2.2 GENERAL PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

The Model 2701RC Series are single port E1/FE1 CSU/DSUs that provide high-speed WAN connectivity in a rack card package. Connecting to the serial WAN port of a switch, router or multiplexer, the NetLink-E1™ provides E1 or FE1 access connection at data rates of 2.048 Mbps and nx64. The Netlink-E1™ is an excellent choice when terminating leased line services, Frame Relay backbones, internet access as well as LAN-to-LAN services.

The Netlink-E1™ provides digital access to local WAN services between two facilities over a dedicated 4-Wire circuit. W AN bandwidth, framing and coding options are programmed via internally accessible DIP switches, via a VT -100 type termina l usi ng a Mo del 1 001CC c ontro l card, or SN MP man

agable through the 1001MC. With a 1001CC card, a terminal can manage addressable 2701RC cards using menu driven controls. The Netlink-E1™ uses AMI and HDB3 line coding. Netlink-E1™ also supports a full range of system and di agnostic features that ma k e s y st em s etup easy.

The NetLink-E1™ provides E1 terminations over a modular RJ-48C jack or dual 75 Ohm BNC connectors when using the Model 1001RCM11575 (X.21 interface with dual BNC connectors). Power options include a si ngle AC or DC or redundant AC/DC.

3.0 CONFIGURATION

The 2701RC features configuration capability via hardw are DIP switch es, a software control port, or SNMP through the 1001MC. This section describes all possible hardware and soft ware switch configurations of the network connection.

Note The 2701RC factory default is set to DIP switch control. Soft-

ware control can be enabled either through the control port or SNMP management station. Performing a hardware reset sets the unit for dip switch control.

3.1 DIP SWITCH CONFIGURATION

The Model 2701RC has three 8-bit DIP switches that allow configuration for a wide range of applications. The switches are accessed by removing the card from the chassis.

Figure 1 shows the location of the DIP switches on

the top of the printed circuit board.

Figure 1. Model 2701RC Series top view showing location of DIP switches

DIP Switches S1, S2, and S3 can be configured as either “On” or “Off”. Figure 2 shows the orientation of the DIP switches w ith respect to ON/OFF positions. Default position and descriptions for Switches S1, S2, and S3 are provided on the following pages.

Figure 2. Close-up of DIP switches showing ON/OFF positions

Note Hardware reset allows users to put the 201RC under switch

control. You may force the unit to use the DIP switches as the default configuration source by turning off the unit, setting all the S3 DIP switches to the ON position, then powering on the unit. This will cause the unit to enter a special mode. Then turn of f the unit and change the switch settings to the off position. When you turn the unit on again, the unit will be set up with the selected switch settings.

3.2 SWITCHES S1-1 THROUGH S1-8

Switch S1-1 Line Coding

Use switch S1-1 to control the network line coding options. Set these options to be the same as th e line cod ing g iven to you by your service pro vider . If you are using two Mo del 2701RC s together as short range modems, set both units to HDB3.

S1-1 Line Encoding

HDB3. In this line coding, the transmitter substitutes a deliberate bipolar violation when excessive zeros in the data stream are detected. The receiver re cogni zes these spec ial v iolati on s and deco des t hem a s ze ros. This method enables the network to meet minimum pulse density requirements. unless AMI is required in your application, HDB3 should be used whenever possible.

OFF HDB3

ON AMI

AMI. Alternate Mar k Inversion def ines a puls e as a “mark,” a binary one, as opposed to a zero. In an E1 network connection, signals are transmit ted as a sequence of ones and zeros. Ones are sent as pulses, and zeros are sent as spaces, i.e., no pulse. Every other pulse is inverted from the previous pulse in polarity, so that the signal can be effectively transmitted. This means, however, that a long sequence of zeros in the data stream will cause problems, since the NTU receiving 2.048 Mbps clock. If you must use AMI, you should ensure that the data terminal equipment connected to the unit provides a minimally acceptable pulse density. For this reason, there are advantages to using HDB3 instead.

