ABIS PATH UNAVAILABLE

What is “ABIS PATH UNAVAILABLE”?

It is TS related alarm, one TRX contains 8 TS (Time Slot) and all TS are using device. So Particular TS is n
getting ABIS path or device. This alarm is classified as a Major alarm (Alarm class: A2)

What is the Impact?

It is minor service impact alarm as the EDGE users on that particular site will not be able to use intern
properly. The EDGE users might get interruption to access internet.

What is the reason for raising this alarm?

There is no more 64K transmission devices exists between the BSC and RBS
Here on the ABIS path there is only two 64K devices is reserved for the EDGE.
Where minimum three devices is needed to reserve for EDGE as every BRS contains Three cells. Also no
that it is actually depending on operator initial EDGE configuration, but the normal sense is like that if th
EDGE users are increased on that particular site. At the same time the amount of EDGE capable devises m
have to be increased also.

For checking Configuration data of TG-119.here RXOTS-119-10-2 showing SELECT.
it means problematic TS.
rxcdp:mo=rxotg-119;

For checking whether the CELL is GPRS Supported or not, and showing GPRS Enable, I have taken print o
for 3rd cell because the alarm found in TRX-119-10 which is belongs to 3 rd CELL.
rlgsp:cell=dh03273;

For checking ABIS path on TG-119, it is showing how many Device is attached with TG-119.Total 31 devis
are attached with the TG-119.among them 25 devices are used for SPEECH/DATA, 2 Devices are reserve
for EDGE. And 4 devices are in idle state. Here 64K (=YES) means it is reserved only for EDGE.
rxapp:mo=rxotg-119;

How to Solve the Problem?

Earlier I told minimum 3 devices are required for resolving this problem. From RXAPP printout tells me that
devices (64k YES) are already reserved for EDGE. And one more EDGE supported device is required to sol
the problem. Then total EDGE supported device will be 3 for that particular RBS.

Now I have to work on idle devices as other devices are already used. From 4 idle devices I will take any on
that device I will be reserved for EDGE.
For example I am taking device “RBLT2-3833”, DCP value ”25” as it is IDLE & UNDEF

This command is used to detach the DCP “25” from the TG-119.note that before attaching any device with ne
feature (like EDGE 64K) in TG-119. you have to detach it first.
RXAPE:MO=RXOTG-119,DCP=25;

PERMANENT FAULT

What is “PERMANENT FAULT”?

It is TRX or TX/RX or TS related alarm, whenever this alarm generate in this four MO’s, it goes down an
can’t function properly. this alarm could be solved by doing normal troubleshooting ,This alarm is classified
a Major alarm (Alarm class: A2)

What is the Impact?

It is minor service impact alarm as that particular TRX having failed to carry Traffic.

Here one things need to remember if this alarm came in the TRX-0,TRX-4 or TRX-8 then the respecti
CELL of that TRX will go down as those three TRX are having BCCH data. As per configuration TRX-0
responsible for 1st CELL,TRX-4 for 2nd CELL and TRX-8 is for 3rd CELL. So whenever any type of alarms raise
by those three TRX should take immediate action on it other than CELL might go down.

What is the reason for raising this alarm ?

Without carrying traffic All MO’s are doing own supervision all the times also. here own supervision is bein
performed automatically within the certain number of times or period to ensure the smooth operation .S
whenever any TRX,TX,RX or TS will be permanently blocked by own supervision and it goes from Enable stat
to FAIL state means that during its own supervision any Faults in those MO’s have been occurred. An

How to Solve the Problem?

This type of problem you can solve by Remote OMT tools, before access to the site via Remote OMT you ha
to know the Node IP, port number, TG id and password, after giving all those properly you will be able
access to the site. in the menu bar there is a image (like Book, for read IDB) Just click on it, after readin
IDB all option will be appear, now go to DTRU option and find out TRX10 & TRX11,keep cursor on it after th
click left button & you will get to see “Local to Remote” just click on it. now go back to the WinFoil termin
for checking the status of TRX10 & TRX11.hope it will work.
After finish your job, you need to disconnect Remote OMT, so that others can use it.
If those TRX is not in-service, you need support with FME, raise TT and escalate it to FME as physical DTR
reset is required, there are few way it can be done like bellow as example

1st Step:

DTRU hard reset (There is a push/pull button, just push and release)

2nd Step:

DTRU power reset (There is a power switch button in IDM, make it OFF and wait some time after resettin
power then turn it ON)

3rd Step:

Pullout DTRU from cabinet & insert it again (Respective power switch turn OFF is required before pullout th
DTRU)

4th Step:

If the DTRU is not coming into service by doing above procedure then try to swap
with other DTRU which is working well. if the same type of problem is still persisting means that DTR
hardware is faulty and change is required. So change the DTRU with new one.
Please remember that to avoid outage don’t try to swap with 1st, 3rd & 5th DTRU as this three DTRU a
carrying BCCH data.

Following hardware FME can also check:

1) Check cable connection Y-link cable of those TRX (faulty cable or faulty port).
2) Check CXU, DXU, ECU, Local Bus, TRU backplane etc.
3) Check Power related issue like TRX power supply unite PSU, IDM, BFU, earthing connection

Now you can run following commands to check the problem is still persisting or not.

Command summery for Resolving “LOCAL MODE” alarm.

