SYSTEM The size, type, and features of a MERLIN II system are CONFIGURATION determined using system planning forms. System Size A MERLIN II system can be as small as four outside lines and eight analog voice terminals, or as large as 56 outside lines and 72 stations. A MERLIN II system with as many as eight lines and 20 stations is considered a sma[...]

● In a pooled system, outside lines can be grouped into line pools (groups of interchangeable lines). To get an outside line in a pooled system, the user must dial an access number or use a dedicated pool button on the voice terminal. Access to outside line pools can also be had through Automatic Route Selection (ARS). ● In a behind-switch syst[...]

If you use a 008 module in this slot, you must provide for outside lines using another module. The 408 module has a port processor to handle real- time intensive tasks such as ATL line protocol and central office rotary outpulsing. The port processor receives instructions from the main processor over the I/O bus. The instructions are stored in the [...]

ANALOG TO DIGITAL SIGNAL PROCESSING Analog to Digital Signal Conversion processor. The port processor directs Touch-Tone circuitry to output tones. The tones are placed on the TDM bus by the DSE through buffer circuitry. After a tip condition occurs at the remote end, a conversation may occur. The MERLIN II system receives analog signals from the c[...]

Quantizing Commanding PCM uses PAM as its starting point but goes further. PCM digitizes the information and sends the 8-bit code via PAM. PCM digitizes the PAM information by comparing each PAM sample to a point on a chart. Each point has a distinct 8-digit binary code. Therefore, it is the binary code, not the amplitude pulse, that is transmitted[...]

Mu-Law 255 A-Law 100 DIGITAL SWITCHING Mu-Law 255 is a commanding scheme which uses a compression ratio that is compatible with modern channel bank equipment. The scale is divided into 16 intervals, with each interval having 16 levels. Therefore, it has 256 discrete values. Mu-Law 255 has a negative and positive zero; therefore, it really has 255 d[...]

Each module has a DSE to interface codecs or digital transceivers to the TDM bus. The actual digital switching occurs when the DSE is programmed by the system I/O bus to place (transmit) data or retrieve (receive) data on the TDM bus in specific time slots. This process also involves time slot interchanging so that an available slot in the TDM cycl[...]