S1-2 and S1-3 Clock Modes

Set switch S1-2 and S1-3 to determine the 2701RC’s transmitter timing.

Note When the data rate is set to 2.048 Mbps, the unit is forced into

G.703 mode, and it transmits user data on all 32 time-lots. There is no framing information; therefore, the CRC4 MF (SW2-2) switch is ignored. In all other rate settings, the unit employs G.704 framing; TS0 is reserved for signaling.

3.3 SWITCHES S2-1 THROUGH S2-8

Switch S2-1: CAS Multiframe

CAS multiframe uses Timeslot 16 (TS16) to send multiframe (MF) alignment data. In CAS MF, a MF is d efined as 16 fra mes, whe re a f rame co nsists of 32 64-kbps timeslots, numbered 0 to 31. TS16 of the first frame in the MF contains the CAS MF alignment word in the upper four bits. The alignment word is always 0000 (binary). The 2701RC does not perform any signaling in TS16 other than to insert the MF alignment word, in order to maintain MF alignment. When CAS MF disabled, the unit transmits user data in TS16; therefore, up to 31 channels are available for user data. When it is enabled, TS16 is not available to the user. In this case, the user can us e up to 30 channels f or da ta. CAS MF can be used with CRC-4 MF or by itself. When enabled, both units must employ CAS MF; if one unit is set for CAS MF, and the oth er is not, the one us ing CAS MF will detect a loss of sync.

Switch S2-2: CRC-4 Multiframe

In framed mode, S2-2 is used for CRC-4 MF. When CRC-4 is enabled, the unit mon ito rs the i ncoming data stream for C RC-4 e rrors . I t transmits CRC-4 error counts to the transmitting unit.. When using timeslot zero (TS0), excessive errors may cause loss of frame or loss of sync. If CRC4 MF is used, both units must be set for set for CRC-4 MF. Otherwise, the one using CRC-4 MF will detect loss of sync.

S2-2 Option

Off CRC-4 Disabled On CRC-4 Enabled

Switch S2-3: Remote Digital Loopback Type

The user can set this sw itch to select the type of remote loop that will be initiated by the Model 2701. If set to V.54, the Model 2701 will initiate a V.54 loop when Remote Loop is selected by the front panel switches. If set to CSU, the Model 2701 will initiate a CSU loop when Remote Loop is selected by the front panel switches.

S2-3 RDL Type

Off Initiate a V.54 RDL loop when selected On Initiate a CSU loopback when selected

Switch S2-4: RDL Response

V.54 and CSU Loopbacks are special in-band loopback facility that sends a pseudo-random pattern over the data stream. This is useful for campus applications when you need to put a remote unit in loopback. The unit responds to the V.54 loopback command, and the whole pro

cess takes only a few seconds to complete. When V.54 Loopback is disabled, the unit will not be able to send or respond to V.54 or CSU loopback commands. The duration of the loopback is limited by the loop back timeout setting.

S2-4 Option

Off RDL Response Enabled On RDL Response Disabled

Switch S2-5: Test mode request from DTE

Use Switch S2-5 to allow Model 2701RC to enter loopback tests when the DTE raises the appropriate loop request pin.

S2-5 Setting

Off Response to DTE Loopback Request Enabled On Response to DTE Loopback Request Disabled

Switch S2-6: Front Panel Switches

As the front pan el s witc he s m ay be in adv ertently toggled, or in the event that the end-us er may not ne ed to u se the swit ches, the in sta ller m ay dis able the front panel switches. Set switch S2-6 to determine whether the front-panel toggle switches are enabled or disabled.

S2-6 Option

Off Front Panel Switches Enabled On Front Panel Swi tc hes Dis ab led

Switch S2-7: VT-100 or NMS Selection

Switch S2-7 selects the configuration mode that the G.703 Access Rack Card uses. When VT-100 is selected, configuration and status can be setup through a VT-100 terminal using a 1001CC. When NMS (network management station) is selected, configuration and status can be setup and maintained through SNMP using a 1001MC. Please refer to the 1001MC user manual when using this mode.

