Service Software
General
To run the After Sales SW, a parallel port software protection device
(PKD–1) has to be connected. TDF–4 box must connected to PC for
flashing purposes. The user can use PC–locals functions in modules for
testing NSW-6 mobile stations (MS). The test functions send test mes-
sages from PC to MS and receive results and show them in the PC dis-
play. The messages can be sent via M2BUS or FBUS.
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
WinTesla with After Sales Support Modules is active, i.e. other Windows
packages are not running in the background.
NSW-6
Service Software Instructions
Hardware requirements for Windows 95
The recommended minimum hardware standard to run Service Software
is any computer which has Pentium processor, memory 8 MB and meets
HW requirements recommended by Microsoft.
Software Environment of the Support Modules
The Service Software user interface is intended for the following environ-
ments: Microsoft Windows 3.1x (enhanced mode) and Windows 95envi-
ronment 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.

Note: A number of PC’s of an older generation use the Intel, National Semiconductor, or United
Microelectronics IC 8250 as the serial port UART. 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 phone via a separate adapter connected to the
serial port of the PC, and to the telephone’s M2BUS (DAU–9S).
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.
NSW-6
Service Software Instructions
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. We will offer
you a new PKD–1 in exchange for your old one.

Installing the Software on PC Hard Disk
The program is delivered on a diskette and is copy protected with a
dongle PKD–1. It must be present in parallel port when using Service
software.
The program can also be installed on the hard disk, which is recommended to obtain a maximal 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
installing Service software, see the 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
2. start Windows, and open File Manager

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.

A menu is broken down into sections that are indicated with menu separa-
tors. Each sections identifies a logical difference from itself and other sections, i.e. between transmitter and receiver. Any items that are required to be
added to a menu lists will be added on the bottom of the appropriate menu
section list. If a new item is to be added which is common to two or more
phone types, then that menu item will become a common menu item.
The menu lists will use the Microsoft [...] symbol after an item name to indicate that selecting that item will NOT initiate an operation immediately,
i.e. a dialog box will be displayed for the user to select options or type in
data and press the OK button before the operation is performed.

The standards Windows pointer will be used as the mouse cursor.
During time consuming tasks e.g. communication to phone, an hour glass
will be shown informing the user that a task is in progress. The application
uses the hour glass cursor to inform user that the application has taken
the control and any actions from user will be ignored.
When a function is initiated, the hour glass will be displayed and when the
function has finished the mouse pointer will return to normal.

The use of Radio buttons should be limited and carefully considered. The
use of radio buttons defines the number of possible choices available to
the user, which may be acceptable for one project, but not for another.
All buttons must be the Microsoft style of buttons.

the Yes button, but this will depend on the context of the dialog box that
the button is associated with.
(action) button:
Accepts and validates entered settings and values and closes
the dialog. If the values have not been changed, then no action
will be taken. The status bar will reflect the status. The user
should only be queried, if the settings or values accepted will

A greyed OK button indicates that settings selected by the user
are not acceptable.

Reporting Status
The status bar will be used to report the present status to the user. When
a feature is initiated, the status bar will be updated with a brief description
of the function. The status bar will also be updated at key points in a time
consuming function.
If an error is to be reported to the user, it will be displayed in the status
bar as well as displayed in a common error dialog box. This will mean the
user is not delayed from progressing on to the next operation unless an
error occurs, in which case, the user will have to acknowledge the error
by pressing the OK button.
