The following table gives the possible LEDs status.

The status of the LEDs is correct taken in account if the BSC is new and nodownload was done to CPRA-SYS. If the BSC is IT, the TCU terminating theTSL should be disabled (For rack 1: TCU(1), for rack 2: TCU(41), for rack3: TCU(81)).

Status Action

Lower LED (LED1) is blinking slow(300ms ON / 300 ms OFF)

TSCA is in B5 mode and needs to bemigrated

Lower 2 LEDs (LED1 and LED2) aretoggling (like TCU/DTC)

TSCA is in B5 mode and needs to bemigrated

Middle LED (LED2) is blinking slow(4 blinks ON, 1 skipped)

TSCA is in B6 mode and does notneed to be migrated

If after the LEDs check the TSCA board must be migrated continue withthe following steps.

2.8 Check BSC-TC Link (O2)

Apply the following procedures only if the TC is installed and connected atthe DDF on the BSC site.

2.8.1 Remove Ater Mux Loops

Remove the Ater Mux loops:

1. At the DDF on the BSC side, remove the loops for the Ater Mux PCMsconnected to the TC equipment. (See Site-Specific Information (Section1.2.2)).

2. Open the LMT Terminal application and connect the RS-232 cable to theLMT (COM).

2.8.2 Check Alarms on the ASMB Boards

For each ASMB board corresponding to the removed loop at the DDF:

1. Connect the serial cable to the board.

2. Follow the menu path:

Session -> ConnectThe message ’SM2M connection established’ appears.

2.9 Set and Check BSC - 9153 OMC-R Link

This procedure only applies if the BSC is linked to the 9153 OMC-R viathe X.25 network.

2.9.1 Connect Modem to CPRC Board

To connect the modem:

1. Connect the modem to the 25-way connector (reference 3BK 07784 GLAA)on the CPRC board C (subrack 8, slot 17).

On the modem, LEDs 103 and 104 must be ON.

On the CPRC C board, the top LED must be OFF.

2. At BSC Terminal, verify the alarms.

The Unsolicited Alarm Report should appear.

This message indicates that the X.25 link has been re-established.

2.9.2 Test the Communication Link

To test the communication link:

1. At the 9153 OMC-R site , ask the operator to check that the BSC - 9153OMC-R link is operational.

2. At the BSC site , check the X.25 SBL status.

The corresponding X.25 SBL is “IT”.

3. At the 9153 OMC-R site , perform a Software Audit of the BSS equipment.

Wait for the software audit report message.

4. At the 9153 OMC-R site , check for Communication Error Reports in the“BSS_xx Follow up” message window.

No communication errors must appear.

Do not switch OFF the main supply (48V) to the BSC when thecommissioning is done if the DC/DC converters with reference3BK07344AAAD02 have date code (serial number) after ZN0405XXXXXX.In case of mandatory customer requirement to switch OFF the (48V)supply of the BSC between the commissioning and the power OFF, theSystem-CPRC modules must be put in "transportation position" andthen the commissioning has to be partly re-done the day the power willbe re-established.

2.10 Before You LeaveBefore you leave, be sure to:

1. Close the doors of the racks.

2. Leave the site tidy.

3. Close the site and hand the keys to the key holder.

4. Make sure commissioning is finished and a copy of all reports from thecommissioning of the BSC equipment is left with the equipment on site.
