Quick Start Guide
Installation of HCD-E1 should be carried out only by an experienced
technician. If you are familiar with RAD's HDSL modems, use this guide to
prepare HCD-E1 for operation.
1. Installing HCD-E1
HCD-E1 contains two sets of jumpers:
• Main board internal jumpers and DIP switch
• E1 sublink interface board jumpers.
Switch and
Jumper Settings
If you are using HCD-E1 as a central unit (LTU), you can use the default
settings for the main board R/C jumper and DIP switch.
• If you are using HCD-E1 as a remote unit (NTU), do the following:
1. Turn the unit off.
2. Open the HCD-E1 case.
3. Set the R/C jumper (JP4) to the R (remote) position.
4. Set section 2 (DB INIT) of the S1 DIP switch to ON.
5. Turn the unit on for a short time (until self-test is completed).
6. Turn the unit off.
7. Set section 2 (DB INIT) of the S1 DIP switch to OFF.
8. Turn the unit on.
If you are operating HCD-E1 with a balanced E1 interface, you can use the
default settings of the sublink interface board jumpers.
• If you are using HCD-E1 with an unbalanced E1 interface, do the
following:
1. Turn the unit off.
2. Open the HCD-E1 case.
3. Identify and remove the three nuts that fasten the sublink interface
board to the spacers.
4. Remove the nuts and their washers.
5. Disconnect the flat cable from the connector J10 on the main board.
6. Hold the sublink interface board from its sides, and carefully pull it
straight up. Once the board is free, turn the board over the rear panel,
and let it rest on the work table. Do not strain the wires connecting
the board to the BNC connectors.

7. Set the JP12 jumper to UNBAL E1.
8. Set the JP16 and JP17 jumpers to UNBAL.
9. Connect the JP9 jumper.
10. Install the JP8 and JP10 jumpers.
11. Reinstall the sublink interface board by reversing the procedure by
which you removed it. Pay special attention to the following:
ꢀ
Mate correctly the flat cable connector with the corresponding
main board connector.
ꢀ
Make sure that the RJ-45 connector has been properly inserted
into its place in the rear panel, and none of the BNC connectors
wires have been damaged.
ꢀ
Make sure to place the original washers under each nut. Fasten
the nuts tightly.
Connecting the E1 Sublink
Connecting the
Interfaces
• Connect the E1 sublink. For a balanced interface, use an RJ-45
connector and connect it to the HCD-E1 port marked SUB E1. For an
unbalanced interface, use two BNC connectors and connect them to
the HCD-E1 ports marked RX OUT and TX IN.
Connecting the Data Ports
• Connect the DTEs to the HCD-E1 data channel ports. Use the adapter
cables supplied with the unit.
Connecting the Line
• Connect the HDSL line to the HCD-E1 rear panel RJ-45 port designated
HDSL.
Connecting the Control Terminal
• If you are using a control terminal, connect a cable between the control
terminal and the port designated CONTROL DCE.
AC-Powered Unit
Connecting the
Power
• Use the 5 ft (1.5m) standard power cable provided with the unit. Make
sure the ON/OFF switch on the rear panel is set to OFF, then connect
the cable first to the HCD-E1 rear panel, then to the power source.
DC-Powered Unit
• For the DC version of HCD-E1, refer to DC Power Supply Connection
Supplement.

Quick Start Guide
2. Configuring HCD-E1
You can configure and operate HCD-E1 from either the front panel or a
supervisory terminal.
Some of the HCD-E1 configuration parameters depend on the type of remote
unit being used. Therefore, after the HDSL synchronization is reached, wait
for about 1 minute before you start configuring the modem. This allows the
proper recognition of the remote unit and ensures the correct HCD-E1
configuration.
Note
To configure HCD-E1 from the front panel:
Configuring
HCD-E1 from
Front Panel
1. Scroll to the SYSTEM PARAMETER in the top row of the front-panel
LCD and set the system parameters (available for the HCD-E1 unit
configured as central).
2. Scroll to SL PARAMETERS in the top row of the front panel LCD and
configure the time slot allocation.
3. Scroll to CHANNEL PRM in the top row of the front panel LCD and, for
each data channel, configure the data rate, and time slot allocation.
This command also allows you to set several other data transfer
parameters, depending on whether or not the channel has an Ethernet
interface.
4. If your application explicitly requires the use of the unframed mode,
select it under SL PARAMETERS or CHANNEL PRM. Make sure to
assign all 32 times slots to the active port.
5. Scroll to DNLOAD PRM in the top row of the front panel LCD and set
the parameters for inband transmission of management data.
The inband transfer of the management traffic is not available in the unframed
mode.
Note
The remote unit automatically downloads the configuration of the central
unit, unless the CONFIG REMOTE parameter in the SYSTEM PARAMETER
screen of the central unit is set to NO.
If you want to manage HCD-E1 from a remote supervisory terminal, you
must prepare the unit by setting its control port parameters from the front
panel:
Configuring
HCD-E1 from
Control Terminal
1. Scroll to SP PARAMETERS in the top row of the front panel LCD.
2. Set the speed, data rate, parity, interface, and management mode
parameters for the control port.
To configure HCD-E1 from a control terminal:
1. Configure the terminal as follows:
ꢀ
ꢀ
ꢀ
Select full-duplex mode.
Turn the terminal echo off.
Disable any type of flow control.

HCD-E1 Installation & Operation Manual
2. Connect the terminal to the CONTROL DCE port of HCD-E1.
3. Press <Enter> three times.
4. If the terminal displays the password prompt (PASSWORD>), enter the
password. The default password is HCD. If the node number of
HCD-E1 is a number other than zero, enter the node number along
with the password. Use the following syntax:
NODE<Space>’node number’<Space>’password’<Enter>
If there is no password prompt, just enter the node number, followed
by the desired command.
The prompt HCD> appears.
5. Select the control terminal type by entering the DEF TERM command.
The default terminal type is VT-100. The other type options are VT-52,
TV-920, FREEDOM-100, and FREEDOM-220. Use the following syntax
to set the terminal type:
DEF TERM<Space>‘terminal type’<Enter>
If you enter DEF TERM without the terminal type, HCD-E1 resets all the
control terminal codes to 0.
Note
If your terminal requires control sequences different from those used by
the terminals listed above, type the command F and enter your terminal
control sequences. If the current control codes are not compatible with
your terminal and you cannot enter the desired codes, enter the INIT F
command to reset the codes to 0, then use the F command to modify
the control codes starting from the known field values.
6. Set the following additional CONTROL DCE port parameters by
entering the DEF SP command: password protection, idle disconnect
time etc.
7. Set the system parameters by entering the DEF SYS command.
8. Set the sublink parameters by entering the DEF SL command.
9. Configure the data channel parameters by entering the DEF CH X
command, where X is the channel number (1 or 2).
10. If you are using an SNMP management application:
ꢀ
Use the DEF AGENT command to configure the SNMP agent
parameters.
ꢀ
Use the DEF DL command to configure the in-band management
parameters.
11. If you are using the terminal to control a single HCD-E1 unit, do not
change the node number 0 assigned to the unit. For multidrop
operation, you can assign each HCD-E1 unit a node number between 1
and 255. Use the DEF NODE command to assign a node number.

Quick Start Guide
12. You can assign each HCD-E1 unit a logical name of up to eight
characters. The logical name helps identify the source of alarm
messages that HCD-E1 sends to the supervision terminal. Use the DEF
NAME command to assign a logical name.
13. To reset HCD-E1, use the RESET command.
14. To reset a configuration of HCD-E1 to default values, use the INIT DB
command.
• The RESET and the INIT DB commands cause HCD-E1 to reinitialize,
Note
Tips
disrupting traffic through HCD-E1 until it resumes normal operation.
• Change of the framing mode causes double temporary synchronization
loss.
• Use the HELP command to display the correct syntax of commands.
• It is usually sufficient to configure the central unit only, in which case the
central unit’s configuration parameters are automatically downloaded to
the remote unit.

HCD-E1 is a standalone HDSL NTU (Network Terminal Unit) / LTU (Line
Terminal Unit) that provides the user with one E1 sublink drop & insert
port and two n × 64 kbps or n × 56 kbps data channels. Fractional E1 from
the E1 sublink, as well as data from the n × 64 kbps / n × 56 kbps channels
are multiplexed over E1 frames and transferred by the HDSL modem to the
remote location. For direct connection to DACS, RAD’s HCD-E1 unit can
be used in the central office, eliminating the need to convert back to
n × 64 kbps.
General
HCD-E1 supports the transmission of two synchronous data channels and
one E1 sublink, over the HDSL link. The sublink enables the connection of
fractional E1 equipment (digital PBXs), thus enabling HCD-E1 to serve as an
integrating multiplexer for E1 and fractional E1 services.
The mapping of the user’s data to the main link time slots is user-selectable.
For the synchronous data ports and E1 sublink, three mapping methods are
available: bundling into consecutive or alternate time slots, or placing in
individually selected time slots. A sublink time slot is always routed to the
main link time slot with the same number.
In addition, HCD-E1 can also be operated in an unframed mode: in this
mode HCD-E1 accepts a 2048 kbps data stream through the E1 sublink or
data channel and converts it to an unframed G.703 signal for transport over
the HDSL link. Thus, HCD-E1 can also serve as an interface converter and
high-speed, short-distance modem.
HCD-E1 can work with an HDSL repeater (H-RPT) on the main link.
HCD-E1 can check the H-RPT alarm messages and connect/disconnect the
local loopback on H-RPT (LOOP L HRPT).
HCD-E1 can be ordered in several versions, which differ in the number
and type of user ports:
Versions
• One or two synchronous data channels. The data channels can be
ordered with RS-530, V.35, V.36/RS-449, or X.21 interfaces.
• One synchronous data channel (with RS-530, V.35, V.36/RS-449, or X.21
interface) and one Ethernet interface module (IR-ETH, IR-ETH/Q, or
IR-IP).

Statistics Collection
Features
HCD-E1 offers extensive performance statistics collection capabilities:
• E1 performance statistics. When operating with the CRC-4 option
enabled, HCD-E1 stores E1 line statistics in compliance with the
requirements of ITU-T Rec. G.706. The user can display the statistics
collected for the line connected to the E1 sublink of the local unit, as well
as for the link connected to the E1 sublink of the remote unit.
• HDSL performance statistics. HCD-E1 stores performance statistics for
each of the two HDSL lines in compliance with the requirements of
ITU-T Rec. G.826.
Test and Diagnostics Capabilities
HCD-E1 has comprehensive diagnostics capabilities, which include the
following loopbacks:
• Local loopbacks on the data channel and E1 sublink of the local HCD-E1
• Local loopback on the HDSL lines

Chapter 1 - Introduction
• Remote loopbacks on the data channel and E1 sublink of the local
HCD-E1
• Remote loopbacks on the data channel and E1 sublink of the remote
unit.
• Inband-activated remote loopback on the data channel of remote
HCD-E1
• H-RPT local loop (towards the HCD-E1 configured as central) when
working with the HDSL repeater.
In order to enable testing of marginal links, HCD-E1 also offers Bit Error Rate
(BER) testing on the synchronous data channels, using locally generated,
pseudo-random sequence. To provide compatibility with other BER testing
equipment, the user can select the pseudo-random pattern that best
matches his need.
Maintenance is further enhanced by advanced power-up self-test
capabilities, and by an automatically performed cyclic self-test that provides
circuit-level diagnostics data. The user can also read the diagnostic data of
the remote unit through the HDSL link.
HCD-E1 can identify the type of the unit at the remote end of the HDSL
link and provides the user with a possibility to read the diagnostic data of
the remote unit through the HDSL link.
LEDs and Alarms
HCD-E1 responds to any alarm detected during its operation by an alarm
message and stores it in a buffer that can hold up to 100 messages. A front
panel LED indicator lights when the alarm buffer contains alarm messages. The
local operator can then review the contents of the alarm buffer on the front
panel display, or from an ASCII terminal connected to the supervisory port.
HCD-E1 can provide an alarm indication by means of an alarm relay (dry
contacts), which enables remote signaling of alarm conditions when HCD-E1
is located far from the personnel in charge for its proper operation.
In addition to the alarm buffer, front-panel LED indicators display in real
time the status of the E1 sublink and the HDSL lines, and alert when test
loops are present in the system. The status of the LAN in the case of the
Ethernet version is indicated by the Ethernet module LEDs located on the
HCD-E1 rear panel.
Time Slot Handling
When operating in any of the framed modes, HCD-E1 allows the user to
configure the routing of the individual time slots for each of the data
channels, and for the sublink. The routing can be modified during system
operation, without disrupting the service to users of time slots that are not
rerouted. HCD-E1 automatically connects the time slots in both the receive
and transmit directions.

