Start the Nokia 2G Flexi BTS Manager by clicking the icon on your desktop. The task selection view opens as shown below.
10.1 BTS SW Update
The first step of the commissioning is BTS SW Downloading/Update. This is necessary to align the current SW packet of the BTS with the new release BTS SW. It starts with selecting the “BTS SW” and followed by “SW update”
Then, we must browse and select the “header” or “master” file to start the download. The SW version BTSM4113.3A
Type of Document Guidelines - Number Revision Number
It is recommended to select the option “Forcé Download” to guarantee the downloading of all files of the new SW. If we don’t mark this option, only the changes in between versions will be downloaded (depending on the versions).
Press the “update SW”. The progress bar will help us to follow the process. Notice that FIREWALL SW running on PC could BLOCK the downloading. When the Download is finished, The BTS will restart and the PC automatically connect to the BTS. Multi Radio BTS doesn’t autodetect un-commissioned radio modules, thats the reason why only the system module appears on the screen.
ON-LINE commissioning is when you are physically connected to the BTS via your straight LAN cable.
Check ‘Force BTS Download All Application Files’

NOTE: 3g Commissioning file(XML) is needed to be downloaded into the 2g Flexi Multiradio BTS.
After restarting, we choose again “commissioning wizard” and then “Commission manually” to bring you to the Site Specific Information.
10.3 Site Specific Information
Type of Document Guidelines - Number Revision Number
Note that OPT1 is untick and your synchronization is also untick since your 3G BTS is your master. Note also that the RF module (FXDA) is already defined.
If DCS1800 is being used, then we need to add new RF chain for FXEA using OPT2.
10.6 Local Sector Settings
Since we hav Rx Sharing of FXDA (sector 4,5 & 6), the máximum allowable Carrier power is 60W. Since 3G BTS uses 40W carrier power already, our 2G BTS will now have a máximum of 20W carrier power to be used. It can be 10W depending on the RF plan. While your FXEA (sector 1,2 &3) will still have a máximum 60W carrier power since its not shared.