Note DIP switch configuration can be used regardless of the setting

of this switch. The DIP switches are enabled through the VT -100 screens, NMS, or by performing a hardware reset.

3.4 SWITCHES S3-1 THROUGH S3-8

Switch S3: DIP switch or NMS (network management system)/VT-100 control

The Model 2701 RC ca n be co nfigure d a nd manage d via DIP sw itch es or NMS/VT-100 through a Patton Model 1001MC card or 1001CC card, respectively (refer to the 1001MC or 1001CC user manuals when using

this mode). Switch S3 selects control and management mode for the Model 2701RC.

Table 4 : DIP switch S3 settings

S3-1 to S3-8 Management selection

All Off DIP switch control (factory default) All On Hardware reset

Hardware reset. The Model 2701RC is set at the factory for DIP switch control. If the user ha s c hanged con trol to NMS/VT-100, and then needs to revert to DIP switch control, use the following p rocedure:

1. Pull the Model 2701RC out of the rack. Make a note of the DIP S1,

S2, and S3 settings.

2. Set S3 switches to the ON position.

3. Install the card into the rack and power up the unit.

4. Pull the card out again and change the switches to the desired set-

tings. The unit is now under DIP switch control.

5. Install the card back into the rack.

NMS/VT-100 Control. When switches S3-1 to S3-8 are set to a setting other than the ones shown in

Table 4, the Model 2701RC enters NMS/ VT-100 control. While under NMS/VT-100 control, each of the Model 2701RC cards housed in a rack must have an address.

Table 5 and Figure 3 show examples of address settings. The table follows the hexadecimal system, where switc h S3-1 is the leas t sign ifi cant bit (LSB), and S3-8 is the most significant bit (MSB). A switch in the On position repre sents binary zero, and Off represents binary one (see Figure 3).

3.7 VT-100 SOFTWARE CONFIGURATION

This section describes the VT-100 configuration using a 1001CC. For information on configuration using SNMP through the 1001MC, please refer to the 1001MC user manual.

The NetLink-E1™rack card features a VT-100 menu-driven system that may be used for local configuration and management. Cards are config ured and managed by sett ing a separate ad dress for each card using hardware switches and then accessing each card using a rack mounted NetLink Model 1001CC control card. The software management system is described below. For more information on the Model 1001CC, please refer to the Model 1001CC user manual.

Note The Model 1001CC uses an internal bus to communicate with

the 2701RC. When using software configuration, the rear card for the 2701RC should be configured with FRGND and SGND connected. Please see section 3.2 for more information on configuring your rear card.

Accessing the Menu System

1. Set the Card Address as described in Section 3.2.1.

2. Set S2-7 to the ON position to select VT-100 control.

3. Power up the terminal and set its RS-232 port as follows:

9600 Baud 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, no parity Local echo off ANSI or VT-100 emulation

4. Here is an example of a terminal emulator setup session. In normal

font are the vari ous p arameter types . In bold type are th e values tha t should be used for best results. Your terminal program’s setup screen may differ from this one:

5. Install the 2701RC and the 1001CC Control Card into the rack sys-

tem (see Section 4.0 Installation, page 32, to install the 2701RC; see the 1001CC Use r Manual to Ins tall the Model 1001CC Card and to connect the RS-232 port).

6. After your 2701RC units are installed and you have set up your

Model 1001CC and VT-100 terminal as described above, you are ready to access the 2701RC cards. This is done by selec ting the address for a card using the command “Ctrl-b” address <CR>. For example, if your 2701RC has an address of “64”, type the following:

Ctrl b (Hold down the Ctrl key and depress the ‘b’ character) 064 (Type in the address ‘64’) <CR> (Depress the ‘Enter/Carriage Return’ key)

The password prompt will be displayed as shown below.

Note The password is case sensitive. Type the password and press

<Enter>. The factory default password for the unit is:

patton

Note If the entry is incorrect, the password screen will clear and

prompt you again for the correct password. The password you enter will not be shown. For security, asterisks will be displayed for each letter you type. The maximum length of the password, which can include any character the terminal can generate, is 16 characters.