Chapter 1 - Introduction
HCD-E1 Installation & Operation Manual
To expedite the routing, HCD-E1 supports two “bundle” routing modes,
called “sequential bundle” and “alternate bundle” modes. In the sequential
mode, one “bundle” (group of consecutive time slots, identified by the
number of the starting time slot and the total number of time slots) can be
routed to the corresponding main link time slots, where they are inserted in
the main link frame sequentially, in consecutive time slots (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, etc).
In the alternate mode, the time slots are inserted in the following way: 1, 3,
5, 7, etc.
For data channels and the sublink, the user can either individually select the
main link time slots in which the user's data is to be inserted, or can use one
of the “bundle” routing modes. Time slots assigned to data channels are
always defined as data time slots. A sublink time slot is always routed to the
main link time slot with the same number.
Priority Bumping
HCD-E1 will continue working (at a half of its baud rate) even if one of its
HDSL lines is down. The priority bumping feature allows the user to select
the timeslot priority (high or low) in this case. The time slots which have
been assigned high priority will continue being sent on the remaining HDSL
line.
Unframed Mode
HCD-E1 can also be operated in an unframed mode: in this mode HCD-E1
accepts a 2048 kbps data stream through the E1 sublink or data channel and
converts it to an unframed G.703 signal for transport over the HDSL link.
Thus, HCD-E1 can also serve as an interface converter and high-speed,
short-distance modem.
When the unframed mode is selected in the E1 sublink, HCD-E1
transparently transfers the data stream received from the E1 port to the main
link. The E1 sublink or data channel must be configured for operation in
unframed mode at a data rate of 2048 kHz, and the other data ports must
be disconnected from the main link.
1.2 Physical Description
HCD-E1 is a compact unit, intended for installation on desktops or shelves.
The unit height is 1U (1.75").
An optional rack-mount adapter kit enables the installation of one or two

1.3 Functional Description
HCD-E1 data ports support user-selectable transmission rates. The supported
data rates are integer multiples of 56 kbps or 64 kbps (n × 56 kbps or
n × 64 kbps, where n is in the range of 1 to 32, corresponding to rates in the
range of 56 kbps to 1792 kbps, or 64 kbps to 2048 kbps respectively).
Data Channel
Characteristics
HCD-E1 supports the following types of data port interfaces: RS-530, V.35,
X.21, V.36/R-449/422 and IR-ETH (10BaseT or 10Base2), IR-ETH/Q
(10BaseT) or IR-IP (10BaseT).
HCD-E1 has two data ports, each terminated in a 25-pin D-type female
connector. The units with an Ethernet interface arrive with the Ethernet
interface module built in the upper port.
When using the RS-530 interface, equipment with RS-530 interface can be
directly connected to the data channel connector using standard cables.
Equipment with V.36/RS-422/RS-449, X.21 and V.35 interfaces can be
connected by means of adapter cables, supplied with the unit.

Chapter 1 - Introduction
HCD-E1 Installation & Operation Manual
Each HCD-E1 data port supports the following control lines:
• RTS - input from the locally connected data equipment
• CTS - the user can permanently set the CTS line in the active state, or
can make the CTS line follow the RTS line.
• DSR - the DSR line is always active when the HCD-E1 is powered,
except when a remote main link test loopback is activated.
• DCD - the DCD line is active when the HCD-E1 main link interface is
synchronized.
The HCD-E1 sublink (E1) interface meets the requirements of ITU G.703,
G.704, G.706, and G.732. HCD-E1 supports framed and unframed E1 data
streams. For framed data streams, HCD-E1 also supports the CRC-4 option
specified in ITU G.704. CRC-4 use is user-selectable.
E1 Link Interface
Characteristics
The E1 port has two line interfaces: a 120-Ω balanced line interface
terminated in an RJ-45 eight-pin female connector, and a 75-Ω unbalanced
interface terminated in two BNC female coaxial connectors. Line coding is
HDB3. The nominal balanced interface transmit level is 3V, and the
unbalanced interface transmit level is 2.37V. The maximum allowed line
attenuation is up to 10 dB.
To increase the E1 sublink range, it can be ordered with an integral LTU. In
this case, the maximum line attenuation is 36 dB, enabling range of up to
2 km, using typical cables.
Jitter performance complies with the requirements of ITU G.823.
The HCD-E1 HDSL subsystem uses dual duplex transmission over two
2-wire lines. The line code on the HDSL lines is 2B1Q at a rate of
584 kbaud (equivalent to a data transfer rate of 1168 kbps).
HDSL Subsystem
Characteristics
Using advanced equalization, adaptive filtering, and echo cancellation
techniques, HCD-E1 compensates for line impairments, bridged taps, and
mixed cables commonly encountered in the local distribution network.
Moreover, due to its high immunity to background noise, HCD-E1 enables
the transmission of multiple HDSL signals in the same physical cable without
requiring pair selection.
HCD-E1 can operate on unloaded AWG-22, AWG-24, and AWG-26
twisted-wire pairs, and other similar pairs. Up to two bridged taps, having a
length of up to 500m, are tolerated. HCD-E1 achieves typical ranges of
4.8 km (3.0 miles) on AWG-24 (0.5 mm) pairs, and up to 3.8 km (2.4 miles)
on AWG-26 (0.4 mm) pairs. When working with the HDSL repeater
(H-RPT), typical ranges are up to 9.2 km (5.7 miles) from central to remote
unit on AWG-24 (0.5 mm) pairs, and up to 7.2 km (4.5 miles) from central
to remote unit on AWG-26 (0.4 mm) pairs. The HDSL line interfaces are
terminated in an RJ-45 eight-pin female connector.

HCD-E1 Installation & Operation Manual
Chapter 1 - Introduction
The transmission of data on each twisted-wire pair (HDSL line) is full duplex,
and except for the distribution of payload data bits between the two lines,
each HDSL line operates independently.
HCD-E1 provides an embedded operations channel (eoc) within the HDSL
data streams, which enables end-to-end system management and
supervision.
The HDSL subsystem operates in a master-slave mode.
The master unit, called line termination unit (LTU), determines the
distribution of payload data between the HDSL lines, controls the system
start-up procedure, provides the timing reference for HDSL line
transmission, and manages the communication on the eoc channel.
The slave unit, located at the remote end of the link, is called network
termination unit (NTU).
HCD-E1 supports both the central (LTU) and the remote (NTU) operating
modes; the actual operating mode (LTU or NTU) is user-selectable.
If you have a phantom-fed H-RPT on the HDSL link, your HCD-E1 must be
used as NTU only.
Note
Local Control
Management
HCD-E1 is designed for unattended operation. HCD-E1 configuration, that
is, the complete collection of its operating parameters, is determined by a
database stored in non-volatile memory. The database parameters and the
operation of HCD-E1 can be controlled by means of a simple menu,
operated by push buttons located on the front panel. During setup, the
LCD display guides the operator in the execution of the desired operations.
The display provides information concerning the current system
configuration and operating mode, and the available values of each
programmable parameter. In case of operator errors, HCD-E1 displays the
configuration error number, which helps the operator take the correct
action.
Remote Management
In addition to front panel control, HCD-E1 supports management from a
remote location. The remote management capabilities can be used to
configure the HCD-E1 parameters and display status (alarm) messages,
diagnostics information, performance monitoring data, and the test status.
These functions are performed through a serial RS-232 port that enables
serial communication with a supervision terminal.
Using the supervision terminal functions, the user can also enable remote
management using IP communications, i.e., Telnet and SNMP. The IP
communication uses the Serial Link Internet Protocol (SLIP).

Chapter 1 - Introduction
HCD-E1 Installation & Operation Manual
The remote management capabilities available through the serial RS-232
port are as follows:
• Management by means of a Supervision Terminal
• Management by means of Telnet
• SNMP Management.
If you have an H-RPT on your link, you can use either SP or Telnet
management to display the status messages of H-RPT and, if your
application allows this, connect/disconnect the H-RPT loop (from the unit
configured as central). For the description of the H-RPT loop and how to
operate it, refer to Section 5.4, Diagnostic Tests in Chapter 5.
Management by means of a Supervision Terminal. Any “dumb” ASCII
terminal connected to the CONTROL DCE port of HCD-E1 (or a PC running
a terminal emulation program), controlled by the program stored in HCD-
E1, can be used as a supervision terminal.
The supervision terminal can communicate with HCD-E1 using either
point-to-point or polled (multidrop) communication. For polling purposes,
each HCD-E1 can be assigned an eight-bit address, for a maximum of
255 nodes (the zero address is reserved).
As an option, you can connect a dial-up modem to the control port, to
provide call-in capabilities.
In addition to the remote management functions listed above, the
supervision terminal is also used for the preliminary configuration of
HCD-E1, to enable the use of IP communication for Telnet and SNMP
management.
Management by means of Telnet. HCD-E1 also supports the Telnet
protocol, which enables remote management using the same command line
interface available with a supervision terminal. Telnet uses TCP/IP
communication through the RS-232 port of HCD-E1.
SNMP Management. The SNMP management capability enables fully
graphical, user-friendly management using the RADview network
management stations offered by RAD, as well as management by other
SNMP-based management systems.
Inband and Out-of-Band Management
HCD-E1 includes a proprietary IP router for in-band management traffic.
This function enables HCD-E1 to transfer in-band IP and SNMP
management messages generated by or addressed to other HCD-E1 units,
and also transfer in-band management traffic addressed to other RAD
equipment that operates over E1 links, such as MEGAPLEX-2100,
DXC-30/DXC-10A/DXC-8R, etc.

Chapter 1 - Introduction
A basic management topology, which is suitable for both SNMP and Telnet
management, is shown in Figure 1-3. In this example, a network
management station is attached to an Ethernet LAN. A remote access LAN
extender, MBE/RAS/A, is located near the managed equipment (such as
HCD-E1, MEGAPLEX-2100(*), etc.), and its serial ports are connected via
cables to the CONTROL connectors of the equipment.

HCD-E1 also includes an SNMP agent that enables SNMP management of
the HCD-E1, using the UDP-over-IP protocol. The SNMP agent can
communicate out-of-band and/or in-band, where each communication
mode can be separately enabled:
Out-of-band communication is performed via the serial ports of HCD-E1,
using the Serial Link Internet Protocol (SLIP). When using out-of-band
communication, it is necessary to disable the Autobaud function, and select
a specific data rate for the port data rate (9600 bps is recommended).
In-band communication is performed over HDSL lines (i.e., over the main
link), and when applicable, over the sublink as well. This communication
mode uses a proprietary protocol. The user can configure the system to
transfer the in-band management traffic either by means of the E1 time slot
0 (sublink), or in a dedicated user-selected time slot (main link or sublink).
Using in-band management, a user of an SNMP management station
connected to one HCD-E1 can also control the HCD-E1 unit located to the
remote end of the main link, or the sublink.
The in-band management data rate depends on the selected routing
method:
• When using the TS 0 of the sublink, the data rate is 4 kbps.
• When using a dedicated main link slot, the data rate is 64 kbps.
• When using a dedicated sublink slot, the data rate is 8 kbps.
The HCD-E1 SNMP agent must be enabled by the user, so that it will accept
the management messages transmitted by the network management station.

Chapter 1 - Introduction
HCD-E1 Installation & Operation Manual
Each SNMP agent recognizes the messages addressed to its own IP address.
In addition, the SNMP agent includes a proprietary built-in IP router, which
is able to route management messages in accordance with the network
topology determined by the routing algorithm, without requiring the user to
provide a priori topology information on the network. The user can read the
information collected by the IP router on the additional remote SNMP
agents which are served by the router.
The proprietary IP router operates only on the in-band traffic.
The advanced capabilities of the HCD-E1 SNMP agents allow easy
integration of the HCD-E1 in wide-area managed communication systems.
Its capabilities support any practical communication network topology, as
illustrated in the example shown in Figure 1-4.
Figure 1-4 Extended Management Topology Using Network Management Station
The network shown in Figure 1-4 can be managed by a single network
management station, because of the flexible routing capabilities of the
SNMP agent can carry the management traffic over many different paths.

HCD-E1 Installation & Operation Manual
Chapter 1 - Introduction
For example, the following paths can be made available for the management
traffic, when the management station is attached to HCD-E1:
• The network is connected to the network management station using a
single serial communication link, attached to the CONTROL DCE port of
HCD-E1 (system 1).
• In-band communication through the HCD-E1 No. 1 main and sub links is
used to manage the remote units connected to the remote ends of the
corresponding links:
− HCD-E1 No. 2 is managed via the main link of HCD-E1 No. 1.
− The sublink of HCD-E1 No. 1 is connected via the E1 transmission plant
to a remote communication node, which is used to perform rerouting.
The rerouting is based on a digital cross-connect system and E1/T1
converter, DXC-30, also offered by RAD. The DXC-30 can be
configured to support the RAD proprietary in-band management
protocol using time slot 0.
− The DXC-30 transfers the management traffic to several of its ports.
These ports are connected to other systems, e.g., HCD-E1 No. 3,
MEGAPLEX-2100(*) No. 4, etc. Each remote system can relay the
management traffic to other equipment.
Thus an entire wide-area network can be managed by means of a network
management station connected to any HCD-E1 unit (or to any of the other
RAD equipment which supports SNMP management).
Control of Remote Unit from Central Unit
As described above, the operation of the HCD-E1 system is basically
asymmetrical, i.e., the HDSL subsystem inherently operates in a
central (master)/remote (slave) mode. HCD-E1 takes advantage of this
characteristic to expedite the configuration, management and supervision
tasks related to the remote unit.
All the parameters that determine the end-to-end system performance can
be configured on the central unit only. They are automatically transferred
(downloaded) from HCD-E1 configured as central to the unit configured as
remote, using the eoc channel. The user of the local unit configured as
central can also initiate tests on the unit configured as remote.
Using the remote management, the user of the local unit can read and clear
through the eoc channel the alarm messages and performance parameters of
the unit at the remote site.
Thus, HCD-E1 configured as central unit serves as a full-function proxy agent
for the remote unit with respect to all the management methods (LCD,
supervision terminal, Telnet, and SNMP). When using in-band management,
each unit is managed separately and operates as an agent in its own right.

