## Test Procedures

The following test-procedures ensure the proper functionality of the exchange.

### Extension lines

This test verifies that the extension lines and the telephones are connected and working.

The boards involved are:

- ELU-A
- ELU-C
- ELU-D

#### Digital Telephones with/without display

Digital telephones can be connected to either ELU-D or ELU-C boards.

##### Start of test:

1. Activity: Go to a telephone with display.
2. Activity: Read the display.

- Check: Does the telephone show the correct extension number?

1. Activity: Lift the handset.

- Check: Does a dial tone sound?

1. Activity: Call an extension nearby and wait for it to ring. Pick up the other telephone and check for speech connection. Then hang up both phones.

- Check: Have all extensions been tested? If the answer is yes go to position 6.

1. Activity: Go to next telephone and continue with position 2.
2. End of test.

#### Analogue Telephones

Analogue telephones are connected to an ELU-A board.

To test proceed similar to the digital telephones.

### Trunk lines

The test is designed to verify the connection between ASB 150 02 and the public exchange and the equipment for call metering is verified at the same time

The following functions are to be verified:

- digit transmission
- detection of external dial tone
- voice transmission
- detection of incoming call signal
- call metering

The boards involved are:

- BTU-A
- BTU-A2
- BTU-B
- BTU-C
- BTU-D
- BTU-E

#### Preparations

- Use RASC to read out the individual number of the trunks connected to the system
- Connect a system telephone with display (A), to any line in the MDF.
  The telephone is permitted to initiate calls via all trunk lines
- Connect a system telephone with display (B), to any line in the MDF. This telephone shall be programmed as answer position for incoming calls via all BTU boards.

For the tests, it is desirable that the trunk lines have individual call numbers in the public exchange.

If this is not the case, a line can be selected by seizing all lines with the exception of the two used for each test.

##### Start of test:

1. Activity: A goes off hook.

- Check: A receives dial tone.

1. Activity: A dials individual number of relevant trunk line.

- Check: A receives dial tone from public exchange.

1. Activity: A dials individual number of relevant trunk line in public exchange.

- Check: B receives external ring signal.

1. Activity: B answers.

- Check: A-B speech connection established.

1. Activity: A and B goes on hook.

- Check: None.

1. Activity: None.

- Check: Have all trunk lines been utilised for both incoming and outgoing calls? If yes, go to position 8, otherwise go to position 7.

1. Activity: Select next trunk line. Then go to position 1.

- Check: None.

1. Activity: None.

- Check: Verify that all metering pulses have been registered on the trunk line meters on the BTU-boards by using the telephone.

1. Open all trunk lines that were seized.
2. End of test.

### VMU-boards

#### Preparations for VMU-D

To avoid losing information in case of power failure, the VMU-D board should be equipped with a battery, RNV 991 942/001, connected to connection field 4. See Installation Instruction (1531‑BDV 113 08 Uen).

#### Preparations for VMU-HD (hard disk)

When upgrading or replacing the VMU-D with a VMU-HD see Upgrading or exchanging boards for instructions. The hard disk used on the VMU-HD is a standard PCMCIA interface hard disk type III with a storage capacity depending on the system demand.

Do not use a VMU-D and a VMU-HD in the same system. When replacing the VMU-D in the same board position with a VMU-HD follow instructions in Upgrading or exchanging boards. If the VMU-HD is placed in another position use RASC to update both card positions.

The following DOS directories must be created on this hard disk (use a PC):

    \Info0    \message2    \anno0
    \Info1    \message3    \anno1
              \message4    \anno2
              \message5    \anno3
                            :
                           \annoF

##### RASC menu for handling VMU-HD data files

The menu VMU-HD Dumping/Loading is located under OTHER. If files are already stored on the hard disk this utility lists all available files on the screen.

With the ID button select the directory on the PC in which RASC has to search and list the VMU-HD data files. Then select by using the space bar the appropriate files to copy to the VMU-HD hard disk or delete them.

Printing: use the F4 key to make a file list printout.

Copying: select the files, press F8 to copy. Type the drive and directory. Prompts will be given if the directory is not available and should be created. Also if the file already exists to overwrite it.

Before starting to record, change by using the following commands to higher values as the storage capacity has been extended.

##### Commands

4302 |  | change from default value 12 seconds to 25 seconds

4303 |  | change from default value 12 seconds to 25 seconds

Note

Customer announcements can not be moved from a VMU-D to a VMU-HD. Note the contents before upgrading with the new board.

#### Test of VMU-_ board

This test verifies the proper function of the VMU-(H)D board(s).

##### Start of test:

1. Activity: Press the button named INFO on a telephone with display.

- Check: None.

1. Activity: Choose the function LEAVE.

- Check: None.

1. Activity: Choose the function VOICE.

- Check: None.

1. Activity: Speak.

- Check: None.

1. Activity: Choose the function PLAY.

- Check: Verify that what you have said at position d is repeated by the telephone.

1. Activity: Have all VMU-board(s) been tested? If yes go to position 7.
2. End of test.

Note

When VMU-(H)D board(s) is (are) activated, the green LED will be lit.

### Cordless

Verify that the wiring to the Base Stations is correct.

#### Visual Checks

The power LED on every Base Station should be ON. The LEDs on the IC-CU and IC-LU boards should be OFF.

Note

Every Base Station accessible by persons other than trained personnel must have the cover mounted.

#### Test of the cordless

With the aid of the INTEGRATED CORDLESS SYSTEM MANAGER verify that the correct programming has been performed and using the systems menu check the status of the boards and Base Stations. The following test verifies the proper function of the INTEGRATED CORDLESS system.

##### Start of test:

1. Activity: Use a DT360 (or DT310) and dial an extension with display near by.

- Check: None.

