About this manual

1 About this manualThis manual is for the commissioning personnel. Commissioning prepares DX200 based network elements for integration testing and takes place afterinstallation and installation inspection. Commissioning completely tests thehardware and hardware database of the network element against the requirementsof the Site Documents.

Figure 1. The phases before and after commissioning.

1.1 Assumptions

The staff performing the commissioning should have a good knowledge of theDX 200 exchange and preferably previous experience in testing such anexchange. 'Exchange' is frequently used in this manual to refer to DX 200 basednetwork elements.

The recommended size of a testing group is two persons.

The exchange is tested at the factory (factory acceptance test, FAT); as a part ofthe commissioning, you must check that the software and hardware are the sameas that validated by the test. If new specification requirements are developed afteror during a factory acceptance test, you may need to update the programs or thehardware database before an integration test of the exchange can take place. Newsoftware will have to be loaded to both disk units and all computer units andtested.

To run a routine measurement.

Since the routine measurement uses both hard disks, make sure that disks are incorrect working state and that both disks contain an ASWDIR directory. TheROTEST process creates its own directories in the ASWDIR directory, e.g. aREPORT directory for COM00.REP and SLR00.REP, and ring buffer files.

You can, for instance, create directories using service terminal commands:

ZMCD:W0-/A/ASWDIR,65

ZMCD:W1-/A/ASWDIR,65

1. Check that there is an ASWDIR directory on both hard disks.

2. Create the routine measurement by entering the URC command.

For example, to measure the lines of group number 15 (possible values 0-15) every day between 8.30 p.m. and 7.00 a.m., type the followingcommand:

ZURC:MEAG=15:START=20-30,STOP=7-00:WEEK1=MON&&SUN;

When the measurement is completed, a measurement report is written out.

If the routine measurement fails, check the condition of faulty subscriberinterfaces again as described in the section Line Measurement.

Ref For more information on the use of UR command groupcommands, refer to the Subscriber Line RoutineMeasurement, Command Reference Manual.

Define a subset for subscriber line measurement

You can, for example, perform all measurements on the subscriber lines and printout the information on all the measured lines. In the example below, themeasurement group number is 10, the starting time of the measurement 8.30 p.m.,and no concurrently starting measurements have been defined for themeasurement group (i.e. you can omit the symbol for the alternativemeasurement).

ZURM:MEAG=10,START=20-30::OUT=ALL;

Define the subscriber hybrid test

You can define the subscriber hybrid test so that all the measured subscriber lineinterfaces will be printed out. In this example the measurement group number is10, the starting time 8.30 p.m., and no concurrently starting measurements havebeen defined for the measurement group (i.e. you can omit the alternativesymbol).

ZURH:MEAG=10,START=20-30:OUT=ALL;

7.6.5 Printing the routine measurement results

Print routine measurement results to a logical file using the UA commands.

1. Interrogate the identification data of existing buffered reports forsubscriber lines using the following UAI command. The identification datacontains measurement starting times and report group numbers needed inthe print command.

ZUAI:TYPE=SLR;

2. The results will be printed to a logical file. Make sure that the logical fileyou are using in the print command is connected to correct I/O device.

3. Print the results to a logical file (NAME=<name of the logical file>) usingcorrect start time and report group number:

ZUAP:TYPE=SLR:GROUP=7,START=20-30:NAME=PRINTQUE10;

Ref For more information on the use of UA commands, refer tothe Buffered Report Output Handling, Command ReferenceManual.

7.6.6 Line measurement

Measure subscriber lines using the UL commands.

Forced control does not start the measurement unless the subscriber status is free.The subscriber may have a semipermanent connection or the status is either busyor ringing - in this case an error message is printed out.

Inspecting the maintenance system

1. To measure a subscriber line at the logical position 0-5-17 using the defaultparameters (=all measurements), type:

ZULM:LP=0-5-17:::;

The print-out should resemble the one below:

DX 220 SITE_1_220 1995-10-10 09:44:48LOGICAL POSITION NUMBER

00-005-0170.0 0.0 -0.0 -0.0 +INF +INF +INF +INF +INF 2* 24 18

Where:

ACV A/G, B/G stand for alternating voltage A/B to earth.

DCV A/G, B/G stand for direct voltage A/B to earth.

RES A/B stands for resistance from A to B.

RES A/G, B/G stand for resistance from A/B to earth.

RES A/U, B/U stand for resistance from A/B to exchange voltage.

CAP A/B stands for capacitance from A to B.

CAP A/G, B/G stand for capacitance from A/B to earth.

* after a measurement result means that the value isoutside the accepted range.

+INF instead of a measurement value means that the valueexceeds the measurement scale.

Ref For a full account on the abbreviations used in the print-outs refer to the Subscriber Line Routine Measurement,Maintenance Manual.

2. Measure the subscriber line again, this time using the ULI command whichchecks the LIA10 plug-in unit on the measured line:

ZULI:DP=0;

The print-out is similar to the following:

ULI:DP=0;DX 220 PLAT1 1995-10-10 16:13:25

Inspecting the maintenance system

1. Type the AHO command:

ZAHO;

2. Find out the cause of the alarms.

3. Fix the alarms.

4. Often some alarms remain still in the alarm buffer. Remove them with thecommand ZACA and wait for 10 minutes. The important alarms willreappear and you can start resolving them.

Ref For more information on the use of AH command groupcommands, refer to the following manuals:Alarm Administration, Maintenance ManualAlarm History Handling, Command Reference Manual

7.7.2 Recovery

Check that no units in the exchange are in an abnormal working state

1. Enter the following USI command to check the working states:

ZUSI:ALL;

2. Turn OFF the power in the exchange for a minimum of 2 minutes.

3. When you are back in an MML session, check the working states of all theunits once more (use the same USI command as above). The working statesof the units should be the same as before the power break.

4. Check also that the same alarms are still on (use the AHO command).