Chapter 1 - Introduction
HCD-E1 Installation & Operation Manual
HCD-E1 offers selectable timing options, which enable the distribution of
timing over the HDSL system, from the central office to the remote end. The
use of stuffing on the HDSL subsystem ensures that the E1 signal and the
data rate provided to the customer equipment by the remote unit are
locked to the timing of the E1 signal and data rate received by the central
unit.
System Timing
HCD-E1 Configured as Central Unit (LTU)
The HCD-E1 unit configured as LTU has two timing modes: external timing
and internal timing.
With external timing, the HCD-E1 system timing is locked to the clock
signals recovered from the incoming clock or to external clock signals
(derived from one of the synchronous data channels or from the E1 sublink).
Figure 1-5 shows the flow of timing signals through the HCD-E1 system in
the external timing mode.

Figure 1-6 Flow of Timing Signals through HCD-E1 System in the Internal Timing Mode
HCD-E1 Configured as Remote Unit (NTU)
The HCD-E1 unit configured as NTU always locks its internal system timing
to the incoming HDSL signals, that is, to the timing of the unit configured as
central. The timing is derived from the clock signal recovered from line A; if
line A fails, HCD-E1 automatically switches to the clock signal recovered
from line B.
Data Channel Timing
The HCD-E1 data ports have three timing modes: DCE, DTE1 and DTE2.
• In the DCE timing mode, the HCD-E1 data channel provides transmit
and receive clocks for the equipment connected to the data port.
• In the DTE1 timing mode, the HCD-E1 data channel sends the receive
data accompanied by the receive clock, derived from the main system
clock, to the data equipment connected to the data port, and accepts
data according to the data equipment transmit clock.
• In the DTE2 timing mode, the HCD-E1 data channel transmits and
receives data according to the clock signals provided by the equipment
connected to the data port. When using this clocking mode, the main
link timing must be locked to the clock signal supplied by the data port
interface. The DTE2 mode is not available on channels with X.21
interface.
Figure 1-7 shows a typical application which uses one of the data channels,

HCD-E1 Installation & Operation Manual
Figure 1-7 Data Channel Timing, Flow of Timing Signals in a Typical Application
In the application shown in Figure 1-7, the data equipment located on the
customer’s premises uses the HCD-E1 link to connect to a data network.
Since data networks include accurate timing sources and do not accept data
whose timing deviates significantly from the network timing, it is necessary
to ensure that the equipment located on the customer's premises uses the
data network timing.
For this purpose, the HCD-E1 unit connected to the data network uses
channel 2 as its timing source, and therefore its main link timing is locked to
the data network timing.
The HCD-E1 unit located on the customer’s premises uses main link timing.
As a result, its system timing is also locked to the data network timing, and
the network timing is transferred to the data equipment located on the
customer's premises.
Note that the other data channel of the two HCD-E1 units must use DCE
timing (or DTE1 timing, provided the data equipment operates with
loopback timing). This enables locking the timing of the other equipment to
the accurate timing source serving the data network.
Manual Selection of Data Channel FIFO size (DTE2 Mode)
To optimize jitter performance, the FIFO size of the data channels operating
in the DTE2 mode can be selected manually ( 16 bits, 30 bits, 52 bits, or
72 bits). The manually-selected value cannot be less than the
automatically-selected value. Table 1-1 lists these values for different data
channel rates.

Sublink Timing Application
Figure 1-8 shows a typical application which uses the sublink as the timing
reference source, and illustrates the flow of timing signals within the system.
In the application shown in Figure 1-8, a PABX is connected by a HDSL link
to a digital exchange, and must therefore use the exchange timing. For this
purpose, the HCD-E1 unit connected to the exchange uses the clock signal
recovered from the sublink as the system timing reference, and HCD-E1
located on the customer’s premises uses main link timing (LBT).
Therefore, the system timing of HCD-E1 located on the customer's premises
is locked to the digital exchange timing. The exchange timing is thus
transferred to the PABX located on the customer's premises.
Note that the data channels of the two HCD-E1 units must use DCE timing
(or DTE1 timing, provided the data equipment operates with loopback
timing). This enables locking the timing of all the other equipment
connected to the HCD-E1 units to the accurate timing source serving the
digital exchange.

The E1 (CEPT) Environment
The E1 line interfaces of the HCD-E1 comply with the applicable
requirements of ITU-T Rec. G.703, G.704, G.706, G.732, and G.823.
E1 Signal Structure
The E1 line operates at a nominal rate of 2.048 Mbps, using a line signal
encoded according to the High-Density Bipolar 3 (HDB3) code. The data
transferred over the E1 line is organized in frames. Each E1 frame includes
256 bits. The E1 frame format is shown in Figure 1-9.

The 256 bits consist of 32 time slots of eight bits each, that carry the data
payload. The frame repetition rate is 8,000 per second, and therefore the
data rate supported by each time slot is 64 kbps. The number of time slots
available for user data is maximum 31, because time slot 0 is always used for
frame synchronization.
Time Slot 0
Time slot 0 is used for two main purposes:
• Delineation of frame boundaries. For this purpose, in every second frame
time slot 0 carries a fixed pattern, called Frame Alignment Signal (FAS).
Frames carrying the FAS are defined as even frames, as they are assigned
number 0, 2, 4, etc. when larger structures (multiframes) are used.
The receiving equipment searches for this fixed pattern in the data stream
using a special algorithm, a process called frame synchronization. Once this
process is successfully completed, the equipment can identify each bit in the
received frames.
• Transmission of housekeeping information. In every frame without FAS
(odd frames), time slot 0 carries housekeeping information. This
information includes:
− Bit 1 - this bit is called the international (I) bit. Its main use is for error
detection using the optional CRC-4 function.
− Bit 2 - this bit is always set to 1, a fact used by the frame alignment
algorithm.

Chapter 1 - Introduction
HCD-E1 Installation & Operation Manual
− Bit 3 - this bit is used as a Remote Alarm Indication (RAI), to notify the
equipment at the other end that the local equipment lost frame
alignment, or does not receive an input signal.
− The other bits, identified as Sa4 through Sa8, are designated national
bits, and are actually available to the users, provided agreement is
reached as to their use. RAD equipment with SNMP agents can use
the Sa4 bit for in-band management traffic. The total data rate of the
in-band management traffic when using the Sa4 bit, is 4 kbps.
Multiframes
To increase the information carrying capacity without wasting bandwidth,
the frames are organized in larger patterns, called multiframes. Two types of
multiframes are generally used:
• G732N, which consists of 2 frames (one odd frame and one even frame).
The G732N multiframe is generally used when time slot 16 is available to
the user. In this mode, the maximum number of time slots available for
payload is 31 (maximum payload data rate of 1984 Kbps). For systems
which use the Common-Channel Signaling (CCS) method, the CCS
information is often transmitted in time slot 16.
• G732S, which consists of 16 frames. The G732S multiframe is generally
used when time slot 16 serves for the transmission of end-to-end
signaling using Channel-Associated Signaling (CAS). CAS is typically used
on links that transfer voice channels. In this mode, the maximum number
of time slots available for payload is 30 (maximum data rate of
1920 kbps).
E1 Line Statistics Using CRC-4 Error Detection
HCD-E1 supports the CRC-4 function in accordance with ITU G.704, which
allows the evaluation of the quality of transmission over E1 links.
When the CRC-4 option is enabled, frames are arbitrarily grouped in groups
of 16 (these groups are called CRC-4 multiframes, and do not bear any
relationship to the 16-frame multiframe structures used with the G732S
super-frame explained above). A CRC-4 multiframe always starts with a
frame that carries the frame alignment signal. The CRC-4 multiframe
structure is identified by a six-bit CRC-4 multiframe alignment signal,
which is multiplexed into bit 1 of time slot 0 of each odd-numbered (1, 3, 5,
etc.) frame of the multiframe (up to frame 11 of the CRC-4 multiframe).
Each CRC-4 multiframe is divided into two submultiframes of 8 frames
(2048 bits) each. The detection of errors is achieved by calculating a four-bit
checksum on each 2048-bit block (submultiframe). The four checksum bits
calculated on a given submultiframe are multiplexed, bit by bit, in bit 1 of
time slot 0 of each even-numbered frame of the next submultiframe.

HCD-E1 Installation & Operation Manual
Chapter 1 - Introduction
At the receiving end, the checksum is calculated again on each
submultiframe and then compared against the original checksum (sent by
the transmitting end in the next submultiframe). The results are reported by
two bits multiplexed in bit 1 of time slot 0 in frames 13, 15 of the CRC-4
multiframe, respectively. Errors are counted and used to prepare statistic
data on transmission performance.
E1 (CEPT) Line Signal
The basic E1 line signal is coded using the High-Density Bipolar 3 (HDB3)
coding rules. The HDB3 coding format is an improvement of the Alternate
Mark Inversion (AMI) code.
In the AMI format, “ones” are alternately transmitted as positive and
negative pulses, whereas “zeros” are transmitted as a zero voltage level. The
AMI format cannot transmit long strings of “zeros”, because such strings do
not carry timing information.
The HDB3 coding rules restrict the maximum length of a “zero” string to
three pulse intervals. Longer strings are encoded at the transmit end to
introduce non-zero pulses. To allow the receiving end to detect these
artificially-introduced pulses and to enable their removal to restore the
original data string, the encoding introduces intentional bipolar violations in
the data sequence. The receiving end detects these violations and when
they appear to be part of an encoded “zero” suppression string - it removes
them.
Bipolar violations which are not part of the HDB3 zero-suppression string
are assumed to be caused by line errors, and are counted separately, to
obtain information on the quality of the transmission link when the CRC-4
function is not used.
E1 Line Alarm Conditions
The loss of frame alignment (also called loss of synchronization) condition
is declared when too many errors are detected in the frame alignment signal
(FAS), e.g., when 3 or 4 FAS errors are detected in the last 5 frames. Loss of
frame alignment is cleared after no FAS errors are detected in two
consecutive frames. The loss of frame alignment is reported by means of the
A bit (see Figure 1-5).
The alarm indication signal (AIS) is an unframed “all-ones” signal, and is
used to maintain line signal synchronization in case of loss of input signal,
e.g., because an alarm condition occurred in the equipment that supplies
the line signal. Note that the equipment receiving an AIS signal loses frame
synchronization.
The excessive bit error rate is measured on the frame alignment signal. The
alarm threshold is an error rate higher than 10-3 that persists for 4 to 5
seconds. The alarm condition is canceled when the error rate decreases
below 10-4 for 4 to 5 consecutive seconds.

HDSL Environment
Transmission Media
HDSL systems are intended to operate on the local subscriber plant, which
typically uses a mixture of unshielded twisted-wire pairs. Moreover, it is also
necessary to tolerate bridged taps. HDSL systems properly operate on this
media. The only requirement is that the lines must not be loaded. In
addition, it is assumed that the nominal impedance of the pairs is 135Ω,
and that the pairs are balanced with respect to ground.
Because of the variance in the transmission characteristics of the lines, HDSL
systems must compensate for the differential transmission delay between the
lines being used by a given system.
HDSL Line Signal
The line code on the HDSL line is 2B1Q (2 Binary, 1 Quaternary). This is a
four-level pulse-amplitude modulation code without redundancy, under
which each pair of information bits is converted to a quaternary symbol,
called quat (bits can assume two levels, whereas quats have four levels).
The encoding rule of the 2B1Q code is as follows:
Binary Digits Quaternary Symbol
00
01
10
11
-3
-1
+3
+1
The levels of the quaternary signal are symmetrically located around the 0V,
and the nominal peak symbol level specified by the HDSL standards is
2.64V. Figure 1-6 illustrates the 2B1Q encoding rule.

Due to the encoding of two bits into one symbol, the symbol rate on the
HDSL line is half the bit rate. Taking into consideration a payload rate of
2048 kbps and framing overhead, for two-loop operation the required
per-loop data rate is 1168 kbps (equivalent to a symbol rate of 584 kbaud).

HCD-E1 Installation & Operation Manual
Chapter 1 - Introduction
By reducing the line symbol rate, the maximum range that can be reached is
increased. Together with the advanced digital signal processing techniques
implemented in HDSL systems, this results in a robust data transmission
system that can reliably operate over regular unconditioned local loops,
while exceeding several times the ranges that can be achieved by direct
transmission of an E1 signal.
HDSL Line Signal Structure
The HDSL line signal is organized in frames. Each frame has a nominal
duration of 6 msec: this translates to 3504 quats (7008 bits) for two-loop
systems. However, due to the use of stuffing, frames without stuffing quats
are actually one quat shorter, while frames with stuffing are one quat longer
than the nominal.
The HDSL frames carry the following types of data:
• Core frames
• Synchronization words
• HDSL overhead quats
A core frame consists of 144 bytes (1152 bits). The structure of the core
frames depends on the type of data being carried. The core frames are split,
on a per byte basis, for transmission in parallel over the HDSL lines.
Figure 1-11 shows the mapping of the 32 application time slots of the core
frame into the two groups of 18 time slots carried by the two HDSL lines:
− Time slots 0 and 16 are carried in parallel on both HDSL lines.
− HDSL line 1 carries the odd-numbered application time slots up to
time slot 16, and then even-numbered application time slots.
− HDSL line 2 carries the even-numbered application time slots up to
time slot 16, and then odd-numbered application time slots.
− The last HDSL time slot is filled with ones (AIS signal).
The synchronization word consists of 7 quats, and its function is to enable
HDSL frame alignment.
16 HDSL overhead quats are used to carry the following data:
• Indications such as far-end block error (FEBE), loss of signal and bipolar
violations on the E1 interface.
• Embedded operations channel (eoc). The eoc allows supervision and
management of system operation (status, diagnostic loopbacks and tests,
repeater support, etc.) or vendor-defined functions (e.g., configuration
downloading).
• Identification of the HDSL line number (seven quats). This allows the
receiver to detect unintentional interchange of pairs.

