Introduction
General
TFE/K–2 Service Software is specially designed to facilitate the servicing of second generation Fixed Wireless terminals.
The software can be used to control the phone according to the user’s requirements merely by entering commands via the keyboard / mouse of a PC connected to the phone.
This section refers to Service Software generally. NMP will notify service personnel about future upgrades via Technical Bulletins. Software upgrades will be
available from your local NMP outlet.
Required Servicing Equipment
– Computer: Intel 386/33 MHz or compatible with one unused serial port
(COM1 or COM2*), one parallel port (LPT1), hard disk recommended.
Service Software Instructions
– Operating System: DOS Version 5 & Microsoft Windows 3.1 or later
– Display: VGA based display
– PC Locals program: for 3.5” disk (product code: 0774068)
– Software Protection Key PKD–1 (product code 0750018)
– M2BUS interface cable DAU–4S (product code 0730057)
*)
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.

Service Software Instructions
Mechanical Connections
Caution: Ensure that you have switched off the PC and the printer before
making connections !
Caution: Do not connect the PKD–1 to the serial port. This could damage
the 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–4S and XCM–1).
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). If you use a printer on
parallel port one, place the PKD–1 between the PC and your printer cable.
The PKD–1 should not effect 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.

Introduction to Service Software Package User Interface
This chapter gives a short description of the Service Software properties.
Service Software Hardware Environment
To run the Service Software, a parallel port software protection device (PKD–1)
has to be connected. The user can use the Service Software functions for testing all supported Phone Types. The functions send messages from the PC to
the phone, receives results and show them on the PC display. The messages
are sent via a low level NMP proprietary bus protocol. An example bus is an
M2BUS interface, which needs M2BUS adapter (DAU–2) connected to the PC
RS–232 port and special M2BUS cable.
The recommended minimum hardware standard to run the Service Software
package is any computer which is 386 33Mhz or greater with at least 4 MB of
memory and VGA type display (640x480). This assumes that only the Service
Software package is active, i.e. other Windows packages are not running in the
background.
Note: if the Service Software is to be run on laptops, the power saving feature
MUST be switched off.
Service Software Environment
Service Software user interface is intended for Microsoft Windows 3.1x environment running in enhanced mode. For those who are familiar with Windows environment this application will be easy to use. Detailed information about Windows and application usage can be found from 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. When messages from phone
are received, they cause display updating in special display windows. There is
always a status bar displayed at the bottom of the main window which contains
information about current actions.
Service Software Executables
Only one executable is needed – WinTesla. For TFE/K–2 there are two dlls:
– Functionality DLL is TFEK2.DLL
– User Interface DLL is TFEK2EN.DLL.
Command Line Parameters
There are NO command line parameters.

Custom Dialog Boxes
All custom dialog boxes will contain the predefined buttons as defined in section 3.8 – Buttons. However, it is recognized that features may require additional button types, but the addition of these non–standard buttons should be carefully considered to minimize any inconsistencies between implementations.
The buttons will be positioned down the right–hand side of the dialog boxes.
The default action will be OK, except where that default action could result in
an irretrievable failure.
All tuning dialog boxes that contain tuning results, will display the old tuned
data read from the phone before the tuning was performed, as well as the newly tuned data.
List boxes will be used to display lists of data, such as tuning data, test results
etc.
The use of Radio buttons should be limited and carefully considered. The use
of radios buttons defines the number of possible choices available to the user,
which may be acceptable for one project, but not for another.

Buttons
All buttons must be the Microsoft style of buttons.
In general, the default button will be the OK button, the Close button or the Yes
button, but this will depend on the context of the dialog box that the button is
associated with.
OK button:
Accept and validate entered settings and values and closes the dialog box. 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 over–write data that CANNOT be reproduced.
A greyed OK button indicates that settings selected by the user are not acceptable.
Close button:
Closes the current dialog box. Does not send or store anything, and closes the
dialog box. The Close button is only used for dialog boxes that do not set or
change any data.
Service Software Instructions
Cancel button (Esc):
Cancel operation. Does not send or store anything, and closes the dialog box.
A greyed Cancel button indicates that it is not possible to quit from this dialog
box.
Yes button (ALT+Y or Y):
Replies Yes to a question asked of the user.
No button (ALT+N or N):
Replies No to a question asked of the user.
Help button (ALT+H):
Open context sensitive help as F1–key does.
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.
