ESU LT - E1 CSU/DSUs with a single Nx56K/64K serial port. • ESU 120e - Same as the ESU LT with the added feature of a G.703 drop port and a slot in the rear panel to house an option module.
Remote management via 8K inband channel or 64K dedicated TS0 (using T-Watch as the network manager). ESU LT CONFIGURATION APPLICATION The following example illustrates a possible ESU LT application. Bridge/Router Application A bridge or router can be interfaced to the network by using the DTE interface.
ADTRAN Customer Service. If possible, keep the original shipping container for use in shipping the ESU LT back for repair or for verification of damage during shipment. ADTRAN Shipments Include The following items are included in the ADTRAN shipment: •...
POWER CONNECTION Power is supplied to the ESU LT through an IEC-type power connector on the rear of the unit. Power to the ESU LT must be from a grounded 90-240 VAC, 50/60 Hz power source. Grounding Instructions Grounding instruction information from the Underwriters' Laboratory UL 1950 3rd Edition is provided in this section.

Chapter 2. Installation ESU LT Interfaces The ESU LT is equipped with four interfaces: • E1 Network interface per ITU G.703 • Nx56/64 high-speed, multi-protocol serial interface • Control input (EIA-232)/Chain port input • Chain port output See Figure 2-2 and the following descriptions in this section.
Control Port Input The control port input provides an EIA-232 input from a PC or a modem for control of the ESU LT. You can also use it as a chain input from another ESU LT or ESU 120e. For more information, see Appendix B, Pinouts on page 69.

FRONT PANEL OVERVIEW The ESU LT front panel monitors operation and controls the configuration of the unit. Figure 3-1 shows the ESU LT front panel. Table 3-1 describes each part of the front panel. Front panel operation is more fully described in subsequent pages.

Description LED ON when request to send (RTS) is active from DTE. LED ON when ESU LT has clear to send (CTS) active toward DTE. A 2X16 LCD window that displays menu items used in configuration and displays information useful in moni- toring the unit.
FRONT PANEL MENU STRUCTURE AND OPERATION Menu Structure The ESU LT uses a multilevel menu structure containing both menu items and data fields. All menu operations and data are displayed in the LCD window. The opening menu is the access point to all other operations. Each Main menu item has several functions and submenus to identify and access specific parameters.
The cursor is on the first field. If there are more than two menu fields, a down arrow is visible on the lower right corner. See Figure 3- 3 on page 32. Figure 3-2. Cursor on Menu Item Figure 3-3. Submenu Fields ESU LT User Manual 61200410L2-1A...
The original data value is restored and the cursor returns to the submenu field. Exiting Menu Field Operation Or Display Press C as many times as required to return to the ANCEL appropriate menu level. 61200410L2-1A ESU LT User Manual...
T-Watch PRO Management Software Program T-Watch PRO is the ADTRAN management software program that allows the user to control the ESU LT from a PC. It provides complete control over the configuration of the ESU LT using a graphic interface. The T-Watch PRO program displays the same status and performance data as the front panel LCD.
NI PERF RPTS The Network Interface Performance Reports display the user’s copy of the performance data. The ESU LT maintains this performance data on the network based on G.821. The data displayed is data accumulated over the last 15 minutes and over the last 24 hours.
Number of unavailable seconds (10 or more consecutive seconds). Since only the user’s copy of performance data is cleared by the ESU LT, the data displayed here might be different from the data being sent to the network as performance report message (PRM) data.

This option is also referred to as looped timed as the transmission clock is derived from the received clock. See Figure 5-2. Figure 5-2. Network Timed Clock Source ESU LT User Manual 61200410L2-1A...
Chapter 5. Configuration Menu Internal Timing The ESU LT is the source of timing. The ESU LT is configured to use its own internal oscillator as the source of timing. Applications include private line driver circuits, where one end is set to network and the other to internal.
It also sets baud rate for communications with a PC or modem. Position Determines whether this ESU LT is at the head of a chain of units (directly connected to the modem or PC). The head of the chain is referred to as the master unit.
Chapter 5. Configuration Menu Modem Init The ESU LT can initialize a modem. This menu selection is used to perform this initialization and should be selected only when the ESU LT is serving as the M unit. Prior to modem...
The 8 kbps channel is only taken out of the first time slot. If two 64K TS0s are mapped, the DTE rate would be 120 kbps instead of 128 kbps. The inband channel is not available in unframed mode. ESU LT User Manual 61200410L2-1A...
If more than 15 channels are used in CAS mode, contiguous must be used. If other than a private network is used, the carrier must be notified of this choice. Choices: ALT (alternate); CONT (contiguous) 61200410L2-1A ESU LT User Manual...

Payload Loopback Similar to line loopback, except that the framing is extracted from the received data and then regenerated for the transmitted data. ESU LT User Manual 61200410L2-1A...
Loops all data from the DTE back towards the DTE. This loopback may be initiated by using the front panel or T-Watch PRO commands. The DTE (or the external test equipment) must provide a test pattern to check the DTE interface. Figure 7-4. DTE Interface Loopback 61200410L2-1A ESU LT User Manual...
Each channel of the E1 has only one bit set. QRSS ACT TS0s The ESU LT has an internal QRSS pattern generator and detector. The pattern only appears in the TS0s assigned to the Nx56K/64K port. The QRSS test pattern can be used in conjunction with network loopbacks to perform end-to-end tests.
Figure 7-5. Clear Errors Screen This menu function is very useful for testing end-to-end integrity of the network. First loop up the far end ESU LT. Then send a 511 pattern from the local ESU LT. The screen can then...
If a failure is detected, note the failure number and contact ADTRAN Technical Support. Executing self-test disrupts normal data flow and prevents remote communication until the self-test is completed (approximately 15 seconds). Figure 7-6.
