SW5 (5) - SW8 (8): T1/E1 Line Configuration Settings
These DIP-switches configure the 4xT1/E1 MUX modules for T1/E1 operation and the copper line build-
out. This is a global configuration for all ports on the module.

SW1 (9) - SW4 (12): Port Alarm Relay/LED "Act / Off"
These DIP-switches enable/disable the port alarm relay and LED functions for the corresponding port
on the 4xT1/E1 MUX module. When these DIP-switches are in the "Act" position (default), the alarm
relay and Link "Lnk" and Remote "Rmt" LEDs are enabled. When these DIP-switches are in the "Off"
position, the alarm relay, "Lnk" and "Rmt" LEDs are disabled.
Port Alarm Relay
The port alarm relay will close when any of the following port alarm conditions are detected (i.e. alarm
relay port 1 will activate when an alarm condition is detected on port 1).
Power loss
The detection of AIS or Loss of Signal (LoS) on any of the four local T1/E1 copper ports
The detection of AIS or LoS on any of the four remote T1/E1 copper ports
When the T1/E1 MUX is not peered with its remote partner

NOTE: The alarm relay uses pins 7 & 8 of port 1 on each 4xT1/E1 MUX module. If more than one
4xT1/E1 MUX module is installed, each alarm relay operates independently from the other modules.
The optional breakout cable provides access to the T1/E1 and alarm relay pins: part number 9142-1.
SW5 (13): Circuit Test (C/T) Mode "Off / On"
When this DIP-switch is in the "Off" position (default), the Circuit Test Mode is disabled. When this
DIP-switch is in the "On" position, the Circuit Test Mode is enabled. Circuit Test Mode only needs to be
enabled on one end for the test to initiate.
When Circuit Test mode is enabled, both 4xT1/E1 MUX modules will transmit a known test pattern. The
test pattern is received by the far end unit and checked for errors. AIS is transmitted out all T1/E1 ports
and incoming T1/E1 traffic is discarded. A slow green/yellow alternating "Sys" LED on the initiating end
and a fast green/yellow alternating "Sys" LED on the far end indicates a successful test.
Figure 11: Circuit Test Mode
SW6 (14): Local Fiber Loopback "Off / Loc"
When this DIP-switch is in the "Off" position (default), local fiber loopback is disabled. When this DIP-
switch is in the "Loc" position, local fiber loopback is enabled on the MUX module. AIS is transmitted
across the fiber and out all remote T1/E1 ports. Incoming T1/E1 traffic at the remote unit is discarded.
Figure 12: Local Fiber Loopback
NOTE: Only one loopback activation (Local Fiber Loopback or Remote Fiber Loopback) can be
configured at the same time.
SW7 (15): Remote Fiber Loopback "Off / Rmt"
When this DIP-switch is in the "Off" position (default), remote fiber loopback is disabled. When this
DIP-switch is in the "Rmt" position, remote fiber loopback is enabled on the 4xT1/E1 MUX module. In
this mode, the local unit forces the remote 4xT1/E1 MUX module into loopback. AIS is transmitted out
all remote T1/E1 ports. Incoming T1/E1 traffic at the remote unit is discarded.
