FIELD

TYPE

OPTIONS

 

DESCRIPTION

DEFAULT*

Unit Service State

Toggle

Leave this field at OOS at this time to avoid undesirable reporting of alarms. Set this field to IS

 

 

after completing the configuration of the remaining fields.

 

 

 

 

 

 

T1 Provision

Toggle

YES

Brings up T1 default settings and allows

NO

 

 

 

configuration changes.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

NO

No configuration changes allowed.

 

 

 

 

 

 

T1 Service State

Toggle

Leave this field at OOS at this time to avoid undesirable reporting of alarms. Set this field to IS

 

 

after completing the configuration of the remaining fields, and after configuring the Unit Service

 

 

State field.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Line Code

Toggle

AUTO

When the RLX line code is set to AUTO,

AMI

 

 

 

the module senses the line code and

 

 

 

 

switches from AMI to B8ZS if an encoded

 

 

 

 

signal is detected. After switching to

 

 

 

 

B8ZS, the RLX stays locked in this line

 

 

 

 

code until an LOS is detected at both DS1

 

 

 

 

inputs.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

AMI

Alternate Mark Inversion

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

B8ZS

Bipolar Eight-Zero Substitution

 

 

 

 

 

 

Framing Format

Toggle

AUTO

The system automatically detects,

AUTO

 

 

 

establishes, and displays “AUTO-NR-”

 

 

 

 

and the correct frame format

 

 

 

 

(UNFRAMED, FT ONLY, SF, or ESF).

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

UNFRAMED

Unframed data pattern

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Ft ONLY

Used for SLC framing

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

SF

Super Frame

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

ESF

Extended Super Frame

 

 

 

 

 

 

Network DS1

Toggle

NRZ

This tells the Craft that the network DS1

only)

 

 

 

 

BIPOLAR (locked field

 

 

BIPOLAR

This tells the Craft that the network DS1

 

 

 

source is at the extender card interface. If

in Loop Extender

 

 

 

this option is selected and there is no

chassis only)

 

 

 

extender card, the DS1 signal is cut off. In

 

 

 

 

the Loop Extender chassis, this field is

 

 

 

 

locked at BIPOLAR.

 

 

 

 

 

 

BER Threshold

Toggle

Range of 10-3to 10-9

The average Bit Error Ratios of both the

10-7

 

 

 

incoming DS1 signals are monitored by

 

 

 

 

the RLX. By monitoring BERs, the RLX

 

 

 

 

is capable of triggering a minor alarm

 

 

 

 

when any of the monitored signals

 

 

 

 

degrades below the BER threshold level.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

*Note: The RLXIOR configuration field default values shown in this manual are valid for a system with an MPU installed.
