2.17 Test Pattern Generator
The test pattern generator and monitor (TPG and TPM) is a set of configurable test pattern generators and moni-
tors for local self-test, maintenance, and troubleshooting operations.
The TPG feeds one or more T1/E1/DS2 test signals (via data, clock, and FS or AIS signal paths) to the crosspoint
switch which can redistribute or broadcast these signals to any valid channel in the framer, external I/O, M13 map-
per, or VT mapper blocks. The TPG can also generate DS3 test signals.
Any channel arriving at the cross connect may be routed to the test monitor. The test monitors can automatically
detect/count bit errors in a pseudorandom test sequence, loss of frame, or loss of synchronization. The TPM can
provide an interrupt to the control system or it can be operated in a polled mode.
Simultaneous testing of DS1, E1, DS2, and DS3 signals is supported (one channel each).
Supported test patterns are: pseudorandom bit sequence (PRBS15, PRBS20), alternating zeros/ones, and an all-
ones pattern.
The test pattern can be transmitted either unframed or as the payload of a framed signal, as defined in ITU-T Rec-
ommendation O.150.
Single bit-errors may be injected into any test pattern, under register control.
2.18 28-Channel Framer
The block diagrams of the 84 T1/63E1-channel framer in the switching application in the CHI, parallel system bus,
and CHI with byte-synchronous VT mapping, are shown in Figure 10, Figure 11, and Figure 12 (only the major
functional blocks are shown). The block diagrams of the 84 T1/63E1-channel framers in the transport application
are shown in Figure 13 and Figure 14 (only the major functional blocks are shown).
