2.9 Set and Check BSC - 9153 OMC-R Link

This procedure only applies if the BSC is linked to the 9153 OMC-R via the 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 - 9153 OMC-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 the commissioning is done if the DC/DC converters with reference 3BK07344AAAD02 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, the System-CPRC modules must be put in "transportation position" and then the commissioning has to be partly re-done the day the power will be re-established.

2.10 Before You Leave

Before 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 the commissioning of the BSC equipment is left with the equipment on site.
