By using the IxHssAcc API, the following settings should be considered when
configuring HSS interface for E1 operation:
Frame size 256 bits (for E1).
Frame sync simultaneous with first bit in first timeslot - TX frame offset and RX
frame offset should be set due to HSS logic, different values due to external device
can be accommodated.
Select use of input/output TX/RX frame syncs.
Select use of input/output clock, and clock speed.
Select negative/positive clock for generating/sampling frame in transmit/receive.
Select negative/positive clock for generating/sampling data in transmit/receive.
Frame sync active level (high/low).
MSb/LSb-first ordering for transmit and receive.
Data polarity, maintain or invert.
Select to not use FBit at frame start.
Select value for idle timeslots on transmit and unused bit in 56k timeslots.
Select buffer size.
Configure lookup tables.
17.6.3 MVIP
MVIP provides a method of interlacing multiple E1 streams onto a single E1 line, and
multiple T1 streams onto a single T1 line. Increasing the clock speed and alternating
various timeslots helps provide this functionality. A single T1 line can also be mapped
into an E1 line.
By using the IxHssAcc API, the following settings should be considered when
configuring the HSS interface for MVIP:
Set frame size for MVIP.
