Templates Configuration
1.
Create Templates to configure the types of channels based on the modules being used (i.e.
Analog Loop Start template for POTS and T1 Wink Start template for T1/E1 modules). The
template will be associated with the channels to be tested when a Control Set is created.
Templates are created by going to the
Templates
menu and clicking
New
. (See the
Templates section, Type Tab for a list of protocols.)
2.
Click the
Channel Protocol
arrow for a list of available protocols. Analog Loop Start is only
used for the POTS module. Create a template for the T1/E1 module and use the appropriate
T1 protocol (i.e. T1 Wink Start). Start by using the defaults for all the fields on the template.
Control Sets Configuration
1.
Create a new “Control Set” by going to the Control Set menu and clicking
New
. A "Control
Set" tells the TSP how to function. This is where the individual channels are assigned to
Templates. Multiple Control Sets are allowed in a single TSP for greater flexibility.
2.
Select the type of Control Set by clicking the
Call Originate
arrow. Calls made using the TSP
are defined as follows:
·
Call Originate - calls placed by the TSP to a connected device. The TSP will play a WAV file
after the call is connected if selected on the Channels tab on the Units screen.
·
Call Terminate - calls placed into the TSP by a connected device. The TSP will play a WAV
file after the call is connected if selected on the Channels tab on the Units screen.
The four control set types below are End-to-End, which are calls placed through the TSP by a
connected device to another device. See End-to-End Control Sets section for more details.
·
Dialed - You have the choice of using one or two templates. Any channel within this control
set can call to any other channel within the control set by dialing the telephone number
assigned on the
Channels
tab of the Units screen.
Note:
When using the Dialed control set type, the Templates used will need to be edited to use the
Dialed
Default Timing Set on the
Type
tab. Go to the
Template
menu and choose the name
at the bottom of the drop down menu to edit.
·
Switch Emulation - connecting one channel to another. This connection is scripted and
occurs automatically once a call is initiated by an off-hook or a seizure.
·
Channel Bank - T1/E1 FXO LS to Analog LS or T1/E1 Clear Channel to Analog LS are the
only protocols that can be used.
·
DS0 to DS0 - T1/E1 Clear Channel Operation is the only protocol available.
3.
Assign the Templates previously created to be used with the channels tested. Click the
Templates
arrow on the Control Set screen and choose the Template names. Call Originate
and Call Terminate will only have one Template field while all other control sets have two
fields.
4.
On the same screen, the channels are assigned by clicking the
Edit Channels
button. A
Channel Assignment
screen will appear and the
Available Channels
will be listed on the left
side of the screen. Select the channels to be tested by moving them from the left window to
the right window. Click
OK
and you will be returned to the
Control Sets
screen. See
Channel
Assignments
section for more details.
Note:
The Switch Emulation, Channel Bank and DS0 to DS0 control set types require the channels to
be paired side by side on the right side of the screen. The channel initiating the call will
automatically be connected to the channel it is paired with.
5.
Program the
Start
and
Stop
times, if applicable. Once steps 3 through 6 are completed, click
the
OK
button. This will return you to the main
TSP
screen. See the Controls Sets section for
more details on Steps 1 through 5.
