The configuration procedure is the same as that described in 7.1.3Configuring 6E1Port*2TRX/Port.

7.2 Configuring Chain Networking Data

Chain networking data configuration supports single chain and multi-chain networking. The single chain networking means that a site is connected to BSC or the upper-level site via one E1 port. The multi-chain networking means that a site is connected to BSC or the upper-level site via multiple E1 ports. The chain networking comprises 5 trunk modes.

2E1 Port multiplex/port Sim 12:1 Sim 10:1 2E1 Port* 64K LAPD/Port 2E1 Port*32K LAPD Multiplex Mode/Port 4E1 Port*6TRX/Port(Support Link) 6E1 Port*2TRX/Port(Support Link)

The data configuration procedure for each networking mode is basically the same. To describe single chain and multi-chain networking configurations, here, take "2E1 Port * 64K LAPD/Port" as an example.

7.6 Configuring Site Monitor Timeslot

I. Overview
The algorithm of monitor timeslot is so complex that it is hard to realize manual modification. Besides, the user must be well familiar with the equipment when configuring the monitor timeslots during adding/deleting TRX/Site/Cell. With the auto calculation function provided by the system, the calculation of monitor timeslot can be realized automatically, and the corresponding configuration will also be simplified.

II. Operating Principle

The realization of semi-permanent connection can be divided into three parts theoretically: from Abis interface to BSC 64K link, BNET network board switching and from BSC to A interface 64K link. The both ends of the semi-permanent connection are the most important. One is the information input for the connection between monitor timeslot device and a site, and the other is the corresponding end channel No.

25

Initial Configuration M900/M1800 BSC Data Configuration Manual

Chapter 7 BTS Networking Data

After all the above information has been input, the system can decide the arrangement of the monitor timeslot in various sites, and then perform network board connection to create a 64K link from Abis interface to A interface, as shown in Figure 1.1.

Figure 1.1 Monitor Timeslot As shown in Figure 1.1, the monitor timeslot is connected to Site 1 directly, and the following three messages must be input. 1) 2) 3) Site 1 BIE port No. connecting to monitor device (that is, which port of Site1 is connected with E4. Abis timeslot No. connecting to monitor device End Channel No. in Semi-permanent Connection Table.

After the corresponding information is input, the system performs calculation automatically, and decides the arrangement of the monitor timeslot in E1, E2 and E3, and then works out the HW timeslot No. (End Channel No. in Semi-permanent Connection Table) corresponding to this monitor timeslot. Finally, it refreshes all tables relative to the monitor timeslot.

III. Operating Steps

1) In the navigation tree, select a site to be configured with monitor timeslot, and then right click to select [Configure Site Monitor Timeslot], as shown in Figure 1.1

26

Initial Configuration M900/M1800 BSC Data Configuration Manual

Chapter 7 BTS Networking Data

Refer to Figure 1.2 for the meanings of End Channel No., Site BIE Port No. Connects Monitor Device and Abis Timeslot No. Connects Monitor Device in Figure 1.2. For Site BIE Port No. Connects Monitor Device and Abis Timeslot No. Connects Monitor Device, the user can select the corresponding information from the pull-down list directly. While for End Channel No., it can be input by the user manually, or worked out automatically by the system as per the information input. Double click the column where the End Channel No. is to pop up the [Set End Channel No.] interface, as shown in Figure 1.3.

Figure 1.3 Configure End Channel No. In Figure 1.3, if [User input] is not selected, the End Channel No. will be worked out by the system automatically as per the information input. For example, if the transparent transmission BIE HW start No. is 88, the corresponding End Channel No. = 88 (transparent transmission BIE start No.) x 32 + 2 (BIE port No.) x 32 + 0 (BIE timeslot No.) = 2880. Then click <OK> to finish setting End Channel No. Then the interface backs to the [Configure Site Monitor Timeslot] interface, as shown in Figure 1.2. In Figure 1.3, if [User input] is selected, the End Channel No. must be input manually. In this case, the End Channel No. box is enabled. Meanwhile, the other three parameters including End Equipment Type, BIE Port No. and BIE Timeslot No. are dimmed, as shown in Figure 1.4.

Then click <OK> to finish the configuration for the site. 4) After all data has been configured, click <Transfer> to refresh all DBF tables.

Caution:

When using auto calculation function to configure monitor timeslot for a site, make sure not to select Manual Mode when selecting BSC BIE port. After new monitor timeslot are generated by auto calculation function, the previous monitor timeslot configured manually are still effective. Besides, the user can still set Semi-permanent Connection" and BSC BIE Semi-permanent Connection manually, and set the BIE port of the BSC where the site is as Manual Mode.

5) After the transfer operation is successfully implemented, the user can click <Semipermanent Connection> button in the [Local Office] tab page to view the Semipermanent Connection record generated automatically, as shown in Figure 1.5.
