This is the list of fixed timers with a brief explanation and their values.

A timer expiry message appears in its own window, on the test set display. The user has no access to these values and can Timer Name Description Detects the presence of the radio link by detecting SACCH T100 RADIO-LINK-TIMEOUT frames every 480 ms. Used for re-transmission on the data link. The value varies T200 Data link timer depending on the message type. Timer used to limit the amount of time a user has to answer a T301 Alerting (ringing) timer call. Time the network waits after sending a CM SERVICE T303 Mobility Management connection REQUEST until receiving a response. This occurs before timer initiating call clearing procedures towards the MS. Time the network waits after transmitting a DISCONNECT T305 Release timer message until receiving a RELEASE message. Time the network waits after transmitting a DISCONNECT T306 In-band tones release timer message while in-band tones/announcements are provided, until receiving a RELEASE message. Time the network waits after sending a RELEASE message until receiving a RELEASE COMPLETE message. This occurs T308 Release timer before re-transmitting the RELEASE or releasing the Mobility Management connection. Time the network waits after receiving a CALL CONFIRMED message until receiving a ALERTING, CONNECT, or T310 Call proceeding timer DISCONNECT message before initiating clearing procedures towards the MS. T313 Connect acknowledge timer Time the network waits after transmitting a CONNECT message until receiving the CONNECT ACKNOWLEDGE message before performing clearing procedures with the MS. Time the network waits after sending a MODIFY message during call mode changes, until receiving a MODIFY COMPLETE or MODIFY REJECT message before initiating call clearing procedures. Time the network waits after sending the IMMEDIATE ASSIGNMENT or IMMEDIATE ASSIGNMENT EXTENDED message until the main signalling link is established before releasing the newly allocated channels. Time the network waits after transmitting a HANDOVER COMMAND message until receiving HANDOVER COMPLETE or HANDOVER FAILURE or the MS re-establishes the call before the old channels are released. If the timer expires and the network has not received a correctly decoded L2 (format A or B) or TCH frame, then the newly allocated channels are released. Time the network waits after sending the PHYSICAL INFORMATION message until receiving a correctly decoded L2 (format A or B) or TCH frame. This occur before re-transmitting the PHYSICAL INFORMATION message or releasing the newly allocated channels. Time the network waits after transmitting an ASSIGNMENT COMMAND message until receiving the ASSESSMENT FAILURE message or the MS re-establishes the call before releasing the old and the new channels. Time the network waits after sending the CHANNEL RELEASE message before disconnecting the signalling link. Time the network waits after disconnecting the signalling link before deactivating the channel. Time the network waits after transmitting the PAGING REQUEST message until receiving the PAGING RESPONSE message. This occurs before re-transmitting the PAGING REQUEST (if the maximum number of re-transmissions have not been exceeded). The location update timer is set to zero, periodic location update by the MS are disabled. If the MS camps to the BCH and decodes a new MCC or MNC from the one it last camped on, it should perform a location update. Time the network waits after sending the TMSI REALLOCATION COMMAND until receiving TMSI REALLOCATION COMPLETE. This occurs before aborting the procedure and releasing the Radio Resource connection. Time the network waits after an AUTHENTICATION REQUEST until receiving AUTHENTICATION RESPONSE. This occurs before aborting the procedure and releasing the Radio Resource connection.
