TEMS Pocket 7.2 for Sony Ericsson W995 and W995a – User’s Manual 
viii
Chapter 1. Introduction 
1. Introduction 
Welcome to TEMS Pocket. 
TEMS Pocket is an advanced cellular network diagnostics tool built into a 
Sony Ericsson or Nokia phone. TEMS Pocket is suitable for day-to-day 
verification, maintenance and troubleshooting of cellular networks but is also 
handy for many cell planning tasks. 
This document describes TEMS Pocket 7.2 (product packages Professional 
and Premium) as implemented in the Sony Ericsson W995 and W995a 
phones which support both GSM and WCDMA. A separate manual is 
provided for the GSM-only Sony Ericsson W995 EDGE phone. 
1.1. What’s New in TEMS Pocket 7.2 
TEMS Pocket 7.2 is a Sony Ericsson based release, the successor to TEMS 
Pocket 7.0. (TEMS Pocket 7.1 is a Nokia-based release.) 
1.1.1. New UMTS Phones: Sony Ericsson W995/W995a 
TEMS Pocket 7.2 is implemented on the Sony Ericsson W995 and W995a 
phones. They are the first Sony Ericsson phones that officially support 
HSUPA (EUL). Some further key features of these devices are: 
• GSM/GPRS quad-band (850/900/1800/1900 MHz) 
• WCDMA/HSPA 7.2 Mbit/s DL, 2 Mbit/s UL 
– W995: 900/2100 MHz 
– W995a: 850/1900/2100 MHz 
• 8.1 megapixel camera 
• Integrated GPS 
LZT 138 0240 R1A 1
TEMS Pocket 7.2 for Sony Ericsson W995 and W995a – User’s Manual 
1.1.2. New GSM Phone: Sony Ericsson W995 EDGE 
TEMS Pocket 7.2 is also available on the GSM-only version of the W995 
phone, which is called Sony Ericsson W995 EDGE. Key features are: 
• GSM/GPRS quad-band (850/900/1800/1900 MHz) 
• EDGE Class 10 
1.1.3. New GPS 
The GPS that can optionally be ordered with TEMS Pocket 7.2 is the 
GlobalSat BT-359. 
1.1.4. HSPA Data View 
The HSDPA Data view has been expanded with HSUPA-specific information 
and renamed “HSPA Data”. Among this information may be noted average E-TFCI, 
2 
average Serving Grant Index, average transport block size, and the UE 
happy rate. 
1.2. What Was New in TEMS Pocket 7.0 
1.2.1. Phones: Sony Ericsson C905, C905a 
TEMS Pocket 7.0 is implemented on the Sony Ericsson C905 and C905a 
phones. Their features include: 
• GSM/GPRS quad-band 
• HSDPA/WCDMA 2100 MHz (C905); 850/1900/2100 MHz (C905a) 
• HSDPA 7.2 Mbit/s on downlink 
• 8.1 megapixel camera 
• Integrated GPS 
1.2.2. Map View and Pinpointing 
The map view was the principal new feature in TEMS Pocket 7.0. It allows 
users to pinpoint their route through a building on a floor plan. The setup is 
fast and easy:
Chapter 1. Introduction 
• Obtain an image of the floor plan. For example, use the camera in the 
TEMS Pocket phone to take a photo of the emergency/evacuation plan 
displayed in the building. 
• Load the picture as a background image in the Map view. 
• Start pinpointing your position in the building. A logfile will be opened 
automatically. Pinpoint at regular intervals along the route and whenever 
you change direction. 
• When you are done with the measurement, give a “Stop pinpointing” 
command. The logfile will close. 
This is the full list of steps required to use the TEMS Pocket Map view. No 
messy or time-consuming preparations have been left out: none are needed. 
Before post-processing the data, it just needs to be anchored to a 
geographical position. This is accomplished in a tick with a software utility 
accompanying TEMS Pocket. The logfiles are then ready to be loaded into 
TEMS Presentation or TEMS Investigation. 
The map functionality is available as an option in the Professional package. 
1.2.3. Data Views with Graphs 
TEMS Pocket 7.0 comes equipped with a set of graph views showing how 
radio parameters vary over time. These line charts were an entirely new 
feature in TEMS Pocket 7.0, but they are similar to the ones found in TEMS 
Investigation and TEMS Presentation. All graphs come predefined and ready 
to use without any need for configuration. 
1.2.4. Smarter Logfile Upload 
The data upload process was improved: If the FTP connection goes down, 
the upload of a logfile can optionally be resumed from where it was 
interrupted instead of being restarted from the beginning. The new procedure 
cuts upload times and saves phone battery life, enhancing the efficiency and 
power of the tool. 
1.2.5. Cell Id Presentation 
Cell Identity data is presented in both idle and dedicated/connected mode for 
both GSM and WCDMA. This is achieved by buffering Cell Identities in idle 
mode and then correlating the buffered data with the phone’s position in 
LZT 138 0240 R1A 3
TEMS Pocket 7.2 for Sony Ericsson W995 and W995a – User’s Manual 
dedicated/connected mode. The buffer is cleared when the phone is 
restarted. 
1.2.6. Snapshots of Data Views 
A display snapshot function was added which enables you to capture TEMS 
Pocket data views in the form of bitmap images. The snapshot function is 
perfect for instantly capturing your own user’s view of the network. It can also 
be used to produce receipts handed in by staff to confirm completion of field 
measurement tasks. This too contributes to efficiency and reduces traveling 
expenses. 
1.2.7. Importing and Exporting TEMS Pocket Settings 
More aspects of user configuration in TEMS Pocket can be saved to file: 
command sequence setups, user-configured map views, and more. Each 
setup is saved in a separate file which can be imported into the application on 
a later occasion. This functionality permits convenient distribution of test 
setups to multiple TEMS Pocket units.

Chapter 2. Overview of TEMS Pocket 
2. Overview of TEMS Pocket 
2.1. Data Views 
Most of the data displayed by TEMS Pocket is to be found in data views. 
