Design is available in the examples folder of the installer.

Indeed they were not checked. However, when I checked them, I was also not able to connect using the transceiver toolkit. Is there any other setting I need to change?

Also, how is the BTS GUI reading and writing into the transceivers (BER, FFE, etc)? I presume it uses AvaIon interface. Is there a sample code to see how to connect read and write to the transceivers?
