the available overhead not already in use by the ESC channel. This can

 

provide a channel of up to 4.4% of the main data rate.

 

If the `Custom Features` feature is available (standard on P300-TCM), then

 

the overhead may be user assigned between the ESC & Aux channels,

 

allowing the desired Async ESC rate to be achieved for distant end M&C (but

 

not massively exceeded), leaving any spare overhead to maximise the Aux

 

channel data rate for BER testing.

IDR

IDR mode is only available if the IDR Option is fitted (standard on P300-IDR

 

and above). The ESC channel is the 8kbps synchronous ESC channel

 

standard on IDR Services (which may also be used for Asynchronous ESC

 

data if the Async ESC feature is available).

 

The Aux channel may be selected to be either 32kbps (in place of one

 

32kbps ADPCM audio ESC channel) or 64kbps (in place of both audio

 

ESC's). This provides a very useful channel rate for BER testing !

Custom Framing

Custom Framing mode is only available if the `Custom Features` feature is

 

available (standard on P300-TCM). Custom framing is based on either IBS

 

or IDR formats and custom framing provides the following advantages:

 

Based on IBS: A variable overhead may be added allowing both ESC & Aux

 

channels to be scaled to virtually any rate. This is achieved by setting the ESC

 

channel to the required Async ESC Baud rate, and changing the split of the

 

allocation of the overhead between ESC & Aux channels. The total overhead

 

then scales to provide the required ESC Baud rate in whatever part of the

 

overhead you have assigned to it, with the rest of the scaled overhead for the

 

Aux channel.

 

Based on IDR: As well as the features described above in standard IDR, it is

 

possible to reduce the normal 96kbps overhead (two audio ESC's) to 64kbps

 

(one audio ESC or 32kbps Aux data) or 32kbps (no audio ESC's & no Aux

 

data). It may also be configured to use 16kbps ADPCM instead of 32kbps,

 

allowing the full IDR features (two audio ESC) to be accommodated in

 

64kbps overhead. More interestingly using the normal IDR overhead of

 

96kbps together with 16kbps ADPCM for the audio ESC's,it may provide all

 

the normal IDR features, but with the second 32kbps audio slot free to

 

configure as a 32kbps Aux channel for continuous BER testing.