When you turn the phone on for the first time, it will display the W/G Cells 
data view: 
On later occasions, when turned on, the phone will display the data view last 
inspected, provided that the TEMS Pocket operational mode is set to Active 
(see section 7.1). 
The data views are divided into categories from 1 to 5. Each data view is 
numbered according to the format “x.y”, where “x” is the category and “y” the 
position of the data view within that category. You browse the categories by 
moving the navigation key left and right, and the data views within a category 
by moving the navigation key up and down. TEMS Pocket remembers the 
view last displayed in each category; when you return to a category, that view 
is shown. 
The top section of the display preserves the ordinary signal strength and 
battery power level indicators as well as other symbols belonging to the 
regular user interface of the phone. Among the latter are: 
A “3G” symbol indicating that the phone’s current serving cell supports 
WCDMA R99 (but not HSDPA). 
An “H” symbol indicating that the current serving cell supports HSDPA. 
LZT 138 0240 R1A 5
TEMS Pocket 7.2 for Sony Ericsson W995 and W995a – User’s Manual 
The top section of the display also shows: 
• a symbol indicating that a logfile is being recorded (see section 7.3) 
• a symbol indicating that a logfile is being replayed, and the status of the 
6 
replay (see section 7.4.2) 
• a symbol indicating that a cell control function is currently applied (see 
section 8.2) 
• an icon for the latest TEMS Pocket event that occurred (if it occurred 
within the last 15 minutes; see section 8.3.4) 
If the default phone display with the operator name appears instead of a 
TEMS Pocket data view, this is because TEMS Pocket has been put in 
background or inactive mode (see section 7.1). By default TEMS Pocket is in 
active mode, and all of its data views are visible. 
The data views are exhaustively described in chapter 3. 
2.1.1. Data Views with Graphs 
Data views with graphs combine text-format content (similar to that of 
ordinary data views) with a line chart showing how one or several parameters 
vary over time. Like the text-only data views, the graph views are predefined. 
They are collected in category 5. 
The top section of the display has precisely the same layout and behavior as 
in text-only data views. See section 2.1. 
2.2. Map View 
The Map view (no. 1.7) is used for pinpointing a test route on a floor plan or 
other map image. See section 2.5.3.
Chapter 2. Overview of TEMS Pocket 
2.3. Menus 
When you press the Activity key on the phone, a tab with TEMS Pocket 
commands appears on top in the Activity menu: 
Most of the commands in this menu are found only here. The menu is gone 
through in chapter 7. 
From the Activity menu you can also access the Pocket menu, which is the 
chief means of configuring TEMS Pocket: see chapter 8. The Pocket menu 
can alternatively be accessed from the phone’s main menu: Settings → 
General → Pocket menu. 
Note: TEMS Pocket settings are always saved in the phone’s internal 
memory. If the phone memory is full, TEMS Pocket settings can 
no longer be saved. You then need to remove some files to free 
up memory. 
LZT 138 0240 R1A 7
TEMS Pocket 7.2 for Sony Ericsson W995 and W995a – User’s Manual 
2.4. Events 
Events are generated and logged by TEMS Pocket to indicate that something 
interesting and worthy of note has occurred in the phone’s interaction with the 
cellular network. 
The event log is inspected and managed from the Pocket menu. See section 
8.3.1. A shortcut to the event log is found in the Activity menu. 
2.5. Logfiles 
2.5.1. Logfile Recording 
You can record data collected by TEMS Pocket in logfiles and replay these 
files in TEMS Pocket itself or in TEMS Investigation or TEMS Presentation. 
See sections 7.3, 7.4, and 8.7. 
2.5.2. GPS Positioning 
TEMS Pocket supports positioning of data using GPS. You can use either the 
phone’s internal GPS or an external GPS unit that has been Bluetooth paired 
with the phone. See section 8.5. 
2.5.3. Positioning by Pinpointing 
In an indoor environment or other location without GPS coverage, you can 
use the Map view (see section 2.2) to pinpoint your test route. You load an 
image of your testing area into the Map view, then indicate your route by 
marking waypoints on that map. The map image can also be assigned a 
geographical position. For the full details on these procedures, see chapter 6. 
2.6. Cell Control Functions 
TEMS Pocket has a number of cell control functions for controlling the 
phone’s behavior in the cellular network. These include locking the phone to a 
RAT, band, cell, or channel. See section 8.2 for full details. 
8
Chapter 2. Overview of TEMS Pocket 
2.7. Command Sequence 
TEMS Pocket offers the use of a command sequence for automated testing 
of various services. See section 8.8. 
2.8. Storage Medium: Phone Memory vs. Memory 
Stick 
In general it is recommendable to use a memory stick rather than the phone’s 
internal memory as storage medium (for logfiles, FTP downloads, etc.). This 
is because the internal memory of the Sony Ericsson W995 and W995a is 
fairly small. The memory stick is the default choice in all dialogs where a 
storage medium needs to be selected. 
2.9. Language Support 
TEMS Pocket Sony Ericsson W995 and W995a phones support languages 
as follows: 
• Regular phone user interface: Arabic, Chinese (Mandarin, simplified 
characters), Danish, English, French, Norwegian, Spanish, Swedish 
• Pocket user interface 
– Text display: English 
– User input: English

3. Data Views: General 
3.1. General Data View Properties 
The data views in category 1 (numbered “1.x”) are capable of showing both 
WCDMA and GSM data. Both will appear simultaneously if the phone is 
making inter-RAT neighbor measurements. 
The data views in category 2 chiefly contain WCDMA-specific data, and those 
in category 3 and 4 chiefly contain GSM- and GPRS/EGPRS-specific data. 
The data views in category 5 all include a graph. WCDMA-only, GSM-only, 
and combined views are found in this category. 
All data views have the same general structure in idle mode and dedicated/ 
active mode. 
