Centracom TDM Addressing & Other Important Switch Settin

Post by d119 »

Lists TDM addresses for setting up Centracom CEB cards, and an explaination of MuxBus and BusyBus as well as other important switch setting information.

* INFORMATION ON SWITCH SETTING CHARTS FOR SYSTEM TIMER MODULES (OLDER CENTRACOM II/II+ TIMERS) AS WELL AS RACK MOUNT CHANNEL CONTROL BOARD SWITCH SETTINGS IS AT THE END OF THIS DOCUMENT.

The following are the switch charts and how to set them for various TDM addresses. Before listing them, I'll explain MuxBus and BusyBus.

Each card (except certain cards like an AEI, etc) have a set of jumpers on them labelled as follows:

M1, M2, M3 and B1, B2, B3. These are the MuxBus (M) and BusyBus (B) jumpers.

Each CEB can handle a maximum of 96 TDM addresses. These 96 TDM addresses are handled by three buses of MUX and BUSY.

The first MuxBus/BusyBus BUS handles TDM addresses 1-32.
The second handles 33-64.
The third handles 65-96.

For the first 32 cards in a CEB, set the M and B jumpers to 1.
For the second 32 cards in a CEB, set the M and B jumpers to 2.
For the third 32 cards in a CEB, set the M and B jumpers to 3.

If I catch any of you with over 32 cards in your home CEB, I'm going to call you a dork.

Over 96 cards requires an Ambassador interface, and I'm not about to try to get into that.

Remember: only 32 TDM addresses can be used per MuxBus/BusyBus setting. Over 32 TDM addresses, make sure you pay attention to where you are with them in relation to number of TDM addresses and MuxBus/BusyBus settings.

Most of you hobbyist types don't need to concern yourselves with MuxBus/BusyBus, just make sure everything is set to 1.

And now: The TDM address chart for Centracom II/II+/Gold Elite.

0 = CLOSED, 1 = OPEN. Settings are listed as Switch 1 -> Switch 8 Left to Right.

Format is:
