3.3. PRI Board
3.3.1. Board Description
The PRI board contains an one or two ISDN interfaces and PCM bus timing circuits. PRI 1
interface is designed as internal (on this port is activated LCR function), PRI 2 port is designed
as external (all calls from the port will be routed to PRI 1 port). The interface can work in the
MASTER or SLAVE mod (via BLUESTAR program you can set mode of PRI 1 port, PRI 2 port
has always opposite mode!). The output can be configured as TERMINAL or NETWORK by
jumpers (switching of wires – for software switch you have to use BLUESTAR program!). These
jumpers HAVE TO be set same as PRI configuration – two NT and TE modes will cause
malfunction of PRI board or backup connection* ! The board is designed on a 4-layer PCB of
the size of 160x100mm. A PRIMARY ISDN interface and 5 board status indicators are located
on the front panel.
* the PRI board contains four switches (can be deactivated by jumpers) which makes
hardware connection between PRI 1 and PRI 2 in case that BLUESTAR is switched off or has
some software problem.
