Quad/x16/Octal—T1/E1/J1 Framers
TFRAME[3:0]
Frame formatter generates Ft, Fs, FPS, FAS, MFAS, and CRC bits. Alarm formatter generates
YB2, YJ, Y0, and Y16 bits. Frame and alarm overhead formats are selected by TFRAME[3:0]
and T1/E1N settings as given in Tables 3-15 through 3-18. Each yellow alarm is capable of
being generated manually, automatically [TALM; addr 075], or bypassed [INS_MYEL; addr
072].
Frame formatter does not generate CAS or Sa-bit overhead. These bits are either supplied
by TPCMI in bypass mode [TFRM; addr 072] or by programming TSIGn [addr 120–13F] or
TSA4–TSA8 [addr 07B–07F] buffer contents. To insert CAS, the processor selects TLOCAL
output signaling for time slot 0 and time slot 16 by programming transmit per-channel control
registers TPC0 [addr 100] and TPC16 [addr 110]. The processor then fills ABCD local
signaling value for TPC0 with MAS pattern (ABCD = 0000) and TPC16 with XYXX pattern
(ABCD = 1011).
Frame formatter does not generate SLC, T1DM, or FDL overhead. These bits are either
supplied by TPCMI in bypass mode [TFRM; addr 072] or by programming TSLIP
[addr 140–17F], TDL1 [addr 0AD], or TDL2 [addr 0B8] buffer contents.
To insert SLC concentrator, maintenance, alarm, and switch field values, the processor
selects any SLC framer format and programs either TDL1 or TDL2. This is done in order to
operate in unformatted Pack6 mode over the F-bit channel during even frames, thus
overwriting all Fs bits inserted by frame formatter. The data pattern to be sent in 36 Fs bit
multiframe is then written as six 6-bit words to TDL1 or TDL2 circular buffer. For real-time
overhead manipulation, the processor can rewrite the circular buffer with a new 36-bit pattern
as desired.
To insert T1DM, the processor enables TIDLE insertion on time slot 24 by programming
the system bus per-channel control [SBC24; addr 0F8], then filling TSLIP buffer locations for
TS24 [addr 138, 158] with the T1DM framing pattern (TS24 = 10111YR0). If specific T1DM
elements need to be inserted and others bypassed, the processor configures TDL1 or TDL2 to
selectively insert only the desired bits. T1DM sync pattern, R-bits, and/or Y-bits. The
processor accomplishes this by programming data link bit enables [DL1_BIT; addr 0A5 or
DL2_BIT; addr 0B0].
To insert FDL, the processor configures TDL1 to operate over the F-bit channel during odd
frames [DL1_TS; addr 0A4] and Automatic Performance Report Messages [AUTO_PRM;
addr 0AA] or manually programs TDL1 to send each message.
