2 OverviewThis section draws the EFEM ins and outs and summarizes the document structure

2.1 What is the EFEM?

It is a mode. The EFEM aims at showing some information about the mobile regarmobile protocol information. To do so, the EFEM just reads data generated by prosoftware layers in a non-intrusive way.

The EFEM displays the parameters on a screen-by-screen basis. Each screeninformation on a particular field, for example the serving cell, one specific neighbourand so on. You can scroll from one screen to the other using the scrolling keys. Wscreens are available while scrolling depends on the phone context. Section 4.2 goethe details of the screens and the scrolling lists.

2.2 Document OverviewSection 2.1 “What is the EFEM” gives the EFEM main guidelines.

Section 4.2 lists and describes the parameters tracked by the EFEM and showscreenshots, with a mapping of the parameters on a screen-by-screen basis. Keep ithat appendix B "Glossary of the EFEM parameters" is a glossary of all the paramdisplayed by the EFEM.

Section 4.2 also describes the scrolling mechanism, the screen tracking and therelated to the phone. Section 4.2.4 gives the screen-to-parameter path. The way backmeaning the path from a specific parameter to the appropriate screen, is given thappendix B "Glossary of the EFEM parameters", for each parameter.

Section 4.3 explains the data sampling procedure, and how to freeze the data displa

4 EFEM feature descriptionAs mentioned before, the EFEM displays information on a screen-by-screen basissection covers what the screens are, how they are laid out and which one gets diswhen.

4.1 Display Overview

4.1.1 The Concept of Screen

The EFEM aims at displaying near-real time* protocol information. Unfortunately, therso much information that it cannot be all displayed at the same time on the handssubset is displayed at a given time and it is called “screen”. Screens are made up slittle information is repeated between screens. You can change the screen (and thesubset of parameters) viewed through the scrolling keys. One press results in a wdirect change in screen. Therefore, we consider screens to be arranged in a list, wheitem of the list is a screen:

Figure 1 - List of Screens

Lists are circular, i.e. scrolling down on (screen 3) will lead to (screen 1), and vice-v

Now, not all of the information has a meaning at the same time. For instance, h paradoes not mean anything when HCS is not used. To cope with this, information hasgrouped on screens so that most of it is valid under the overall same conditions. Fromit makes sense to change the content of the list of screens according to these oconditions. In order to describe these changes, we shall consider that there are spossible lists, one of which is made available to the user at a given time.

Finally, a parameter is the smallest autonomous piece of information of a screemeaning is protocol specified (please refer to [2]).

Changing the Availability to "on" allows the user to display the EFEM screens.

Note that if the availability is set to "on", after a power-cycle of the phone, the first EFscreen is automatically displayed.

4.2 Display

Screens are put together in modes. Each mode contains a typical list of screens. Thtwo modes: parameters mode, favorites mode. The modes are described in section

The screen can change either because the user scrolls from one to the other (insideor because the EFEM cannot maintain the screen in the current mode.

On top of this, a list of favourite screens can be created and edited by the user. Pleassection 4.2.3 to know how to edit your list of favourite screens and how to browse it.

If you want to be able to get oriented among the EFEM screens, you may be intereshaving a look at section 4.2.5. Appendix B "Glossary of the EFEM parameters" shwhich screen displays a given parameter, for each parameter.

Section 4.3 enlightens the user on data sampling and freezing the data.

4.2.1 Lists

4.2.1.1 List of Parameters

EFEM displays several screens. The screens suitable for display are gathered bycontext (DCH State, non DCH State as defined in [2]) and by GSM context (GSM 3GMeasurement Report). In each context, the screens are arranged in lists, through whuser can scroll. These scrolling lists are described in the three tables below. But the clist is not always the same; which list is chosen to be the current one depends on thecontext. This is because some screens are irrelevant in some contexts.

Three scrolling lists are available for parameters mode: one for WCDMA DCH Scontext, one for WCDMA non DCH State context and one for GSM . Whereas in favomode, the scrolling list does not change with the context

All neighbour cell screens have been gathered together in the non-DCH scrolling(WCDMA). The neighbour cells are sorted by decreasing signal strength. The EFEMnot track the cell chosen. Instead, the position of the neighbour cell in the neighbourmaintained, i.e. if you are viewing the second strongest neighbour cell, you shall alview the second strongest cell, regardless of its scrambling code. If the compositionneighbour cells list changes, or if it is reordered, the information displayed will repreanother cell, but still the second strongest.

Below are screens describing the contents of each of these lists. Please be sure to rfollowing paragraph for general information on the scrolling mechanism.

Scrolling involves the up and down arrows. Once you have entered a list of screscrolling up shows the previous screen, while scrolling down shows the next screen.that it is possible to access the first screen from the last while scrolling down as wellaccess the last screen from the first while scrolling up.

4.2.2.4 TrackingIn order to keep the screen as stable as possible even when the current list chscreens are tracked when possible. This subsection gives a description of how the sget tracked.

To explain this mechanism, a few figures are presented here. They illustrate what hawhen the current list of screens changes. Here is how to read them. Two lists of screerepresented by a scroll with their names and, below, a set of labels for the screens theThe user is supposed to be viewing the list on the left-hand side, when the currensuddenly changes to the one on the right-hand side (as indicated by an arrow). Befolist changes, the user sees the screen in yellow in the left list. After the change inthe user sees the pink (or partly in pink ) screen in the right list. In the destinalist, the last screen viewed in that list before the change occurs is in yellow.