7. The NetLink-E1™ will then display the Main Menu screen.

Introduction to Main Menu

After entering the password, you may access all of the system’s functions and parameters. The Main Menu looks like this:

1. To make a selectio n, k ey the highlighted lett er that corresponds to a

menu selection.

2. To execute the selection, type [Enter/CR].

3. To toggle between options on a highlighted selection, Press [space].

4. Select Save Changes from Main Menu after making modifica-

tions to any Model 2701RC parameter. Otherwise, changes will be lost when the Model 2701RC is turned off.

The Main Menu options are briefly described below:

System Configuration opti ons allow y ou to change va rious aspect s of the Model 2701RC operation, e.g., framing, line coding, and aggregate bandwidth.

System Diagnostics/Statistics options allow you to monitor the network performance, initiate V.54 loops, local loops, and send test patterns. Netw ork perfo rma nc e p ara me ters ar e upd ate d onc e a se c ond, giving you the ability to quickly determine if there is a problem.

Unit Options enable you to customize the Model 2701RC for your location. You can change the defau lt heade r names to give each u nit

a unique name and password. Also, you can reset the unit to its default setti ngs withou t the man ual. It al so has a Service I nformation screen in case you need technical assistance from Patton.

Save Changes. Once you have configured the unit to your satisfaction, you can save the changes permanently by executing the Save Changes command. This will update the unit’s configuration and save all the parameters to permanent memory.

Logoff. For security, log off the control menu by executing the Logoff command. This will blank the screen until an [Enter] key is pressed.

System Configuration

The System Configuration menu looks like this:

The System Configuration options are described below:

Line Format: G.703 (default) Options: G.703, G.704 G.703: G.703 is unframed, 2.048Mbps. In this case, the DTE rate is

equal to the line rate at the network interface (NI). CAS MF and CRC-4 are disabled.

G.704: G.704 reserves TS0 fo r sig nal in g and fram e al ign me nt. M ax imum data rate depends on whethe r CAS MF is enabled or not.

Line Coding: HDB3 (default) Options: AMI, HDB3 HDB3: In this line coding, the transmitter substitutes a deliberate

bipolar violation when excessive zeros in the data stream are detected. The receiver recognizes these special violations and decodes them as zeros. This method enables the network to meet minimum pulse density requiremen ts. U nless AMI is required in your application, HDB3 should be used whenever possible.

AMI: Alternate Mark Inversion defines a pulse as a "mark,” a binary one, as opposed to a zero. In a E1 network connection, signals are transmitted as a sequence of ones and zeros. Ones are sent as pulses, and zeros are sent as spaces, i.e., no pulse. Every othe r pulse is inverted from the previous pulse in polarity, so that the sig

nal can be effectively transmitted. This means, however, that a long sequence of zero s in the dat a strea m wil l cause problem s, sinc e the NTU receiving the signal relies on the signal to recover the 2.048 Mbps clock. If you must use AMI, you should ensure that the data terminal equipment connected to the unit provides a minimally acceptable pulse density. For this reason, there are advantages to using HDB3 instead.

Clocking: Network (default) Options: Network, Internal, External Network: This is the most com mo nly used setting when co nne cti ng

to a carrier’s network. In this mode, the unit recovers the clock from the received signal and uses it to transmit data. In this way the unit remains synchronized to a master clock. In campus applications, one of the units must be set to Internal clock, and the other end is set to Network clock. At all times, there must be only one clock source. Othe rwis e, c lo ck s lips and framing errors and bit error s m ay occur.

Internal: This is commonly used in campus applications, where the unit is not conn ec ted to the publ ic telephone network di rec tly. In this mode, the unit uses the on-board oscillator as the transmit clock source.

External: In this mode, the u nit requ ires a clock s ignal fr om the DTE via the external clock pin on the DTE interface connector. Most applications will use Network or Internal clock mod es.

