Patton electronic 6511RC Configuring the SDH path trace parameters, SDH Path Trace parameters

ter applies. When the section trace message length is defined to be one byte, the Matrix Switch will ignore the value of Section Trace.

5.For Section Trace Msg Len, from the drop-down menu, select the value used by the SDH network your Matrix Switch is connected to: either 1, 16, or 64-byte trace messages.

6.For Section Trace J0 Byte enter the value your connected SDH network uses for the J0 byte in the SDH frame.

Note J0 applies only with 1-byteSection Trace Messages. For 16-byte and 64-byte trace messages, the trace message string applies and the value of J0 is ignored.

7.For SDH Payload Mapping, select the payload type corresponding to the way your connected SDH net- work maps the E1 payload into the SDH frame structure. Asynchronous E1 payload mapping is most common, so the factory default value on the Matrix Switch is stm1MappedAsynchE1(0). If your connected SDH network performs byte-synchronous E1 payload mapping, then select stm1MappedBytesynchE1(1) from the drop-down menu.

8.For Tx Payload Scramble, if your SDH network expects to receive a scrambled payload select SDHScram- bleEnable(1) from the drop-down menu, otherwise select sdhScrambleDisable(0).

9.For Rx Payload Scramble, if your SDH network transmits a scrambled payload select SDHScrambleEn- able(1) from the drop-down menu, otherwise select sdhScrambleDisable(0).

10.For SDH Mapping, select the type of AU corresponding to the SDH multiplexing path you desire. To multiplex seven TUG-2s into an AU-3, select au3Mapper(0) (the factory default) from the drop-down menu. To multiplex three TUG-3s into an AU-4, select au4Mapper(1).

11.Click the Modify button to save your work into operating memory (volatile DRAM) and activate the new parameter values.

Configuring the SDH path trace parameters

If you selected AU-4 mapping in the preceding procedure, the Matrix Switch will display one set of five parame- ters pertaining to Path 1. If you selected AU-3 mapping, the Matrix Switch will display three sets of five parame- ters each pertaining to Paths 1, 2, and 3. Do the following to define the values for the SDH path trace parameters:

1.If path trace is enabled in your connected SDH network, go to step 2. Otherwise, because path trace is disabled, in the SDH trace parameters table (see figure 40), for Path-1 Trace Monitor, select pathTraceDis- able(0) from the drop-down menu. Refer to section “Configuring DS0 idle codes” on page 58.
