5 6 3.0 CONFIGURA TION The 2701RC features configuration capability via hardware DIP switches, a software control port, or SNMP through the 1001MC. This section describes all possible hardware and software switch configura- tions of the network connection. 3.1 DIP SWITCH CONFIGURA TION The Model 2701RC has two eight bit DIP switches and two rotary [...]

7 S1-2 and S1-3 CLOCK MODES Set switch S1-2 and S1-3 to determine the 2701RC’s transmitter timing. Network Clock T ransmitter timing is derived using the received line signal (received recovered) from the network. Internal Clock T ransmitter timing is derived from an internal clock source. External Clock T ransmitter timing is derived from DTE te[...]

9 10 SWITCH S2-2: CRC-4 MUL TIFRAME In framed mode, S2-2 is used for CRC-4 MF . When CRC-4 is enabled, the unit monitors the incoming data stream for CRC-4 errors. It trans- mits 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 CRC-4 MF is used, both units mus[...]

11 12 3.2 CONFIGURING THE REAR INTERF ACE CARD The Model 2701RC Series has five interface card options: the Model 1001RCM12548C (DB-25/RJ-48C), the Model 1001RCM13448C (M/34/RJ-48C), the Model 1001RCM1 1548C (DB- 15/RJ-48C), the Model 1001RCM1 1575 (DB-15/Dual BNC).

21 22 The Main Menu options are briefly described below . System Configuration options allow you to change various aspects 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. [...]

23 24 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 requirements. Unle[...]

25 26 CAS MF Setting : Disabled (default) Options: Enabled, Disabled CAS MF: CAS multiframe uses T imeslot 16 (TS16) to send multi- frame (MF) alignment data. In CAS MF , a MF is defined as 16 frames, where a frame consists of 32 64kb/s timeslots, num- bered 0 to 31. TS16 of the first frame in the MF contains the CAS MF alignment word in the upper [...]

27 28 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 whether the front-panel toggle switches are enabled or disabled. S2-6 [...]

38 37 4.5 CONNECTING TO A DCE DEVICE The rear interface cards on most interface modules are hard wired as DC E . Therefore, you must use a null modem cable when con- necting to a modem, multiplexer or other DCE device. This cable should be of the shortest possible length--we recommend 6 feet or less. When purchasing or constructing a null modem int[...]