Whenever a parameter is currently not valid, this is indicated in the data view 
by a dash “–” or a string of dashes. 
Certain parameters are presented both numerically and graphically, the 
number appearing on top of a colored bar whose length and color depend on 
the parameter value. These parameters are tagged “numeric/graphic” in 
chapters 4 and 5. The rules for the graphic presentation are found in 
appendix B, page 137. 
In the case of frequency hopping, the hopping list is shown one channel at a 
time, a new channel appearing every second. 
3.2. The Built-in Help Function 
If you press Options and select “Toggle help”, a callout box appears 
describing the piece of data in the top left corner of the screen. Use the 
navigation key to navigate the contents of the data view. 
10
Chapter 3. Data Views: General 
• To turn off the help function, press the “C” key. Alternatively, press Options 
and choose Toggle help again. 
3.3. The Capture Function 
You can take screenshots of any data view. To do this, you must first turn the 
screen capture function on (while in a data view) by selecting Options → 
Toggle capture. 
Whenever the phone is in standby mode or during a voice call, you can now 
take a screenshot by pressing the Capture button. Please note that 
screenshots are always stored on the memory card (under OtherPocket 
Capture), so the phone must have one inserted. 
A shutter sound is played when the screenshot is taken. Image files are 
named DV<X>-<Y>_<N>.bmp, where <X>-<Y> represent the data view 
number and <N> is a counter starting at 1. Up to 1000 screenshots of each 
data view can be stored. 
3.4. Other Data View Actions 
In some data views you can perform an action relating to a piece of data 
shown in the view. For example, in data views listing cells, you can lock on 
one of the cells. 
All data view actions are performed by pressing the Options button and 
choosing Data view actions. A submenu appears listing the available actions.

While the WAP browser (activated from the phone’s main menu → Internet) 
is running, TEMS Pocket can show selected air interface information in the 
bottom part of the screen. Two WAP browser data views are provided, one for 
WCDMA and one for GPRS. You toggle between the views by briefly 
pressing the up and down arrow buttons on the left side of the phone. (These 
buttons also control the media player volume if the media player is running.) 
The WAP browser data views are by default visible. 
• During a WAP session, you can hide the data views by pressing Options 
50 
and choosing Hide data view. To show them again, press Options and 
choose Show data view. 
• You can also turn these data views on and off from the Pocket menu; see 
section 8.10.1. 
The WAP browser can alternatively be viewed in “landscape” fashion. The 
data view then still appears at the bottom (that is, along the left edge of the 
phone display when the phone is held in the normal manner). The data view 
contents and layout remain unchanged.

5. Data Views with Graphs 
The data views in category 5 all contain a graph showing how one or several 
parameters evolve over time. In other respects, these data views are similar 
to the text-only data views covered in chapter 4. 
The unit “m” on the x-axis of each graph means “minutes”. 
Events are indicated as vertical lines in graphs. However, an event appears 
only if logging is currently turned on for that type of event (see sections

6. The Map View 
The Map view enables recording of positions for measurements in indoor 
locations and other places where GPS coverage is not available. The 
positioning is done by pinpointing the test route in the Map view. 
Note that in order to use the pinpointing function, you must have a memory 
card with sufficient free space installed on the phone. This is because all 
logfile-related data is copied to the memory card in connection with creating 
the zip archive. (Other methods of recording a logfile do not require a memory 
card.) 
6.1. Loading a Map Image into the Map View 
• First you need to obtain an image of the environment that is going to be 
68 
covered during measurement. For example, use the phone’s camera to 
photograph the emergency or evacuation plan for the relevant floor. The 
best image quality is obtained if the camera is set in black-and-white 
mode. Also avoid using the flash. If you are using an image from a 
different source, it must be in JPEG format. 
• Load your image as a background image in the Map view: While in this 
view, press Options and select Data view actions → Load map. Locate 
the file you want to load, and press Select.
Chapter 6. The Map View 
The image now appears in the Map view: 
6.2. Pinpointing Your Test Route 
6.2.1. Setting the Map Zoom 
You can start pinpointing as soon as the map is loaded. However, before 
getting started on your test route, it is a good idea to adjust the zoom level of 
the Map view so that the pinpointing actions can be performed conveniently. 
• In the Map view, press Options and select Data view actions → Map 
properties → Zoom. Set the zoom level as appropriate. 
6.2.2. Customizing the Appearance of Route Markers 
The waypoints that you mark on the map will always be colored blue. 
The markers tracing your route between waypoints will by default be color-coded 
according to RxLev (in GSM) or UTRA Carrier RSSI (in WCDMA). The 
LZT 138 0240 R1A 69
TEMS Pocket 7.2 for Sony Ericsson W995 and W995a – User’s Manual 
color coding is explained in appendix B, page 137. You can change to a 
different parameter as follows: 
• Press Options and select Data view actions → Value element. 
• Select the desired parameter. 
(“RLC DL”/“RLC UL” means RLC throughput for 
WCDMA and RLC/MAC throughput for GSM.) 
6.2.3. Entering Map Properties 
You can set some text attributes for the map image. The purpose of supplying 
this information is to enable geographical positioning of the map image using 
the TEMS Pocket Positioning Tool: see section 6.3. 
• Press Options and select Data view actions → Map properties. 
• Latitude, Longitude: Enter the coordinates of 
the top left corner of the map image. 
• Address, Building, Floor: Enter the relevant 
information. 
The parameters are written to an XML file; see section 6.2.4. 
6.2.4. Pinpointing and Recording 
• To initiate a measurement, press Options and select Data view actions → 
70 
Start pinpointing. A crosshair symbol becomes visible, and a logfile is 
opened automatically. The fact that the pinpointing is in progress is 
indicated by an icon at the top of the display.
Chapter 6. The Map View 
• To pinpoint a spot on the map, move the crosshairs to the desired 
position, then press the Select button. 
Note: The screen capture function must be turned off, otherwise the 
right soft button will be labeled Capture instead. 
