Configuring Tie-Lines
• The
System Tie Line
setting is usually used for tie-lines connecting dif-
ferent matrices.
Tie Line Source Monitor
type is also available that permits
the viewing of the immediate Source routed to a Tie Line.
After
Commit Changes
are performed on all the Router Controllers, the Tie-
Line Manager receives the network broadcast information and automati-
cally adds the tie-line to its database in memory.
Configuring a New Tie-Line With Tie-Line Manager
New tie-lines received over the network are initially flagged as Offline.
They need to be put on-line before they can be used. Also they must be
saved in the Tie-Line Manager's database so that they are read at the next
SCB start up.
1. Launch Tie-Line Manager and go to the Tie Config screen.
2.
Select the new tie-line by it name with the button or arrows at the top
of the screen.
3. Click the Offline button to put the tie-line on-line. The button’s green
indicator should be off.
4.
The default tie-line setting is
Floating
. If you want a different setting,
choose it in the Type Config area, entering Type Parameters if needed.
