Dialogic® DSI SS7MD Programmer’s Manual Issue 3
—E1 interfaces have 32 timeslots numbered 0 to 31. Timeslot 0 is used for frame alignment and timeslot 16 is generally used for signaling or is empty. Hence the normal configuration is to cross connect timeslots 1 to 15 and 17 to 31 between the two ports on each signaling board by setting the <ts_mask> value to 0xfffefffe.
—T1/J1 interfaces have 24 timeslots, numbered 1 to 24. To cross connect all the timeslots on a T1 interface between the two PCM ports on a signaling board, the <ts_mask> value 0x1fffffe should be used.
In duplex mode both PCM ports should have been previously configured under the same type of PCM connector T1, E1 or J1.
