corresponding solutions.
9.1 Overview
The common problems that may occur on the Assistant are as follows:
z Software Startup
z Data Import
z Map Operation
z Data Display
z Others
Solution
One of the following causes may lead to the license checking failure and the system startup
failure. In addition, the solutions to each exception are as follows:
z The dongle is connected improperly.
− Check whether the dongle is connected.
− Check whether the connection between the dongle and the parallel port or USB port
is normal.
− Check whether the dongle driver is installed correctly. It is recommended that you
reinstall the dongle driver.
z You have changed the system time before starting the Assistant.
Do not change the system time before starting the Assistant. The dongle controls the
authority through the system time. The system time must be the current time or later than
the current time.
z The dongle expires.
The license has a validity period. If the license expires, you cannot use the dongle again.
Thus, you must apply for a new license.
z The GENEX Shared is installed improperly.
Check whether the GENEX Shared components are installed properly. It is
recommended that you reinstall the GENEX Shared components.
If you have installed other software that also requires the dongle and the Assistant cannot be started
normally, you can infer that the two dongles conflict with each other. In this case, you need to uninstall
the Sentinal Drive from the Control Panel and reinstall the GENEX Shared components.
9.2.2 The Files for East Asian Languages Are Not Installed.
Description
The GENEX Assistant cannot be started properly. The system displays the message "Selected
collating sequence not supported by the operating system."
Solution
To install the GENEX series tools in the operating system of non-Chinese version, you need
to install East Asian languages in the Windows operating system. To install East Asian
languages in the Windows operating system, perform the following steps:
Step 1 Choose Start > Control Panel > Regional and Language Options.
Step 2 In the Regional and Language Options dialog box, click the Languages tab.
Step 3 Select Install files for East Asian languages. Then, follow the system prompts to complete
the installation.
----End
Solution
The data processing comes after the data import. Thus, the illegal operation damages the
intactness of the whole process and causes data errors. Therefore, you cannot exit the entire
program or turn off the computer by force during the data import. If any illegal operation or
error occurs, such as sudden power-off, you need to rebuild the dataset and import the data.
Solution
Stop the Probe, and then import the data again in the Assistant.
Solution
Because the data recorded by Huawei RNC contains no GPS information and the data is
recorded according to the local PC time, you need to synchronize the RNC data with the GPS
information. Table 9-1 describes the solutions to two different situations.
The GPS Perform the following steps to display the Huawei RNC data on the
information is map:
required, z Import other data that contains the GPS information.
z Specify the offset of the two start times.
z Click OK. The data is displayed on the map after being imported.
The GPS Perform the following steps to display the Huawei RNC data only on
information is the chart or on the sheet:
not required, z Set the geographic binning mode of the dataset to No Binning or
Time Binning.
z Select the Ignore Position Information check box in the Import
Huawei RNC File dialog box. The system builds the default GPS
information.
z The system displays the data on a chart or a sheet after the data is
imported. Because the GPS information on the map is (0, 0), you can
see only one point on the map.
Solution
When adjusting a certain area to a proper position, click Save Current Position to save the
current position. Alternatively, click Load Position to return to this position.
Solution
You can change the map legend if it does not meet your requirement. To change the map
legend, perform the following steps:
Step 1 Modify the legend of the specific indicator or create a legend on the Map Legend tab page of
the project bar.
Step 2 Select the layer to be modified on the Map Layer tab page.
Step 3 Click Load Legend and select the map legend to be imported.
----End
Solution
During a drive test, the same path can be tested many times and the drive test data can be
saved in the same dataset. You can only see the drive test points located at the top when the
drive test points are of the same longitude and latitude. Therefore, you need to select a time
span through time filtering.
z Scenario 1: Repeat the drive test on the same path for many times and select the entire
test data of one time.
z Scenario 2: In a drive test, you need to select the test data of a certain test track.
To solve this problem, perform the following steps:
Step 1 Activate the indicators on the Map window and activate the same indicators on the Sheet
window. Set the two windows to be co-activated with each other.
Step 2 Manually play back the test process on the Map window. Set the start point of the test track.
On the Sheet window, check the time of the start point and record it by using the
co-activation function. Set the end point of the test track. On the Sheet window, check the
time of the end point and record it by using the co-activation function.
Step 3 Click Time Filter on the map tool bar.
The Time Filter dialog box is displayed.
Step 4 Enter the start time and the end time in the fields of Start Time and End Time.
Step 5 Click OK.

Solution
Stop picking words from screen through the Powerword.
9.4.5 On the Map, the Value on the Label and the Color on the
Legend Are Inconsistent.
Description
When the same GPS points overlaps, the legend displays the latest value, while the label
displays the earliest value. Thus, the value on the label and the color on the legend are
inconsistent.
Solution
The same GPS points can be discretized as follows:
Step 1 Select a data set on the Project tab page in the navigation pane.
Step 2 Choose Modify Dataset Property on the shortcut menu.
A dialog box is displayed.
Step 3 In the displayed dialog box, choose the Binning Type tab page.
Step 4 Check Disperse Data.
Step 5 Click OK.
----End
Solution
The word collector icon is activated only after you open the file on the Word Collector tab
page.
Solution
By default, the Assistant displays all the indicators when you open a project. This is because
some indicators contain no data, and they cannot be displayed. Try to import the data related
to these indicators.
Solution
The files in the format of SD5 cannot be directly imported. Therefore, when the files are
exported in the supported formats through the daemon of the Agilent, some information is
lost.
Solution
There are two possible reasons:
z The Microsoft Office Excel may not be correctly installed on your computer. Reinstall it.
z The Assistant cannot immediately respond to the request of the Excel file. The data,
however, is already exported to a temporary directory. In this situation, you have to
manually open the report. Enter the main directory of the Assistant, find the report in the
directory \Bin\Temp, and open it.
Solution
To solve the problem, pay attention to the following two points:
z The signaling file tracked by the RNC standard interface must match the UE test data.
That is, the two are of the same test.
z The offset is great because the time of the LMT used by the RNC is different from the
UE time. The software does not match the data that is 10 minutes different from the
reference time.
9.6 Others
9.6.1 In What Scenarios Should the GENEX Shared Components
Be Reinstalled?
Description
When should the GENEX Shared components be reinstalled?
Solution
The GENEX Shared components are reinstalled in the following scenarios:
z The dongle cannot be found.
z The GENEX Shared components are updated.
z The GENEX Shared components are not completely installed.
z The Assistant fails to import the data.
z The Assistant cannot open the MapX window.
z The Assistant cannot open the Teechart window.
z The Assistant cannot open the engineering parameter sheet window.
Solution
If engineering parameters fail to be imported, you can infer that the latest template for
engineering parameters has not been used.
You can find the latest template in the software installation directory \sample directory.
If an engineering parameter sheet contains wrong data, the wrong data is marked in red in the
Assistant.
Solution
For details about how to solve this problem, see section 4.3.6 "Configuring Engineering
Parameters.
