Pointer Generator
The Pointer generator is able to generate individual pointer movements as follows;
o
For STS pointers:
- SS bits: Program bits 5 and 6 of the H1 byte to be either SONET [10], SONET [00], Unknown [01] or [11]
- Pointer value: Transmits a new pointer address or value with or without a new data flag (NDF). Configurable in a
range of 0 to 782 pointers
- Increment (INC) or Decrement (DEC) pointers with identical polarity by 1 byte in single steps
o
For VT pointers
- VT Pointer value: Set value in a range of 0 to 109 (VT-1.5) and 0 to 139 (VT-2)
- Increment (INC) or Decrement (DEC) pointer value by 1 byte is single steps
The Pointer generator is also able to generate pointer sequences as follows;
