TN765 Placement 1

[maverick2689]

Am I correct in saying a TN765 needs to be installed in a specific slot? And if so, where? I really don't want to make a mistake here, and memory tells me there is a specific slot.

Switch is a G3V11 CMC

The Prologix does not support the TN765 Processor Interface card. What type of adjunct are you trying to connect?

Uh-oh. I'm trying to install a point to point T1 (and failing miserably at that, I may add) and can't do a data module processor interface, without the board.

I'm open to suggestions, of course. Any suggestion, actually.

You don't need a data-mod for PRI in a Prologix. You don't need a data-mod for a non-PRI T-1 in any Definity. Are you installing a PRI or non-PRI?

I actually have dry pairs from one location to the other. I have them pinned 1-2/4-5 and then reversed.

I have TN464F's with 120A3's. The switch on the other side (Main node) is a G3r9.5. I currently have it set as non-pri, but can go either way.

Feel like a damn fool. I've done this same operation with Magix, but am struggling mightily with this one.

So how far away is the other location? On one end you are wiring your x-over 1,2,4 & 5 (1,white/orange 2,white/orange 4,blue/white 5,white/blue) on one cable end and (1,white/blue 2,blue/white 4,orange/white 5,white/orange) on the other. At the other end the cable is straight through. The other thing is build a loop back plug and test to each x-connect. If all the circuit test pass your cables are good. See if this helps:

About 500 feet of wire. That is exactly how I pinned out. I hadn't thought to loop it back ye, just figured I had a config issue and moved on. Frustration overtaking common-sense, I suppose.

Thanks for the tip

 

[lopes1211]

Since you are using dry pairs, you can decide to provision yourself for PRI or non-PRI. Which do you intend to use? It's 2 different setups.

[maverick2689]

My 1st inclination is PRI as that's what I've used with Magix. I did a "add ds1" on both ends, set to esf/b8zs/robbet-bit, and the CSU setting set to "integrated".

Built my trunk group at both ends with channels 1-23, and left out 24, which was when I hit my TN765 roadblock (or so I thought)

 

[lopes1211]

the definity ds1 form should be set to "isdn-pri" instead of robbed bit. "connect to" should be set as "line-side". protocol should be set to A (set to at&t custom on the magix). "add signal group next" on the prologix to program the d channel.

-CL

 

[maverick2689]

Yippee, I'll give this a go 1st thing in the a.m. and post how it goes.

Do I do the same for the "add sig" on the r9.5 side as well?

 

[lopes1211]

Everything is the same on both sides except "connect to" on 1 must be set to "line side" (which provides timing to the far end) and 1 must be set to "network" (receives timing from far end). You'll be up in no time.

-CL

 

[maverick2689]

OK.Set up the primary side (the r9.5) DS1 is b8zs/esf/isdn-pri. Connect is "line-side", protocal verion is "a".

Added a new trunk group: type "isdn" direction is 2-way. TAC is 67 (if that matters), service type is tie. I did not change any other settings, then added my 23 members specifying the signalling group (1). Added sig group 1, added my port, ticked associated signalling to "y"

Repeated process in the R11, except set its connect in the ds1 page to network.

Added the trunk groups to the associated routes, and....nothing. Any thoughts about what I may have missed?

 

[lopes1211]

busy and release both boards and "stat sig x" and "stat trunk x" on both ends to see what's going on.

-CL

 

[maverick2689]

busied out primary side and the 1st line said abort error code was 1010

 

[maverick2689]

oops. when I release it it cleared

 

[maverick2689]

OK. Did a "st tru 7" and all members show out-of-service-NE on both sides.

I went and physically reset the boards for the hell of it, same issue. On the primary side light 2 is red, 3 is green and 4 is amber. On the secondary side, only 2 and 4 are lit and both are red.

 

[lopes1211]

and you are sure you have a correct crossover cable? pins 1&2 swapped with 4&5?

-CL

 

[maverick2689]

Double checking now.

 

[maverick2689]

The other thing that could be an issue: When I created the signalling groups I had set associated signalling to "y", I tried it set to "n' and it opened a field for a board and interface ID. Should that be yes or no?

Haven't had a chance to check the crossover yet.
