Retrieving CDR records from a survivable MG 1000T Expansion

The XCDR command, file retrieval in LD 143, transfers the CDR file from the survivable MG 1000T Expansion directly to the PC connected to the

MG 1000T Core.

Use the following procedure to retrieve the CDR files stored on the survivable MG 1000T Expansion (one file in each MG 1000T Expansion).

Procedure 122

Retrieving CDR files using XModem

1Connect a PC to the MG 1000T Core either remotely using a modem or directly using an SDI cable and a modem eliminator. Using a terminal-emulation program such as Hyperterminal, establish a TTY session with the MG 1000T through the modem or SDI cable.

2Log in and access LD 143 on the MG 1000T Core.

3Enter the following command: XCDR

The system prompts for the MG 1000T Expansion number.

4Enter the MG 1000T Expansion number on which the <dba.cdr> file is stored.

The system prints the following.

Getting CDR file for EXP_CAB <num> Ready to transmit

5Select the XModem protocol on the PC to receive the CDR file.

Use the Hyperterminal transfer function to receive the file using XModem protocol. Rename the file to indicate which MG 1000T Expansion the CDR data is from.

Note: Use a filename that does not overwrite any DBA-specific files if DBA is used to retrieve CDR/Traffic files from the MG 1000T.

6Parse the CDR file into the MG 1000T’s database on the PC. Refer to the OTM NTPs for how to process CDR records for billing applications.
