3600 Series Data Service Units ARDIS Abstract

Document Number 3600-A2-GZ60-00

May 1995

Purpose

This special firmware release adds the ability of ARDIS cell sites to backup at 28.8 kbps using external AT&T

Paradyne 3800Plus and 3900 Series (V.34bis) modems until the 3600 Series 28.8 kbps dial backup module

(DBM) is available.

Full backup capability is provided. Backup can be initiated automatically from the diagnostic control panel

(DCP), or manually initiated from the DCP or a 6800 Series network management system (NMS).

Restrictions

•Internal dial backup modules (DBMs) are not supported; the DSU ignores an installed DBM.

•External modems receive clocking from the DSU when in Backup mode. The TxClkSource shown in

Table 1 should always be set to DCE. Other selections are not supported.

•Fallback is not supported.

•Only single-port DSU and point-to-point TDM applications are supported (see Customer Applications).

•Since port speeds cannot be lowered for backup, some TDM ports may have to be disabled due to

bandwidth limitations.

•The following diagnostic tests are not supported in external backup: Digital Test (DT), Remote Digital

Loopback (RL), and Bit Error Rate Test (BERT).

•Both the control and tributary DSUs must be equipped with this special ARDIS firmware, which supports

external backup.

Customer Applications

Figure 1 shows the configurations supported by this release; no other configurations are supported.

The basic ARDIS configuration is a point-to-point DSU-TDM operating at 56 kbps over the DDS line, with

Ports 2 and 3 configured for 14.4 kbps and Ports 4 through 6 configured for 2.4 kbps. The first application is

connected to Port 2 and four additional ports are available for application use. An EIA-232 crossover cable

(feature number 4951-035F) is needed to connect the DSU to the modem.

NOTE

If all six ports are needed, enabling Port 1 requires a

V.35-to-EIA-232 converter. Configure Port 1 to operate using the

V.35 interface (for Flex/MUX, set the DTE Port option to V.35 in

TDM Port Configuration Options; when not Flex/MUX, set the DTE

Port option to V.35 in General Configuration Options).

Figure 1. Point-to-Point Configurations with External V.34 Backup

Configuring the DSU for External Backup

This firmware release supports two modes of external backup so that the modem can:

•Originate a call.

•Answer a call.

To support external backup, changes have been made to the configuration options in the Options (Opts) branch.

To use the external backup feature, use the DSU Configuration option sets: DBM, Diagnostic (Diag) DBM, and

Backup (Bkup).

When using external backup in TDM mode, use MUX Setup for TDM. For the DSU, use the Port Speed (PrtSp)

for DBM to set port speeds.

Table 1 lists the changes to the option sets that have been made to provide external backup capability.

External Backup

The DSU uses the DBM option set to configure the DSU for external backup. Once configured for external

backup (ExtBU: Enab) to permit data to be transferred from the DTE to the external modem, the Bckup branch

displays different selections based upon the state of external backup.

When AnswExtBU (Answer External Backup) is disabled, or when both ExtBU and AnswExtBU are enabled, the

Bckup (Backup) branch does not appear on the top-level menu.

•If backup is active – DrBU is the selection.

•If backup is inactive – ExtBU is the selection.

Originating a Call

When configured to originate a call, AnswExtBU (in the DBM option set) is disabled.

To establish a call connection, the DSU raises DSR, which is received by the external modem as a DTR signal via

the crossover cable, signaling the modem to place a call. When the connection is made, the DSU switches data to

the backup line – the alternate port. The DSU then monitors its RTS lead. RTS going high indicates that the call is

completed and the Tries Timeout Timer, set via the TriesTimeOut configuration option, is stopped.

To disconnect a call, the DSU lowers DSR, causing the external modem to disconnect the call. Data is switched

back to the DDS line.

Answering a Call

When configured to answer a call, AnswExtBU (in the DBM option set) is enabled. The DSU raises DSR and

monitors its DTR lead. When the modem raises DSR, raising DTR and indicating that a call is being established,

the DSU switches data to the backup line – the alternate port. When the external modem’s DSR signal goes low,

indicating that a call is not established, the DSU lowers DSR to disconnect the call and switches the data back to

the DDS line.

NMS Support Considerations

This firmware release is supported by the 6800 Series NMS, but slight variations in configuring the DSU are

required. NMS configuration options are mapped to the following DSU (with external backup capability)

configuration options:

DSU option set:

AggrSwitch – mapped to ExtBU configuration option

DBM option set:

Rate(Kbps) – mapped to different Rate(Kbps) configuration option

AutoAnswer – mapped to AnswExtBU configuration option

DCE Clock Source – mapped to DDS on the NMS

To the NMS, when the DSU is configured for external backup, it appears that a V.32 DBM is installed. The

“V.32 DBM” rate from the NMS will be doubled automatically by a DSU that has this firmware release. The only

valid NMS-entered rates are:

9.6 kbps – converted to 19.2 kbps by the DSU

12.0 kbps – converted to 24.0 kbps by the DSU

14.4 kbps – converted to 28.8 kbps by the DSU

For example, for the DSU to operate at 19.2 kbps for external backup, the NMS operator configures the

“V.32 DBM” to operate at 9.6 kbps. At the DSU, the unit is configured for 19.2 kbps backup.

Configuring the Unit

To configure the DSU from the DCP so that the external modem can originate or answer a backup call:

Procedure

1. Load the factory-set configuration for either a control (FacC) or tributary (FacT).

2. Go to the DBM option set and verify that ExtBU (External Backup) is enabled, then select Next (F1).

ExtBU determines whether an external modem is being used.

The AnswExtBU (Answer External Backup) configuration option appears.

3. Change the AnswExtBU configuration option setting, if needed, and then select Next (F1). AnswExtBU

determines whether the DSU originates or answers backup.

•To originate a call, set to Disab.

•To answer a call, set to Enab.

The factory setting is Disab for a control DSU and Enab for a tributary. If you change the setting for the

control, you must also change the setting for the tributary; if one originates the call, the other must answer

the call. (Note: If changing the originate-answer configuration, always change external modem

configurations before changing the DSU configurations to prevent the modem from initiating dial backup

prematurely.)

4. Select the DBM Configuration option rate, Rate(Kbps), and then select Next (F1).

5. Press the key until you return to the Edit/Save screen, and Save to Activ.