Line Build Out: 120 ohm (default) Options: 120 ohm, 75 ohm

120 ohm: Use with 120 ohm RJ-48C connector. 75 ohm: Use with the 1001RCM11575 rear card. (Dual BNC con-

nectors)

CRC-4 Setting: Disabled (default) Options: Enabled, Disabled CRC-4 Multiframe: CRC-4 Multiframe uses TS0 to carry CRC-4

information. It operates independently of CAS MF. When CRC-4 is enabled, the unit monitors the incoming data stream for CRC-4 errors. It transmits CRC-4 error counts to the transmitting unit . Excessive errors may cause loss of frame or loss of sync. If CRC-4 MF is used, both units must be set for CRC-4 MF; otherwise, the one using CRC-4 MF will detect a loss of sync.

CAS MF Setting: Disabled (default) Options: Enabled, Disabled CAS MF: CAS multiframe uses Timeslot 16 (TS16) to send multi-

frame (MF) alignment data. In CAS MF, a MF is defined as 16 frames, where a fram e consi st s of 32 64kbp s tim eslo ts, numbered 0 to 31. TS16 of the first frame in the MF contains the CAS MF alignment word in the uppe r four bits . The alignme nt word is a lways 0000 (binary). The 2715 does not perform any signaling in TS16 other than to insert the MF alignment word, in order to maintain MF alignment. When CAS MF dis abled , the unit trans mit s use r data in TS16; therefore, up to 31 channels are available for user data. When it is enabled, TS16 is not avail abl e to the user. In this case, the user can use up to 30 channels for data. CAS MF can be used with CRC-4 MF or by itself. When enabled, both units must employ CAS MF; if one unit is set fo r CAS MF, and the other is not, the one using

V.54 Loops: Enabled (default) Options: Enabled, Disabled This is a special in-band loopback facility that sends a special

pseudo-random pattern over the data stream. This is the only loop

back that the unit ca n ini tia t e. Th is is useful for campus applications when you need to put a remote unit in loopback. The unit responds to the V.54 loopback command, and the whole process takes only a

few seconds to co mp lete. When V. 5 4 Loo pback is disabled, t he un it will not be able to s end or respond t o V.54 loopback comman ds. The duration of the loopback is limited by the loopback timeout setting. While V.54 is being activated, user data is overwritten.

Default Config Source: Switch (default) Options: EEPROM, Switch The Model 2701RC can be initialized via the configuration in the on-

board permanent memory (EEPROM) or via the internal DIP switches (Switc h). Once th e unit is powered u p, you m ay chan ge the settings through the control port or the DIP switches. When you make changes through the control port, no changes will take place or be saved to permanent memory until you Save Changes (Main Menu option "d" + [Enter]). When you make changes through the switches, all changes are made immediately.

Note If you do not have a terminal, you may force the unit to use the

DIP switches as the default configuration source by turning of f the unit, setting all the DIP switches to the ON position, then powering on the unit. This will cause the unit to enter a special mode. Then turn off the unit and change the switch settings to the desired settings. When you turn the unit on again, the unit will be set up with the selected switch settings.

DS0 Channel Configuration Menu [Bandwidth/# Channels = 2,048k/na] (default).

The Channel Configuration Menu has a sub-menu that looks like this:

2701RC

You may configure the Model 2701RC to operate with any combination of active and inactive DS0 channels in this screen. When you execute the Save Changes command, the selected settings will be saved to permanent memory, and the system will be updated to operate with the new channe l settings.

Note In Unframed format, the Bandwidth Selected will display

“2.048k,” and the Total Channels will display “na.” When using the DIP switches to set the bandwidth, the starting channel is always channel 1 or 0.

Front Panel Switches: enabled (default) Options: enabled, disabled As the front panel switches may be inadvertently toggled, or in the

event that the end-user may not need to use the switches, the installer may disable the front panel switches. Set switch S2-6 to determine whethe r the front-panel toggle switches are enabled or disabled.