HCD-E1 Installation & Operation Manual
Chapter 1 - Introduction
HDSL-Related System Functions
The HDSL subsystem performs the following main functions:
• Mapping of input data bits into HDSL frames, for transmission on the
HDSL lines
• Start-up process
• Frame alignment
• Loop identification and correction
• System management by means of the eoc channel
• Collection of performance data.
To achieve proper operation, the management of the HDSL subsystem is
performed under the control of the central unit (LTU) unit, which provides
the timing reference for HDSL line transmission, and manages the
communication on the eoc channel with the remote unit (the NTU) located
on the customer's side.
The transmission of data on each HDSL line is full duplex. To enable duplex
transmission over one pair, the HDSL transceivers use an echo canceler,
based on advanced digital signal processing (DSP) techniques. When starting
system operation, the echo canceler is “trained”, to enable the separation of
the received signal from the transmit signal (near-end crosstalk - NEXT). The
training is performed by transmitting a special sequence for a predetermined
period. This process is called “start-up process”; data transmission can start
only after its successful completion.
Interaction between E1 Port and HDSL Lines
In case the E1 sublink interface loses synchronization, a loss of input data
indication signal is sent via the HDSL lines.
In case an HDSL line interface loses synchronization, idle code is inserted in
the E1 data stream time slots, which have been assigned to this line.

The internal jumpers and switches located on the HCD-E1 main board are
identified in Figure 2-1. The functions of jumpers and switches are described
below.
Switch S1
DIP switch S1 allows you to enforce the default password and node number
(section 4) or reload the desired group of default parameters (sections 2 and
3). Any changes in switch section positions must be performed on a unit not
connected to power.
If you want to change the hardware configuration of your HCD-E1 (for
example, remove an E1 sublink or one of the data channels from the unit),
you will have to reload its database with default parameters (see below and
the DB INIT command in Chapter 4).
Note
• Switch section 1 – not used in this unit and is reserved as spare.
• Switch section 2 – DB INIT. This section selects the source of the
database configuration parameters:
ON
HCD-E1 uses the default parameters stored in its
EPROM for reloading of the database.
OFF
HCD-E1 uses the parameters stored in the database.
HCD-E1 is delivered with the database loaded with the default
parameters. If needed, you can move the switch to the ON position
again, to reload the database and restart HCD-E1 with the default
parameters.

in Chapter 3.
OFF
HCD-E1 uses the parameters stored in the database.
HCD-E1 is shipped with section 3 set at OFF.
• Switch section 4 – PASSWD. To prevent unauthorized personnel from
using the HCD-E1 supervision program, you can use password
protection with a password, consisting of up to eight alphanumeric
characters. HCD-E1 is delivered with a default password, HCD, but
normally the password is selected by the user.
ON
HCD-E1 uses the default password.
OFF
HCD-E1 uses the user-selected password.
HCD-E1 is shipped with section 4 set at OFF.
You can make HCD-E1 temporarily use default values of the password
(control port parameters) without erasing the user-selected values from the
database. To do this, set the PASSWD (DEF SP) section to ON, leaving DB
INIT at OFF and turn the unit on. Then, when you turn HCD-E1 off, reset the
appropriate section to OFF and turn the unit on again, HCD-E1 will use the
user-selected parameters.

HCD-E1 Installation & Operation Manual
Chapter 3 - Front Panel Operating Instructions
3.3 Control of HCD-E1 Operation
The HCD-E1 operating mode is determined by a set of parameters stored in
an internal non-volatile memory. To select these parameters, you can use
the HCD-E1 front panel push buttons or a control terminal.
General
After the operating parameters have been loaded (this process is called
configuration setup), HCD-E1 no longer requires operator attendance.
The configuration selected by the user and stored in the HCD-E1 memory is
not affected when power is turned off. Upon turn-on, HCD-E1 checks the
validity of the stored configuration data, and after the self-test takes the last
selected configuration (unless you have changed the default setting of DIP
switch S1, Section 2, from OFF to ON, as described in Chapter 2,
Installation). If the configuration does not require modification, HCD-E1 is
ready for operation immediately after power is applied. However, if the
configuration data is corrupted, HCD-E1 loads a default configuration
instead. The default configuration, prepared by the manufacturer, is stored
in the EPROM.
All operations are performed using an interactive, menu-driven interface,
controlled by the LCD and three push buttons. HCD-E1 guides you in the
execution of the required task by means of messages and checks your
inputs. Moreover, HCD-E1 will suggest you only those parameter values
which are available on your HCD-E1 model in the selected operating mode.
If you make a configuration error (for example, you select a parameter value
that conflicts with the current operating mode), HCD-E1 rejects the
erroneous selection and displays an error message that identifies the error.
For detailed operating instructions, see Section 3.5 and Section 3.6.
The HCD-E1 display has two rows:
Organization of
the LCD
• The upper row shows the header, which can be one of the following:

HCD-E1 Installation & Operation Manual
Chapter 3 - Front Panel Operating Instructions
The LCD displays four types of information messages:
Information
Displayed on the
LCD
• Status messages (alarms)
• Diagnostics and performance monitoring data
• Test status
• Configuration parameters.
Status Messages (Alarms)
When HCD-E1 is not being configured and neither PORT DIAG nor HDSL
DIAG is displayed, it displays one of the two screens that appear under the
header ALARM BUFFER. If the alarm buffer contains status messages
(ON-state alarms), the LCD second row shows “SCROLL CLEAR” and the
ALM indicator is lit. Otherwise, the ALM LED is off, and the second row of
the LCD shows “EMPTY”.
For the definition of ON-state alarms, list of alarm messages and instructions
how to work with them, refer to Section 5.2, Status Indications and Alarms,
in Chapter 5.
Diagnostics and Performance Monitoring Data
HCD-E1 can display the E1 port traffic performance parameters gathered
when operating with the CRC-4 function enabled. When the CRC-4
function is disabled, the HCD-E1 can still display BPV statistics.
In addition, HCD-E1 can display the HDSL line performance parameters.
The diagnostics data appear under the headers PORT DIAG: SL and
HDSL DIAG. For explanation of the diagnostics data parameters and their
monitoring, refer to Section 5.3, Performance Diagnostics Data, in
Chapter 5.
Test Functions
The test functions of HCD-E1 include:
• Local and remote loopbacks on the E1 port, data channels, and local
loopback on the HDSL lines.
• Remote loopbacks on the E1 port and data channels of the remote unit.
• Bit error rate testing on each data channel.
• In-band activated remote loopback on each data channel
• Local loopback on the H-RPT (when working with the latter and your
HCD-E1 is configured as central)
The test options appear under the header TEST OPTION. For description of
the test functions and instructions how to operate them, refer to Section 5.4,
Diagnostic Tests, in Chapter 5.

HCD-E1 Installation & Operation Manual
Configuration Parameters
HCD-E1 configuration parameters are divided into the following seven
groups: system parameters (SYSTEM PARAMETER), sublink parameters
(SL PARAMETERS), channel parameters (CHANNEL PRM), control port
parameters (SP PARAMETERS), priority bumping parameters
(PB PARAMETERS), BERT parameters (BERT PRM), and download
parameters (DNLOAD PRM).
Section 3.4 describes each group of parameters and provides practical
configuration guidelines, where necessary.
In addition to the parameters configured from the front panel, there are
parameters that can be controlled only from the control terminal. These are
described in Chapter 4.
HCD-E1 operation is controlled by means of the LCD and the three push
buttons designated CURSOR, SCROLL and ENTER. The same control actions
are consistently used for all the activities:
Using Front-Panel
Push Buttons
Cursor
Use this push-button to indicate what you want to
change. Pressing the CURSOR push button moves the
cursor (a bar that indicates the selected field) among
the fields in the current display.
Scroll
Some fields list several different items. You can change
(“scroll”) the item indicated by the cursor by pressing
SCROLL.
Press this push button repeatedly to display the
alternatives for the current field indicated by the cursor.
Holding this button pressed causes automatic scrolling
of the available alternatives.
Enter
Press this button once to select the value displayed in
the field indicated by the cursor.
• If the selected value is valid, it replaces the old
value and the change takes effect immediately.
• If your selection is incorrect, it is not accepted. In
this case, HCD-E1 displays a CONFIG ERROR
message with a two-digit code in the second display
row. The code indicates what is wrong. After a short
time, the error message disappears and HCD-E1
returns to the original display. Now you can correct
the error. Refer to Section 5.5 for the list of the error
codes and description of what to do to correct the
error.

Additional Functions of ENTER
The ENTER key has two additional functions:
1. When the LCD displays the ALARM BUFFER screen, the ENTER key can
be used to delete all the alarm messages in the buffer.
2. When the LCD displays the PORT DIAG or HDSL DIAG screens, the
ENTER key can be used to reset the performance monitoring counter
being displayed (see Displaying Performance Data on the Front-Panel
LCD in Chapter 5).

Prior to setting CLK MASTER to CH1 or
CH2, you must set the timing mode of
the corresponding channel to DTE2
and assign at least one time slot (see
Table 3-5, Channel Parameters, or the
DEF CH command in Chapter 4).
Default: INT
Note: When HCD-E1 is configured as a remote unit, the CLK MASTER parameter doesn’t appear at all. The clock is always locked to the
recovered receive clock of the HDSL line. This locks the outgoing timings of the E1 port and data channels to the timing of the HDSL
signal. If both lines operate normally, HCD-E1 uses the recovered clock of line A (line 1); if line 1 fails, HCD-E1 automatically switches to
the recovered clock of line 2.
CLK_FBACK*
Selects the

reference, for use
in case the master
reference fails.
NONE
No fallback source is used. In this case, the
internal oscillator is automatically selected
when the master reference fails.
Select a source different from that
selected as master. To disable switching
to the fallback source, select NONE. In
this case, the default fallback clock
source is the HCD-E1 internal clock
oscillator.

HCD-E1 Installation & Operation Manual
Chapter 3 - Front Panel Operating Instructions
3.5 Operating Instructions
This section covers the following activities:
• Turning HCD-E1 on
• Checking the HCD-E1 configuration
• Normal HCD-E1 operating indications
• Monitoring the HCD-E1 performance
• Turning HCD-E1 off
Refer to Section 3.6 for local configuration setup instructions.
To turn HCD-E1 on, set the rear POWER switch to ON (AC version) or
connect it to the power supply (DC version). Upon turn-on, HCD-E1
performs a self-test: observe the front-panel indications.
Turning HCD-E1
On
During the self-test, HCD-E1 displays its current software revision:
HCD REV 2.1
SELF TEST
After successfully completing the self-test procedure, HCD-E1 switches to
the default ALARM BUFFER screen.
If HCD-E1 fails the self-test, its LCD will display a description of the fault. In
this case, HCD-E1 must be repaired before it can be used again.
Access to the inside of the unit is permitted only to qualified and
authorized personnel
Warning
If the self-test reveals that configuration data selected by the user and stored
in the HCD-E1 database is corrupted, HCD-E1 generates the DB CHKSUM
ERR alarm message. In this case, it is necessary to initialize the database. To
do this, use the INIT DB command, if you have access to a control terminal.
Otherwise, do the following:
1. Set Section DB INIT of the internal switch S1 to ON.
2. Turn HCD-E1 on for a short time (until the power-up self-test is
performed) .
3. Return the DB INIT switch section to OFF. Now HCD-E1 is operating
with the default parameters. The parameter values included in the
default configuration are listed in Section 3-4.
4. Configure the unit, if necessary.
Refer to Chapter 2 for more detailed procedures.

modification of its parameters. You will be able to configure HCD-E1 from
the front panel only if its password protection is disabled. Otherwise, you
can use the HCD-E1 front panel to display the current parameter values, but
cannot modify them. If you try to modify a parameter or perform a test
function from the front panel while the password protection is enabled,
HCD-E1 will display CONFIG ERROR 04 (for the list of configuration error
messages see Table 5-5 in Chapter 5).
If you have access to an ASCII control terminal, you can use the DEF SP
command to enable or disable the password protection (see Chapter 4 for
detailed instructions).
If the terminal is not available, you must set for a short time the DB INIT
section of the internal switch S1 to ON for disabling password protection, as
explained in Section 2-4.
This action will delete all the current parameters on your HCD-E1 and make
it use the default parameter values. If your unit is configured as central, these
parameters will be also automatically downloaded to the remote unit. That is
to say, now you will need to reconfigure both the central and the remote
unit. The only case you would not have to do it is when your unit is
configured as remote and you want its parameters to be automatically
downloaded from the unit configured as central (its CONFIG REM parameter
from SYSTEM PARAMETER menu set at YES).
Note
Before starting the configuration procedure, make sure that all the
user-initiated loopbacks are disconnected. To disconnect the loopbacks,
select OFF under the TEST OPTION field (see Section 5.4, Diagnostic Tests,
in Chapter 5).
General
Configuration
Procedure
If your configuration attempt is invalid, HCD-E1 shortly displays a CONFIG

Chapter 4
Control from the
Supervisory Port
4.1 General
This chapter provides detailed instructions for the management of HCD-E1
by means of ASCII terminals and IP hosts using the Telnet protocol.
The initial configuring of HCD-E1 is to be performed using a standard ASCII
terminal connected to the HCD-E1 control port, CONTROL DCE. However,
after performing the initial configuration, you can manage HCD-E1 using
any of the following three options:
• Use the terminal as a supervision terminal, for performing all the
management activities supported by the HCD-E1.
• Manage HCD-E1 from any IP host using the Telnet protocol. After
establishing a Telnet session with HCD-E1, the Telnet protocol offers the
same functionality as the supervision terminal, and in addition enables
remote access over IP networks.
• Manage HCD-E1 by means of SNMP-based network management
stations, e.g., the RADview network management station offered by RAD,
using the SLIP protocol for communication.
This chapter includes the following information:
• Description of supervision terminal hardware requirements,
communication and handshaking - Section 4-2.
• Starting a management session by means of the supervision terminal -
Section 4-3.
• Description of the set of commands and command syntax available for
the supervision terminal - Section 4-4 and Section 4-5. The same
command set is available to Telnet users.
• General operating instructions, including start-up, routine operations, and
stopping of remote control - Section 4-6.
The instructions appearing in this chapter assume that the supervision
terminal operator is familiar with the HCD-E1 system and with its
configuration parameters.
For instructions regarding the use of the RADview network management
station, refer to the RADview User's Reference Manual.

