Reference 1 2 Function Antenna Test CLGC
TDU Connections
TDU 1 connects to the J2 & J3 ports for Duplex and Triplex filters. TDU 2 connects to the external coupler on the J8 or J9 port of the Duplex and Triplex filters.
MCR Connections
For the HD RF paths, the MCR connects to a Dual Duplex Filter (MCRs transmitting through a Modcell 3.0 Filter is not supported). The MCR supports both Antenna Test and Closed Loop Gain Control (CLGC). The following ports on the MCR are used for these functions: MCR Port RC1 RC2 TONE Dual Duplex Filter Connection J11 J31 J41 Function CLGC (for Tx1 port) CLGC (for Tx2 port) Antenna Test
NOTE: The MCR can also connect to the HD Combiner Attenuator Unit (CAU). In this case, the MCR is transmitting through the SII LAC or pre-R29 BS 8440A (MCPA). CLGC is not supported for MCRs connected to a CAU and Antenna Tests are executed by the SII RTU (if equipped).

The many different configurations of the Compact 4.0 can be grouped into three categories: Standard Configuration, In-Building System (IBS), and Hot Spot. IBS configurations are typically used for in-building low power per carrier applications. IBS configurations do not have receive diversity. IBS cells only use one RF output port. IBS cells use Max Power and CBR Attenuation values that do not reflect the actual output power at the antenna connector. For example, cells not equipped with amplifiers are IBS cells. Inbuilding cells typically have splitters and combiners. Just because a cell is located indoors that does not make it an IBS configuration. Cells that are configured for a Hot Spot application are typically multi carrier low output power per carrier cells. Hot Spot cells do have receive diversity. Hot Spot configurations have an RF output power of 5W per carrier for 850 cells. For Hot Spot cells the TX1 Targ Pwr Offset and TX2 Targ Pwr Offset BTS Primary RF Path Map fields are 0.0. Any Compact that is not configured for IBS or Hot Spot applications is considered a Standard Configuration. All Standard Configuration Compact 4.0 cells must have the TX1 Targ Pwr Offset and TX2 Targ Pwr Offset BTS Primary RF Path Map fields set to 0.0.
See the table below for possible values of the TX1 and TX2 Targ Pwr Offset.

The BTS RF Test Path Map is verified and set using the Remote Maintenance Tool (RMT). It is assumed that the cell equipment has already been integrated and is in-service, meaning the RF Test Path Map was properly configured at the time of integration. The procedures specified herein are to be performed if problems occur during the operation of the cell equipment or when updates need to be made to the existing RF Test Path Map. The BTS RF Test Path Map parameters can be reviewed either on-line or off-line via the RMT connection. It is highly recommended that whenever changes or updates are made to the backplane parameters that the cell is removed from service.
Note: When creating or modifying .xml files always save a copy of the file to the appropriate directory folder on your computer.

TDU Numbering
Currently a frame with UCRs (5 MHz Radio) can be equipped with the TDU 1 and TDU 2. TDU 1 is used for antenna tests while TDU 2 is used for Closed Loop Gain Control (CLGC). RMT does not reference TDU in the same manner as ECP Database translations. See the table below. This Handbook section follows the RMT convention and refers to the TDU in a frame as TDU 1 or TDU 2. Frame Primary RMT Reference 1 2 Growth #1 Database Translation Reference 1 2 Function Antenna Test CLGC
TDU Connections
TDU 1 connects to the J2 & J3 ports for Duplex and Triplex filters. TDU 2 connects to the external coupler on the J8 or J9 port of the Duplex and Triplex filters.
MCR Connections
For the HD RF paths, the MCR connects to a Dual Duplex Filter (MCRs transmitting through a Modcell 3.0 Filter is not supported). The MCR supports both Antenna Test and Closed Loop Gain Control (CLGC). The following ports on the MCR are used for these functions: MCR Port RC1 RC2 TONE Dual Duplex Filter Connection J11 J31 J41 Function CLGC (for Tx1 port) CLGC (for Tx2 port) Antenna Test
NOTE: The MCR can also connect to the HD Combiner Attenuator Unit (CAU). In this case, the MCR is transmitting through the SII LAC or pre-R29 BS 8440A (MCPA). CLGC is not supported for MCRs connected to a CAU and Antenna Tests are executed by the SII RTU (if equipped).
