file. It can help user fix the problem of UE.

Support diversity test scheme user defined to meet using in special environment.

User can modify fault-tolerance and judement scheme of predefined test case. Antenna

connection type and channel environment can be configured flexibility.

Suppport user defined test case.

Guided by development manual, user can establish different procedure, signaling parameter

and test case by invoking basic process function, and special control function, special

algorithm, which meet user’s special test/debug requriment.

Please do not use repaired fuses or short-circuit fuse seat to prevent from electric shock and fire.

Voltage Matching

Ensure that the instrument setting is matching with line voltage before power on, and install the

proper fuse with security measures. Please refer to the Safety Symbols which is about the

symbols outside of the instrument.

Instrument Grounding

To minimize the risk of electric shock, the rack and housing of instrument must be connected

with electrical grounding protection terminals. The instrument must be connected with AC power

through an earthling cable which must be firmly connected with electrical connecting side

(safety grounding) of power plug. It might result in potential risk of electrical shocking if

interrupted any earthling protection conductor or disconnected any grounding protection

terminals.

No disassemble to the instrument shell

The operator can not disassemble the instrument shell. Any parts of internal instrument can be

only replaced and adjusted by the professional maintenance staff. Once have any damages or

dysfunctional signs, stop operation immediately and wait for professional maintenance staff to

repair.

No operation in explosive environment

Do not use the instrument in the environment of existing flammable gases or fog.

5. SP8200 and SP6200 Integrated

System

5.1. System Introduction

5.1.1. System Overview

Along with the development of LTE product, the SP8200 and SP6200 integrated

system is established on the unit platform. SP6200 is integrated on SP8200. SP8200

control the operation of SP6200 and SP8200, dispatching of the two system. SP8200

displays the Log information of the test case of SP8200 and SP6200 at the same time.

User can edit the test plan of SP8200 and SP6200 on SP8200, and the test case of

SP8200 and SP6200 can run in the meantime, so the RRM test of TD-SCDMA and

LTE test can be done separately meanwhile, multi UE can be connected at the same

time.

The SP8200 and SP6200 system is composed of software and hardware which is

shown as Table5-1:

5.2. Function Introduction

SP8200 and SP6200 integrated system uses the interface of SP8200, by means of Mouse and

Keyboard to control the whole system, the main functions of this system are adding test plan of

SP6200 to SP8200 and adding interface of running test case.

SP8200 uses list to manage test suit and test plan. The new main functions of

SP8200 and SP6200 integrated system are in Table5-2：

5.2.1. Test Plan Management

SP8200 list all the test case of SP8200 by tree structure, which classify by the feature of test case.

User edit test plan by choosing test case.

SP6200 uses the same interface as SP8200, and the same way of editing test plan. As the separate

test suit, the test cases of SP8200 and SP6200 are separate, which can not display on the same

interface at the same time. The interface of opening the test suit is shown as below：

Figure 5-2 Test plan editing window

User edit the test plan of SP8200 or SP6200 separately, then save the test plan separately, and

display the test plan on the test suit managing interface. The interface of editing test plan is

shown as below:


58

Figure 5-3 Test plan editing interface

After the test plan saved, the test suit’s label of SP8200 and SP6200 seprately display on the test

suit managing interface, which is shown as below；

Figure 5-4 Display of added Test plan interface


59

5.2.2. Test Case Runnning Window

Test case running window mainly discrib the status of test case running, times of running test

case, display status information of test case. SP8200 manage test case running window by TAB,

each TAB page manage test case running window separately. All the test cases share Log

window and MSC window. After adding SP6200, a TAB manage test case running window, Log

window, MSC window. For each test case there is a separate window to support outputting test

case information. Test case running window is shown as below：

Figure 5-5 Test case running interface

In the figure，the blue part is the lable of TAB, below the TAB is the test plan window, Which

displays the basic information of all the test cases in the test plan.

OUTPUT window is the test case running information list. While the test case running, the

OUTPUT window displays the process information in real time.

The MSC window is on the right, which display the sequence diagram of primitive while test

case running, the time of sending primitive and the time of receiving primitive. The Message

Info window displays the stream of information.

After adding SP6200 on SP8200, each TAB page is related to test plan list window, OUTPUT

window, MSC window. There are different window resource on SP6200 and SP8200,which

make the information output normally.

5.2.3. Parameter Configure

Open Parameter Config window in System menu, when select System Config sub menu, the

parameter of SP8200 can be edited, when 6200 Para Setting selected, the parameter of SP6200

can be edited.


60

The Syetem menu is shown as below:

Figure 5-6 System menu

Select PIS list and click Set.

Figure 5-7 Parameter configure window of SP6200

5.2.4. View Log Information

Both SP8200 and SP6200 have Log information, which is display in real time when test case

running. The Output window in TS Manager output the hyperlink of Log formation, which is

shown as below:


61

Figure 5-8 Hyperlink of Log file on TS Manager interface

SP8200 supplies Log Tracer to view communication of low layer in realtime. Log Tracer also

display UTRAN information and information stream.

Log information of SP6200 is the communication of low protocol stack, Message Analyzer

supplies the result and analyzed result of the log.

Log of SP6200 send to the formulate catalogue of PC though remote port, Message Analyser is I

integrated in SP8200 interface. It can open the log file which upload to local from remote port.

The interface of Message Analyser is shown as below:


62

Figure 5-5 Interface of Message Analyser

Message Analyser is used to open .msglog file.

SP6200 TC TRACER is used to analyze the Log file created by TTCN, TC Tracer is shown as

below:

Figure 5-6 Interface of TC TRACER


63

TC Tracer is used to open TTCN log file.

SP6200 remote log use network mapping, which map the local environment of SP6200 to PC of

SP8200.

SP8200 interface is added to display the REPORT link of SP6200, and SP8200 display the log of

each test case in OUTPUT window, REPORT file link. Which is shown as below:

Figure 5-7 Interface of SP6200 REPORT

6. Matters Need Attention

6.1. Operation Prohibited

The following operations may result in the display appears blank screen.

1. Cut off the power supply before the SP8300 instrument has been completely

turned off.

2. Press the Power button before the operating system has been properly shut down.

3. Plug or unplug the monitor's VGA cable before the SP8300 instrument has been

completely turned off.

4. Severe vibration of SP8300 instrument.

6.2. General Suggestions

Try not to replace the monitor frequently. If you do need to replace the monitor,

please turn off the SP8200 first.