Without giving soft reset command (Like to all MO or Abis path), There is no other such troubleshootin
command which can resolve the “LOCAL MODE” alarm in TRX. By giving soft reset it might come in to servi
but after some time the same type of problem again arise. As it is not permanent solution I would not like
mention the soft reset command in this topics .So it is highly recommended that the physical check
necessary to solve this type of problem.

TRX OML FAULT

What is “OML FAULT”?

It is TRX hardware related alarm, Communication is not possible with the particular TRX which having OM
FAULT. As there is no communication with the TRX caused that all the time slots within the TRX will b
blocked. This alarm is classified as a Major alarm (Alarm class: A2)

What is the Impact?

It is minor service impact alarm, a single TRX having 8 TS (Time slot) means that it can handle 8 subscriber
So whenever any TRX went down at the same time TS within the TRX goes to blocking state and unable
carry traffic.

What is the reason for raising this alarm?

When there is no communication is possible with any TRX or if a fault is exists in the communications lin
between the BSC and RBS then the “OML FAULT” alarm will be issued by the TRX. Please also remember th
the “OML FAULT” alarm might come when DTRU have been physically removed from RBS but not remove
from IDB. So whenever FME or Project guys want to remove the TRX from RBS at the same time they shou
remove TRX from IDB also. otherwise the “OML FAULT” alarm will be remaining.

How to analysis this problems?

By running this command you will get the all major alarms of all sites. Find out “OML FAULT” alarm.

RXOTRX-87-10 NOOP BLO 0040 0008 STA
RXOTRX-87-11 NOOP BLO 0040 0008 STA

How to Solve the Problem?

As it is TRX hardware related problem. please do not try to troubleshoot by giving block/deblock or out
service/in service command in the TRX. if you troubleshoot by running those 4 commands, its state will b
change from “OML FAULT” to “LOCALE MODE” .So for this case just raise TT to FME and tell FME to go
the site as physical DTRU reset is required, there are few way it can be done like bellow as example:

1st Step:

DTRU hard reset (There is a push/pull button, just push and release)

2nd Step:

DTRU power reset (There is a power switch button in IDM, make it OFF and wait some time after resettin
power then turn it ON)

3rd Step:

Pullout DTRU from cabinet & insert it again (Respective power switch turn OFF is required before pullout th
DTRU)
4th Step:

If the DTRU is not coming into service by doing above procedure then try to swap
with other DTRU which is working well. if the same type of problem is still persisting means that DTR
hardware is faulty and change is required. So change the DTRU with new one.

Please remember that to avoid outage don’t try to swap with 1st, 3rd & 5th DTRU as this three DTRU a
carrying BCCH data.

Following hardware FME can also check:

1) Check cable connection Y-link cable of those TRX (faulty cable or faulty port).
2) Check CXU, DXU, ECU, Local Bus, TRU backplane etc.
3) Check Power related issue like TRX power supply unite PSU, IDM, BFU, earthing connection

Now you can run following commands to check the problem is still persisting or not.
rxasp:mo=rxotg-87;
rxmsp:mo= RXOTRX-87-10,subord;
rxmsp:mo= RXOTRX-87-11,subord;

LOADFILE MISSING

What is “LOADFILE MISSING”?

It is CF internal alarm. Due to Load file Missing CF goes down and it will be generate internal fault code cla
2A 25 which is Software related alarm, for this alarm CF cant not function properly and as a results RB
became down. This alarm is classified as a Major alarm (Alarm class: A2)

What is the Impact?

It is major service impact alarm, Subscriber on that particular sites will get interruption to access th
network. So whenever LOADFILE MISSING alarm came with any Sites, all MO’s within the Site goes
blocking state and unable to carry traffic.

What is the reason for raising this alarm?

By seeing this alarm It is very difficult to identify the root cause for raising this alarm, but here I am givin
there are few reasons that might caused the loadfile Missing alarm. Many times BTS software ge
corrupted, respective TG of that site gets hang. A lots of Bit Error Rate (BER) alarms in the Transmissio
path (in DIP). IDB can be corrupted during Transmission fluctuation (for this case Load the fresh IDB usin
Remote OMT software).DXU flash card faulty, or DXU got faulty due to power fluctuation or DXU intern
another faults.

How to analysis this problems?

By running bellow two commands you will get the Load file missing alarms.

rxmfp:mo=rxocf-293;

Bellow print out indicates CF having Fault code 2A 25 (2A 25 means LOADFILE MISSING).From fault cod
decoder you can get the meaning of all MO’s fault code. there are some Fault code decoder software or fau
code PDF are available in the KS Tools.
FAULT CODES CLASS 2A
25

How to Solve the Problem?

This type of problem you can solve by giving following single command
rxpli:mo=RXOTG-293,uc; ! Loading software unconditionally

Please note that don’t apply this command for another CF related Problem like CF FAIL,CF resetting Or CF
blocking state for another reason. Run this command according to fault code only.

If you get hues error in the transmission path (DIP),then reset the respective DIP
for resetting DIP ,Please check “DIP Quality Supervision” Topic in this Documents.
If not works then raise TT and send FME to check the Transmission path, some other cable connectivity,
all are ok then check the DXU flash card, other than change the DXU

Now you can run following commands to check the problem is still persisting or not.
