This practice provides information on the input messages (commands), response messages, and
automatic messages used with the Telecom Solutions DCD 500 series shelf and the NAS System. The
Page 1
TMSL 097-45018-02Issue 3: Mar 96
language used in this practice is Transaction Language 1 (TL1). A Maintenance Interface, System
(MIS) card (p/n 090-45018-14) must be installed in
the DCD-500 series system, and the DCD system
used in conjunction with the NAS software to use the
tools and information presented here. Any command
pertaining to a speciÞc DCD card (e.g., MRC-E or
PSM-E) requires that the speciÞed card be installed.
1.02This document is reissued for the following
reasons; changes and additions are marked with
change bars:
•Update the following commands to include pa-
rameters for the MRC-EA card:
—EDIT PARAMETER T1
—SET-TH-T1
—SET-ATTR-T1
—INIT-REG-T1
—RTRV-PRMTR-T1
—RTRV-COND-T1
3. DESCRIPTION
A. Conventions
3.01The syntax and language structure used with
the 500 series systems comply with speciÞcations in
BellcoreÕs TR-TSY-000831, Section 12.1 of OTGR Issue 2, Feb. 1988. As a subset of the ITUÕs MML (ManMachine Language), the language speciÞes Applications Messages which allow communication between
an OS (Operations System) and an NE (Network Element) such as one of the 500 series systems.
3.02The following conventions are used in this
manual to deÞne the syntax of input and response
messages:
< >enclose parameters which must be used
[ ]enclose optional parameter(s)
{ }enclose a series of parameters, at least one of
which must be used
|separates a list of parameters within the { }
symbols, of which one and only one parameter may be selected
—RTRV-ALM-T1
—RTRV-ATTR-T1
—RTRV-TH-T1
•Update documentation where necessary to in-
clude information regarding the MRC-EA card.
•Update Table A to include the new parameters
2. USING THIS PRACTICE
2.01Part 3, Description, describes how to use the
commands and read the responses, including: explanations of the typestyle conventions and syntax, Þnding a command to perform a desired task, deÞnitions
of the parameters, and other useful information.
2.02Part 4, Commands, contains the commands,
each one starting at the top of a page. Each command
has a description, a format, examples, values for the
parameters, and responses to the command.
" "enclose a report of an alarm or event
:separates parameter blocks
...indicates one or more parameters are re-
peated an appropriate number of times, and
hence are omitted
,separates parameters within a block
;terminates a command and causes execution
of the command
B. Application Message Types
3.03
Two TL1 standard types of messages are used:
a.Input/Response, a command with valid pa-
rameters is input to the 500 series system and
a response message is returned.
b.Automatic, a message is generated by the 500
series system, stored in the Event Log, and
sent to the Communications Port.
Page 2
Issue 3: Mar 96TMSL 097-45018-02
C. Command Definitions
3.04A command consists of a Command Code fol-
lowed by a colon, parameter blocks separated by colons, and a terminating semicolon; see Figure 1 for an
example. A command can only be entered at the semicolon prompt (;).
3.05Parameter blocks may be null (contain no pa-
rameters), or contain one or more parameters. Two colons occur next to each other if a parameter block is
null. (Some parameters in the complete TL1 language
set are not used. These unused parameters are left
null in this command set.) Colons after the last active
parameter and before the semicolon need not be entered.
Multiple parameters in a parameter block are
3.06
separated by commas. Two commas occur next to
each other if a parameter is null. Commas after the
last active parameter and before a colon or semicolon
need not be entered.
3.07Entering a semicolon at the end of the com-
mand causes the command to execute.
3.08If any mistakes are made while entering a
command, send the bad command and reenter a good
command. The system does not recognize edited
commands.
3.09In this practice, uppercase letters in a com-
mand are parameter values to be entered as shown.
Lowercase letters in a command indicate a choice of
values is available for that parameter. The values speciÞc to that command are listed with the command.
D. Response Definitions
3.10A response is returned by the 500 series sys-
tem when it receives a command. All responses include the source identiÞer (the sender of the
response), the date and time, and the correlation tag
of the given command. A response to a command
may be a Completed or an Error response.
Completed: The command has been completed
a.
or information requested is returned. This re-
sponse carries the COMPLD message.
b.Error: The command was denied, and the re-
sponse carries the DENY message. The Error
Code parameter (errcde) shows the reason.
Note: All external communications ports are
software-configurable to set one character as
the end-of-text message. This character does
not replace the TL1 specified end-of-text message terminator (;). Refer to the instructions
for the ED-EQPT command for additional information.

