CPS_TSP500 System and Upgrades
CPS_TSP500 consists of three major components including the CPS_TSP500
Application software, NMS drivers and the TSP500 Configuration Tool. This
version operates on Red Hat Enterprise Linux Version 3 only.
TSP500 Systems being upgraded from version CPS_TSP500.02 or earlier
will require a pre-loaded processor card which includes Red Hat Enterprise
Linux Version 3, NMS NA2004-1, and CPS_TSP500.03.000 or later.
All TSP500 systems configurations should be rebuilt using the TSP Configuration Tool to insure that all new capabilities are being utilized to the fullest.

Chapter 1 Overview
System Capacity
The CPS_TSP500 System uses telephony cards, supplied by NMS (Natural
Micro Systems), for domestic and international configurations. There are several factors involved in determining a system’s capacity.
Slots
There are up to six cPCI slots available for configuring the CPS_TSP500 System.
Type of Cards
Different combinations of telephony cards determine the TSP System’s
capacity.
Ports on the Circuit Cards
The NMS T1/E1 Card provides eight or sixteen T1/E1 spans per card, so system capacity can vary greatly depending on the number of ports per card. The
T1 configuration can have from 192 to 384 ports per card and the E1 configuration can have from 240 to 480 ports per card.
Ratio of Trunk and Station Ports
The TSP is configured to maintain close to a three to one (3:1) ratio between
trunks and stations. Standard systems are configured with a (2:1) trunk to station ratio.
Power
Each card requires one or more DC Voltages provided by the redundant
power supplies. Various configurations are selected so that the total power on
each output of the power supplies remains below the maximum output.
Slot Configuration
The system cards are installed in the cPCI slots. The T1 or E1 cards are
installed in the first available slots starting from the bottom, above the CPUCard.
The current maximum Agent configuration allows for 768 channels for dialing and 384 channels for agents for T1, (810 + 390 channels for E1).

The CPS_TSP500 Telephony Cards
Standard telephony cards for the CPS_TSP500 include three models.
Table 1-2: TSP500 Telephony Cards
Chapter 1 Overview
Model Name Description T1Systems
CG 6500C-0L/8TE: 8 Trunk T1/E1 card, 32 DSP
CG 6500C/64-0L/8TE: 8Trunk T1/E1 card, 64 DSP
CG 6500C/64-0L/16TE: 16 Trunk T1/E1 card, 64 DSP
Note:
It is important to understand
that even though each of the
standard Telephony cards
used in the CPS_TSP500
has the ability to interface to
either a T1 or E1 Network, it
is not possible to mix T1 and
E1 Network circuits in the
same CPS_TSP500 system.
All Telephony cards must all
be either T1 or E1.

TSP System Connections
Monitor and Keyboard Connections
Connect a standard 102 key PC keyboard to the connector on the rear of the
CPU Card. Connect a standard VGA monitor to the 15-pin D style connector
on the rear of the CPU Card.
Agent Telephone Connections
There are various methods to connect agent phones to the TSP. The
CPS_TSP500 does not have an integrated analog interface. All agent connections are made using a T1/E1 interface. This means that all agent connections
are considered to be Digital Stations. These can be Inbound Digital Stations
or Outbound Digital Stations.
Inbound Digital Station
A Digital Station Interface where the agent creates a connection to the TSP by
seizing a specific channel on the T1/E1 interface. This method is transparent
to the adjunct and appears to the adjunct as a fixed station. The seizure can be
initiated from a variety of telephony devices, such as:
•Channel Banks
•PBXs
•VOIP gateways
•PSTN
Outbound Digital Station
A Digital Station where the adjunct launches a dial to a specific telephone
number. The dialed number could be to an extension on a PBX, an extension
in a VOIP network, or a telephone number in the PSTN. The dial launched to
the Outbound Digital Station is a classified dial. That is, voice detection or
Answer Supervision is used to determine when the call has connected to the
agent.

Chapter 2 TSP User Procedures
Setting the Time/Date on the TSP
Using “date” to set the time while the TSP is running is dangerous. It could
ruin system files and interfere with the dialing algorithms.
The best way to set the time and date is:
1. Stop the TSP application (“stoptsp” using the Admin Terminal).
2. Use timeconfig to select the time zone. Also select the GMT flag.
3. Use hwclock to set the local time of the TSP in the hardware clock.
Example:
hwclock --set --date="2/20/03 18:24:00" --utc
(note - those are double dashes)
4. Use hwclock to update the system clock: hwclock --hctosys
5. Reboot the TSP. On a reboot, the system time will be taken from the hardware clock.