• Continue pinpointing at regular intervals along the route, and whenever 
you change direction. Consecutive waypoints are automatically 
connected by route markers. 
• When you are done with the measurement, press Options and select Data 
view actions → Stop pinpointing. 
LZT 138 0240 R1A 71
TEMS Pocket 7.2 for Sony Ericsson W995 and W995a – User’s Manual 
The logfile closes, and the pinpointing icon disappears. 
A zip archive is now created holding: 
• the logfile (*.log) 
• the image loaded into the Map view (*.jpg) 
• a file where the pinpointed route is recorded (*.ppf) 
• the map properties covered in section 6.2.3 (*.xml) 
• an index file detailing the archive contents (.xml). 
Please note that such zip archives cannot be replayed as-is in TEMS Pocket. 
(They resemble ordinary logfiles in the phone file system, since the phone 
does not show file extensions.) 
6.3. Positioning the Map Geographically 
The description of the test route furnished by pinpointing can be utilized when 
viewing TEMS Pocket logfiles in other TEMS tools such as TEMS 
Investigation and TEMS Presentation. 
Before post-processing the data, however, it needs to be anchored to a 
geographical position. This is accomplished by processing the zip archive 
with a software utility called TEMS Pocket Positioning Tool, which is installed 
along with TEMS Investigation as well as TEMS Presentation. It is launched 
from the Start menu by selecting Programs → Ascom → TEMS Products → 
Utilities → TEMS Pocket Positioning Tool. For further details on this topic, 
consult the TEMS Pocket Positioning Tool User’s Manual. 
The intended way of working is to position the map using the coordinates 
provided in the map properties in TEMS Pocket: see section 6.2.3. 
After being positioned, the logfiles are ready to be loaded into TEMS 
Investigation or TEMS Presentation.

Chapter 7. TEMS Pocket Functions in the Activity Menu 
7. TEMS Pocket Functions in the 
Activity Menu 
A number of TEMS Pocket functions are accessed by pressing the Activity 
key. This is the button labeled . 
Note that many of these functions are found only in the Activity menu and not 
among the submenus of the Pocket menu. They are placed here to be 
conveniently accessible regardless of what TEMS Pocket functions or other 
phone functions you are using. 
7.1. Operational Mode 
Active: All TEMS Pocket functions are active. 
Background: No data views are displayed, but all 
other TEMS Pocket functions are active. 
Inactive: No TEMS Pocket functions are active. 
7.2. Insert Filemark 
This command inserts filemarks (text strings) in a logfile while it is being 
recorded. You can use filemarks to tag segments of special interest in the 
logfile. For example, you might want to note down the location where 
something particular happened (helpful if you are not using a GPS of any 
kind). 
On selecting this command you are prompted to type the filemark text. It may 
consist of up to 127 characters. 
This command is available only while logfile recording is in progress. 
LZT 138 0240 R1A 73
TEMS Pocket 7.2 for Sony Ericsson W995 and W995a – User’s Manual 
7.3. Start/Stop Logfile Recording 
This command is used for manual recording of TEMS Pocket logfiles. (Logfile 
recording can also be automated, using a variety of trigger conditions. This is 
done from the Logfiles menu; see section 8.7.2. Regarding logfile recording 
by pinpointing, see section 6.2.) 
You can insert filemarks in a logfile during recording; see section 7.2. 
If the memory on the storage medium used for logfiles is running low (only 
1 MB left), or if some error occurs, the recording is stopped. You are then 
notified by a message in the display. 
Refer to section 8.7 for all remaining details on logfile recording and handling. 
During logfile replay this command is not available. 
7.3.1. Icons Used for Logfile Recording 
74 
While a logfile is being recorded, this icon is shown on the status bar at 
the top of the display. 
7.4. Start/Stop Logfile Replay 
This command is used to start and stop replay TEMS Pocket logfiles in TEMS 
Pocket itself. Note that you can also replay the logfiles in TEMS Investigation 
and TEMS Presentation and make use of the powerful presentation facilities 
in these tools. 
On giving this command you are taken to the file system of the logfile storage 
medium (see section 8.7.1) in order to select a logfile for replay. Regardless 
of storage medium, the directory is named OtherPocketPro. A filter is 
applied so that only files with extension .log are visible. 
Once you have selected a logfile, the TEMS Pocket user interface (data 
views, event log, event counters) is cleared, and the logfile replay is put on 
standby. The actual replay does not begin until you select Play; see section 
7.4.1 below. 
During replay, the user interface is updated by the logfile content exactly as in 
live mode, that is, exactly as if the data were being received from the network. 
The cell control icon (see section 8.2.1) does not appear during replay, nor 
can the Cell Control menu be accessed while a logfile is being replayed. It is 
therefore not possible in TEMS Pocket to inspect the exact cell control
Chapter 7. TEMS Pocket Functions in the Activity Menu 
settings that were in force at a particular point while recording the logfile. This 
can however be done by replaying the logfile in TEMS Investigation and 
studying certain information elements exhibited in that application (“Band 
Control”, “Serving Cell List Active”, and others). 
In both TEMS Pocket and TEMS Investigation, events reflecting the 
application of cell control functions at recording time will appear during replay, 
just like any other events. 
If you rewind the logfile, the TEMS Pocket user interface (data views, event 
log, event counters) is once again cleared. The same thing happens when 
you exit replay mode. 
During logfile recording, during execution of a command sequence, and 
during FTP sessions the replay command is not available. 
7.4.1. Replay Control Functions 
Play: Replays the logfile at approximately live 
speed. While the replay is in progress the button is 
relabeled Pause, and pressing the button in that 
situation pauses the replay. Press the button once 
more (now named Play again) to resume the 
replay from the point where it was paused. 
Step: Reads one more phone message from the 
logfile and then pauses the replay. You may have 
to step several times to see any changes in the 
data. 
Options: Pressing this button gives access to 
further replay control functions; see below. 