Chapter 4 - Control from the Supervisory Port
HCD-E1 Installation & Operation Manual
4.2 Hardware Requirements
Any standard ASCII terminal (“dumb” terminal or personal computer
emulating an ASCII terminal) equipped with a V.24/RS-232 communication
interface can be used to control HCD-E1 operation. Make sure to initialize
HCD-E1 for correct terminal operation as explained in Section 4-3,
otherwise some of the commands may not work properly.
Terminal
Characteristics
The software necessary to run the HCD-E1 control program is contained in
the HCD-E1 system.
Typically, the Telnet host is a PC with the appropriate suite of TCP/IP
protocols, or a UNIX station.
Telnet (IP) Host
Characteristics
The Telnet host can be directly connected to the managed HCD-E1 unit, or
located at any site from which IP communication be established to the
managed HCD-E1.
HCD-E1 has a V.24/RS-232 asynchronous DCE port, designated CONTROL
DCE and terminated in a 9-pin D-type female connector. The control port
continuously monitors the incoming data stream and will immediately
respond to any input string received through this port; moreover, when
configured to support SLIP, messages in each of the supported protocols are
automatically identified and processed.
Control Port
Interface
Characteristics
The supervision terminal can be connected either directly to the HCD-E1
control port (the CONTROL DCE connector), or through a modem or any
other type of full-duplex data link. The HCD-E1 control port interface type
must be set in accordance with the connection method (see Section 3-6):
DCE
Intended for direct connection to terminals. Since terminals
usually have DTE interfaces, in this case the connection to the
port is made by means of a straight-through cable.
DTE
Intended for connection through a modem or data link. In this
case, you need a cross cable (also called null modem cable) to
connect to the CONTROL DCE connector.
The HCD-E1 control port can be configured to communicate at rates of 300,
1200, 2400, 4800, or 9600 bps. The word format consists of one stop bit
and 7 or 8 data bits. Parity can be odd, even or disabled.
HCD-E1 supports two types of modems:
• Dial-up Hayes compatible modems. HCD-E1 has call-in capability, that
is, it can accept external calls.
• Multidrop modems, such as the RAD SRM-8 miniature multidrop
modem.

HCD-E1 Installation & Operation Manual
Chapter 4 - Control from the Supervisory Port
For multidrop operation, each HCD-E1 can be assigned a node number in
the range of 1 through 255. Assigning node number 0 to the HCD-E1 means
that it will accept and answer any message: this is not permitted in
multidrop operation. Node number 0 is however recommended for use
with both point-to-point and dial-up modes.
Each HCD-E1 can be assigned a logical name of up to eight characters. The
logical name is sent in each transmission of alarm messages. The name helps
the operator to identify the source of messages that are received by the
supervision terminal.
The relevant HCD-E1 configuration parameters are described in Section 3-5
and Section 4-5. Instructions for configuring the HCD-E1 control port appear
in Section 3-8.
The control lines being used in each DCE and DTE modes and the direction
of the control signals are detailed in the following chart.

Data Terminal Ready (DTR)
The terminal sets the DTR line ON (active) to gain control over HCD-E1 and
start a configuration/monitoring session.
When the DTR is ON, the front panel controls are disabled, and the LCD
displays a message that notifies the operator that HCD-E1 is under remote
management:
• When the management mode defined by means of the DEF SP
command (or SP PARAMETERS on the front panel) is the supervision
terminal (AUXILIARY DEVICE = TERMINAL), the LCD shows TERMINAL
ON LINE.
• When the management mode is the Telnet or SNMP
(AUXILIARY DEVICE = NMS-SLIP), the LCD shows NETWORK ON LINE
and displays the IP address.
When you end the terminal control connection, returning the control to the
HCD-E1 front panel, the DTR line goes OFF (becomes inactive).

HCD-E1 Installation & Operation Manual
Request to Send (RTS)
The RTS line is normally ON (active) when the supervision terminal is in
session.
When the RTS line is OFF (inactive), HCD-E1 interprets any data received
from the terminal on the TD line as MARK.
Clear to Send (CTS)
The state of the CTS line is determined by the CTS parameter:
ON
The CTS line is always ON (active).
The CTS line follows the RTS line.
=RTS
Data Carrier Detect (DCD)
The state of the DCD line depends on the communication address (node
number):
• When the node number is 0, the DCD line is always ON (active).
• When a non-zero node number is used, the DCD becomes ON (active)
when data is detected on the RD line, provided HCD-E1 recognizes its
own address in the data stream.
To simulate DTE operation, the delay between these events can be set by
the user (by means of the DCD_DEL parameter).
Ring Indication (RI)
The RI line is used only with dial-up modems (INT=DTE).
The RI line is normally OFF (inactive), and switches to the ON (active) state
when the modem attached to the HCD-E1 front-panel CONTROL DCE
connector detects an incoming call (see also the DSR Line section).
Data Set Ready (DSR)
• Usually, the DSR line is configured to track the DTR line. In this case, if
the control port interface is DTE, the DSR line will be set to ON for five
seconds when the RI line is ON while the DTR line is OFF.
• If the control port interface is DCE, the DSR line can also be configured
to be continuously ON. However, if the DTR line switches to OFF, the
DSR line will also switch to OFF for 5 seconds.
In addition, HCD-E1 always sets DSR OFF (inactive) for 5 seconds when the
EXIT command is executed, or the disconnect time-out expires.

HCD-E1 Installation & Operation Manual
Chapter 4 - Control from the Supervisory Port
When the AUTOBAUD function is enabled, HCD-E1 can identify the
operating data rate of the terminal by analyzing the timing of three
consecutive Carriage Return + Line Feed characters (generated by pressing
three times the carriage return key). The detected data rate is then used for
the current communication session.
AUTOBAUD
Function
The automatic baud rate identification procedure is performed (or repeated)
whenever three consecutive carriage returns are received after one of the
following events occurs:
• The DTR line has been switched OFF.
• The EXIT command has been executed.
• The idle disconnect time-out expired because no data has been
exchanged with the supervision terminal.
In case one of these events occurred, HCD-E1 assumes that the current
communication session has been terminated.
Note that when SLIP communication is required, the AUTOBAUD function
must be disabled.
4.3 Starting a Supervision Terminal Management
Session
Configure the terminal for the communication parameters used by the
HCD-E1 CONTROL DCE port, select the full-duplex mode, turn the terminal
echo off, and disable any type of flow control. For the initial configuration
session, it is recommended to use the default communication parameters:
9600 bps, one start bit, eight data bits, no parity, one stop bit. Connect the
terminal cable to the CONTROL DCE connector of the HCD-E1. Turn the
control terminal on. You are now ready to start a management session.
Control Terminal
Configuration
If HCD-E1 does not respond (there is no echo or response to any command
entered at the terminal), this may be caused by one of the following:
Preliminary
Settings for
Initial
Configuration
Session
• CONTROL DCE communication parameters are not identical to those of
the terminal
• HCD-E1 is configured to use a non-zero node number
You can cover both possibilities by setting the DB INIT switch to ON. This
will enforce the default communication parameters and the default (0) node
number, and disable the password protection in one action, and you will
then be able to start the communication session. However, HCD-E1 allows a
finer procedure, which lets you preserve your preset configuration. To do so,
follow the procedure below. Remember that all the changes will take place
only after you turn the HCD-E1 off for a short time, and then turn it back on.

1. If you don’t know the node number, go to step 2. If you know the node
number, enter it followed by the command (see General Guidelines and
Principles below). If there is still no response, go to step 3. If you see
asterisks instead of the command you typed, this means that HCD-E1
requires you to enter a password. Press <CR> and type in the node
number followed by the password. If you don’t know the password, set
the PASSWD section of switch S1 to ON, to enforce the default
password ‘HCD’. This action enforces the default (0) node number, and
you can enter the ‘HCD’ password without any node number prefix.
Now, you will receive the HCD-E1 working prompt and be able to start
the session.
2. Set the PASSWD section of S1 to ON, to enforce the default (0) node
number. Enter <CR>. If there is still no response, go to step 3. If the
prompt you see is ‘PASSWORD’, enter ‘HCD’ to see the working
prompt.
3. Set the DEF SP section of S1 to ON. If there is still no response, return
to step 1 or 2, depending on whether you know the node number.
Note that this time password protection is disabled.
After successfully starting the management session, use the command
DEF TERM 'terminal_type'to select the terminal type, if needed.
'terminal_type'stands for one of the following types: VT-52, VT-100,
TV-920, FREEDOM-100, or FREEDOM-220. If your terminal requires control
sequences differing from those used by the terminals listed above, type the
command Fand enter your terminal control sequences.
Initial
Configuration
If the current control codes are not compatible with your terminal and you
cannot enter the desired codes, enter the INIT Fcommand to reset the
codes to 0, and then use the Fcommand to modify the control codes
starting from the known field values.
This section provides instructions for performing time slot configuration
from the supervisory terminal.
Working with
Time Slots
Reassigning All Time Slots between Data Channels/Sublink
If you want to reassign all timeslots from one data channel/sublink to
another data channel/sublink, you must close the data channel/sublink (free
all timeslots assigned to it), and then assign the time slots to another data
channel/sublink.
1. Check the current time slot allocation by entering the DSP TS
command.
2. If the data channel/sublink, which you want to close serves as master or
fallback clock source, you must select a different timing reference first.
Use the DEF SYS command to set temporarily the CLK MASTER to INT
and CLK FBACK to NONE.
3. Deactivate all loopback tests. To do this, use the CLR TST command.

4. To close a data channel, use the DEF CH X command and set the
SPEED parameter to NC.
5. To close the sublink, use the DEF SL command and set the
NUM_OF_TS parameter to NC.
6. To reassign the closed time slots to the sublink, use the DEF SL
command and assign the time slots to the sublink.
7. To reassign the closed time slots to a channel, use the DEF CH X
command and assign the time slots to the channel.
You must assign at least one timeslot to the data channel or sublink, which
you select as master or fallback clock source.
Note
Reconfiguring Individual Time Slots
To reconfigure individual time slots, follow the steps below:
1. Deactivate all loopback tests. To do this, use the CLR TST command.
2. To reassign time slots currently assigned to a data channel, use the
DEF CH X command. To reassign time slots currently assigned to the
sublink, use the DEF SL command. Set each time slot you want to
reassign to NC.
3. To assign closed time slots to a data channel, use the DEF CH X
command. Set each time slot you want to assign to DATA.
4. To assign closed time slots to the sublink, use the DEF SL command. Set
each time slot you want to assign as desired.
Replacing a Time Slot Used for In-band Management
Before selecting a new time slot for the main link in-band management, you
must close the current dedicated time slot.
1. Close the time slot used for the in-band management with the DEF DL
command.
Wait 20 seconds (40 seconds if H-RPT is installed in the HDSL link).
Make sure that the time slot, which you intend to use for the in-band
management is not assigned to a data channel or sublink.
Note
2. Assign the desired time slot to the in-band management, using the DEF
DL command.
4.4 HCD-E1 Control Language
This section presents the HCD-E1 control language syntax, its usage, and set
of commands.
Following are general guidelines you have to be familiar with when working
with HCD-E1 commands:

Chapter 4 - Control from the Supervisory Port
HCD-E1 Installation & Operation Manual
• Commands can be entered only when the HCD-E1 control port working
prompt is displayed. The prompt is HCD>, and it always appears at the
beginning of a new line. The cursor appears to the right of the prompt.
• Commands are case-insensitive, that is, you can type commands in either
lowercase or uppercase letters.
• To correct typing errors, press the BACKSPACE key until the error is
cleared, and then type the correct command.
• Use space as a separator between command fields and/or parameters.
• Commands must end with a carriage return <CR>.
• To cancel the current command, press CTRL-C. You will obtain the
HCD-E1 prompt again.
• If AUTOBAUD is on, start any session by pressing the <CR> key three
times in sequence. This will ensure identification of terminal data rate.
• At the start of a session, when password protection is on, the prompt
HCD-E1 displays is PASSWORD. This means that HCD-E1 is waiting for
the password before continuing. When you start entering the password,
HCD-E1 responds to your input with asterisks. After the correct password
is received, HCD-E1 sends the working prompt.
• After the working prompt is displayed, the user can enter the desired
command. Full duplex communication with the terminal is necessary.
• When HCD-E1 uses a non-zero node number, prefix any command
with: NODE<SP>'node number'<SP>, where 'node number' is the
three-digit node number. No response will occur until the node number
is received and acknowledged by the addressed HCD-E1.
Acknowledgment is indicated by the echoing of the node number part,
i.e. Node<SP>nnn<SP>, where <SP> stands for space.
− At the start of a session, when password protection is on, you must
enter the password after the node number. After the correct password
is received, HCD-E1 sends the working prompt.
− If password protection is off, this step is omitted and the working
prompt appears after the node number conditions are fulfilled.
• The node number is in the range of 1 through 255 (0 indicates that the
selective addressing function is disabled). To set or change the node
number, use the DEF NODE command.
• Command evaluation starts only when you press the <CR> key after the
last page of the data form.