4.1 INSTALLING THE MODEL 2701RC INTO THE CHASSIS

The Model 270 1RC is c omprise d o f a fron t card and a re ar card . The t wo cards meet inside the rack chassis and plug into each other by way of mating 50 pin card edge connectors. Use the following steps as a guideline for installing each Model 2701RC into the rack chassis:

1. Slide the rear card into the back of the chassis along the metal rails provided.

2. Secure the rear card using the metal screws provided.

3. Slide the card into the front of the chassis. It should meet the rear card when it’s almost all the way into the chassis.

4. Push the front card gently into the card-edge receptacle of the rear card. It should “click” into place.

5. Secure the front card using the thumb screws.

Note Since the Model 1001R14 chassis allows “hot swapping” of

cards, it is not necessary to power down the rack when you install or remove a Model 2701RC.

4.2 CONNECTING TO A DTE DEVICE

The serial port on most rear interface cards are hard-wired as “DCE” (Data Circuit Terminating Equipment). The interfaces are designed to plug into a DTE such as a terminal, PC or host computer. When making the connection to your DTE device, use a “straight through” cable of the shortest possible length--we recommend 6 feet or le ss. When purchas

ing or constructing an interface cable, refer to the pin diagrams in Appendix D on page 63, Appendix E on page 64, Appendix F on page 65, and Appendix G on page 66 as guides.

4.3 CONNECTING TO A DCE DEVICE

The rear interface cards on most interface modules are hard wired as “DCE”. Therefore, you must use a nul l mode m cabl e when connectin g to a modem or other DCE device. When purchasing or constructing a null modem interface c abl e, use the pin diagrams in

Appendix E on p age 64,

Appendix F on page 65, and Appendix G on page 66 as a guide.

Note Pin-out requirements for null modem applications vary between

equipment manufacturers. If you have any questions about a specific installation, please contact Patton Electronics Technical Support.

4.4 CONNECTING THE E1 INTERFACE

The E1cables shall be a minimum of 26 AWG, acceptable for external use, and be rated for the application with respect to voltage, current, anticipated temperature, flammability, and mechanical serviceability.

CAUTION

Les cables E1 doivent etre de section minimum 26AWG, accepte pour utilisation externe, et quote pour des applications avec respect du voltage, courant, temperature anticipe, et service mechanique.

ATTENTION

Als E1 Kabel ist mindestens ein 26 AWG Kabel zu verwenden, geeignet für externen Gebrauch, und zugelassen für die Anwendung bezüglich Spannung, Strom, Temperatur, Feuerfestigkeit und mechanische Wartbarkeit.

VORSICHT

Los cables para la coneccion E1 deberán ser de un grosor mínimo de AWG 26, aceptable para uso externo, y deberán tener la clasificación requerida con respecto a voltaje, corriente, temperatura anticipada, inflamabilidad, y utilidad mecánica.

PRECAUCI

The Network Line Interface is an eight position keyed modular jack configured as a RJ-48C (see Figure 2). This interface will need to be configured to match the lin e paramete rs (i.e. framing, li ne coding, etc. ) supplied by the cent ral office.

Figure 2. NetLink-E1™ twisted pair line interface

Note If the NetLink-E1™ is being used for private short range modem

applications, the twisted pair cable connected to its port will need to be a cross-over cable. See Appendix D on page 63 for interface pin assignments.

4.5 CONNECTING DUAL-COAX BNC (75 OHM)

In addition to the 120 ohm twisted pair connection, the Model 2701RC, when used with the 1001RCM11575 rear card, is equipped with dual female BNCs (TX and RX) for connection to a 75 ohm dual coax G.703 network interface.

5.0 OPERATION

Once the NetLink-E1™ is installed and configured properly it is ready to place into operation. This section describes the function of the LED indi cators, and the use of the loopback and pattern test modes.

5.1 LED DESCRIPTIONS

The NetLink-E1™ is equipped with nine LED indicators that monitor the status o f comm unic ation.

Figure 3 shows the l ocati on of the LEDs on the

NetLink-E1™ Series front panel.