Below are the three three rules applied. Each of them is a use case. If the first rule doapply (i.e. the case does not match), the second is evaluated, then the third if necessaso on. The last rule always applies.

• First Rule:Each time the phone is powered up, the screen displayed is the firsthe current list. Each “last screen viewed” in a list is the first one.

• Second Rule: When the phone context (and therefore the current list of screenavailable) changes, the current screen is tracked. This means that wheneverscreen you see before the change exists in the destination lists, the screen wchange. This is shown on the figure 7 below.On figure 7, the phone has established a call, it is in RRC State DCH. At end ofcall, the connection is released and the phone returns in a non-DCH State. TEFEM tries to display the Cell Measurement screen (destination screen). TheMeasurement screen is available, and the rule described above applies: the sdisplayed is Cell Measurement.

• Third Rule: If the current screen becomes unavailable, either because the listchanged or the screen is no longer relevant, then the first screen in the destinlist is displayed as shown in figure 8. .

4.2.3 Favorites modeIn favorites mode, the screens are displayed whatever the context is.

The list of favourite screens will be of some help to any user who finds that the screenot get displayed for enough time. It can also satisfy those who do not like that the Eswitches between screens and would rather see a screen with lots of stars from ttime than a change in the layout of the parameters. It is also a way of customizinscrolling order in the EFEM screens.

The list of screens is edited by the user. To add a screen, be sure you are in the paradisplay mode; then (short) press left softkey when viewing the corresponding screenotice informs you that the screen has been added to favorites.

In the following sections, the details of each screen are given. Each of these secontains a screen, filled with a snapshot where the figures may not be realistic but maplace where the parameter value is located. Each value is linked to a box holding awhich gives the name and definition of the parameter. The parameter have a tag oscreen, which is always in lower case, whereas the values always are in upper case

When parameters are out of range, exclamation marks (“!”) filling the space allocatethe parameter are displayed. When they are irrelevant to the current context, stars (“*displayed. When they are not used, hashes ("#") are displayed.

Some parameters may be described as "not yet available". Such parameters canobtained from EFEM screens at present.

The first four lines of Serving Cell Reselection screen, all Neighbour Cell Reselecscreens and NAS Mobility screen are common to these screens and give Servinginformation.

If you want to know where a parameter is located, see appendix C "Where is my parain the EFEM screens?".

Figure 9 - Refresh Operation

Note that the EFEM display is only updated every 2 seconds, hence the data displaybe up to 2 seconds old.

Note also that reading the EFEM parameters into display memory takes a small amoprocessing time, hence it is possible that one or more parameters may get updatedthe reading process.

4.3.2 Freezing the Data

The refresh operation can be disabled by hitting “right softkey” while viewing aparameter. An “F” on the top right corner of the screen.

Once refresh is disabled, all parameters will remain static until refresh is enabled aguntil the phone is power cycled. This enables the user to browse information relativeprecise instant, even if they are on different screens.

To re-enable parameter refresh, hit “right softkey” again while viewing a paramescreen. The “F” displayed on the top right corner of the phone disappears.

4.4 Setting continuous backlight onIt is possible to keep the backlight always on. To do so, navigate through the followpath in the menu tree. Change the Backlight item to continuous.

5.2 Release NotesPlease refer to section 4 to get an overall picture of what feature is available on the p

5.3 Known bugs & limitationsThis section covers known bugs and limitations of the EFEM, as well as whatever “nuser-friendly” point. The development team shall try and correct as many of thespossible in subsequent releases. Limitations that are not expected to be worked omore are indicated with a star “*” in the title. If you come upon a new one, please semail describing the problem, with the software version used, to the contact section 5

5.3.1 Data inconsistency*As explained in section 4.3, the parameters are not gathered instantaneously, sreflect the state of the phone up to 2 seconds previously. Furthermore, there may beincoherence in the data displayed due to the non-intrusive nature of the EFEM;incoherence is unlikely to happen. This limitation will not be worked on any further.

Appendix A Frequently asked questions• How do I show and hide FEM screens ?

To show up FEM screens, FEM feature must have been activated first. Se4.1.2 explains how to activate FEM from the main menu.Once the phone is powered up, go to the idle screen. To show up FEM scrtoggle menu + left softkey. To hide FEM screens back, toggle the samesequence.

• The values displayed seem incoherent, or not relevant, or do not change

A really important check to perform as soon as the display seems strange is threfresh is disabled! If refresh is disabled, the parameters values displayed keevalue they had when refresh has been frozen. Values change no more, since ris back enabled. Please refer to section 4.2.2.3 to learn how to enable/direfresh.

• How are the parameters collected? What is the refresh rate?

The parameters are collected every 2 seconds. To learn more about the wwhich parameter values are collected, please refer to section 4.3.1 and se4.3.2.

• At power up, the EFEM screen shows up

When you power down a phone with EFEM on, some settings are saved involatile memory.In that case, during the next power up, the EFEM screensshow up. EFEM screens may have been hidden or not before power down, itnot matter.

• The EFEM screens list is always circular

It is possible to make circular list of the usual menu of the phone be non-circuHowever, this does not affect the EFEM scrolling, which always remains circu
