RBS 6000 Commissioning Procedure PA1
RBS 6000 Commissioning Procedure PA1
1 Introduction
This document describes step-by-step instructions for integration of a RBS 6000 series.
2 Objective
This document serves the purpose of describing the procedure related to the
Commissioning and integration of a RBS 6000 series. This first version will concentrate on the
RBS 6201, the indoor macro version.
3 Prerequisites
Complete RBS carry-in, installation, and check power system.
4.2 Software
The latest RBS Software Packages BP_CXP102083%10_R6T.
4.3 Hardware
Ethernet crossover RJ45 to RJ45 cable for RBS-Thin Client connection (Ethernet).
Serial RS-232C, RJ45-Dsub9 cables for RBS-Thin Client connection.
5 Configuration
In this document the following notation is used for commands.
$ te▲log▲read
This would mean that you should enter ’te’ <space key> ’log’ <space key> ’read’
and then press <enter key>. $ appears when you open a serial connection and
press the return key.
5.1 Prepare for Integration.
5.2 Check Miscellaneous Equipment (i.e. TMA/RET)
5.3 No alarm on transmission equipment (If Applicable).
5.4 Cabling between the Thin Client and RBS: Ethernet connection is made from the
laptop to LMB connector on the DUL interface on the RBS6201.
5.5 Connect serial cable to LMA connector on the DUL interface of the eNodeB RBS 6201
5.6 Thin Client IP Address Change (see section 7)
5.7 Check Serial Connection (HyperTerminal/Putty)
Right click on the Local Area Connection icon and select <Properties> from
the drop down menu.
The "Local Area Connection Properties" window will open.
Select Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) and click on <Properties>
The following window opens.
Note: this is the default setting for PC, and it should be returned to this at the end of
the procedure.
NB! You can avoid this setting if your PC get routing info from eNB. Check this by open an MS-
DOS window (Run… from Start menu on your PC and cmd). If you get the following routing
information when writing the command ipconfig in the MS-DOS window, you can proceed
without setting the IPv4 address:
The Laptop PC IP Address is set in this window using the following process,
NOTE: The IP address of the Laptop PC (thin client) cannot be the same as
the Ethernet IP address of the RBS node.
Networking convention dictates that the commissioning laptop (thin client) address
is equal to the RBS Node Ethernet address incremented by one.
9. When installing for Netcom Rollout do following settings in the Configuring files data
window:
10. When you have stepped to the window for Product information (stepping by using the
next button), take a picture of the label of the RBS6201 located at the bottom and in the
middle of the front of the cabinet. Than you can zoom to be able to read the numbers.
See example below:
11. Now you can start the integration by clicking “Start Integration”. NB! The eNB will restart
after 25% of the configuration is done, NB! DON’T HAVE ANY WIRELESS DEVICE
ACTIVA ON YOUR PC DURING THE INTEGRATION!
12. Contact NOC at Telia Sundsvall and check if they have contact with the site and
everything is OK.
8 Formatting the RBS 6000
This step requires a serial connection to the DUL NB! Specific pinconfig of the RS232
connector. See pinlayout on own sheet.
HyperTerminal or Puttyl serial terminal software (Go to Section 17.1 for
HyperTerminal Setup Instructions Go to Section 17.2 for Putty
7.1 Note: As detailed in this procedure the RBS 6000 will be placed into a BACKUP
mode, this is an 'idle' mode where the RBS is in a state where it is not in service
or executing any of its own processes.
Force the RBS into BACKUP mode using the commands in the serial window
below,
$ reload▲- -
The expected response that will be contained in the serial window is “Stop due
to remain in backup set”
Now format the RBS hard disks using the following commands, responding with
Y when prompted to continue. Note: All data on the hard disk will be
destroyed.
$ formathd▲/d Y
$ formathd▲/c2 Y
Once the second format command has completed enter the following command
$ reload▲- -
The expected response that will be contained in the serial window is “Stop due
to remain in backup set”
7.2 With the RBS 6000 in the “BACKUP” mode, proceed to the next section to set the
RBS 6000 Ethernet IP address, using the following format.
$ ifconfig le0 <RBS IP_address>
e.g. $ ifconfig▲le0▲169.254.1.10 (169.254.1.10 is the standard address for the eNodeB
when delivered from NPC (Node Production Centre)
Verify the IP address that has been input by using the following command, the
reply will show the IP address information that has been set. If the information is
incorrect set the IP address again. Example printout following the 'ifconfig' command.
$ ifconfig le0
ip-address: 169.254.1.10 subnetmask: 255.255.0.0 broadcast: 169.254.255.254
Do reload now and eNB should come up with basic_cv. The distribution of SW take a
couple of minutes and the following status shows that it is ready:
7.3 Specify the customer provided password for access to the RBS node with
the following commands in the serial window. Not Relevant at this time.
$ passwd
$x
$x
$ reload
Confirm that the folder structure displayed on the left side and the right side are
9.2 From the “Connect To” dialogue box select the serial port that will be used to
connect to the Node B from the “Connect using:” drop down i.e. “COM1” then
click the “OK” button
9.3 From the “COMx Properties” window i.e. COM1 set the following values:
Bits per second: 9600
Data Bits: 8
Parity: None
Stop bits: 1
Flow control: None
After the values are enter click on “OK” hit the “Enter key and you should receive
a prompt
9.4 To save the settings select “File”→”Save As”
9.5 From the “Save As” dialogue box select “Desktop”, input the file name i.e. “Node
B” and click the “Save” button.
9.6 The next time Hyper Terminal is required for the Node B configuration just double
click the icon on the Desktop
10 PUTTY for Serial connection
10.1 Set Putty to serial connection:
4. When connected to 4G and with internet connection run from browser window:

4. Take a picture from the result (snipp or equal) and past into the sheet 2, 3 and 4 in the test
report for each sector. Fill out page 1 of the test report with adequate information.
