MODE
The Mode parameter appears only for the HSU-T V11 and HSU-T 35 Cards. It allows you to
identify how the HSU port appears to the device on the other end of the interface cable. The
dce option causes the port to be recognized as a DCE (data circuit-terminating equipment)
device. The dte option causes the port to be recognized as a DTE (data terminal equipment)
device.
Note that the choices appearing for some of the parameters that follow will depend on whether
you choose dce or dte as the Mode. Those parameters and their available settings are
described below.
TS
The TS (time slot) setting identifies the time slots on the WAN link when wan is the
WAN/SRV setting. Unlike other user cards, the HSU Card can use many time slots on a single
WAN port to create a super-rate circuit for an individual HSU port. One or all DS0 time slots
on a single T1 or E1 link can be assembled for use by an HSU port in order to satisfy the speed
requirements of the DTE.
The time slot numbers range from 1 to 24 for T1 links and 1 to 31 for E1 links. However, time
slot 16 is not available on E1 links programmed for CAS or CCS signaling. Figure 14-6
shows the display when table is selected. Using the space bar to select and deselect the time
6
slot, this example shows time slots 11 to 16 on WAN 1-1 assigned to this port. The time slot
assignments do not have to be contiguous on any card port.
