Datafill Parameters & Optimization Procedures 
The MC-Series System is designed to be 100% compatible with the Motorola EBRC and QUAD 
Base Radios. However, due to architecture differences between the two systems, not all datafill 
parameters apply equally to the MC-Series System. 
This section describes only those datafill parameters that need to be taken into consideration 
when used with the MC-Series System. Any datafill parameter not described here can be 
assumed to behave identically to the Motorola EBTS. This section includes:   
1.  Parameters that RFN does not support. 
2.  Parameters that have no effect on the RFN system.  
3.  Parameters that RFN supports, but which need to be setup differently than what is typically 
setup for a Motorola Base Radio.   
4. MIBs 
5. Optimization 
procedures. 
6.1  Unsupported Datafill Parameters 
The following datafill parameters are currently not supported.  
6.1.1 steThresholdMode 
This parameter has three different purposes: 
1.  Setting to zero allows the EBTS to automatically determine the STE threshold based on 
history of inbound transmissions.  
2.  Setting to maximum value of 250 essentially disables the use of STE filtering.  
3.  A manual override exists by setting the parameter in the range of 1 to 249. The default value 
is set to 250.  
The release notes indicate that this should only be used when sites are separated by more than 
35 miles. 
6.1.2 brPwrReducModeAcg 
This parameter is used to enable/disable the Power Reduction feature on a per-BR basis. The 
default value is set to 'ON' and it is on-line changeable. 
The MC-Series System currently does not use this feature since the system uses considerably 
less power than an EBRC. 
6.1.3 brAddBuffering 
This parameter adjusts the amount of buffering applied to all outbound voice packets prior to 
sending to the ISC.  The default setting is 0, which corresponds to 45 mSec of buffering.
