Service Order File
A service order file is generated by the SAM (Service Activation Module) of
the BeamPlex Element Management System. The service provider inputs
customer data into the SAM for each BRU-100 subscriber.
BRU-100
For a BRU-100 installation, you must also download a service order file for
each subscriber who will receive an installation on the pending service
trip. This file contains the subscriber’s latitude and longitude estimated
coordinates and the coordinates of the closest base stations. This data is
retrieved when you enter the customer number in Step 4 of the installation
procedure. The customer number is the numeric part of the service order
file name. For example, service order file
SO_567891.xml
denotes a customer
number of 567891.
BRU-150
A service order file may not exist for a subscriber with a BRU-150. You will
need a file only if you have to perform a manual installation. In this case,
there is a default service file included with installation tool that can be
used. Its file name is
SO_1467854.xml
and it is in the same directory in the
service computer as the installation tool files.
Edit this default file to change the following data:
–
BSOC (base station offset code) – The remote unit uses this code to
identify a base station.
–
Base station coordinates – The latitude/longitude coordinates of the
three closest base stations in your service area.
Note
:
You must obtain the BSOC and coordinates from the engineers
that configured the base station.
This XML file can be easily edited with a text editor, such as the Notepad
or Wordpad applications that come standard with Windows operating
systems.
A portion of the service order file as read by a text editor is shown in
on page 16. The file contains data on three base stations.