• In case a command is invalid, HCD-E1 does not execute it and displays
the following:
- ‘Bad command or parameter. Type 'h' for help’
if the command syntax is wrong
-
An appropriate error message (see Section 5.5 in Chapter 5) if the
command is not valid in the current system configuration or values
you are trying to set are wrong.
The correct command must then be sent again.
• You can avoid the command execution by pressing CTRL-C. This will
result in the display of the HCD-E1 prompt, and a new command can be
entered. You can also use CTRL-C to stop the automatic repetition of
commands (/R option).
• Use CTRL-A to browse among the last ten commands.
• Use CTRL-D to repeat the last command.
• If an idle disconnect time-out is specified, HCD-E1 automatically
disconnects the ongoing session if no command is received from the
terminal for the specified time-out interval.
The following general types of options are available with some commands
(see details in the command set index, Table 4-1).

Note
Display information on the SNMP agents that are known to the IP router of
the HCD-E1 when SNMP management is enabled.
For SNMP management to be enabled, the following conditions must be
satisfied:
1. The units must have different IP addresses and different MUX_NAME’s.
2. A dedicated slot must be assigned in both units.
Syntax
DSP REM AGENT
Use
• To display the remote agent information, type:
DSP REM AGENT
If not all conditions listed above are fulfilled, HCD-E1 displays the following
message:
CAN NOT FIND REMOTE AGENT

IP ADDRESS
MUX NAME
DISTANCE
The IP address of the remote agent (see the DEF
AGENT command above).
The logical name of the remote agent (see the DEF
NAME command above).
The distance is a metric that indicates the logical
distance (through the management network) to the
remote agent, and is used, among other factors, in the
selection of the optimal route to be used by the
management traffic.

The distance is assigned as follows:
• Each segment between two IP routers is assigned a weight of 6. For
example, when the path to an agent passes two HCD-E1 with their
SNMP management enabled, the distance is 12.
When the management network includes one or more additional distinct
(alternate) paths between two IP routers that connect to the same remote
agent, each such path is assigned a weight of 7 (6 + 1), 8 (6 + 2), etc. per
segment. For example, if the route in the above example has an additional
path in parallel with one segment, the additional route to RAD2 has a
distance of 13; when additional paths are found in parallel with each
segment, the distances will be 13, 14, 15.

4.6 Supervision Terminal Operating Instructions
Before using the supervision terminal make sure the preparations listed in
Section 4-3 have been completed and all the relevant equipment have been
turned on.
When the terminal is used to control a single HCD-E1, always assign node
number 0 to the HCD-E1. Use the following startup sequence to connect to
a HCD-E1 that has been assigned node number 0. We assume that you are
using the AUTO (Autobaud) mode, which is the default one when you
switch on the equipment.

1. Press the <CR> key three times. When HCD-E1 has successfully
identified the data rate of the supervision terminal, it notifies you of the
results of its power-up self-test:
HCD Self Test in Progress...OK, or
HCD Self Test in Progress...Failed
• If the HCD-E1 self test failed, you must repair HCD-E1 before you
can continue using it.
• If HCD-E1 successfully passed the power-up self-test, it sends the
following message:
HCD Supervisory Port On Line. Type ‘H’ For Help
Pressing <CR> activates the HCD-E1 self-test only if it is the first session after
HCD-E1 has been turned on.
Note
If the optional password protection has been activated, HCD-E1
displays the following prompt:
PASSWORD>
2. Type the password (four to eight characters) and then press <CR>.
For each password character typed by you the terminal displays an
asterisk *. The default password is HCD.
3. If the password is accepted, HCD-E1 enters the session, and the
terminal displays:
HCD>
The HCD-E1 front panel display shows:
TERMINAL ON LINE
The front panel controls are disabled as long as HCD-E1 is under remote
control.
To regain the front-panel control at the local site, use the options described
in the section “Ending a Control Session” below.
Note
When one terminal is used to control several HCD-E1 connected via
modems, non-zero node numbers are assigned to each HCD-E1. The node
numbers, in the range of 1 to 255, are assigned during the first session (see
the previous section), by means of the command DEF NODE.
Starting a Session
- Multiple HCD-E1
If you are using a multidrop configuration, do not assign address 0 to any of
the HCD-E1 connected to a given terminal. Make sure the interface type is
set as DTE, and select the appropriate DCD_DEL parameter.

• If the addressed HCD-E1 does not use password protection, it
immediately executes the command.
• If the addressed HCD-E1 is password-protected, it displays a row of
asterisks instead of the command you have typed. After you press
<CR>, it displays the following prompt:
PASSWORD>
3. Type again the node number part and then the password. For example,
for node number 234, type:
NODE<SP>234<SP>'password'<CR>
4. If the password is correct, HCD-E1 displays the working prompt:
HCD>. Otherwise, it displays the password prompt once more:
PASSWORD>
5. Enter your command following the HCD working prompt.
During the control session, you type the desired commands at the terminal
keyboard. You must see the HCD-E1 echo character by character.
Control Session
For a multidrop configuration, always prefix your command with a node
number part, as described above.
If a wrong character appears, backspace to clear the error, and then type
again the correct character.
When you see the correct and complete command in the echo line, press
<CR> to execute the command. HCD-E1 processes the command and
displays the appropriate response.
At the end of the command execution, HCD-E1 displays the current date
and time, and then provides a new prompt for the next command line.
If you changed your mind, and want to abort the command, press CTRL+C.
You will again receive the prompt, so you can enter another command.
Use CTRL+C to stop automatic repetition of commands sent with the /R
option.

If your command is not correct, HCD-E1 does not execute it and displays
the following:
- ‘Bad command or parameter. Type 'H' for help’
if the command syntax is wrong
-
An appropriate error message (see Section 5.5 in Chapter 5) if the
command is not valid in the current system configuration or values
you are trying to set are wrong.
The correct command must then be sent again.
If the terminal screen fills up during the exchange with HCD-E1, HCD-E1
displays the message:
HIT ANY KEY TO CONTINUE...
After pressing any key, the terminal scrolls to the next page.
You can end the control session in one of the following three ways:
Ending a Control
Session
• Disconnect the cable from the HCD-E1 front-panel CONTROL DCE
connector.
• Send the EXIT command from the supervision terminal.
• HCD-E1 automatically returns to front panel control if no commands
are received for a certain period of time (controlled by the LOG_OFF
parameter). You can, however, disable this time-out and thus also this
way of ending the session.

Troubleshooting and
Diagnostics
5.1 General
This chapter describes the HCD-E1 diagnostics functions, which include:
• Status indications and alarms - Section 5.2
• Performance diagnostics - Section 5.3
• Diagnostic loopbacks - Section 5.4
• Configuration error messages - Section 5.5
• Power-up self-test - Section 5.6
• Troubleshooting instructions - Section 5.7.
5.2 Status Indications and Alarms
The status of HCD-E1 is indicated by the ALM, TST, E1 LOS and HDSL LOS
LED indicators located on the front panel. For description of LED indicators
and their functions, refer to Table 3-1 and Section 3.5, Operating
Instructions, in Chapter 3.
Front-Panel LEDs
Alarms
HCD-E1 maintains an alarm buffer, which can store a maximum of
100 alarms. Alarms can be of two types, designated as ON/OFF and ON:
• A message indicating an ON/OFF-type alarm is displayed on the LCD
only when the alarm condition is present, and is automatically stopped
from being displayed when the alarm condition is cleared (if the alarm is
being displayed, it will disappear only when the display is refreshed by
scrolling).
• A message indicating an ON-type alarm still can be displayed on the LCD
even after the event that caused the alarm condition is cleared.
In this manual, we often use the term ON-state alarm. An ON-state alarm is
either an ON-type alarm or an ON/OFF-type alarm when its alarm condition
is still present.

Chapter 5 - Troubleshooting and Diagnostics
HCD-E1 Installation & Operation Manual
When an ON/OFF-type alarm changes its state from ON to OFF, it is not
removed from the alarm buffer. Moreover, a new entry of this alarm is
added to the alarm buffer. This feature enables you to see the alarm history
on the terminal using the DSP ALM command. A typical display looks like
this:
ALARM 01

ON
1998-01-01
1998-01-01

00:00.01
Messages displayed on the LCD and on the control terminal have a similar
syntax. Table 5-1 presents in alphabetical order the alarm messages
displayed on the HCD-E1 LCD and control terminal, and lists the actions
required to correct the alarm condition.
If you have an H-RPT repeater on the HDSL link, HCD-E1 allows you to
monitor and work with the H-RPT alarms via its supervision terminal. The
H-PRT buffer stores a maximum of 100 alarms. The types and states of the
H-RPT alarms and the rules of working with the H-RPT alarm buffer are
exactly the same as for the HCD-E1 alarm buffer. Table 5-2 presents the
H-RPT alarm messages displayed on the HCD-E1 control terminal in order of
their numbers, and lists the actions required to correct the alarm condition.
The H-RPT alarms are not available from the LCD.
H-RPT Alarms
Alarm Relay
HCD-E1 has an alarm relay, which enables you to automatically turn on
alarm indication by properly connecting the relay alarm contacts to your
alarm equipment (see “Connecting the HCD-E1 Alarm Relay Port” in
Chapter 2).
The Alarm Relay has a pair of change-over dry contacts: the Normally-Open
(NO) contacts close in case of an alarm, and the Normally-Close ( NC)
contacts open in case of an alarm. The alarm contacts are floating with
respect to the signal and chassis grounds of HCD-E1.
The following events will activate the alarm relay:
• Loss of power (indicated by the NO contacts)
• Detection of a hardware failure, or any other failure, during the power-
up self-test
• Detection of real-time clock battery failure during the power-up self-test
• Detection of a disruption in the database during the power-up self-test
• Loss of HDSL lines (1 or 2) synchronization
• Signal loss, excessive bit error rate, excessive rate of bipolar violations,
loss of local or remote frame synchronization or reception of AIS on the
E1 sublink.
The corresponding alarms in Table 5-1 are marked with an asterisk (*). The
relay returns automatically to the no-alarm state when none of the alarm
conditions listed above is present.

HCD-E1 Installation & Operation Manual
You can manage the alarm buffer either from the control terminal, or from
the LCD.
Working with
Alarm Buffer
From the Control Terminal
To display the active alarms from the control terminal, type DSP ALM. The
terminal displays up to 100 alarms stored in the buffer, for each alarm listing
its number, its state (ON or OFF), the date and the time when the last
change in its state occurred. To clear the alarms, use the commands CLR
ALM and CLR ALM REM. For more details, see description of the
corresponding command in Section 4.5, HCD-E1 Command Set Description.
From the LCD
You can view the ON-state alarms stored in the alarm buffer, on the front
panel LCD display, and delete the alarm messages from the buffer when no
longer needed. This procedure is explained below.
When the top row shows ALARM BUFFER, the second row displays the
following information:
• During normal operation, the second row shows EMPTY (no alarm
messages).
• If the alarm buffer contains ON-state alarms, the LCD shows SCROLL in
the left-hand field of the second row, and CLEAR in the right-hand field.
To display the alarms, bring the cursor to SCROLL, and then press ENTER:
you can now scroll between the ON-state alarms stored in the alarm buffer.
To interpret the alarm messages displayed in the second row, refer to
Table 5-1.
To correct the reported problem, perform the corrective actions in the given
order, until the problem is resolved.
To clear alarm messages from the HCD-E1 alarm buffer, act as follows:

HCD-E1 Installation & Operation Manual
Chapter 5 - Troubleshooting and Diagnostics
5.3 Performance Diagnostics Data
HCD-E1 has two capabilities for collection of performance statistics: E1 and
HDSL performance monitoring capability.
General
This section first describes the principles and parameters of the E1 and
HDSL performance monitoring and then explains how to display
performance data from the HCD-E1 front panel. For information on
displaying the performance data from the control terminal, see Chapter 4.
This section describes the performance evaluation and monitoring functions
provided by HCD-E1 with respect to the user's traffic (on the E1 link
between the DTE and the user’s port). The functions actually available
depend on the use of the CRC-4 function: whether it is enabled or disabled.
E1 Sublink
Performance
Monitoring
Below are listed performance monitoring parameters with the CRC-4
function enabled and disabled, followed by a summary table (Table 5-2)
listing the displays of all these parameters on the HCD-E1 front panel in the
order of their appearance, accompanied by a short description and ranges
available.
E1 Performance Monitoring with CRC-4 Function Enabled
When the CRC-4 function is enabled, you are able to monitor the
end-to-end data transmission performance. HCD-E1 derives information
about errors from the E1 data payload by performing a cyclic redundancy
check (CRC), and transmits the resulting CRC checksum in addition to the
raw data bits.
The receiving end recalculates the checksum and compares the results with
the received checksum: any difference between the two checksums
indicates that the current data block being evaluated contains bit errors.
When the CRC-4 function is enabled, HCD-E1 stores E1 line statistics for the
E1 port. This permits real-time monitoring of E1 data transmission
performance.
The performance monitoring parameters are listed below:
• Current CRC-4 error events (ERROR CRC)
A CRC-4 error event is any multiframe containing a CRC error and/or
OOF event. The number of CRC events in the current second is collected
in a current CRC error events register.
• Current average CRC-4 errors (AV ERR CRC)
The average number of CRC events per second. The average is updated
every second.
You can display the register contents at any time. When the CRC error events
are displayed on the front-panel LCD, you can reset the register by pressing
ENTER.