LOS

ERR

TXD When the unit sends a one, the TXD LED is green. When it

sends a zero, the TXD LED is yellow. Moreover, the TXD LED is active only in acti ve DS0 chann els. In in activ e chann els, th e TXD LED is off.

RXD When the unit rec ei ves a one , the R XD LE D is gree n. Whe n it

receives a zero, the RXD LED is yellow. Moreover, the RXD LED is active only in active DS0 channels. In inactive chan

nels, the RXD LED is off.

LOS The Loss of Sync LED lights when the unit loses synchroniza-

tion with the incomin g signal. This may happen when th ere is a framing mismatch or a loss of signal. In unframed mode, the LOS LED monitors the status of the transmit clock.

ALM The alarm LED indicates the presence of a Blue or Yellow

Alarm, or Out of Frame condition. The ALM LED will blink on every half-second. Alarms may occur due to:

• Loss of Synchronization

• Loss of Frame

• AIS (Blue Alarm)

• RAI (Yellow Alarm)

ERR The error LED indicates various error conditions, including

framing bit errors, excessive zeros, controlled slips, severe errors, or bit errors (when sending V.52 test patterns). When sending a test pattern, the LED will remain lit if the unit does not receive the identical pattern. When it receives the correct pattern, the LED will turn off. If error insertion is on, the LED will blink once a second if everything is operating properly.

TST The test indi cator LED blink s with a s peci fic p atte rn dep endin g

on the type of t est mo de. Whe n the unit is in lo cal an alog lo op, the LED will blink on briefly. When the unit is in remote loop, the TST LED will blink off briefly. When the unit is sending a test pattern or is putting the remote unit into V.54/CSU loopback, the TST LED will stay on. These are the test modes:

• V.54/CSU Loopback & V.52 Patterns

• Local Loopback

PWR The power indicator LED will remain lit while the unit is pow-

ered. It turns off when the unit is not powered.

5.2 LOOP (V.54 & TELCO) DIAGNOSTICS

The NetLink-E1™ offers three V.54 loop diagnostics and is compatible with two Telco loop diagnostics. Use these diagnostics to test the CSU/ DSU and any communication links. These tests can be activated via the software co ntro l port (see on the serial port interface or the front panel switch.

“System Diagnostics” on page 35), via signals

Operating Local Loopback (LL)

The Local Loopback (LL) test checks the operation of the local NetLinkE1™, and is performed separately on each unit. Any data sent to the local NetLink-E1™ in this test mode will be echoed (returned) back to the user device (i.e., characters typed on the keyboard of a terminal will appear on the terminal screen).

— Activate the “LL” signal on the DTE. If you are not sure whi ch

lead is the “LL” signal, refer to Appendix D on page 63.

— Toggle the front panel switch to the “Local” position.

2. Verify that the da ta terminal e quipment is op erating p roperly a nd can

be used for a test.

3. Perform a V.52 BER (bit error rate) test as described in section 5.3,

“Bit error rate (V.52) diagnostics” on page 57. If the BER test equipment indicates no faults, but the data terminal indicates a fault, follow the manufacturer’s checkout procedures for the data terminal. Also, check the interface cable between the terminal and the NetLink-E1.

Operating Remote Digital Loopback (RL)

The Remote Digital Loopback (RL) test checks the performance of both the local and remote NetLink-E1™, as well as the communication link between them. Any characters sent to the remote NetLink-E1™ in this test mode will be returned back to the originating device (i.e, characters typed on the keyboard of the lo cal term ina l will appear on the local term inal screen after having been passed to the remote NetLink-E1™ and looped back).

Figure 5. Remote loopback

There are two Remote Loops that can be initiated from the NetLink-E1 unit:

• V.54 Loop

• CSU Loop The user can s elect the t ype of loop that c an be ini tiated f rom the Sys tem

Diagnostics/Statistics screen or with Switch S2-1. Select “c” RDL Ty pe and press the <spa ce bar> to toggle between the CSU lo op and th e V.54 loop. When a loopback is initiated this is the type of loop that the unit uses to loop up the remote unit.

