Note:
The addresses shown are for Framer 1. The address for Framer 2 can be calculated by adding 200 hex to the framer address.
The framer has three programmable pattern detectors. Typically, two of the detectors are used for “l(fā)oop-up” and
“l(fā)oop-down” code detection. The user programs the codes to be detected in the Receive Up Code Definition
registers (
T1RUPCD1
and
T1RUPCD2
) and the Receive Down Code Definition registers (
T1RDNCD1
and
T1RDNCD2
). The length of each pattern is selected via the Receive In-Band Code Control register (
T1RIBCC
).
There is a third detector (Spare) and it is defined and controlled via the
T1RSCD1
/
T1RSCD2
and
T1RSCC
registers. When detecting a 16-bit pattern, both receive code definition registers are used together to form a 16-bit
register. For 8-bit patterns, both receive code definition registers are filled with the same value. Detection of a 1-,
2-, 3-, 4-, 5-, 6-, and 7-bit pattern only requires the first receive code definition register to be filled. The framer
detects repeating pattern codes in both framed and unframed circumstances with bit-error rates as high as 10E-2.
The detectors can handle both F-bit inserted and F-bit overwrite patterns. Writing the least significant byte of the
receive code definition register resets the integration period for that detector. The code detector has a nominal
integration period of 48ms. Thus, after about 48ms of receiving a valid code, the proper status bit (LUP, LDN, and
LSP) is set to 1. Note that real-time status bits, as well as latched set and clear bits, are available for LUP, LDN,
and LSP (
RRTS3
and
RLS3
). Normally codes are sent for a period of 5 seconds. It is recommended that the
software poll the framer every 50ms to 100ms until 5 seconds has elapsed to ensure that the code is continuously
present.
