Service Software Instructions for RPM-1
General
WinTesla software is used to perform service functions of the RPM–1. This
SW consists of WinTesla service software and product specific DLL’s (Dynamically Linked Libraries). To run WinTesla SW, a parallel port software
protection device (PKD–1) has to be connected. TDF–4 box must connected
to PC as described in tuning instructions chapter . If only controls are necessary , RPM–1 can be controlled using equipment setup described in the WinT esla RS chapter . The test functions send test messages from PC to MS and
receive results and show them in the PC display . The messages to the phone
can be sent via DAU–9P cable.
Note: if this software is to be run on laptops, the power saving feature MUST
be switched off.
Hardware requirements for Windows 3.1x
The recommended minimum hardware standard to run Service Software is
any computer which is 386 33 MHz or greater with at least 4 MB of memory
and VGA type display (640 x 480). This assumes that only the WinT esla with
After Sales Support Modules is active, i.e. other Windows packages are not
running in the background.
Hardware requirements for Windows 95
The recommended minimum hardware standard to run Service Software is
any computer which has a Pentium processor, 8MB of memory and meets
HW requirements recommended by Microsoft.
Software Environment of the Support Modules
The Service Software user interface is intended for the following environments: Microsoft Windows 3.1x (enhanced mode) and Windows 95environment running in enhanced mode. Support for Microsoft NT may be added, if
required. Detailed information about Windows and application usage can be
found from the Microsoft Windows Version 3.1 Users Guide chapter one
(Windows Basics) and chapter two (Application Basics).
As an ordinary Windows application, the main idea in the user interface is
that selections are made with menus, push buttons and shortcut keys. Selections can be done by using keyboard and/or mouse. There is always a status
bar displayed at the bottom of the main window which contains information
about current actions.
Required Servicing Equipment
– Computer: At least IBM 80386 or compatible with one unused serial
port (COM1 or COM2)

PAMS Technical Documentation
– Operating System: DOS Version 3.2 or later
– If PCLStart in use: DOS 6.22 and IBM 80486 or compatible
– Display: Any 80–character text display
– Service software version for 3.5” disk (product code: 0774080)
The rest of the needed service equipment depends on what kind of operations service personnel wants to perform. Different configurations are described later in this chapter.
Note: A number of PC’s of an older generation use the Intel, National Semicon-

ductor, or United Microelectronics IC 8250 as the serial port UAR T. This is a comparatively
inefficient circuit for current purposes and does not necessarily support the M2BUS adapter
at 9600 baud. The newer UART’s NS16450 and NS16550AF of National Semiconductor
offer solutions for these problems.

Installation
Mechanical Connections
Caution: Make sure that you have switched off the PC and the printer
before making connections.
Caution: Do not connect the PKD–1 key to the serial port. You may
damage your PKD–1 !
The software controls the RPM–1 via a separate adapter connected to the
serial port of the PC, and to the JBS–23 bottom connector (DAU–9P cable).
Attach the dongle PKD–1 to the parallel port 1 (25–pin female D–connector)
of the PC. When connecting PKD–1 to the parallel port, be sure that you insert the computer side of the PKD–1 to the PC (male side). If you use a printer
on parallel port 1, install the PKD–1 between the PC and your printer cable.
PAMS Technical Documentation
The PKD–1 should not affect devices working with it. If some errors occur
(errors in printing are possible) please try printing without the PKD–1. If printing is OK without the PKD–1 please contact your dealer . W e will offer you a
new PKD–1 in exchange for your old one.
The program is delivered on a diskette and is copy protected by the PKD–1. It
must be present in parallel port when using Service software.
Installing the software on PC Hard Disk
The program can also be installed on the hard disk, which is recommendable
to obtain a maximum data access rate.
Keep the original diskette safe to enable upgrading of the program !
If you plan to use PCL Start service software, you must install it before instal-
ling Service software, see PCL Start installation instructions.
To install the new Service software program, follow the steps below:
1. insert the new Service software diskette
into drive A: of your computer

Common Properties of the User Interface
This chapter describes how the User Interface CLF must appear to the user .
The User Interface MUST be capable of being driven without the use of a
mouse, as the service engineer rarely has space on the bench to use a
mouse.
Login Dialog
When the Service Software application is invoked, by checking on the Service Software icon, the Login dialogue box will be displayed on the screen.

HW Test Module Extension
This chapter describes the special requirements of HW Test Module Extension of RPM–1.
General
This WinTesla product specific SW (RPM–1 HW) consists of two specific
DLL’s. HW Test Module Extension software is used to HW line testing and
CIS handling functions of the RPM–1. To run WinTesla SW, a parallel port
software protection device (PKD–1) has to be connected. All messages to
the phone are sent via PC’s PCMCIA controller.
Required Servicing Equipment
RPM-1
Service Software
–Computer: PC with 386 33MHz or higher processor, at least 8 MB of memory. VGA type display and PCMCIA slot.
–A parallel port software protection device (PKD–1).
–Intel PCIC (82365) compatible PCMCIA slot controller. Compatibility of the
controller can be checked in Windows 95 by the following way:
Choose from the Start–menu: Start–Settings–Control Panel–System–De-
vice Manager–PCMCIA Socket: ”PCIC or compatible PCMCIA controller
–JBS–23 connection with DAU–9P cable are not needed!

Login Dialog / Login Box
HW Test Module Extension differs from other RPM–1 service software so
that Faultlog is not used. Because of that user do not have to enter his faultlog user name in to the user Login ID edit box.
If you need to do any faultlog markings with HW Extension Module, please
use RPM–1 product specific DLL’s.
Main Window
When WinTesla opens the basic screen, HW Test Module specific DLL’s
must be activated using mouse to select Product –> Open and select RPM–1
HW. There appears ’Initialize PCMCIA’ window where you can press ’Help’
button for further information.