Rewind: Rewinds the logfile to the beginning and 
clears the TEMS Pocket user interface. Press Play 
to start the replay once more. 
Exit replay mode: Aborts the logfile replay, closes 
the logfile, and returns TEMS Pocket to live mode. 
LZT 138 0240 R1A 75
TEMS Pocket 7.2 for Sony Ericsson W995 and W995a – User’s Manual 
When the replay has reached the end of the logfile, the buttons are once 
again relabeled, now with the choices in the Options menu (above): 
Options: Toggle on-screen help mode; toggle 
capture on/off. 
Rewind: See above. 
Exit: Exit replay mode; see above. 
During logfile replay all other TEMS Pocket control functions (all other 
commands in the Activity menu and all commands in the Cell Control, FTP, 
Logfile, and Command Sequence menus) are disabled. 
If an incoming call is received during logfile replay, you can choose either to 
answer the call, aborting the replay, or to ignore the call and proceed with the 
replay. In the latter case a busy tone will be sent to the calling party. 
7.4.2. Icons Used for Logfile Replay 
The following icons are displayed on the status bar to indicate the status of 
the replay: 
76 
Replay in progress at normal speed (following Play command) 
Replay paused (following Pause or Step command) 
Replay stopped. This means that the logfile has been replayed to the 
end. 
7.5. Event Log 
This is a shortcut to the event log; see section 8.3.1. 
7.6. Start/Stop FTP 
This command is used to conduct FTP sessions, including uploading of 
TEMS Pocket logfiles if you prefer to do these uploads manually. The

  • 11. Chapter 1. Introduction 1. Introduction Welcome to TEMS Pocket. TEMS Pocket is an advanced cellular network diagnostics tool built into a Sony Ericsson or Nokia phone. TEMS Pocket is suitable for day-to-day verification, maintenance and troubleshooting of cellular networks but is also handy for many cell planning tasks. This document describes TEMS Pocket 7.2 (product packages Professional and Premium) as implemented in the Sony Ericsson W995 and W995a phones which support both GSM and WCDMA. A separate manual is provided for the GSM-only Sony Ericsson W995 EDGE phone. 1.1. What’s New in TEMS Pocket 7.2 TEMS Pocket 7.2 is a Sony Ericsson based release, the successor to TEMS Pocket 7.0. (TEMS Pocket 7.1 is a Nokia-based release.) 1.1.1. New UMTS Phones: Sony Ericsson W995/W995a TEMS Pocket 7.2 is implemented on the Sony Ericsson W995 and W995a phones. They are the first Sony Ericsson phones that officially support HSUPA (EUL). Some further key features of these devices are: • GSM/GPRS quad-band (850/900/1800/1900 MHz) • WCDMA/HSPA 7.2 Mbit/s DL, 2 Mbit/s UL – W995: 900/2100 MHz – W995a: 850/1900/2100 MHz • 8.1 megapixel camera • Integrated GPS LZT 138 0240 R1A 1
  • 12. TEMS Pocket 7.2 for Sony Ericsson W995 and W995a – User’s Manual 1.1.2. New GSM Phone: Sony Ericsson W995 EDGE TEMS Pocket 7.2 is also available on the GSM-only version of the W995 phone, which is called Sony Ericsson W995 EDGE. Key features are: • GSM/GPRS quad-band (850/900/1800/1900 MHz) • EDGE Class 10 1.1.3. New GPS The GPS that can optionally be ordered with TEMS Pocket 7.2 is the GlobalSat BT-359. 1.1.4. HSPA Data View The HSDPA Data view has been expanded with HSUPA-specific information and renamed “HSPA Data”. Among this information may be noted average E-TFCI, 2 average Serving Grant Index, average transport block size, and the UE happy rate. 1.2. What Was New in TEMS Pocket 7.0 1.2.1. Phones: Sony Ericsson C905, C905a TEMS Pocket 7.0 is implemented on the Sony Ericsson C905 and C905a phones. Their features include: • GSM/GPRS quad-band • HSDPA/WCDMA 2100 MHz (C905); 850/1900/2100 MHz (C905a) • HSDPA 7.2 Mbit/s on downlink • 8.1 megapixel camera • Integrated GPS 1.2.2. Map View and Pinpointing The map view was the principal new feature in TEMS Pocket 7.0. It allows users to pinpoint their route through a building on a floor plan. The setup is fast and easy:
  • 13. Chapter 1. Introduction • Obtain an image of the floor plan. For example, use the camera in the TEMS Pocket phone to take a photo of the emergency/evacuation plan displayed in the building. • Load the picture as a background image in the Map view. • Start pinpointing your position in the building. A logfile will be opened automatically. Pinpoint at regular intervals along the route and whenever you change direction. • When you are done with the measurement, give a “Stop pinpointing” command. The logfile will close. This is the full list of steps required to use the TEMS Pocket Map view. No messy or time-consuming preparations have been left out: none are needed. Before post-processing the data, it just needs to be anchored to a geographical position. This is accomplished in a tick with a software utility accompanying TEMS Pocket. The logfiles are then ready to be loaded into TEMS Presentation or TEMS Investigation. The map functionality is available as an option in the Professional package. 1.2.3. Data Views with Graphs TEMS Pocket 7.0 comes equipped with a set of graph views showing how radio parameters vary over time. These line charts were an entirely new feature in TEMS Pocket 7.0, but they are similar to the ones found in TEMS Investigation and TEMS Presentation. All graphs come predefined and ready to use without any need for configuration. 1.2.4. Smarter Logfile Upload The data upload process was improved: If the FTP connection goes down, the upload of a logfile can optionally be resumed from where it was interrupted instead of being restarted from the beginning. The new procedure cuts upload times and saves phone battery life, enhancing the efficiency and power of the tool. 1.2.5. Cell Id Presentation Cell Identity data is presented in both idle and dedicated/connected mode for both GSM and WCDMA. This is achieved by buffering Cell Identities in idle mode and then correlating the buffered data with the phone’s position in LZT 138 0240 R1A 3
