    ZERO
    The DTE is sending an excessive number of consecutive zeroes to the network 
    interface.
    NO EXT CLK
    The DTE is not providing an external transmit clock. This alarm displays only if the 
    Video Module DTE port is configured to get its transmit clock from the DTE.
    DTE S
    TATUSShows the status of key  DTE  interface signals.  An asterisk (*) indicates the pres-
    ence of a signal and a hyphen (-) indicates no signal present. 
    The following signals are monitored (these options are read-only):
    D
    ATA RATEDisplays the data rate at which each Video Module  DTE port is currently operating. 
    A port’s data rate is determined by the number of B channels assigned to it and the 
    rate per channel associated with the active call.P

    PLL/FIFODisplays the Phase Lock Loop (PLL) and FIFO status.
    C
    ONFIGURATIONAll of the following configurable parameters apply to the individual Video Module 
    DTE ports.
    P
    RT
    Displays the port number.
    P
    ORT NAME
    Accepts any alpha-numeric name up to 16 characters long, to uniquely identify 
    each DTE port on the Video Module.
    C
    LK +/-
    Controls the clock used by the ATLAS 800 Series to accept the transmit (TX) data 
    from the DTE. This is usually set to N
    ORMAL. If the interface cable is long, causing 
    a phase shift in the data, the clock can be set to I
    NVERTED. This switches the phase 
    of the clock, which compensates for a long cable. 
    D
    ATA
    Controls the inverting of the DTE data. This inversion can be useful when operat-
    ing with a high-level data link control (HDLC) protocol (often used as a means to 
    ensure 1s density). Select either N
    ORMAL or INVERTED. Data inversion configura-
    tion must match on both ends of the circuit.
    CTS
    Determines the behavior of the Clear To Send (CTS) signal. If set to N
    ORMAL, CTS 
    will follow the value of Request To Send (RTS). If set to F
    ORCED ON, CTS will 
    always be asserted. 
    DCD
    Determines the behavior of the Data Carrier Detect (DCD) signal, also called 
    RLSD on some interfaces. If set to N
    ORMAL, DCD will generally be asserted when 
    the interface is capable of passing data (consult the appropriate ATLAS 800 Series 
    User Manual for exact conditions.) If set to F
    ORCED ON, DCD will always be 
    asserted.
    DSR
    Determines the behavior of the Data Set Ready (DSR) signal. If set to N
    ORMAl, 
    DSR will generally be asserted when the interface is capable of passing data. If set 
    to F
    ORCED ON, DSR will always be asserted. P
    ORTIndicates the operating port.
    PLL/FIFODisplays the state of the PLL and FIFO systems.
    L
    OCKPLL is locked (This is required to transfer data.)
    RXEReceive data FIFO empty
    RXFReceive data FIFO full
    TXETransmit data FIFO empty

    DTR
    Selects the response to DTR transitions. The following table lists the configuration 
    options for the DTR parameter with respect to the current configuration for the 
    module in the Dial Plan.
    0 I
    NH
    When the port detects an uninterrupted string of  0s being transmitted for more than 
    one second, setting this parameter to O
    N will cause the ATLAS 800 Series to send 
    1s toward the network.
    T
    ESTThese options initiate different types of tests and display test results.
    L
    OOPBACK
    The Dual Video Module supports both local and remote loopbacks. Selecting 
    L
    OCAL LOOPBACK or REMOTE LOOPBACK initiates the appropriate loopback 
    sequence.
    N
    O LOOPBACK        
    No active loopback
    L
    OCAL LOOPBACK
    Activates both a local loopback (back toward the DTE) and a port loopback 
    (toward the network)
    R
    EMOTE LOOPBACK
    Initiates a local loopback request sent to the remote Dual Video Module. This 
    allows for end-to-end circuit test.Table 3-1.  DTR Descriptions

