® ATEUS - BLUESTAR ® ATEUS - BLUESTAR is a compact yet highly sophisticated system. It supports full remote supervision and configuration via an IP network, or using an external modem over a BRI-ISDN and analog line, or over a B channel in a PRI-ISDN trunk. The system has been designed and works with a lot of highly sophisticated functions, which make it fully client- oriented and highly reliable in cooperation with both GSM networks and ISDN.
® 1. ATEUS - BLUESTAR Description - General Design 1.1. 19” Subrack 1.1.1. Basic Dimensions The system is integrated in a 19’’ subrack of the height of 3U and depth of 360mm. The front side is open, equipped with guides for plug-in boards with front panels – the panel including a mains switch is part of the subrack.
® 2. ATEUS - BLUESTAR Description – Main Features Quick unit start – being free of an operating system (programmed in the processor code), the system is completely ready to work within 30 seconds following its power on/restarting. Of course, the full function time of all GSM modules depends on the actual load and capacity of GSM networks to which the ATEUS - BLUESTAR is connected.
Page 9
Selection of GSM module use – the ATEUS - BLUESTAR allows you to select one of three available ways of GSM module occupation: 1. Any outgoing call is set up via a GSM module according to the B channel used. This option helps transfer routing functions to a connected PBX router.
Page 10
Called number CLIP SIM card position number SIM card IMSI or SCID High number of connected calls – owing to a very short GSM call connecting (routing) time and intelligent call rerouting in the event of failure, the ATEUS - BLUESTAR features high call time per month (traffic volume of over 250,000 minutes/month).

® 3. ATEUS - BLUESTAR Description – Plug-In Boards 3.1. CPU Board 3.1.1. Board Description The CPU board contains a powerful processor system controlling the whole system. The board is designed on a 4-layer PCB of the size of 160x100mm. A simple serial interface COM1, an Ethernet connector (10Base-T), and 7 board status LED indicators are located on the front panel.
3.1.4. Configuration Jumpers Default. Please don’t change Default. Please don’t change Default. Please don’t change RJ45 connector for 10baseT network There are three configuration jumpers on the CPU board. Jumper JP1 is intended for a change of the board addressing and is not used at present. It need not be applied during a common firmware upgrade.
3.2. AUX Board 3.2.1. Board Description The AUX board contains a switching array and system of voice messages, controlled by an independent processor system separated from the system bus. The AUX port is used for making testing calls or recording voice messages. The input amplifier is designed for an electret microphone, the output amplifier for 150ohm earphones.
3.3. PRI Board 3.3.1. Board Description The PRI board contains an one or two ISDN interfaces and PCM bus timing circuits. PRI 1 interface is designed as internal (on this port is activated LCR function), PRI 2 port is designed as external (all calls from the port will be routed to PRI 1 port).
3.3.2. Configuration Jumpers Default. Please don’t change Default. Please don’t change Active Disable PRI 2 PRI 1 There are four configuration jumpers on the PRI board. Jumper JP1 is intended for a change of the board addressing and is not used at present. Jumpers JP2, JP3 is used for hardware switching of the PRI ISDN connector into the TE or NT configuration.

Configuration Jumpers 3.4.2.1 GSM board Siemens TC35 SIM1 for SIM1 for GSM1 GSM2 SIM2 for SIM2 for GSM1 GSM2 SIM3 for SIM3 for GSM1 GSM2 SIM4 for SIM4 for GSM1 GSM2 There is just one configuration jumper on the GSM board. Jumper JP1 is intended for a change of the board addressing and is not applied at present.
4. Antenna Splitter 4.1. Splitter description Dual-Band Antenna Splitter Antenna splitter is the passive unit suitable for GSM gateways. It can combine maximum 16 antenna inputs to one or two antennas outputs. Antenna splitter saves antenna cable, number of outdoor antennas and mounting space on the roof. As a passive unit it inserts the loss between antenna and the equipment.
Protected voltage level 90 V Peak current 10 KA Insertion loss 0.2 dB To minimise signal loss, use the dummy load on the free (not used) connectors of the antenna combiner. If you have not received the dummy loads together with the SMA connector, you can order them separately.
Fig.:The example of the right installation of directional antennas Warning: The antenna has to be placed according to safety rules of overvoltage protection and grounding. 6. Discreet Antenna Discreet antenna basic parameters: Type Car antenna Frequency 900/1800 MHz Gain Cable Coax cable 174A (5 m) Connector SMA (male)
7. ATEUS – Remote Control Unit (RCU) ATEUS- RCU is optional part The main purpose of the RCU (Remote Control Unit) is to integrate services that need not necessarily be incorporated in the ATEUS – BLUESTAR (not affecting its function directly) but are required by major clients.
Page 25
• The support of SMTP and POP protocols allows the RCU to send info E-mail messages to selected destinations and work as an SMS server where messages are sent in the defined format by E-mail. The ATEUS – BLUESTAR RCU is installed quite automatically using a booting CD, which contains the full OS and all necessary installations.
® 8. ATEUS - BLUESTAR Installation 8.1. Firmware version and limitation ® Before installation of your ATEUS - BLUESTAR Gateway please make upload of new FW to the GW. Actual version of the FW + all SW you find on enclosed CD, or on our website www.2N.cz FIRMWARE uploading procedure: −...
no strong electromagnetic radiation on the BLUESTAR installation site; the ISDN PRI connection must be configured properly and meet ITU-T Q.931-EDSS1 or QSIQ and related recommendations. 8.3. Potential GSM Network Problems The BLUESTAR works reliably even under a 100% load. The following problems may be caused by GSM networks: 1.
8.4. BLUESTAR Installation • Place the BLUESTAR into an environment that corresponds with its working conditions. • Configure the BLUESTAR properly using the configuration software included. • The BLUESTAR mains supply must be backed-up and overvoltage protected. • For a more comfortable gateway administration, it is advisable to have one of available remote control tools on site (ISDN line, analog line, Ethernet).
