CLI Commands for Optional T1/E1 CSU Parameters

Additional T1/E1 CSU parameters are available in the event it is necessary to fine-tune the T1/E1 interface to meet your application requirements.

CLI> set csu t1 or set csu e1

These parameters, along with their factory default settings, are shown below:

T1

E1

Parameter

Description

X

 

B7Zero Suppression

This parameter applies to T1 only. It sets Bit 7 zero suppression to enable-b7zs or disable-b7zs. If set to enable, Bit 7 is forced to 1 if 8 consecutive zeros occur.

Default = disable-b7zs.

X

 

B8Zero Suppression

This parameter applies to T1 only. It sets Bit 8 zero suppression to enable-b8zs or disable-b8zs.

Default = enable-b8zs.

X

X

clockSource

This sets the T1/E1 CSU line clocking source to internal or external.

Default = external.

 

X

crc 4

This parameter applies to E1 only. It sets crc4, error checking, to enable or disable.

Default = disable.

X

X

ds0BasicRate

This sets the T1 CSU line speed to a multiple of either 64K or 56K bits per second. (Note: For E1, this parameter should be set to 64K.)

Default = 64K.

X

X

ds0Connection

This command is described in detail in Configurator Procedure for Configuring a T1 CSU or E1 CSU Interface.

X

 

frameFormat

This parameter applies to T1 only. It sets the T1 CSU frame format to d4FramingMode or esfFramingMode.

Default = esfFramingMode.

 

X

hdb3

This parameter applies to E1 only. If set to enable, it limits the maximum number of consecutive zeros in an HDB3-coded signal to three. Any four consecutive zeros are replaced with a pattern that includes a bipolar event (a pulse of the same polarity as the previous pulse without being part of the zero substitution code).

Default = disable.

X

 

lineBuildOut

This selects the T1 CSU line buildout. Choices are as follows:

 

0-133-feet              | 133-266-feet
266-399-feet          | 399-533-feet
533-655-feet          | -7.5db
-15db                     | -22.5db

T1 default = -7.5 db.

For E1csu, the line buildout is determined by the hardware. For example, if it is a 75 ohm (Coaxial cable connector) E1 csu, the line buildout will be 75-loss-1-1.36-step. This value is automatically set.

 

For a 120 ohm (RJ45 connector) E1 csu, the line buildout is 120-loss-1-1.36-step. This value is automatically set.

X

 

payLoadLoopback

This enables or disables the T1 CSU payload loopback testing.

Default = disable.

X

X

remoteLoopback

This enables or disables the T1/E1 CSU remote loopback testing.

Default = disable.

X

X

TrapStatus

This enables or disables the generation of T1/E1 CSU events and alarms traps messages.

Default = enable.

X

X

TxIdleCode

This selects the T1/E1 CSU Idle Code. Valid values are integers between 0 and 255. The default settings differ between T1 and E1.

T1 default = 127 (hex 0x7F).

E1 default = 85 (hex 0x55).
