If a Project is opened that has the previous IP address of a TSP unit, the program will advise of
the new IP address and ask if you want to change to the new IP address. This only occurs on the
PC that was controlling the TSP when the IP was changed.
Slot Tabs
Once the
Card Types
and the connection for programming and control of the TSP are defined,
there are different options available to configure depending on the Card Type. Choose the Slot
Tab that has a Dual T1/E1 or Single T1/E1 card installed. If a T1/E1 card is not being used, skip
to the
4 and 8 Channel POTS Card Type screens
.
Single T1/E1 and Dual T1/E1 Card Types
For T1/E1 modules, the Card Mode field will be displayed to the right of the Card Type field. T1
(default) will be displayed. Clicking the arrow will give the options E1 and T1-PRI.
Note:
T1-PRI is available when the TSP-PRI Software module is purchased. Refer to the TSP-PRI
section for configuring in this mode.
When using two Single T1/E1 modules, both modules have to be configured for the same Card
Mode and PCM encoding /companding. The Slot 3 selection for Card Mode and mu-law or a-law
will be grayed out with the selections on Slot 2.
T1 Card Mode
Figure 17 shows the parameters on the T1 tab in the T1 card mode. The T1 parameters include,
Clock
,
Framing
,
Line Coding
and
PCM Encoding
options. They are configured on this screen by
clicking on the corresponding radio button. The
Line Build-out
defaults to 0-133 ft (0 dB level) but
can be changed for different distances or dB loss expected on the line.

Clock
The
Clock
needs to be set to where one end is providing timing (normally the PSTN) while the
other end is deriving clock from it (usually the CPE). The
Internal
clock setting is used when the
TSP acts as the PSTN and provides the clocking to the equipment under test.
