INTRUDUCTION
This documet includes BSC basic commands for berginners.
BSC SW S7.17 was in used.
(BSC-MML commands may vary between different BSC SW version.)
In example has used BCF=57, BTS=66, TRX-1 and 2.
If you like to get more inforamtion, please look from NED, BSC S7:2.6 command
reference manual. NED is a program package designed for the retrieval, viewing,
and printing of the electronic Nokia documents. As a whole, NED consists of the
system documentation, the NED viewer and the Model.
At the beginning of an MML session, the user enters a user identification (= USER
ID) and his password.
START

Press any key.

COMMAND EXECUTED

6.1. Change max power

bs tx pwr max, PMAX = decimal number
With this parameter you identify the maximum transmission power of the BTS as
an attenuation from the peak power of the TRX. The possible attenuation values
range from 0 to 30 dB with a step size of 2 dB. The value of the parameter must be
smaller than or equal to the value of the parameter PMIN.

LINE EDITOR FUNCTIONS

CONTROL-A
Switches the editor from the INSERT mode to the REPLACE mode, or vice versa.
In the REPLACE mode, the new characters you type are placed on top of the old
characters, replacing them. In the INSERT mode, the old characters are moved
forward, making room for the new ones.
CONTROL-B
CONTROL-B can be used for the same search functions in the command buffer as
the 'up' arrow.
CONTROL-D
Moves the cursor one character to the left. Functions like the 'left' arrow.
CONTROL-F
Moves the cursor one character to the right. Functions like the 'right' arrow.
CONTROL-K
Language change key. Press the key to take the next language into use. The name of
the language is displayed if there are several languages available.
CONTROL-P
Pressing CONTROL-P displays the following text on the screen:
<PAGE MODE> or <CONTINUOUS MODE>
In addition, all the characters read into the line buffer so far are displayed. PAGE
MODE means that the text is displayed one screen at a time, and the system waits
for a command to continue the output. The request for the continuation command is
displayed on the bottom line of the screen.
CONTINUOUS MODE means that the text is output continuously without
interruptions.
You can change the PAGE MODE output to CONTINUOUS MODE during the
output when the program is waiting for the continuation command. It is not
possible to change the CONTINUOUS MODE to PAGE MODE during the
outputting.
CONTROL-Q
With this character, you can continue the output which you have interrupted by
pressing CONTROL-S.
CONTROL-S
Interrupts the output until CONTROL-Q is pressed.
