Description

 

 

MODEM CONFIG

These LEDs indicate the number of modems installed

STATUS

(8, 16, or 24). An indicator is green if all the modems

 

in its group are good. An indicator is amber if one

 

modem in its group is bad.

MODEM PORT

The CSMIM-T1 has three status indicators for each

STATUS

modem port (1 through 24):

 

CD - Data Carrier Detect is a green LED and is on

 

when the carrier has been detected on the telephone

 

line on the corresponding modem.

 

TX - Transmit Data is a green LED that flashes to

 

indicate the corresponding modem is transmitting

 

data.

 

RX - Receive Data is a green LED that flashes to

 

indicate the corresponding modem is receiving data.

NETWORK STATUS

TEST - RED network TEST indicator is ON when the

 

T1 Network Interface is looped back. Loopback tests

 

are activated either locally by the user or by the

 

telephone company.

 

SYNC - GREEN SYNC indicator is ON when the T1

 

engine is properly synchronized with the received

 

network signal and is receiving proper framing

 

information.

 

LOS - RED LOS indicator is ON when the T1 engine

 

is detecting no signal (pulses) on the network

 

interface receiver. When a LOS condition exists, the

 

T1 engine transmits unframed all one (AIS) to the

 

network.
