Transaction Language 1 (Tl1) Interface Description - ADC Soneplex Broadband System Operation And Maintenance Manual

TRANSACTION LANGUAGE 1 (TL1) INTERFACE DESCRIPTION

Summary: This TAD describes the commands used to operate the Soneplex Loop Extender
through a terminal using Transaction Language 1 (TL1). All operations are performed at a local
and/or remote terminal using an EIA-232 interface. For additional information on TL1 commands,
refer to the Soneplex TL1 Interface Specification Manual, listed under Related Publications at the
beginning of this manual, for more information.
Note: The TL1 interface is case-insensitive. All input commands are mapped to
uppercase except for TID and CTAG. Size of input commands is limited to 512 bytes.
The following notational conventions are used throughout this TAD:
• cr — Carriage return
• lf
— Line feed
• ^
— Blank space
• YY-MM-DD —
• HH:MM:SS —
• ... — Indicates zero or more repetitions of expression contained in brackets
• [ ] — One or more parameters contained in brackets are optional
• { x }— Selection of one and only one of the listed parameters is allowed
• < > — Indicate names of parameters that will be replaced by parameter
TL1 Command Syntax
Any user request is considered a command. Commands generally consist of five blocks:
<command block>:<routing block>:<access block>:<correlation block>:<data block(s)>;
The command block consists of commands, verbs, and modifiers separated by hyphens.
<command verb> - <modifier>[-<modifier>]
For example: The command block OPR-LPBK contains the command verb OPR (OPeRate) and
the modifier LPBK (LooPBacK) to provide for the loopback function. The command block SET-
ATTR-T1 contains the command verb SET, the modifier ATTR (ATTRibute), and the modifier
T1 to provide the mechanism for setting attributes of a T1 circuit.