E. Parameter Definitions and Values
3.11The TL1 commands use parameters that di-
rect and constrain their operation. The general definitions of the parameters, and the type of message
in which they appear, are listed in Table A. The
values of the parameters are listed with the command.

reported.
F.Task/Command Cross-reference
3.12Consult Table B to Þnd the command appro-
priate for a task. This table also lists whether or
not a command is password protected. Protected
commands can only be accessed if the user logged
on with a password. Unprotected commands can be
accessed with or without a password.

This parameter is the communications port baud rate; the baud rate for COM2
can only be changed via DIP switch on the MIS card; ports 1 and 3 are softwareconfigurable only.
This parameter specifies the priority level of the communications port from 0 to 3;
0 inhibits alarm/event messages from being transmitted from a port; 1 is the
highest priority, and 3 is the lowest.
This parameter indicates the type of communications device used (X25 [PAD],
MODEM, or [dumb] TERM)
This parameter is the condition effectivity. It reports that a standing condition is
raised (SC), or that it is cleared (CL). This parameter is the only difference
between a response that raises a standing condition, and a response that clears
the same standing condition. If a standing condition is raised, it can be retrieved
using the RTRV-COND-ALL or RTRV-COND-EQPT commands.
condition reported by the system, enclosed within escaped quotes (\"). The system returns one conddescr per response message.
This parameter is the condition type. When used in a command, it indicates the
type of alarm condition requested. When seen in a response , it indicates the type
of alarm condition being reported, which is fur ther explained in the conddescr
parameter. When seen in an automatic message, it indicates the type of alarm
condition reported as either raised or cleared (see the conddescr parameter).

fmodeCommandThis parameter specifies the framing format for the selected MRC reference.
keepaliveCommand,
response
This parameter is the correlation tag. The operator must enter a ctag for each
command. This is the method the system uses to communicate the results of the
command. For example, if “111” was entered as a ctag in a command, the
response contains “111 COMPLD” or “111 DENY”.
If two commands were entered with the same ctag and one command was completed but the other was in error, both responses would have the same identification number. The operator may not be able to identify the command to re-enter.
The ctag has a maximum of 6 characters beginning with either a letter or a
numeral. It is assigned by the operator and must be included in a command.
This parameter is the current date in the 6-digit form yy-mm-dd (year, month,
day). For example, 95-12-08 is December 8, 1995. To enter the date in a command, do not use the hyphens. For example, 951208 is December 8, 1995.

4. COMMANDS
4.01The commands used with the 500 series sys-
tems are listed in this section. Each command starts
on a separate page with the command code, message
category, and type. The Þrst two paragraphs describe
what the command is and what it does. The command
paragraph shows the format and syntax of the command, shows an example of the command and what
the example accomplishes, and provides the values
for the parameters. The completed and error response
formats are shown, with examples and messages that
may be displayed for the parameters. Parameter deÞnitions are listed in Table A. For a list of the available
commands, refer to Table B. Operational considerations are listed in Table D.
The command types include:
4.02
•Security
•Card conÞguration and control
•Retrieve manual and/or automatic alarms
•Card information and date
4.03Security for the MIS -14 card is controlled by
two items: a password entered by command and a
switch setting on the card (section 4 of SW1; see
Figure 2). When assigning a password, the password
is assigned to a speciÞc port. Only one password per
port is allowed, and only one user per port is allowed
at any one time.
4.04From the factory, no password is entered and
the switch is set for no protection (section 4 is in the
ON position). When set for no protection, all commands can be accessed without logging onto the system.
4.05To activate protection, section 4 of SW1 must
be set to OFF and a password must be entered. A
password is entered by using the
mand. Once a valid password is entered, the protected commands (listed in Table B) can be accessed only
by logging onto the system using the
mand with the correct password. Those commands
which cannot be protected (listed in Table B) can always be accessed without logging on.
4.06
Protection can be removed by either setting sec-
tion 4 of SW1 to ON or removing the password. The