    ATLAS 800 SERIES VIDEO MODULE: USER TERMINATION
    The ATLAS 800 Series Video Module acts like the network while interfacing to user 
    equipment (video equipment). When you are working in the U
    SER TERM section of 
    the D
    IAL PLAN menu and SLT is defined as a Video Module, the following interface 
    configuration options are available:
    DIALING METHODWrite Security: 3; Read Security: 5
    Selects the method of dialing outbound calls from this endpoint. 
    RS-366Configures the RS-366 dialing interface (associated with this port) to initiate the 
    call.
    MANUALAll outbound calls on this interface must be manually initiated and disconnected us-
    ing the dial plan menus.
    ON DTRAn outbound call to the number entered in the DIAL NUMBER field will be initiated 
    when the Data Transmit Ready (DTR) signal goes high (or active). Calls will be dis-
    connected upon a loss of DTR.
    The following menus are available only when the D
    IALING METHOD is  RS-366.
    RS-366 TYPEWrite Security: 3; Read Security: 5
    Specifies the interface type for the RS-366 dialing port.
    TYPE IIRS-366 is used to select and dial a number entered in the STORED NUMBERS table.
    TYPE IIIRS-366 is used to specify the number to dial and the call parameters using the ADT-
    RAN Smart Dial String format (see Appendix B, Smart Dial String Formats, for 
    more details.)
    DIAL AFTER Write Security: 3; Read Security: 5
    Some RS-366-capable devices will terminate a dial string with an End-Of-Number 
    (EON) character.  If the device does not transmit such a character, the ATLAS will 
    use this value to assume the number is complete and proceed. The following 
    options are available:
    1 
    SEC OR EON 10 SEC OR EON
    2 
    SEC OR EON 20 SEC OR EON
    5 
    SEC OR EON WAIT FOR EON

    UMBERS
    Write Security: 3; Read Security: 5
    Enter the numbers to dial using the RS-366 Type II dialing interface in the stored 
    numbers list.  This list can contain up to 10 stored numbers. 
    #Entry number (1-10)
    DIALActivator to dial or disconnect a call to the specified number.
    DESCRIPTIONAlphanumeric character string (up to 20 characters) used as a descriptor for the num-
    ber entry. Enter a useful description such as VCon5thFloor(Corp).
    DIGITSNumber string (up to 22 digits) to dial.
    TYPESpecifies whether the data rate on the call will be 56 or 64 kbps.
    DIAL ASSpecifies the call type used to populate the Bearer Capability Information Element 
    in the ISDN Call Setup Message. Options include:  D
    IGITAL (Data), VOICE (speech), 
    or A
    UDIO (3.1 kHz audio). 
    SRC IDDefines the source ID assigned to this call to be used for internal ATLAS routing. 
    Source IDs simplify the creation of a dial plan in applications where the criterion for 
    switching calls to a certain endpoint is a function of which endpoint originated the 
    call.
    Zero (0) is the default ID for all endpoints and all accept numbers. If all default 
    S
    OURCE ID values are not modified, calls are routed based only on the dialed num-
    ber.
    Multiple endpoints may have the same S
    OURCE ID.  When creating the CALL 
    ACCEPT list, specify a S
    OURCE ID (s) as well as a dialed number or range of dialed 
    numbers to accept on that endpoint.
    MIN DS0SThis option will specify the minimum number of DS0s necessary for this switched 
    call.  If the call is negotiated and the minimum DS0s value is not met, the call will 
    be disconnected. Any value other than 1 requires a BONDING resource to inverse 
    multiplex the multiple switched channels together.
    MAX DS0SThis option will specify the maximum number of DS0s allowed for this switched 
    call.  If the call is negotiated and the maximum DS0s value is not acceptable to the 
    answering equipment, the call will be disconnected. Any value other than 1 requires 
    a BONDING resource to inverse multiplex the multiple switched channels together.
    DEFAULT CALL 
    T
    YPE
    Write Security: 3; Read Security: 5
    Specifies the data rate for single call as either 56 or 64 kbps if not specified in the 
    Smart Dial string.

    the maximum DS0s value is not acceptable to the answering equipment, the call 
    will be disconnected. Any value other than 1 requires a BONDING resource to 
    inverse multiplex the multiple switched channels together.
    MIN INCOMING 
    DS0
    S
    Write Security: 3; Read Security: 5
    This option will specify the minimum number of DS0s necessary for an incoming 
    switched call to this endpoint. If the call is negotiated and the minimum DS0s value 
    is not met, the call will be disconnected. Any value other than 1 requires a 
    BONDING resource to inverse multiplex the multiple switched channels together.
