Configuring the EDGE Timeslots
1. Press Configure Timeslots > Timeslot Type > Custom.
2. Press
Configure Custom > Data > FIX4.
3. Press
1010 > Enter > Return > Return.
4. Press
Timeslot # > 1 > Enter.
5. Press
Configure Timeslots > Timeslot Type > Normal.
6. Press
Configure Normal > TS > TSC1 > Return.
7. Press
Timeslot Off On to On.
Configuring timeslot zero did not require a timeslot selection, because timeslot zero is the factory preset
timeslot selection. This is shown in step one where the timeslot type selection happened without first
selecting the timeslot number. Notice that a data selection (FIX4) was made for timeslot zero, but that none
was made for timeslot one. This means that timeslot one will use the default data selection of PN9.
Configuring GMSK Timeslots
1. Press Timeslot # > 2 > Enter.
2. Press
Timeslot Type > GMSK.
3. Press
Configure GMSK > E > PN Sequence > PN15.
4. Press
TS > TSC2 > Return.
5. Press
Timeslot Off On to On.
6. Press
Timeslot # > 3 > Enter.
7. Press
Timeslot Type > GMSK.
8. Press
Configure GMSK > E > Other Patterns > 32 1’s & 32 0’s.
9. Press
TS > TSC4 > Return.
10. Press
Timeslot Off On to On.
The GMSK timeslot selection provides a normal GSM timelsot. This is the same normal timeslot found in
the GSM modulation format.