  • 14. TEMS Pocket 7.2 for Sony Ericsson W995 and W995a – User’s Manual dedicated/connected mode. The buffer is cleared when the phone is restarted. 1.2.6. Snapshots of Data Views A display snapshot function was added which enables you to capture TEMS Pocket data views in the form of bitmap images. The snapshot function is perfect for instantly capturing your own user’s view of the network. It can also be used to produce receipts handed in by staff to confirm completion of field measurement tasks. This too contributes to efficiency and reduces traveling expenses. 1.2.7. Importing and Exporting TEMS Pocket Settings More aspects of user configuration in TEMS Pocket can be saved to file: command sequence setups, user-configured map views, and more. Each setup is saved in a separate file which can be imported into the application on a later occasion. This functionality permits convenient distribution of test setups to multiple TEMS Pocket units. 4
  • 15. Chapter 2. Overview of TEMS Pocket 2. Overview of TEMS Pocket 2.1. Data Views Most of the data displayed by TEMS Pocket is to be found in data views. When you turn the phone on for the first time, it will display the W/G Cells data view: On later occasions, when turned on, the phone will display the data view last inspected, provided that the TEMS Pocket operational mode is set to Active (see section 7.1). The data views are divided into categories from 1 to 5. Each data view is numbered according to the format “x.y”, where “x” is the category and “y” the position of the data view within that category. You browse the categories by moving the navigation key left and right, and the data views within a category by moving the navigation key up and down. TEMS Pocket remembers the view last displayed in each category; when you return to a category, that view is shown. The top section of the display preserves the ordinary signal strength and battery power level indicators as well as other symbols belonging to the regular user interface of the phone. Among the latter are: A “3G” symbol indicating that the phone’s current serving cell supports WCDMA R99 (but not HSDPA). An “H” symbol indicating that the current serving cell supports HSDPA.

  • 16. TEMS Pocket 7.2 for Sony Ericsson W995 and W995a – User’s Manual The top section of the display also shows: • a symbol indicating that a logfile is being recorded (see section 7.3) • a symbol indicating that a logfile is being replayed, and the status of the 6 replay (see section 7.4.2) • a symbol indicating that a cell control function is currently applied (see section 8.2) • an icon for the latest TEMS Pocket event that occurred (if it occurred within the last 15 minutes; see section 8.3.4) If the default phone display with the operator name appears instead of a TEMS Pocket data view, this is because TEMS Pocket has been put in background or inactive mode (see section 7.1). By default TEMS Pocket is in active mode, and all of its data views are visible. The data views are exhaustively described in chapter 3. 2.1.1. Data Views with Graphs Data views with graphs combine text-format content (similar to that of ordinary data views) with a line chart showing how one or several parameters vary over time. Like the text-only data views, the graph views are predefined. They are collected in category 5. The top section of the display has precisely the same layout and behavior as in text-only data views. See section 2.1. 2.2. Map View The Map view (no. 1.7) is used for pinpointing a test route on a floor plan or other map image. See section 2.5.3.
  • 17. Chapter 2. Overview of TEMS Pocket 2.3. Menus When you press the Activity key on the phone, a tab with TEMS Pocket commands appears on top in the Activity menu: Most of the commands in this menu are found only here. The menu is gone through in chapter 7. From the Activity menu you can also access the Pocket menu, which is the chief means of configuring TEMS Pocket: see chapter 8. The Pocket menu can alternatively be accessed from the phone’s main menu: Settings → General → Pocket menu. Note: TEMS Pocket settings are always saved in the phone’s internal memory. If the phone memory is full, TEMS Pocket settings can no longer be saved. You then need to remove some files to free up memory. LZT 138 0240 R1A 7
  • 18. TEMS Pocket 7.2 for Sony Ericsson W995 and W995a – User’s Manual 2.4. Events Events are generated and logged by TEMS Pocket to indicate that something interesting and worthy of note has occurred in the phone’s interaction with the cellular network. The event log is inspected and managed from the Pocket menu. See section 8.3.1. A shortcut to the event log is found in the Activity menu. 2.5. Logfiles 2.5.1. Logfile Recording You can record data collected by TEMS Pocket in logfiles and replay these files in TEMS Pocket itself or in TEMS Investigation or TEMS Presentation. See sections 7.3, 7.4, and 8.7. 2.5.2. GPS Positioning TEMS Pocket supports positioning of data using GPS. You can use either the phone’s internal GPS or an external GPS unit that has been Bluetooth paired with the phone. See section 8.5. 2.5.3. Positioning by Pinpointing In an indoor environment or other location without GPS coverage, you can use the Map view (see section 2.2) to pinpoint your test route. You load an image of your testing area into the Map view, then indicate your route by marking waypoints on that map. The map image can also be assigned a geographical position. For the full details on these procedures, see chapter 6. 2.6. Cell Control Functions TEMS Pocket has a number of cell control functions for controlling the phone’s behavior in the cellular network. These include locking the phone to a RAT, band, cell, or channel. See section 8.2 for full details. 8
  • 19. Chapter 2. Overview of TEMS Pocket 2.7. Command Sequence TEMS Pocket offers the use of a command sequence for automated testing of various services. See section 8.8. 2.8. Storage Medium: Phone Memory vs. Memory Stick In general it is recommendable to use a memory stick rather than the phone’s internal memory as storage medium (for logfiles, FTP downloads, etc.). This is because the internal memory of the Sony Ericsson W995 and W995a is fairly small. The memory stick is the default choice in all dialogs where a storage medium needs to be selected. 2.9. Language Support TEMS Pocket Sony Ericsson W995 and W995a phones support languages as follows: • Regular phone user interface: Arabic, Chinese (Mandarin, simplified characters), Danish, English, French, Norwegian, Spanish, Swedish • Pocket user interface – Text display: English – User input: English LZT 138 0240 R1A 9