Note The NetLink-E1 will respond to both loops regardless of the

state of the RDL Type.

To perform an RDL test, follow these steps:

1. Activate RDL. This may be done in one of the following ways:

— Using the 1001CC, enter Remote Loop from the System

Diagnostics/Statistics menu and toggle the <Spacebar> until “RL” appears next to the Remote Loop option.;

— Activate RL from the HTTP browser screens when using the

1001MC card

— Activate the “RL” signal on the DTE. If you are not sure which

lead is the “RL” signal, please refer to section Appendix D, “E1 Interface Pin Assignment” on page 63.

— Set the front panel switch to ‘Remote’.

2. Perform a bit error rate test (BER T) u sing the in ternal V.52 generato r

(as described in

section 5.3, “Bit error rate (V.52) diagnostics” on page 57), or using a separate BER Tester. If the BER test indicates a fault, and the Local Line Loopback test was successful for both NetLinks, you may have a problem with the twisted pai r line connec tion.

CSU Loop

The NetLink-E1™ also responds to central office initiated loop commands. The NetLink-E1 will implement the “loop up” command when it recognizes the pattern “10000” in the data stream for a minimum of 5 seconds. The “l oop down” com mand is implemented by the p attern “100” in the data stream for a minimum of 5 seconds.

The NetLink-E1 will respond to Universal Loopback De-activate to clear all central office loops.

5.3 BIT ERROR RATE (V.52) DIAGNOSTICS

The NetLink-E1 offers three V.52 Bit Error Rate (BER) test patterns. These test pat tern s may be invoked al ong with the LA L and RDL test s to evaluate the unit(s) and the communication links.

When a 511 or 2047 test is invoked, the NetLink-E1 gener ates a p s eud orandom bit pattern of 511 bits, 20 47 bits or 220 bits, resp ec tiv el y, using a mathematical polynomial. The receiving NetLink- E1 then decodes the received bits using the same polynomial. If the received bits match the agreed upon pseudo-random pattern, then the NetLink-E1™(s) and the communication link(s) are functioning properly.

511 Initiates a built-in 511 bit pseudo-random pattern

generator and detector.

2047 Initiates a built-in 2047 bit pseudo-random pattern

generator and detector.

To perform a V.52 test, follow these steps:

1. Activate the local loopback or remote loopback diagnostic.

2. Activate the test pattern. This may be done in one of following ways:

—Enter Test Pattern from the System Diagnostics/Statistics

menu and toggle the <Spacebar> until the desired test pattern appears.

One of two result codes will appear to the right of the Test

Pattern listing: OK—Indicates that the received test pattern is error-free. BE—Indicates that there are errors in the test pattern (to delib-

erately insert errors in the pattern, toggle Error Insertion to ON).

— Using the HTTP/SNMP sc reen s, s el ec t the appropriate test pat-

tern.

— Toggle the front panel switch to either PAT or PAT/E (Test Pat-

tern with Error Injection).

CABLE RECOMMENDATIONS

The Patton NetLi nk E1 ™ Se ries h as b een performa nce tested by Patton technicians using twisted-pair cable with the following characteristics:

Wire Gauge Capacitance Resistance

19 AWG 83nf/mi or 15.72 pf/ft. 0.0163 ohms/ft. 22 AWG 83nf/mi or 15.72 pf/ft. 0.0326 ohms/ft. 24 AWG 83nf/mi or 15.72 pf/ft. 0.05165 ohms/ft.

To gain optimum performance from the Model 2701RC Series, please keep the following guidelines in mind:

• Always use twisted-pair wire—this is not an option.

• Use twisted pair wire with a capacitance of 20pf/ft or less.

• Avoid twi st ed pair wire thinner than 26 A WG (i.e. avo id AWG numbers higher than 26)

• Use of twisted pair with a resistance greater than the above specifications may cause a reduction in maximum distance obtainable. Functionality should not be affected.

• Many environmental factors can affect the maximum distance obtainable at a particular site.
