Operation and Maintenance Terminal
An MO does not necessarily have a one-
to-one relation with a physical unit in the
RBS, and the MO comprises either both
hardware and software or software only.
Passive RU
An RU with a very low level of
intelligence. It is independent of the
processor system and has no connection
for O & M communication.
RU
The smallest unit that can be handled on
site or in a repair center. Information
about the RU can be retrieved via OMT or
BSC.
Spare Bits
A number of additional bits for spare use
in a timeslot 0 multiframe structure. This
is defined in /G. 704/. The use of these
bits is defined by the customer.
Sub-RU
A sub-replaceable unit is always
connected to a superior Main RU. This
connection is used for retrieval of
equipment information. A Sub-RU
normally does not have a processor.
Timeslot 0
The timeslot 0 multiframe structure is
defined in /G. 704/.

Functions
28.3.1
User Interface
The OMT provides an easy-to-use graphical user interface. Well-known
hardware units and functions, for example a transmitter, appear as
graphical objects. There are a number of operations attached to each
graphical object, for example for retrieving information about it.
The user interface is based on a number of views. Each view contains a
set of objects, chosen so that the natural work flow of the user is
supported.
For user convenience there is an on-line help facility in the OMT.

available in the OMT:
•