HCD-E1 Installation & Operation Manual
• Current errored seconds (CURR ES)
An errored second is any second containing one or more CRC error
events, or one or more OOF events, or one or more controlled slip
events. The data is collected for the current 15-minute interval.
• Current unavailable seconds (CURR UAS)
An unavailable second is any second in which a failed signal state exists.
A failed signal state is declared when 10 consecutive severely errored
seconds (SES) occur, and is cleared after 10 consecutive seconds of data
are processed without a SES.
• Current severely errored seconds (CURR SES)
A SES is a second with 832 or more CRC error events, or one or more
OOF events. The data is collected for the current 15-minute interval.
• Current bursty errored seconds (CURR BES)
A BES is a second with 2 to 831 CRC error events. The data is collected
for the current 15-minute interval.
• Current loss of frame counter (CURR LOFC)
The loss of frame (LOF) counter counts the loss of frame alignment
events. The data is collected for the current 15-minute interval.
• Current slip second counter (CURR CSS)
A CSS is a second with one or more controlled slip events. The data is
collected for the current 15-minute interval.
• Current seconds (CURR SECS)
The number of seconds in the current measurement interval. A
measurement interval has 900 seconds (15 minutes).
This register is called “CURRENT TIMER” on the control terminal.
Note
HCD-E1 also provides support for long-term statistics gathered over the
long-term interval (96 15-minute intervals, i.e., a total of 24 hours) for the E1
port. The additional parameters included in this class are:
• Long-term errored seconds (L.TERM ES)
The total number of ES in the current 24-hour interval.
• Long-term fail seconds (L.TERM UAS)
The total number of UAS in the current 24-hour interval.

Resetting the Performance Data Registers
The registers storing diagnostics data can be reset. To reset a register, bring
the register to display and press ENTER. To ensure that the collected data
remains meaningful and correlated after a specific register is reset, HCD-E1
will automatically perform the following actions.
For E1 Registers:
• When the CRC-4 function is enabled:
− Since the data collected for the current interval and for the current
24-hour interval is correlated, pressing ENTER while any of the
following CURR or L.TERM data items (ES, UAS, SES, BES, LOFC,
CSS, CURR SECS, CUR DEG MIN, LST DEG MIN, and L.TERM INT)
is displayed, clears all the performance diagnostics registers, not only
the one appearing on the display.
− Resetting the ERROR CRC register automatically resets the AV ERR
CRC register, and vice versa: resetting the AV ERR CRC register
automatically resets the ERROR CRC register.
• When the CRC-4 function is disabled, resetting the BPV COUNT register
automatically resets the BPV WORST register, and vice versa: resetting
the BPV WORST register automatically resets the BPV COUNT register.
For HDSL Registers:
When you press ENTER, all the HDSL performance registers that pertain to
the line whose number is displayed in the right-hand field of the top row are
simultaneously reset.
You can display the performance data on the control terminal by means of
the DSP SL PM, DSP R SL PM, DSP HDSL PM, and DSP R HDSL PM
commands, as explained in Chapter 4. By adding the /C switch to the
DSP SL PM and DSP R SL PM commands, you can reset the CRC ERROR
EVENTS and CRC AVG ERR EVENTS registers for the E1 sublink of the
appropriate (local or remote) unit. By adding the /CA switch to the
command, you can reset all the performance diagnostics registers.

LP L LINE
These local loopbacks on the HDSL lines are performed in the HDSL framer,
as shown in Figure 5-1. Test signal is provided either by the equipment
connected to one of the inputs, which must receive its own transmissions
without errors, or by applying the BERT test.
This test fully checks the connections to the equipment connected to the
local E1 sublink and/or data channels, as well as the circuits of the local unit.

2. While this loop is active, HCD-E1 loses HDSL synchronization.
Notes
LP L HRPT
This local loopback on the HDSL repeater is performed as shown in
Figure 5-2. The loopback can be performed only from the HCD-E1 unit
configured as central.
This test fully checks the connections to the equipment connected to the
local E1 sublink and/or data channels of the HCD-E1 unit configured as
central, all the circuits of both HCD-E1 and H-RPT, and the transmission
path connecting the two units.
During the loopback, the remote unit continues to receive data sent from
the central unit.

LP L SL
This local loopback towards the E1 sublink of the local HCD-E1 is performed
by connecting the E1 sublink input signal (input to HCD-E1) to the output of
the sublink from HCD-E1, as shown in Figure 5-3. The test signal is provided
by the equipment connected to the E1 sublink of the local HCD-E1, which
must receive its own transmission without errors while the loopback is
activated.
This test fully checks the connections to the equipment connected to the E1
sublink of the local HCD-E1. During the loopback, the local HCD-E1
continues sending data from the DTE connected to its E1 sublink, over the
HDSL link.
Figure 5-3 LP L SL Loopback
LP R SL
This remote loopback towards the DTE connected to the E1 sublink of the
remote HCD-E1 is performed by connecting the sublink transmit signal
(output from HCD-E1) to the sublink receive path (input from HCD-E1)
within the sublink line interface circuits, as shown in Figure 5-4. The test
signal is provided by the equipment connected to the E1 sublink of the
remote HCD-E1, which must receive its own transmission without errors
while the loopback is activated.
This test checks the connections to the equipment connected to the E1
sublink of the remote HCD-E1, all the circuits of the local and remote
HCD-E1, and the transmission path connecting the two units.

During the loopback, the DTE connected to the E1 sublink of the local
HCD-E1, continues to receive data.
LP R R SL
This remote remote loopback towards the DTE connected to the E1 sublink
of the local HCD-E1 is performed by connecting the transmit signal of the E1
sublink of the remote unit (output from the remote HCD-E1) to the input of
its receive path (input from the remote HCD-E1) within the sublink line
interface circuits, as shown in Figure 5-5. The test signal is provided by the
equipment connected to the E1 sublink of the local HCD-E1, that must
receive its own transmission without errors while the loopback is activated.
Figure 5-5 LOOP R R SL Loopback
This test checks the connections to the equipment connected to the E1
sublink of the local HCD-E1, all the circuits of the remote unit, the functions
of the remote and local units, and the transmission path between them.
During this loopback, the DTE connected to the E1 sublink of the remote
HCD-E1 continues to receive data.
The following loopbacks (LP L CH, LP R CH, LP R R CH and LP INBAND CH)
are not recommended for HCD-E1 channel with Ethernet interface. Although
a channel loopback is not forbidden in principle, it may cause a state of
permanent collision on the LAN (this would prevent other users from using
the LAN as long as the loopback is connected).
Note
LP L CH X
This local loopback on the data channel X of the local HCD-E1 (X can be 1
or 2) is performed by connecting the data channel transmit signal to the
input of the receive path, as shown in Figure 5-6. The test signal is provided
by the DTE connected to this channel of the local HCD-E1, which must
receive its own transmission without errors while the loopback is activated.
During the loopback, this channel of the local HCD-E1 continues sending
the user's data to the link.
This test mainly checks the connections to the local data channel interface.

LP INBAND CH X
The in-band activated channel loopback (see Figure 5-9) is similar to the
channel data remote remote loopback, except for the way it is connected.
This loopback is activated and deactivated by transmitting special sequences
for approximately two seconds, in contrast to the LP R R CH loopback,
where the command arrives with e.o.c.
Figure 5-9 LP INBAND CH 1 Loopback
LP BERT CH X
BER testing (see Figure 5-10) does not represent a loopback in itself; to be
performed, it requires one of the channel or line loopbacks to be already
activated, towards your BERT.
BER testing can be performed on one channel at a time. To perform the test
over the whole link, end-to-end, you may use the LP R R CH loopback on
the same channel; for a local test, use the LP L LINE loopback.

During the test, the local data channel is disconnected, the DSR line is off;
an internal pattern generator connects a user-selected test sequence to the
transmit input of the local data channel interface. To calibrate the system,
you can inject errors at a selectable rate.
The receive output is connected to a pattern evaluator. The evaluator
compares the received and transmitted patterns and detects errors. The test
results are presented as follows:
• On the supervision terminal, detailed full data is displayed, including
information on factors such as the number of seconds during which
HCD-E1 lost frame synchronization (see the DSP BERT command in
Chapter 4).
• On the LCD, the result appears as GOOD (no errors) or BAD (at least
one error has been detected during the BER measurement interval). For
more details, see “Operating BERT from the Front Panel” below.
Before starting the execution of a test, pay attention to the following points:

Appendix C
IR-ETH Interface Module
C.1 General Description
IR-ETH is an interface module for RAD modems, used for converting the
Ethernet (10BaseT or 10Base2) electrical levels to the modem TTL levels. It
also converts the Ethernet protocol to HDLC to enable long-distance
transmission and avoid the Ethernet collision limitation.
IR-ETH includes an internal, self-learning Ethernet bridge, which enables a
high performance link between two Ethernet segments at a low transmission
rate. The low-speed HDLC transmission is sent over the link using the
modem modulation technique, and then converted back to an Ethernet
signal at the remote modem.
Figure C-1 shows a typical application using an Ethernet interface bridge.
Each modem is connected to an Ethernet network via the Ethernet Interface
bridge.

Appendix E
IR-IP Interface Module
E.1 Introduction
IR-IP is a high-performance, miniature IP router based on RAD's unique IP
router chip, the ChipRouter.
Introduction
IR-IP works by taking each Ethernet frame from the LAN and determining
whether the IP packet is destined for the IP net on the Ethernet LAN. If not,
IR-IP forwards the packet to the WAN link. IP packets received from the
WAN link are automatically forwarded to the LAN if the IP net matches.
IR-IP includes hardware filters which handle all filtering operations at wire
speed from both LAN-to-WAN and WAN-to-LAN, without dropping a single
packet. Filtering and forwarding are performed at the maximum rate of
35,000 and 30,000 frames per second (wire speed), respectively. The buffer
can hold 256 frames of maximum size of 1534 bytes and a throughput
latency of one frame.
IR-IP is available with 10BaseT (UTP) interface and is fully
IEEE 802.3/Ethernet v2 compliant. The IR-IP interface can also operate in full
duplex Ethernet applications.
HCD-E1 equipped with IR-IP interface module can be used as a Frame
Relay Access Device (FRAD) with an integral IP router. RFC 1490 is
supported for a single DLCI on the WAN link. Detection of the DLCI and
the maintenance protocol is performed automatically. This allows the IR-IP
to be used as the termination unit of IP services over Frame Relay at the
customer premises, opposite a Frame Relay switch in the backbone.
Alternatively, Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) can be run on the WAN link with
automatic negotiation on power-up, as well as support for PAP and CHAP
authentication. With this feature, IR-IP can operate opposite any PPP
compliant access server or backbone router.
IR-IP supports HDLC, which is especially important for broadcast and
multicast applications where bandwidth overhead is critical.
IR-IP supports IP multicast at wire speed, making it suitable for any multicast
environment including high speed downstream environments, such as
satellite and xDSL. Users on the LAN who register with IR-IP for an IP
multicast group using the IGMP protocol filter IP multicast packets at wire
speed.
Management and advanced configuration are performed via Telnet.

E.4 IR-IP Management Subsystem, General
The IR-IP interface module management subsystem supports the following
functions:
Introduction
• Preliminary configuration
• Configuration of management access parameters
• Advanced configuration of IR-IP parameters
• Collection and display of statistical performance data
• Maintenance functions, which include:
ꢀ Software downloading
ꢀ Resetting of various subsystems
ꢀ Display of error log
ꢀ Ping utility, for checking IP connectivity.
The management subsystem of the IR-IP interface module is a separate,
independent entity, and therefore it cannot be managed through the
HCD-E1 management subsystem.
The communication with the IR-IP management subsystem is made through
the local LAN interface connector of the IR-IP module, designated
10BASE-T, using the Telnet protocol. Passwords can be used to prevent
unauthorized access.
The IR-IP interface module must be configured in accordance with the
specific requirements of the user’s application before it can be used in the
user’s network. As a result, it is not possible to supply default parameters to
enable IR-IP to start service without any preliminary configuration.
Accessing the
IR-IP
Management
Subsystem
Therefore, to enable the user to establish Telnet communication and
configure IR-IP, IR-IP is delivered with a factory-default set of parameters.
The factory-default parameters are automatically used:
• Before the IP router is configured by the user, e.g., when a new HCD-E1
with IR-IP interface module is put into operation
• After the user’s configuration parameters have been erased.

