Testing Type 1 Compatible Tie Lines
To test tie lines configured for Type 1 Compatible, follow these steps:
1Connect an attendant console to station port 10.
2Connect a printer to the SMDR port on the Processor Module. Set the printer port to 1200 baud.
3Set the Tie Line Module switches to E&M signaling/protected mode. Refer to “Administering Tie Lines” on page
4Administer tie line port 1 to Type 1 Standard. Administer the port(s) being tested (ports 2, 3, or 4) to Type 1 Compatible. Refer to “Selecting the Signal Type” on page
5Assign the tie lines to two stations, called station A and station B in this procedure, in order to conduct the tests. Assign the tie lines to a line pool (890 through 899).
6Print out the tie line translation and make sure that the ports are configured as described in step 4.
>If the tie lines are translated correctly, go on to step 7.
>If the tie lines are not translated correctly according to Form 1b, repeat steps 4 through 6. If the tie lines still aren’t translated correctly, call the National Service Assistance Center (NSAC) at
7Remove the bridging clips and connect the tie line ports to the network interface (a
