BTS3606/BTS3606A Local Upgrade Guide

By FTP

1. Upgrading BTS3606 through Local FTP

This approach is to connect a portable computer directly with the BCKM Ethernet port of the
BTS3606 through crossover cables.
The FTP client software refers to the one carried by Windows operating system. Therefore, a
portable computer installed with Windows 98, Windows NT, Windows 2000, or Windows XP must carry
this software.

1.1.

Settings Laptop IP Direction

The local IP address of the BCKM is 172.16.16.16 by default. You only need to set the IP
address of the portable computer to a specified IP address in the same network segment with the
default IP address.
For example, set the IP address of the portable computer to 172.16.16.15, and the subnet mask
to 255.255.255.0.

Figure 1-1 Configuring IP Direction of Laptop.

Getting Upgrade Files

a) Get the files from a BTS Upgraded like BTS Test in BSC Room. Connect the portable computer
with the BTS and run Telnet.

Start > Run> telnet 172.16.16.16

> User name: system
> Password: system
HW CBTS>opnday (This command enable to complete the commands when you write).
HW CBTS>str cbts

Figure 1-2 Opening TELNET.

b) Make the folder C:/>BTSUPGRADE; (Figure 1-3 ).

BTS3606/BTS3606A & BTS3606E/BTS3606AE Local Upgrade by FTP

Figure 1-3 Folder BTSUPGRADE.

c) Go into the folder created

Start > Run > cmd
Change the directory in use to C:/>BTSUPGRADE
(You can use the commands: cd.. and cd btsupgrade). Figure 1-4.

d) Run FTP in the folder created

BTS3606/BTS3606A & BTS3606E/BTS3606AE Local Upgrade by FTP

C:/>BTSUPGRADE> ftp 172.16.16.16
>User (172.16.16.16(none)): system

Upgrading Files in BTS

You must upgrade the BTS from the end. Any modification of the protocol between
boards leads to communication interruption, as well as upgrade failure of end boards. If
you upgrade the BTS from the end, even if protocol modification results in
communication interruption after upgrade, communication recovers as long as the
upgrade of the previous level completes. Therefore, upgrade the BTS3606/BTS3606A in
the following sequence:
CMTR-> CCPM-> CECM-> BCIM-> BCKM
The recommended sequence of loading board software on the BTS3606E is:
CMTR -> CRDM -> CCPM -> CECM -> BCIM -> BCKM
The recommended sequence of loading board software on the BTS3606AE is:
OMTR -> CRDM -> CCPM -> CECM -> BCIM -> BCKM

Note: Although this is the recommendation in the practice the sequence is as follow:
BCKM -> cbts.cfg -> CMTR or OMTR -> CRDM -> CCPM -> CECM -> BCIM

You must upgrade the FPGA prior to the CPU for each board.

In the Software Version Configuration table, the CMTR, CRDM, CCPM, and CECM
contain logic (FPGA) and software (CPU), but the BCIM (QC51BCIM and QC52BCIM)
and BCKM only contain software (CPU).

Note:
Start the version reversion from the lowest level and observe the following sequence:
CMTR-> CCPM-> CECM-> CDRM-> BCIM-> BCKM
You must perform version reversion on the CPU prior to the FPGA for each board.

BTS3606/BTS3606A & BTS3606E/BTS3606AE Local Upgrade by FTP

The version mapping relation is specified in software. The logic of higher version is
matched with the software of lower version, while the logic of lower version is
mismatched with the software of higher version.

1.4.

Upgrade Procedure

a) Logging into FTP Client and Telnet:

Repeat the previous steps from a) to e)

b) Upgrading BCKM
BCKM Software (CPU)
Execute this command to download the BCKM software to the BCKM Board:
ftp> put bckm.cpu

Execute this command to activate the BCKM software (suppose the BCKM ID is 0):
ftp> li act bckm.cpu 0

Execute this command to query upgrade results. This command can be executed for
many times:
ftp> li result
Note:
When this board is activated is necessary restart the FTP and Telnet connection.
Figure 1-9.
ftp> quit
C:\>BTSUpgrade> ftp 172.16.16.16

Figure 1-9 Activating BCKM Software.

c) Delivering Configuration File for BTS3606

You must deliver configuration file for the BTS3606 before continue upgrading it.
Otherwise, the BCKM fails to locate the CMTR.
Through the FTP, you can upgrade the BTS even the baseband subrack board is not
configured, but the CMTRs must be configured.
You need do first the script of the BTS and do it some changes:
1. Open the file cbts.cfg with a text editor.
2. Copy the header of this file in the Script file.

BTS3606/BTS3606A & BTS3606E/BTS3606AE Local Upgrade by FTP

Header

Figure 1-10 Header in the file cbts.cfg.

3. Do not write comments in the script and left one line blank between commands.
4. Change the name of the Script file to cbts.cfg and save it in the folder:
C:/>BTSUPGRADE

5. Download the file to the BTS:

ftp> put cbts.cfg
6. Active the software:
ftp> li act cbts.cfg
7. Ask by results:
ftp> li result
Execute this command to view upgrade results. If the final result is SOFT ACTIVE
SUCCESS, you can continue with the others boards.

BTS3606/BTS3606A & BTS3606E/BTS3606AE Local Upgrade by FTP

Figure 1-11 Activating cbts.cfg file.

8. In Telnet you can check the BTS Configuration with the command:
HW CBTS> dsp cbtscfg

BTS3606/BTS3606A & BTS3606E/BTS3606AE Local Upgrade by FTP

Figure 1-12 BTS Configuration.

9. In Telnet you must run the command:

HW CBTS> str cbts
10. After this, the BTS start again with the new configuration, and we need reloggin in FTP:
ftp> quit

Figure 1-13 Reloging FTP Services.

Note: If the script has some inconsistent commands, the software will not activate.

Cbts.cfg
Figure 1-14 Example of cbts.cfg

BTS3606/BTS3606A & BTS3606E/BTS3606AE Local Upgrade by FTP

Do not put the command: sav cbtscfg in the script because this command needs
communication with the BAM.

d) Upgrading CMTR
CMTR Logic (FPG)
Currently, the logic software of the CMTR falls into three types: one for the QCK1CMTR,
other for the QCK2CMTR and the other one for the QCKM1OMTR.

QCK2CCPM (CSM5000 chip, support 6 sector carriers at maximum)
QCK3CCPM (CSM6700 chip, support 12 sector carriers at maximum)
For two types of CCPMs (QCK1 and QCK2), their CPU software is mutually compatible,
but their logic software is not compatible. You can query the PCB version information to
distinguish them.
