Another Reporting Format, known as
SESCOA Fast,
is similar to the
4x2
(with parity),
in that it transmits the same number of digits at the same (40
pps) rate, but allocates the data differently:
• a three-digit
Account Number
(base 15)
• a three-digit
Alarm Code
(base 15)
• a one-digit parity character
Because each format uses the same number of characters, the CP-220A
cannot distinguish between messages received in these formats and uses
PARAMETER 59
to differentiate between them. Note that this selection can
be made on a slot-by-slot basis, as described below.
NOTE 1: PARAMETER 59 will work for REC-11 Line Cards using Version
2.6 or later.
NOTE 2: A
ppendix B
contains additional information on all Reporting
Formats.
Programming Procedures:
After entering
PARAMETER 59,
[SLOT 1 4x2 AT 40PPS] will be displayed
.
The number [1] after [SLOT] will be flashing.
If it is necessary to change between these formats as currently specified for
Slot 1, take the following steps:
1. Depress
the key once. The [4x2 AT 40PPS] will begin to flash.
2. Press
the
NEXT
key or the
MANUAL/PREVIOUS
key to display
[SESCOA FAST], which is the alternate selection. Make the desired
choice for
Slot 1.
3. Press
the key so that the [1] after [SLOT] flashes again.
4. To choose between the
4x2 at 40pps
and the
SESCOA Fast
formats for
another slot, press the number key of the slot desired (e.g.,
2
). The
chosen
Slot Number
and its currently assigned
PARAMETER 59
format
selection will be displayed.
5. Repeat the above steps for each
Slot Number
whose format capability
must be changed, in the manner described.
Default:
When it receives a 7-character, 40-pulses-per-second message, each slot will
initially assume its contents will be in the
4x2 (with parity)
format.
Advancing to Next Parameter:
After programming
PARAMETER 59,
press the
N
key to advance to
PARAMETER 60
– the next parameter in
Category A.
The CP-220A displays
the parameter just programmed ([PARAMETER NUMBER 59]) with its first
digit flashing, indicating its request for the next parameter number.
