CVSD
CVSD is selected when the Voice II/CVSD Channel module is used for any voice channel; the
Voice II/CVSD Channel module must be in the slot associated with the selected channel number.
A data rate may be selected for a CVSD voice channel. The output level of a voice channel also
may be set as a channel parameter.
PCM (Pulse-Coded Modulation)
PCM is selected when the PCM or UVC/PCM Voice Channel module is used; the PCM Voice
Channel module must be in the slot associated with the channel number. A PCM voice channel op-
erates at a fixed data rate of 64 kHz (66 kHz of aggregate bandwidth are consumed by a PCM voice
channel. The extra 2 kHz of bandwidth are used for overhead and synchronization bits; when a
PCM channel is configured, the REMAINING BANDWIDTH figure is reduced by 66 kHz). The
output level of a PCM channel may be set as a channel parameter.
ADPCM (Adaptive Differential Pulse-Coded Modulation)
ADPCM is selected when the ADPCM Voice Channel module is used; the ADPCM Voice Channel
module must be in the slot associated with the channel number. The ADPCM voice channel oper-
ates at a fixed data rate of 32 kHz (34 kHz of aggregate bandwidth are consumed by an ADPCM
voice channel. The extra 2 kHz of bandwidth are used for overhead and synchronization bits; when
an ADPCM channel is configured, the R E MA I N I N G BANDWIDTH figure is reduced by 34
kHz). The output level of an ADPCM channel may be set as a channel parameter.

In software version X.10, an error is displayed when an attempt is made to configure an ASP chan-
nel card for a data rate it does not support. The current card supports four ASP data rates. Earlier
versions of the ASP channel card supported only one rate, 16K.
ASP Channel Card, GDC P/N 036M259-001 comprises ASP Base Card (036P255-002) with ASP
Piggyback Card (036P259-001) installed.
ASP Channel Card, GDC P/N 036M259-002 comprises ASP Base Card {036P255-002) with ASP
Piggyback Card (036P259-002) installed.
036R660-000, Issue 10
With the Voice II/ASP channel card installed (GDC P/N 036M259-001) in conjunction
with AUTO FRAME Plus module (GDC P/N 036P248-022/-023), only fixed rate ASP
at 16 kbps may be selected.
With the Voice II/ASP variable rate channel card installed (GDC P/N 036M259-002)
in conjunction with Universal AUTO FRAME module (GDC P/N 036P248-026),
variable ASP rates of 10 kbps, 11 kbps, 12 kbps and 16 kbps may be selected.
