The name TESLA, when used by Nokia, is an acronym for TEst and
Service Locals Application. Tesla for Windows (i.e. WinTesla) is a
software package designed to operate in the Microsoft Windows
environment. The software package is made of two modules, the
Wintesla core module and a service software module. The Wintesla
module is similar to an operating system for various service modules. In
this way many Nokia products can be serviced using one common
software package.
Note: The Wintesla core module MUST be installed for ”any” service module to run.
Installing WinTesla On Your Hard Disk
The WinTesla core software is delivered on a 3.5” diskette and is
protected with a protection “key” (PKD–1), which must be attached to the
parallel port LPT 1 when the WinTesla service software is being used.
To install the WinTesla core software package, proceed as follows:
Insert the WinTesla Application diskette into drive A: of your PC.
From DOS ( NOT running windows ) type
A: INSTALL <Enter>
From Windows File Manager double click the mouse on
a:\install.exe

Common User Interface
Due to the modular design of WinTesla, various generations of Nokia
products can be serviced, while sharing a similar user interface. The
common user interface is explained in the first part of this document and
is followed by the specific module information.
The software can be used to control the phone by entering commands via
the keyboard of a PC/AT – running MS Windows 3.x /Win 95
This document refers to WinTesla Version 5.03 or greater.
Equipment Required
Computer : IBM 486 PC/AT or compatible with at least
one, unused serial port, COM1 or COM2 one parallel port
(LPT1), 5 Meg. hard disk space required.

: Any supported by MS Windows version 3.x/Win95
Operating System : DOS 5.0 or later running MS Windows
The software controls the phone via a separate adapter (DAU–6S)
connected to the serial port of the PC and to the phone’s bottom
connector using the Nokia proprietary communication method called
M2BUS.
Attach the protection key PKD–1 to parallel port one (25–pin female
D–connector) of the PC. When connecting the PKD–1 to the parallel port
be sure that you insert the PC end of the PKD–1 to the PC (male side).

Phone Independence
The WinTesla application, “WinTesla.exe”, is phone independent. It relies
on separate, phone specific, “modules” to provide communication, menus
and test algorithms.

Technical Documentation
Figure 3. WinTesla with loaded interfaces
For each phone type – or product family – a phone interface module and
menu module are required. The modularity of WinTesla allows support for
other languages, so one phone type may have one phone interface
module and several menu modules, all in different languages.
WinTesla allows you to select the language you wish to use (if available),
and will automatically load the correct phone interface module for the
connected phone. When a different phone type is connected, WinTesla
will load the new phone interface and associated menus.

Fault Log Application.
The aim of the Fault Log application is to provide NMP After Sales
Companies worldwide a standard method for the collection of Fault and
Repair Data from their service process’s. This information can also be
used by NMP R&D and Manufacturing organizations as well.
The Fault Log application can be regarded as a data entry sub–routine
run from the WinTesla Service Software package at the end of a repair.
This allows for quick and uniform recording of the service performed on
the product.
Each product repaired, will generate one unique record in a FaultLog file
consisting of up to 37 data fields containing information about the product
and how it was repaired. This information is read automatically where
possible, from the products own internal EEPROM and then entered
manually by the Service Technician to form a complete service record.
WinTesla Service Software
For more advanced implementations, the repair records are copied and
collected by the electronic mail system installed in the Service Center and
are sent electronically to a Central Service Database located in Finland.
Completing a FaultLog Record
Once WinTesla has been configured correctly it operates in the following
manner:–
Wintesla automatically reads the product details from the
products EEPROM and writes them as a record to a
pre–determined file.
Proceed with the repair task, utilising a combination of
software driven tuning and hardware modifications.
On completion of the repair task you have a choice:
6.A.)With the product still connected to the PC, manually display
the repair data entry screen by selecting Function Button F9.
7.B.) Alternatively, the product can be disconnected and the next
product for repair connected in its place.
So long as Automatic Prompting is enabled then the previous products
repair data entry screen will be displayed.
– Enter the repair work performed on the product in the repair
data screen.
Issue 2 06/98
– Check the automatic data for this product, read earlier, to
ensure its accuracy.
– When satisfied with the data, save the entry. This process
adds a complete record containing the product details and
the repair details to the FaultLog output file.
Page 17
NHA–3
WinTesla Service Software
The output file can then be manipulated by a number of different systems,
as required, as a detailed record of the product fault.
To attempt to record all of this information 37 data fields are defined for
each FaultLog record. These can be split as follows:–
– Product definition information fields
– Repair / fault information fields.
Most products have their information stored in EEPROM, WinTesla
automatically reads this information from the EEPROM and writes it to the
FaultLog record. This part of the record is shown below.

The Macro sub–menu can be accessed by selecting the

Macro’s in FaultLog are a set of standard repair actions defined and
stored in order to represent frequently repeated repairs. These Macro’s
are related to the Product Code of the product, so whatever product is
connected, FaultLog will display the Macro list for that particular Product
Code.
A Macro’s standard repair information can also be pasted into the
FaultLog record for that product.
Macro’s are saved initially under a name you can define yourself from the
