control keys while selecting the channels. Click
OK
once the channels have been chosen. This
will take you back to the
Control Set
screen (see Figure 25).
Figure 27 Channel Assignments (T1 Channels)
In this example, the Template was configured for T1 Wink Start type channel and named “
T1
Wink St
” (see Figure 27). The left side under the
Available Channels
has channels 1-24 for both
T1’s and any of the channels can be chosen. Click
OK
once the channels have been chosen.
This will take you back to the
Control Set
screen (see Figure 25).
Start and Stop Fields
The
Start
and
Stop
sections on the
Control Set
screen are only used in Call Originate mode. This
is used to control when the TSP will start making test calls, at what Interval (in seconds, if any)
each call will be placed, and when to stop placing the calls.
Start Section
For starting the test, the choices of
Time
and
Manual
are available in the
Start
section. Selecting
the radio button next to
Time
, enables a field to set a predefined time for the TSP to start testing.
To manually start the test, click in the radio button next to
Manual
. Testing will start immediately
once the
Control Set Enable
button is clicked on the TSP main screen.
Interval Section
The
Interval
section in the lower part of the
Start
section is used to stagger the testing on the
channels. By leaving it set to 0 seconds (the default), all channels assigned to the Control Set will
initiate calls simultaneously once the test begins. Using the Interval will delay the calls to each
channel (in seconds) starting with the first channel listed in the Assigned Channels section. The
number of seconds can be typed directly into the field next to
Interval
or can be increased and
decreased by using the up and down arrows at the right of the field.
