Description
Tandem Connection-Incoming Error Count. Indicates a B3
error count is being received from downstream TCM
equipment. Bits 1-4 of the Z5 byte are used for this indicator.
This is an error LED.
Tandem Connection-Remote Error Indication. Indicates that
an error has occurred at the downstream TCM equipment.
The unit is receiving an error. Bit 5 of the Z5 byte is used for
this indicator. This is an error LED.
Tandem Connection-Outgoing Error Indication. Indicates that
the unit is sending an OEI error to upstream TCM equipment.
Bit 6 of the Z5 byte is used for this indicator. This is an error
LED.
Tandem Connection-Remote Defect Indication. Indicates that
a defect has occurred at the downstream TCM equipment.
The unit is receiving an alarm. Bit 8 in multiframe 73 of the Z5
byte is used for this indicator. This is an alarm LED.
Tandem Connection-Outgoing Defect Indicator. Indicates that
the unit is sending an ODI alarm to upstream TCM
equipment. Bit 7 in multiframe 74 of the Z5 byte is used for
this indicator. This is an alarm LED.
Tandem Connection-Alarm Indication Signal. Indicates if IEC
bits 1110 are being received from upstream TCM equipment.
(Bits 1-4 of the Z5 byte are the IEC bits.) This is an alarm
LED.
Tandem Connection-Unequipped. Indicates that a 00h
pattern has been detected in the Z5 byte of a Tandem
Connection. This is an alarm LED.
Tandem Connection-Loss of Frame. Indicates the loss of a
valid multiframe frame alignment signal (FAS) pattern from
upstream TCM equipment. This is an alarm LED.