Table D. Operational Considerations
NUMBERCONSIDERATION
1All systems are shipped with the factory-set sid TELECOMSOLUTIONS. In multi-system installa-
tions, the SET-SID command sets a unique sid for each system before entering other commands.
2Upon initial installation of the MIS card, it is recommended to set the time and date using the
SET-DAT command to allow for proper event correlation.
3In a shelf, clock cards and clock input cards are labeled A and B. In the commands and
responses, these cards are designated 1 and 2. For example, input 4 of cloc k input card MRC A
is designated MRC-1-4 in the commands and responses.
4All clock input cards are designated MRC, whether the y are ECI cards , ACI cards, or MRC cards.
5If multiple autonomous alarms appear that include a major (MJ) alarm and a card failure (CARD
FAIL), ignore the MJ CARD FAIL message.

SET SOURCE IDENTIFIER
(SET-SID)
MESSAGE CATEGORY: ADMINISTRATION
TYPE: INPUT/RESPONSE
This command sets the system identification, or source identifier. The sid is included in every message
sent by the system. The target identifier (tid) in a command is the sid of the system where the command
is targeted. (The MIS card retains the sid for six to eight hours after the card is removed from the shelf.)
Note: The sids on the expansion shelves are automatically assigned. The expansion shelf sids are as
follows:
• <tid>E1 = Expansion shelf #1
• <tid>E2 = Expansion shelf #2
• <tid>E3 = Expansion shelf #3

RETRIEVE PERFORMANCE MONITORING T1
(RTRV-PM-T1)
MESSAGE CATEGORY: SURVEILLANCE
TYPE: INPUT/RESPONSE
This command retrieves and displays the current set of PM data for one or more equipment units or facilities. The PM data may be used to load or verify a database, to examine events that are not reported
by automatic messages, or to evaluate the system after maintenance operations. Parameters are provided to display past PM data if the MIS card is configured to store such data. PM data is retrieved from the
specified time period to the current time period.

RETRIEVE PERFORMANCE MONITORING T1 (Contd)
Note: Counts for each 15-minute time period from the specified period to the current are retrieved. If
the date is not specified, the time period is assumed to be in the last 24 hours. If the previous day
is specified, only starting times between midnight (00:00) and 24 hours ago are accepted. If the
current day is specified, only starting times between midnight (00:00) and the current time are
accepted. In all accepted cases, all data to the current time are retrieved.
Examples:
Note: For all the following examples, assume the current date and time are 06-23 and 19-37, or June
23 and 7:37 pm. The current time period is 19-30, the time period between 7:30 pm and 7:45 pm.
RTRV-PM-T1::MRC-1-4:141::OOF,,,,,,18-45;
The above example, tagged as command 141, retrieves and displays the out-of-frame performance
monitoring data for span 4 on MRC-A. Data is displayed for each 15-minute count since 6:45 pm
today.
RTRV-PM-T1::MRC-1-4:173::OOF,,,,,06-22,18-45;
The above example, tagged as command 173, is invalid. The time is more than 24 hours ago.
RTRV-PM-T1::MRC-1-4:174::OOF,,,,,,21-45;
The above example, tagged as command 174, retrieves and displays the out-of-frame performance
monitoring data for span 4 on MRC-A. Data is displayed for each 15-minute count since 9:45 pm
yesterday, which is the only 21-45 in the last 24-hour period. The result is the same if yesterdayÕs
date is specified.
RTRV-PM-T1::MRC-1-4:175::OOF,,,,,06-23,21-45;
The above example, tagged as command 175, is invalid. 9:45 pm today has not arrived yet.
RTRV-PM-T1::PSM-1-4:176::TOTALSLIP,,,,,1-DAY::;
The above example, tagged as command 176, retrieves and displays the total number of slips for
span 4 on PSM-A for the past 24-hour period.
This example, the response to command 141, shows that MRC A, span 4, had 1 out-of-frame (OOF)
errors in the 15-minute period ending at 6:45 pm, 3 OOFs in the period ending 7 pm, and 0 in the
current 15-minute time period. The current time period is not complete, and is labeled ÒpartialÓ.
The following response occurs if analog is the input:
