3. GENERAL PRESENTATION
3.1. GENERALITIES
The TIL COAM is used during the installation phase of the BTS, in order to check
hardware and software status and to check equipment substitution or extension.
The TIL COAM is a Windows application, so all actions can be done with the left
button of the mouse, by clicking on a menu, on a radio button, or on a push button.
If in the title of an available function, a letter is underlined, the user can also use the
keyboard with the "underlined letter" keys to do this function (This is a Windows
standard functionality).
The TIL icon is in the Start Menu bar as per the path:
Start menu→Programs→Tml→ BTS Tools-→Til coam” version”→Til coam
The TIL icon for the Windows XP in the Start menu bar is as per the path:
Start menu -> All Programs -> Tml→ BTS Tools-→Til coam” version”→Til
coam
3.2. CONFIGURATION
The TIL COAM is a software package running on a windows machine under Windows
95/98/2000/NT/XP environment, including one standard Ethernet board and TCP/IP
protocol connectivity over the LAN to the CBCF/SBCF/CSWM/ICM/ECELL.
When using the "peer to peer" connection mode (described below), ensure that a
twisted pair cable is used between the PC and the BCF board.
Note: Check that an IP address and a network mask are defined in network
configuration panel on the PC.
3.3. CONNECTION MODES
3.3.1 USING NETWORK
You can run the TIL application on an Ethernet network, with the IP address of the
BCF board to open a TIL COAM session.
3.3.2 USING PEER-PEER
This connection mode is generally used in site installation because it is not necessary
to know IP address of the BCF board. With this mode, you need a twisted pair cable
and TIL application to establish the connection with the BCF board.
Note:
You should not use this mode with a network for establishing a TIL session.
If the operator uses the peer to peer connection mode on network, some boards
connected to the network would have the same IP address and it will be impossible to
All Purpose TIL COAM User Manual
PE/BTS/APP/0099 02.09/EN Preliminary 11/06/2007 Page 8/117
connect a TIL on these targets, unless resetting each board or flashing a different IP
on the BCF.

PE/BTS/APP/0099 02.09/EN Preliminary 11/06/2007 Page 9/117
3.4. BTS MODES
3.4.1 STANDALONE
In this mode, the BTS is not linked to the BSC and does not receive any message on
the Abis interface. At the end of the Standalone tests, the operator must disconnect
the TIL and reset the BCF board, to enable the BCF responds to Abis messages.
(Connected mode)
3.4.2 CONNECTED MODE
In this mode, the BTS is operational, linked to the BSC and may receive messages on
the Abis interface, during intervention with the TIL COAM.
The TIL can be connected and disconnected to the BCF, without disturbing the BTS.

chosen Alarm Configuration (or it’s absence if not chosen) and the
Configuration Reference (DLU) used by the BTS.
TIL application will check the consistency between the selected alarm
configuration file and the Configuration Reference (DLU) used by the BTS at
the start up. If not consistent, TIL will display a message prompting the user to
select the correct Configuration Reference (DLU) file in v16. In v17, TIL will
inform the user and selects the correct Configuration Reference(DLU) file. If
the user again selects the wrong Configuration Reference (DLU), TIL
application will not display Configuration Reference (DLU) information in the
title bar and no more validation is done.

3.5.2 CONNECTION MODES
STANDALONE
To establish the connection in Stand-alone mode any one of the following can
be adopted:
• The user may “Lock” the BTS sitemanager object at the OMC - R and
wait for the active BCF to come up, to establish the TIL connection, to display
the cabinet views.
• Without Locking the sitemanager object at the OMC - R, reset the
active BCF and launch the TIL application within few seconds, before the
active BCF comes up. There is a finite window of time opportunity, where TIL
presence may be detected by the active BCF board.
Note: If there is no BSC, it is not necessary to reset the BTS before launching
the TIL application.
CONNECTED
In connected mode, the TIL detects automatically that the BTS is connected to
the BSC. So, as soon as the connection with the BCF is established, the TIL
displays the cabinet view.

4. MAIN FUNCTIONS OF TIL
In both stand-alone and connected mode, the configuration BTS screen shows
the boards in the cabinet, associated to the BTS configuration:
The DRX/E-DRX type, the PA / ePA, the Frequency band Information (GSM
900, GSM 850, GSM 1800, GSM 1900, EGSM 900, RGSM etc), the Slave ID
info are displayed on the DRX buttons for all the BTS types.
The RM types, the TDMA, the frequency band information, the slave ID info is
displayed for BTS 18000/BTS 6000/BTS18000 MCPA/BTS18000 (R)ICAM/
BTS6000 (R)ICAM.
In Connected mode and only for BTS 18000/BTS6000/BTS18000 MCPA/
BTS18000 (R)ICAM/BTS6000 (R)ICAM, TIL will graphically display the
mapping between each configured Sector and its associated TDMA. A color-
coded frame around the related TDMA represents the sector to which the
TDMA belongs. Sectors can span across bays, the information about the
sectors spanned across the bays in indicated on the main MMI.
The TIL application automatically detects the sector configuration and the
BCCH carrying TDMA details at start-up. However, since sectors are
dynamically configurable, the user is provided with a mechanism to refresh the
information regarding the Sector and TDMA carrying the BCCH at any point of
time. The graphical representation is updated in accordance with the
information obtained from the BTS.
TIL graphically identifies per sector, the BCCH carrying TDMA. The choice of
BCCH carrying TDMA is configurable and is also subject to dynamic re-
allocations triggered by BSC Defense mechanisms. Consequently, the user is
provided a refresh option to enable the viewing of updated information.
In Connected mode and only for BTS18000/BTS 6000/BTS18000 MCPA/
BTS18000 (R)ICAM/BTS6000 (R)ICAM, TIL application displays the
Configuration Reference (DLU) that is being used by the BTS, provided there
are no inconsistency in the Configuration Reference (DLU) file selected by the
user and Configuration Reference (DLU) file used by the BTS. The
Configuration Reference (DLU) information provided is the Maximum possible
sector configuration.