HCD-E1 Installation & Operation Manual
Appendix E - IR-IP Interface Module
When the factory-default parameters are used, the ERR indicator located on
the HCD-E1 rear panel, near the IR-IP Ethernet interface connector flashes
rapidly (about three times per second). The flashing of the ERR indicator also
serves as a warning to the user that the IR-IP WAN interface does not send,
nor does it receive packets, and therefore IR-IP can be accessed only from
the LAN.
After configuring IR-IP, it starts normal operation and routes the traffic in
accordance with the user-selected configuration parameters.
To change the parameters of an already-configured IR-IP, establish
communication from a Telnet host using the assigned IP address.
The factory-default IP communication parameters of the interface module
are:
Default IP
Communication
Parameters
• The default IP address of the IR-IP Ethernet port is 192.168.205.1, and
the default IP subnet mask is 255.255.255.252.
• The port will accept IP communication only from the IP address
192.168.205.2. Therefore, as long as the factory defaults are in effect,
you must assign this address to the Telnet host used to configure IR-IP.
Using the IP learning mechanism, as explained below can change the
default parameters.
E.5 Performing Preliminary Configuration
The software necessary for performing all the management and
configuration functions is stored in the IR-IP interface module, and
therefore you only need a regular Telnet host to perform all the activities
described in this appendix.
General
A Telnet host is any computer, e.g., an IBM PC or compatible that fulfills the
following minimum requirements:
• A standard 10BaseT Ethernet interface
• A TCP/IP protocol stack, and therefore is capable of supporting IP
communication through the Ethernet interface
• Telnet client software
• A ping utility.
To perform the preliminary configuration procedure:
Outline of
Preliminary
Configuration
1. Connect the Telnet host to the IR-IP interface module.
2. Configure the Telnet host to enable communication with the IR-IP
interface module using the default IP parameters.
Performing Preliminary Configuration

Appendix E - IR-IP Interface Module
HCD-E1 Installation & Operation Manual
3. Establish communication with IR-IP and assign the prescribed IP
address to its LAN interface.
4. Establish again communication with IR-IP and continue the preliminary
configuration in accordance with the Quick Setup Menu section below.
Before starting the management and configuration activities, it is necessary
to establish IP communication between your Telnet host and the IR-IP
interface module. For this purpose, it is necessary to provide a
communication path.
Connecting the
Telnet Host
Because of the method used to assign an IP address to IR-IP Ethernet port, it
is recommended to connect the Telnet host directly to the IP router
10BASE-T connector. This is made by connecting an Ethernet cross cable
between the Ethernet connector of the Telnet host and the IP router
connector.
However, you may also connect through a common LAN: in this case,
connect your Telnet host and IR-IP to Ethernet hub ports using straight
cables.
You can use the IP learning mechanism to configure the IP communication
parameters of the IR-IP LAN interface. In this case, skip to the Assigning the
Router LAN Interface Address section below.
Preliminary Telnet
Host
Configuration
If you prefer to use the factory-default parameters to establish IP
communication between your Telnet host and IR-IP, configure the Telnet
host as follows:
1. Temporarily configure the host IP address as 192.168.205.2.
2. The initial destination IP address to be used by the host is
192.168.205.1.
The first step in the preliminary configuration process is to assign the desired
IP address to the LAN interface of the IR-IP interface module.
Note
After an IP address is assigned and saved, you must change the destination IP
address of the Telnet host to the new address, otherwise it is not possible to
continue the configuration process. At the same time, you can also change
the temporary IP address assigned to the host (192.168.205.2) back to its
permanent address.
The IP address of the IR-IP LAN interface must be configured as part of the
preliminary configuration process. To simplify this process, IR-IP includes a
simple and convenient IP address learning mechanism.
Assigning the
Router LAN
Interface Address
The IP address can be configured and changed at any time, even after the
complete IR-IP configuration process has been performed, because it does
not affect other configuration parameters. Moreover, the IP subnet mask is
automatically adapted to the new IP address.

HCD-E1 Installation & Operation Manual
Appendix E - IR-IP Interface Module
IP Learning Mechanism
To simplify the configuration process, IR-IP has a special mechanism for
configuring the IP address of its LAN interface. Setting section 1, called IP
address learning, of the IR-IP DIP switch (Figure E-3) to ON enables this
mechanism.
The IP learning mechanism enables IR-IP to learn its LAN interface IP
address by receiving frames sent by a ping utility to the prescribed LAN IP
address.
To use the IP learning mechanism, you do not need to know the current
address of IR-IP LAN interface, but only the prescribed IP address.
Note
The IP address is actually retrieved from the ARP frames sent during pinging
to locate the ping destination, not from the ping frames.
To ensure that the process is correctly performed, it is recommended to
check the contents of the ARP table before starting the ping utility, to make
sure that it does not contain the address to be assigned to the IP router LAN
interface.
To view and edit the ARP table contents:
If the Telnet host you are using runs under Microsoft Inc. Windows™ 95, 98
or NT, use the following procedure to view and edit the ARP table contents:
1. Display the table using the arp -acommand.
2. If the table includes the intended IP address, remove it from the table
using the arp -dcommand.
If for some reason the IP learning process does not succeed, before
repeating it make sure to remove the IP address from the table.
Assigning a LAN IP Address to a New IR-IP
The following procedure enables you to configure the LAN IP address of a
new IR-IP router, i.e., a router using the default parameters (see the
Accessing the IR-IP Management Subsystem section above).
If HCD-E1 is already operating, skip Step 2 in the following procedure.
To configure the IP router LAN address:
1. Make sure the preparations described above have been completed,
including the configuration of the ping utility.
2. Turn HCD-E1 on and monitor the IP router indicators:
ꢀ The INT indicator turns on
ꢀ The ERR indicator lights steadily for approx. 15 seconds, and then
starts flashing at a rapid rate (about three times per second).
If the ERR indicator turns off, skip to the What to Do If ... section below.
3. Set section 1 of IR-IP DIP switch to ON.
The ERR indicator starts flashing faster (approximately four times a
second).
Performing Preliminary Configuration
E-7

Appendix E - IR-IP Interface Module
HCD-E1 Installation & Operation Manual
4. Send a ping to the new address to be used by IR-IP. A confirmation
should be received after the third ping: after the confirmation, the
flashing will slow down to approximately twice a second.
If your host does not begin to receive ping replies after three
unsuccessful attempts, skip to the What to Do If ... section below.
5. Return section 1 of the IR-IP DIP switch to the OFF position.
The ERR indicator must turn off.
At this stage, the communication with IR-IP router is lost, because its IP
address has been changed. Therefore, you must reconfigure the destination
IP address of the Telnet host. If you wish, you may also change the
temporary IP address assigned to the host (192.168.205.2) back to its
permanent address.
After changing the destination IP address of the Telnet host, it is
recommended to turn HCD-E1 off for a few seconds and then back on,
before continuing the configuration of the IP router in accordance with the
Quick Setup Menu section below. At this time, in Step 2 the ERR indicator
turns off after the 15-second interval.
Changing the LAN IP Address of a Configured IR-IP
The LAN IP address of an already-configured IR-IP can be changed while it
operates, this means it is not necessary to turn HCD-E1 off before starting
the configuration procedure. Note however that the IP traffic flow through
IR-IP will be disrupted until the other stations in the IP network learn the
new address.
To change the LAN IP address of an already-configured IR-IP, use the
procedure described above for a new IR-IP with the following differences:
1. Configure the destination address of the ping utility to the new LAN
interface IP address. It is not necessary to change the Telnet host source
address.
2. When ready, set section 1 of the IR-IP DIP switch to ON.
The ERR indicator starts flashing faster (approximately four times a
second).
3. Perform Steps 4, 5 of the procedure used for a new IR-IP.
What to Do If ...
After HCD-E1 is turned on, the INT indicator does not light
The IR-IP interface module does not receive power from the HCD-E1 power
supply. Service is required.
After HCD-E1 is turned on, the ERR indicator does not light
IR-IP is faulty and must be replaced.

the Erasing User’s Configuration section below.
No ping replies from IR-IP
If your host does not begin to receive ping replies after three unsuccessful
attempts, check the physical connection path between the Telnet host
Ethernet interface and the IR-IP 10BASE-T connector.
The IP learning process is not successful
Check that the prescribed IP address does not appear in the ARP table.
E.6 IR-IP Management Utility
The IR-IP interface module is managed via a simple, menu-driven utility
that uses a basic terminal user interface. A typical screen is shown in
Figure E-4.
General
Operating
Procedures
As seen in Figure E-4, each screen has a header that identifies the device
being configured and its logical name, assigned by the user, followed by the
running software revision and date. The bottom line of the screen displays
prompts that guide you in the execution of the various activities.
Use the following general procedures to perform the desired activity:
• To change a parameter or to select a menu item, type the corresponding
line number.
• For a parameter, which has a discrete set of values, the parameter values
are enclosed in brackets [ ]. To select a new value, press the spacebar to
scroll among the available values until the desired value is displayed, and
then press <Enter> to select the displayed value.
• To enter a value which requires free text entry, type in the desired string
and then press <Enter>. Use backspace to erase the current string.
• After all the parameters have been selected, a prompt appears,
requesting that you confirm the changes.
For proper display of the screens, you must:

Operation without Default Gateway
Default Gateway
The IP interface module is intended to enable the extension of LANs
through the HCD-E1 link. Therefore, its default routing operation is different
from the default routing operation of standard IP routers:
• IR-IP forwards packets with destinations not located on the local LAN
through the WAN interface
• Packets received from the WAN interface and destined to hosts located
on the local LAN are forwarded to the LAN; other packets are discarded.
The default operation is used when the Default Gateway field is blank.
Operation with Default Gateway
You can instruct IR-IP to send packets with destinations not located on the
local LAN to a specific router, which is called the default gateway. The
default gateway must be connected to the local LAN.
To use this option, enter the IP address of another router attached to the
local LAN in the Default Gateway field.
It is very important to obtain the correct parameters from the system
administrator or ISP. The most common problem when establishing an IP
connection is incorrect configuration of IP parameters and default gateway.
Do not try to guess these parameters.
Note
Selecting YES for this parameter forces IR-IP router card to use the WAN

HCD-E1 Installation & Operation Manual
E.13 Erasing User’s Configuration
The user-defined configuration parameters are stored in the IP router card
flash memory. After the user-defined configuration parameters are erased,
the IP router card automatically loads the factory-default parameters .
You may want to erase the current configuration parameters:
1. Before IR-IP is prepared for operation in a new application.
2. When you cannot configure IR-IP because its current LAN-interface IP
address and/or the Telnet password, are not known.
To erase the user’s configuration:
1. Turn HCD-E1 off.
2. Set all the four sections of the IR-IP DIP switch to ON.
3. Turn HCD-E1 on and monitor the ERR indicator: it must turn on and
light steadily.
4. While the ERR indicator is lit (within 15 seconds), set sections 1 and 2
of the DIP switch to OFF.
The IP router configuration is erased.
If you do not set sections 1 and 2 to OFF within 15 seconds of power-up, the
IP router card ignores the setting of all the four sections to ON and starts
normal operation. In this case, it is recommended to turn HCD-E1 off and
then back on.
Note
To abort the whole operation, turn HCD-E1 off, return all the four-switch
section to the desired positions, and then turn HCD-E1 on again.
5. Turn HCD-E1 off, and the return all the four sections of the DIP switch
to the desired positions.
E.14 Erasing IR-IP Software
You may erase the IR-IP application software, without erasing the
user-defined parameters.
After the application software is erased, IR-IP starts its TFTP server
application, and waits for the downloading of software by a TFTP client
connected to its LAN interface. The procedure to be used to download the
application software in this case is also described below.
You may want to erase the application software if the downloading of new
software using the Device Control menu (see Figure E-16) fails, and the IP
router card does not function properly.

2. Set all the four sections of IR-IP DIP switch to ON.
3. Turn HCD-E1 on and monitor the IR-IP ERR indicator: it must turn on
and light steadily.
4. While the ERR indicator is lit (within 15 seconds), set sections 3 and 4
of the IR-IP DIP switch to OFF.
The IP router application software is erased.
If you do not set sections 3 and 4 to OFF within 15 sec of power-up, IR-IP
ignores the setting of all the four sections to ON and starts normal operation.
In this case, it is recommended to turn HCD-E1 off and then back on.
Note
Alternately, to abort the whole operation, turn HCD-E1 off, return all the four
switches to the desired positions, and then turn HCD-E1 on again.
5. Turn HCD-E1 off, and the return all the four sections of the DIP switch
to the desired positions.
After erasing the application software, you can download new software
from any computer that can serve as a TFTP client.
Downloading
New Software
To enable the downloading, IR-IP automatically activates its TFTP server
application with the following factory-default IP parameters:
• IP address:192.168.205.1
• Subnet mask: 255.255.255.252.
Connect the computer serving as a TFTP client to the IR-IP 10BASE-T
connector in the way as a Telnet host used for preliminary configuration (see
the Performing Preliminary Configuration section). The computer IP
parameters must be configured as follows:
• IP address 192.168.205.2
• Subnet mask255.255.255.252
• Default gateway 192.168.205.1
To download new software:
1. If necessary, turn HCD-E1 off.
2. Set all the four sections of the IR-IP DIP switch to OFF.
3. Turn HCD-E1 on and monitor the ERR indicator: it must start flashing.
4. Connect the computer to the IP router LAN interface and configure its
IP parameters as explained above.
5. Run a standard TFTP client application on the Telnet host, and
download the appropriate software file.
If the download is successful, IR-IP starts using the new software.
If the downloading fails, repeat the download process.
