Creating a template
This section describes how to create a global configuration template. The Patton Model 1095 enables the
Model 1001MC system administrator to configure the units for a wide variety of applications. Due to the
many different applications that are supported, care must be taken when setting the configuration of your
modems. There are several illegal combinations of variables that could cause problems with the modems if
implemented incorrectly. Be sure to read the following information before creating a template:
•
Configuration rules—Things to keep in mind when creating a template (see section
“Configuration rules”
on page 117)
•
Notes on clock mode settings (see section
“Notes on clock mode settings”
on page 118)
•
Notes on framing mode settings (see section
“Notes on framing mode settings”
on page 118)
•
Illegal configuration messages (see section
“Illegal configuration messages”
on page 118)
After reviewing the rules and notes, go to section
“Procedure for creating a template”
on page 119 to learn how
to create a template.
Configuration rules
Keep in mind the following when creating a template:
•
If you have an IM2RC/K G.703/G.704 Rear Card installed with a 1095RC in your rack, the unit
must
have the Local Clock Mode set to
external
and the Framing Mode set to
slotted
.
•
If you have an IM1/K G.703/G.704 Quick Connect Module installed with your 1095 at the remote site,
the units
must
have the Clock Mode set to
external-external
and the Framing Mode for both the local and
remote units
must
be set to
slotted
.
•
If you have any other interface connected to your 1095RC or your 1095 modems, the Framing Mode
must
be set to
normal
.
•
The system administrator should only set the Clock Mode to
external-external(4)
if there is an IM2RC/K
installed in the 1095RC at the rack and an IM1/K installed in the 1095 standalone unit at the remote site.
•
When setting a unit for the external clock mode, the unit
must
have an external clock source in order to make
a link. When using either an IM2RC/K or an IM1/K, the
K
module will always provide the external clock for
the unit, so it is not necessary to have a G.703/G.704 link available. When using any other type of serial inter-
face, make sure that an external clock is provided by the DTE equipment or the modems will not link.
