Online Monitoring in a Network

You can use the Protocol Tester and E1/DS1 interface boards (PRIMO) to
test the signalling in the following type of situations:

H In mobile networks at A

bis

interfaces between base station controller

(BSC) and base transceiver station (BTS) or at A interfaces between
mobile switching center (MSC) and base station controller (BSC)

H In fixed networks between switching systems or between subscriber

and switching system.

Preliminary Steps

1. Connect the Protocol Tester’s PRIMO interface boards to the

measuring sockets of the data line, using the appropriate cables.

The interfaces on the PRIMO boards are 9-pin Sub-D sockets (refer to
the previous chapter, section Connecting to the data line and to
Appendix A, Section E1/DS-1 Interface Board).

2. Switch the device on.

The operating system boots automatically (refer to the previous
chapter, section Switching on the K1297). The K1297-G20 Monitor
application is started automatically.

The

Status Window

shows status messages for the individual

modules. If the modules boot without errors, the message “boot OK”
will be displayed.
