SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS FOR CANADA

Certain requirements exist for data communication products manufactured for use in Canada. Principle among these requirements is the application of the IC label as described below. However, certain data communication products do not require the IC label nor adherence to IC requirements. If this is the case the IC label will not be affixed to the units.

INDUSTRY CANADA (IC) REQUIREMENTS

IC labels are affixed to each unit sold in Canada. This label has the certification number for that particular unit. The numbers are different for each model.
The Industry Canada label identifies certified equipment. This certification means that the equipment meets certain telecommunications network protective, operational, and safety requirements. IC does not guarantee the equipment will operate to the user's satisfaction.
Before installing this equipment, users should ensure that it is permissible to be connected to the facilities of the local telecommunications company. The equipment must also be installed using an acceptable method of connection. In some cases, the company's inside wiring asso­ciated with a single line individual service may be extended by means of a certified connector assembly (telephone extension cord). The customer should be aware that compliance with the above conditions may not prevent degradation of service in some situations.
Repairs to certified equipment should be made by an authorized Canadian maintenance facility designated by the supplier. Any repairs or alterations made by the user to this equip­ment, or equipment malfunctions, may give the telecommunications company cause to request the user to disconnect the equipment. For their own protection users should ensure that the electrical ground connections of the power utility, telephone lines and internal metallic water pipe system, if present, are connected together. This precaution may be partic­ularly important in rural areas.

CAUTION

Users should not attempt to make installation connections themselves, but should contact the appropriate electric inspection authority or electrician.

CANADIAN EMISSION REQUIREMENTS

This Class A digital apparatus meets all requirements of the Canadian Interference-Causing Equipment Regulations.
Cet appareil numérique de la classe A respecte toutes les exigences du Règlement sur le matériel brouilleur du Canada.

Introduction

GENERAL

The Telenetics FT 100S Fractional T1 CSU/DSU combines a single channel, fractional T1 DSU with a T1 ESF CSU. The unit interfaces customer premise data and voice equipment to a T1 transmission facility. High speed workstations, local and wide area networks (WANs), Private Branch Exchanges (PBXs), facsimiles, and host computers are examples of customer equipment which may communi­cate over public or private T1 networks using the FT 100S.

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION

The FT 100S receives serial data from the customer Data Terminal Equipment (DTE) and multiplexes it onto a 1.544 Mbps DS-1 signal. The DS-1 signal interfaces to the T1 network via an integral ESF CSU. The DTE ports enable data rates from 56 kbps to 1.536 Mbps. The unit complies with DTE interface standards for V.35 and supports all Frac­tional T1 applications.
Network management and configuration for the FT 100S are provided by several methods. A Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) front panel accesses all configuration and diagnostic options. An RS-232 rear panel interface labeled CONTROL allows configuring and testing the unit via terminal, computer, or remotely via modem. When the RM16M model is installed in the LocalView Shelf, configuration and diagnostics are accessible via the LocalView terminal. Operating parameters are stored in nonvolatile memory.

The interface is compatible with EIA RS-232 serial data operation and has pin functions like a DCE interface.
This is the same type of connector with the same pin connections as found on IBM PC/AT personal computers and compatibles so that stan­dard cables can be used.
Pin connections for this interface are shown in Table 2-2.

Hardware Configuration

GENERAL

The FT 100S is factory configured to current industry standards. Because of the number of possible applications, the unit will require some option changes to fit a particular application.
This chapter describes the options that are configured with hardware on the printed circuit board (PCB). Hardware options are selected by two plug-on straps, a dip switch, and installing the interface adapter card. To access these options on the standalone unit, the cover must first be removed.

COVER REMOVAL

Warning
Do not remove the cover unless the power cord is unplugged.
1. Place the unit on its side on a flat surface.
2. Insert a medium size flat screwdriver blade in one of the bottom rear latch slots. Do not push the screwdriver but lightly pry the handle away from the unit as shown in Figure 3-1. This disengages the lock prong from the latch locks.
3. Assist removal by pushing the cover from the chassis with your fingers on the unit rear edges. Repeat this procedure with the remaining latch slots.
4. To replace the cover, align the latch locks, rear guide grooves, and front lock tabs.
5. Press the cover in place until the latch locks engage the lock prongs.

Strap Application

Grounding

Signal ground is normally separated from chassis ground. If necessary, signal ground can be connected to chassis ground by moving the strap to E1.

DTE INTERFACE OPTIONS

Several standard DTE interfaces are available.
Normally, the FT 100S is purchased with the required interface already installed. However, if application requirements change, the unit can be reconfigured.
The DTE interface type is selected by
installing the appropriate adapter card onto the main printed circuit board and
if required, installing an adapter for converting the DTE connector on the rear panel.

Installing an Interface Card

The interface adapter card is located on the main printed circuit card as shown in Figure 3-2.
To remove a card, remove the stand off screws and carefully lift both ends of the card vertically to unplug the card.

Hardware Configuration
Since the available interface adapter cards are used on various Tele­netics products, they may contain switches and straps that must be set according to the product on which they're to be used. For the FT 100S, the settings are described in the table below. Option cards that were installed at the factory should already be configured properly.
V.35 Card RS-530/449 Card
#4563699 or 4563956 #4563507 #4563137
Switches 3, 4, 6 ON 1, 2, 5, 7, 8, OFF
Strapped for CHNL
Strapped for TM
To install a card,
1. Ensure the card is configured correctly
2. Align the connectors
3. Firmly press the adapter card down at both ends until the card fully seats, and
4. Re-install stand off screws.

Using a Conversion Adapter

A V.35 or RS-449 connector conversion adapter can be attached to the rear panel DTE connector. These adapters convert the existing 25-pin D­type DTE connector to a 34-pin V.35 connector or 37-pin RS-449 connector.

Front Panel Option Selection

GENERAL

FT 100S configuration options, operating status, and diagnostics can be observed or changed using the front panel pushbuttons with the LCD. The unit can also be controlled by the control port described in Chapter 6, or by the LocalView terminal when installed in the Local­View shelf.

LCD MENUS

Three main menus provide
Port status displays
Diagnostic options
Configuration options
Each main menu is supported by submenus, items, and options.
While most menu items allow selecting different options, some only display the current status of a signal or function. These provide status monitoring for such features as receive signal frame synchronization and alarm reporting.
Table 4-1 lists all menus.

Using the Pushbuttons to Select Options

Generally, pressing NO scrolls vertically down the columns in Table 4-1 and pressing YES advances horizontally across the columns. Pressing HOME returns to the submenu or main menu header. If the pushbuttons are pressed and held, the FT 100S automatically scrolls through the menu at a rate of about 4 display advances per second. Options are selected by pressing the YES/NO pushbuttons in answer to prompts or questions. In some cases, option fields on the LCD blink. If this occurs and the displayed selection for the option should be changed, press NO to display another selection. If the displayed selection is the setting required, press YES to select it and advance to the next option field or submenu.
