Using the deployment tool 63
Do not select a cell edge that has an RSSI reading of less than 6.
However, keep the following in mind.
•
There can be environments that cause poor tone at a RSSI meter
reading of between 7 and 10. In this case, contact Nortelsupport team
for assistance.
• The tone stops after the radio link is lost.
Handset tones interpretation
The handset tones indicate how close the handset is to the deployment
tool basestation.
• Steady tone – the handset is within the cell boundary, or at the cell
boundary edge.
• Tone change, tone breakup, modulation, mute or click – the handset is
beyond cell boundary edge.
