If not, you need to set your timing to 0 here so the TE410P card will provide timing. Also, as a precaution, It is helpful to power cycle the machine when you change timing. -- Steven Critchfield <critch@basesys.com>
Hi, Does anyone have Carrier Access Corporation (CAC) Access Bank I Manual ? Could you please email it to me off list ?

Carrier Access generally have all of their manuals available for download. You just have to request a free login. they also provide excellent dialin support - also free. If your framing LED is blinking I would double check that both ends of your span are set for ESF. zttool is the tool for working on the cards.

Hi, The asterisk configuration and the channel bank configuration are both set to esf and b8zs. Howerver I am still getting the framing Error "Red and blinking". zttool shows there are no alarms. According to the manual, Framing Error (Red and Blinking )means "Network T1 is out of frame (received signal cannot be framed to ESF or D5 as configured by T1 Option switch 4)" I tried with both DIP switch on and off, but no help. Any ideas ? Is my card or channel bank bad ? On Thursday 17 March 2005 19:12, Jerry wrote:> Carrier Access generally have all of their manuals available for > download.

More likely your CAC ABI is set up to run in TR08 mode which is incompatible with standard T1 framing. Check the LIU board (the Line Interface Board -- as opposed to the FXO or FXS cards) and look at the PROM. It usually will be marked TR08. If that is the case you will need to order a D4/ESF upgrade kit. If you have a 1.x revision TR08 chip, you will need P/N 750-0018. If you have a 3.x revision TR08 chip, you will need P/N 750-0019.

Depending on configuration you may have the DIP switches disabled and changing them will do no good. Connect to the CAC and ask it for the T1 configuration to verify what it really is. Also make sure you rerun ztcfg after any changes to zaptel.conf. What does zttool tell you?