  • 20. TEMS Pocket 7.2 for Sony Ericsson W995 and W995a – User’s Manual 3. Data Views: General 3.1. General Data View Properties The data views in category 1 (numbered “1.x”) are capable of showing both WCDMA and GSM data. Both will appear simultaneously if the phone is making inter-RAT neighbor measurements. The data views in category 2 chiefly contain WCDMA-specific data, and those in category 3 and 4 chiefly contain GSM- and GPRS/EGPRS-specific data. The data views in category 5 all include a graph. WCDMA-only, GSM-only, and combined views are found in this category. All data views have the same general structure in idle mode and dedicated/ active mode. Whenever a parameter is currently not valid, this is indicated in the data view by a dash “–” or a string of dashes. Certain parameters are presented both numerically and graphically, the number appearing on top of a colored bar whose length and color depend on the parameter value. These parameters are tagged “numeric/graphic” in chapters 4 and 5. The rules for the graphic presentation are found in appendix B, page 137. In the case of frequency hopping, the hopping list is shown one channel at a time, a new channel appearing every second. 3.2. The Built-in Help Function If you press Options and select “Toggle help”, a callout box appears describing the piece of data in the top left corner of the screen. Use the navigation key to navigate the contents of the data view. 10
  • 21. Chapter 3. Data Views: General • To turn off the help function, press the “C” key. Alternatively, press Options and choose Toggle help again. 3.3. The Capture Function You can take screenshots of any data view. To do this, you must first turn the screen capture function on (while in a data view) by selecting Options → Toggle capture. Whenever the phone is in standby mode or during a voice call, you can now take a screenshot by pressing the Capture button. Please note that screenshots are always stored on the memory card (under OtherPocket Capture), so the phone must have one inserted. A shutter sound is played when the screenshot is taken. Image files are named DV<X>-<Y>_<N>.bmp, where <X>-<Y> represent the data view number and <N> is a counter starting at 1. Up to 1000 screenshots of each data view can be stored. 3.4. Other Data View Actions In some data views you can perform an action relating to a piece of data shown in the view. For example, in data views listing cells, you can lock on one of the cells. All data view actions are performed by pressing the Options button and choosing Data view actions. A submenu appears listing the available actions. LZT 138 0240 R1A 11

  • 78. TEMS Pocket 7.2 for Sony Ericsson W995 and W995a – User’s Manual 6. The Map View The Map view enables recording of positions for measurements in indoor locations and other places where GPS coverage is not available. The positioning is done by pinpointing the test route in the Map view. Note that in order to use the pinpointing function, you must have a memory card with sufficient free space installed on the phone. This is because all logfile-related data is copied to the memory card in connection with creating the zip archive. (Other methods of recording a logfile do not require a memory card.) 6.1. Loading a Map Image into the Map View • First you need to obtain an image of the environment that is going to be 68 covered during measurement. For example, use the phone’s camera to photograph the emergency or evacuation plan for the relevant floor. The best image quality is obtained if the camera is set in black-and-white mode. Also avoid using the flash. If you are using an image from a different source, it must be in JPEG format. • Load your image as a background image in the Map view: While in this view, press Options and select Data view actions → Load map. Locate the file you want to load, and press Select.
  • 79. Chapter 6. The Map View The image now appears in the Map view: 6.2. Pinpointing Your Test Route 6.2.1. Setting the Map Zoom You can start pinpointing as soon as the map is loaded. However, before getting started on your test route, it is a good idea to adjust the zoom level of the Map view so that the pinpointing actions can be performed conveniently. • In the Map view, press Options and select Data view actions → Map properties → Zoom. Set the zoom level as appropriate. 6.2.2. Customizing the Appearance of Route Markers The waypoints that you mark on the map will always be colored blue. The markers tracing your route between waypoints will by default be color-coded according to RxLev (in GSM) or UTRA Carrier RSSI (in WCDMA). The LZT 138 0240 R1A 69
  • 80. TEMS Pocket 7.2 for Sony Ericsson W995 and W995a – User’s Manual color coding is explained in appendix B, page 137. You can change to a different parameter as follows: • Press Options and select Data view actions → Value element. • Select the desired parameter. (“RLC DL”/“RLC UL” means RLC throughput for WCDMA and RLC/MAC throughput for GSM.) 6.2.3. Entering Map Properties You can set some text attributes for the map image. The purpose of supplying this information is to enable geographical positioning of the map image using the TEMS Pocket Positioning Tool: see section 6.3. • Press Options and select Data view actions → Map properties. • Latitude, Longitude: Enter the coordinates of the top left corner of the map image. • Address, Building, Floor: Enter the relevant information. The parameters are written to an XML file; see section 6.2.4. 6.2.4. Pinpointing and Recording • To initiate a measurement, press Options and select Data view actions → 70 Start pinpointing. A crosshair symbol becomes visible, and a logfile is opened automatically. The fact that the pinpointing is in progress is indicated by an icon at the top of the display.
