The CBUQBR provides up to 8 x 64kbit/s ‘B’ channels, each channel can be switched to any time-slot on any of the four 2.048 Mbit/s backplane buses. The CBUQBR will provide on demand individual 64 kbit/s channels for use by other application cards in the shelf. The other application cards are completely responsible for the provision of telephone numbers, CLIDs, dial commands, timers, and call retry attempts.

1.4.2 Product Variant - S2 Poles 5-8 Different operational modes or product “variants” can be selected via the 8 way DIL switch on the pcb, allowing several different countries and variants to use the same software. DIL switch S1 poles 5, 6, 7 and 8 define the variant in binary notation. Pole 5 = L.S.B., pole 8 = M.S.B., (L.S.B.=Least Significant Bit, M.S.B.=Most Significant Bit).

Green ALERT 1.6 Management and Control The CBUQBR operates in conjunction with a CBUGSM for configuration purposes so there is no directly connected command port. Under normal conditions the majority of commands are initiated by other application cards so only a limited set of commands are available directly to the user.
2.1 Introduction Each Basic Rate Interface on the CBUQBR operates as a TE. This provides 64kbit/s ‘B’ channels for the consumption of other user cards in the Shelf System. The CBUQBR operates as the sole provider of ‘B’- channels within the Shelf.
2.4 Real Time Clock A Real time clock function is provided by the operating system on the CBUQBR. This software based real time clock facility calculates only hours minutes and seconds. maintained by CBUGSM automatically for all cards in the shelf.

3.2 Configuration Owing to the nature of the CBUQBR having 4 network ports, setting up requires care and understanding to ensure that all the ports are configured correctly. Malfunction can easily be caused through a faulty configuration.
The following is a tried and proven method of configuring the CBUQBR, in the following order:- 1. Plug in the BRI lines into the CBUQBR, making a note of all the line numbers versus CBUQBR ports. 2. Go to the Line configuration menu and enter each line number against the Primary and Secondary entries, for all ports connected to lines.

6. Set any other parameters as required, e.g. ALERTs menu. 7. Your CBUQBR should now be set up correctly. It may be helpful to test that the lines are operational on each port. This can be done by using an analogue telephone dialling one number on each port and checking that the L1 and L2 (ISDN Layer 1 and 2) LEDs alight for each port on the front panel.

MSN or sub-address. In the case of absence of a sub-address or MSN from an incoming call, the CBUQBR will attempt to match the ‘B’ channel to the record number. You are advised however to ensure that both the network and your CBUQBR are configured correctly for either sub-address or MSN.