1. Activity: Check that the correct calling extension number is displayed and pick up the ringing phone.

- Check: If voice connection has been established.

1. Activity: Put both telephone sets on hook.

- Check: None.

1. End of test

#### Radio Coverage Checks

The radio coverage verification consists of two tests:

- Base Station test,
- Area coverage test.

##### Start of Base Station test

The purpose of this test is to check if all Base Stations are operational.

1. Put a portable in the Service Display mode (refer to the Fault Tracing (1545-ASB 150 02 Uen).
2. Take ground plan (map) of the building where the Base Stations are indicated with their corresponding Base Station number.
3. Move close to each Base Station and check that the portable locks to it (the Service Display should display the correct Base Station number).

After having checked that all Base Stations are operational proceed with the area coverage test.

##### Start of Area Coverage test

The purpose of this test is to verify that there is satisfactory field strength to enable good speech quality everywhere within the covered area (rooms, elevator shafts, staircases). This test is executed with two portables and requires two persons.

1. Place the portable in the Service Display mode and call the other portable. One user of the portable should now start moving around the covered area. Both users must check that a good speech quality is maintained everywhere. Special attention should be paid to areas such as edges of the building and areas behind metal structures where there is a possibility of reduced speech quality.
2. Mark areas where RQI is not stable on 20hex and where cracking sounds or mutes are heard. A further Base Station should be installed in this area.

#### Portable Checks

This test checks for each portable the complete connection from system board to PABX. Furthermore it checks that the portables' numbers have been correctly programmed. The test is performed by calling all portables from one and the same portable.

1. Put all portables together in order of extension number on a table.
2. Go off-hook with each portable and check that the dial tone is heard.
3. Call with a portable (portable A) all other portables sequentially and check that the portable with the corresponding number on its display rings when called.
4. Call portable A and check if it rings.

#### Feature Enabling Control Unit (FECU)

On cold start the IC-CU recognizes whether a FECU is connected and how many portables are allowed to be connected to the cordless. The FECU must not be unplugged during operation as after a certain time out only the first 8 portables are recognized (default value).

##### To up/down grade:

1. save configuration by RASC menu ’Transfer to file’
2. replace FECU
3. invoke warm start (manually or by RASC)
4. update HW configuration in RASC (off-line mode)
5. update the RP configuration (online mode)
6. IC-CU reports new amount of portables
7. recover initial configuration.

### CPU-D(_)

Possible connections to CPU-D(_) are:

- lowest V.24 (Used by RASC) and on CPU-D(_) two additional ports for applications are available
- audio input
- temperature probe inputs

##### Feature Enabling Control Unit

The CPU-D4 recognizes whether a FECU is connected and which application is enabled. The FECU must not be unplugged during operation (only the basic functionnality is available without FECU) as the system checks periodically its presence. This might cause a slight delay after plugging in until the FECU is detected.

#### Test of V.24

If a connection can be established by RASC and a PC connected to CPU-D(_) then the V.24 is working. Otherwise use a data line tester to check for communication faults.

#### Test of temperature probe input

##### Start of test:

1. Activity: Read the temperature on a telephone.

- Check: Verify that the temperature is correct.

1. End of test.

### System clock

Set the correct time and day by using the RASC maintenance program and verify it on the display of a digital telephone set.

### Handling/exchanging boards while the system is in operation

While the exchange is in operation an upgrading by new boards (system expansion) or replacment of boards with the same configuration is supported. Care must be taken to extract and replace the board without metal parts touching adjacent boards and thus causing a short circuit. This may permanently destroy electronic components on the board being extarcted or boards remaining in the system. Use RASC to verify whether the system logged the board replacement.

### Upgrading or exchanging boards

When upgrading or replacing boards e.g.the VMU-D with a VMU-HD. Use RASC to take the old board out of system evidence and replace it with the new board.

1. Switch the system OFF and take out the board and then switch ON again to start up the exchange. Start RASC and perform board update to remove board from system. Then switch OFF exchange.
2. Insert VMU-HD and switch ON the exchange. Use RASC to perform board update.

The same procedure applies when replacing a subequipped board with a standard one.

### CTI

#### Installation on Novell® Netware server

Note

All activities on a customer server have to be carried out by a qualified and authorized network administrator. Ericsson cannot be held responsible for failure, inoperability or unavailability of the server nor for hardware incompatibility.

To enable this function please verify that Novell® 3.x or 4.10 or higher has been installed properly on the Network.

Check that the server is installed correctly and that Novell’s®Telephony Services is loaded.

The following load instruction will be performed automatically in the next release:

Load module aiocomx and choose which serial communication board is to be used by loading the module with a suitable syntax using command:

    load aiocomx port=___ int=_

The hardware of the serial COM port must offer the capability of transferring data with 19.200 baud (this should be possible if the board uses the IC 16550).

Install the BP250drv.nlm and load it by using command:

    load bpdrv

To make sure that the server activates this application during start-up add the two commands stated above to the autoexec.ncf on the server.

Verify that the users are registered for log on to the server. Use TAdmin to register the users for Telephony Services.

#### Setting with RASC

Verify that the cable connection from the COM port to the V.24 port of the CPU-D_/Aux_ is attached. Then enter RASC using:

- command 8901 which V.24 port is active
- command 6006 set to 11
- command 6007 set to 1 (US-ASCII)
- command 6009 set to 9600 baud
- command 6010 set to 1 (slave)
- command 6011 set to NO
- command 6012 set to CTI.

#### Installation on client PC

Install the Telephony Services for clients (necessary to provide the application with the CSTA.dll to establish communication). Refer to the Novell® handbook.

Verify that the users are registered for log on to the Telephony Services. Then log on to the telephony server.