  • 81. Chapter 6. The Map View • To pinpoint a spot on the map, move the crosshairs to the desired position, then press the Select button. Note: The screen capture function must be turned off, otherwise the right soft button will be labeled Capture instead. • Continue pinpointing at regular intervals along the route, and whenever you change direction. Consecutive waypoints are automatically connected by route markers. • When you are done with the measurement, press Options and select Data view actions → Stop pinpointing. LZT 138 0240 R1A 71
  • 82. TEMS Pocket 7.2 for Sony Ericsson W995 and W995a – User’s Manual The logfile closes, and the pinpointing icon disappears. A zip archive is now created holding: • the logfile (*.log) • the image loaded into the Map view (*.jpg) • a file where the pinpointed route is recorded (*.ppf) • the map properties covered in section 6.2.3 (*.xml) • an index file detailing the archive contents (.xml). Please note that such zip archives cannot be replayed as-is in TEMS Pocket. (They resemble ordinary logfiles in the phone file system, since the phone does not show file extensions.) 6.3. Positioning the Map Geographically The description of the test route furnished by pinpointing can be utilized when viewing TEMS Pocket logfiles in other TEMS tools such as TEMS Investigation and TEMS Presentation. Before post-processing the data, however, it needs to be anchored to a geographical position. This is accomplished by processing the zip archive with a software utility called TEMS Pocket Positioning Tool, which is installed along with TEMS Investigation as well as TEMS Presentation. It is launched from the Start menu by selecting Programs → Ascom → TEMS Products → Utilities → TEMS Pocket Positioning Tool. For further details on this topic, consult the TEMS Pocket Positioning Tool User’s Manual. The intended way of working is to position the map using the coordinates provided in the map properties in TEMS Pocket: see section 6.2.3. After being positioned, the logfiles are ready to be loaded into TEMS Investigation or TEMS Presentation. 72
  • 83. Chapter 7. TEMS Pocket Functions in the Activity Menu 7. TEMS Pocket Functions in the Activity Menu A number of TEMS Pocket functions are accessed by pressing the Activity key. This is the button labeled . Note that many of these functions are found only in the Activity menu and not among the submenus of the Pocket menu. They are placed here to be conveniently accessible regardless of what TEMS Pocket functions or other phone functions you are using. 7.1. Operational Mode Active: All TEMS Pocket functions are active. Background: No data views are displayed, but all other TEMS Pocket functions are active. Inactive: No TEMS Pocket functions are active. 7.2. Insert Filemark This command inserts filemarks (text strings) in a logfile while it is being recorded. You can use filemarks to tag segments of special interest in the logfile. For example, you might want to note down the location where something particular happened (helpful if you are not using a GPS of any kind). On selecting this command you are prompted to type the filemark text. It may consist of up to 127 characters. This command is available only while logfile recording is in progress.

  • 84. TEMS Pocket 7.2 for Sony Ericsson W995 and W995a – User’s Manual 7.3. Start/Stop Logfile Recording This command is used for manual recording of TEMS Pocket logfiles. (Logfile recording can also be automated, using a variety of trigger conditions. This is done from the Logfiles menu; see section 8.7.2. Regarding logfile recording by pinpointing, see section 6.2.) You can insert filemarks in a logfile during recording; see section 7.2. If the memory on the storage medium used for logfiles is running low (only 1 MB left), or if some error occurs, the recording is stopped. You are then notified by a message in the display. Refer to section 8.7 for all remaining details on logfile recording and handling. During logfile replay this command is not available. 7.3.1. Icons Used for Logfile Recording 74 While a logfile is being recorded, this icon is shown on the status bar at the top of the display. 7.4. Start/Stop Logfile Replay This command is used to start and stop replay TEMS Pocket logfiles in TEMS Pocket itself. Note that you can also replay the logfiles in TEMS Investigation and TEMS Presentation and make use of the powerful presentation facilities in these tools. On giving this command you are taken to the file system of the logfile storage medium (see section 8.7.1) in order to select a logfile for replay. Regardless of storage medium, the directory is named OtherPocketPro. A filter is applied so that only files with extension .log are visible. Once you have selected a logfile, the TEMS Pocket user interface (data views, event log, event counters) is cleared, and the logfile replay is put on standby. The actual replay does not begin until you select Play; see section 7.4.1 below. During replay, the user interface is updated by the logfile content exactly as in live mode, that is, exactly as if the data were being received from the network. The cell control icon (see section 8.2.1) does not appear during replay, nor can the Cell Control menu be accessed while a logfile is being replayed. It is therefore not possible in TEMS Pocket to inspect the exact cell control

This can however be done by replaying the logfile in TEMS Investigation and studying certain information elements exhibited in that application (“Band Control”, “Serving Cell List Active”, and others). In both TEMS Pocket and TEMS Investigation, events reflecting the application of cell control functions at recording time will appear during replay, just like any other events. If you rewind the logfile, the TEMS Pocket user interface (data views, event log, event counters) is once again cleared. The same thing happens when you exit replay mode. During logfile recording, during execution of a command sequence, and during FTP sessions the replay command is not available. 7.4.1. Replay Control Functions Play: Replays the logfile at approximately live speed. While the replay is in progress the button is relabeled Pause, and pressing the button in that situation pauses the replay. Press the button once more (now named Play again) to resume the replay from the point where it was paused. Step: Reads one more phone message from the logfile and then pauses the replay. You may have to step several times to see any changes in the data. Options: Pressing this button gives access to further replay control functions; see below. Rewind: Rewinds the logfile to the beginning and clears the TEMS Pocket user interface. Press Play to start the replay once more. Exit replay mode: Aborts the logfile replay, closes the logfile, and returns TEMS Pocket to live mode. LZT 138 0240 R1A 75
  • 86. TEMS Pocket 7.2 for Sony Ericsson W995 and W995a – User’s Manual When the replay has reached the end of the logfile, the buttons are once again relabeled, now with the choices in the Options menu (above): Options: Toggle on-screen help mode; toggle capture on/off. Rewind: See above. Exit: Exit replay mode; see above. During logfile replay all other TEMS Pocket control functions (all other commands in the Activity menu and all commands in the Cell Control, FTP, Logfile, and Command Sequence menus) are disabled. If an incoming call is received during logfile replay, you can choose either to answer the call, aborting the replay, or to ignore the call and proceed with the replay. In the latter case a busy tone will be sent to the calling party. 7.4.2. Icons Used for Logfile Replay The following icons are displayed on the status bar to indicate the status of the replay: 76 Replay in progress at normal speed (following Play command) Replay paused (following Pause or Step command) Replay stopped. This means that the logfile has been replayed to the end. 7.5. Event Log This is a shortcut to the event log; see section 8.3.1. 7.6. Start/Stop FTP This command is used to conduct FTP sessions, including uploading of TEMS Pocket logfiles if you prefer to do these uploads manually. The
