Circuit Name

In the Add Circuit Definition screen, type in the circuit name. The name
can be either the circuit number or a brief description of the circuit itself.
The choice is up to you, so long as the name you select does not exceed
twenty alphanumeric characters.

From DS1 Point

The next option is the

From DS1 Point

entry, which is used to

define a circuit element. This must include the node name exactly as it is
spelled in the node definition, and it must also must include any other
information needed to define a single circuit element. Otherwise, an error
message appears indicating a non-existent node or lack of sufficient
parameters. The node name is sufficient to define a single-line CS
circuit element.

All multiline CSUs, except a node identified as an AS2000, ConnecT1
Plus, or NC/E, require a single parameter after the node name to define
the circuit element.

The AS2000 and NC/E require two additional parameters after the node
name. The first parameter defines the 551VST MLS Shelf (1 to 5), and
the second defines the 4016-R CSU (from 1 to 10) within each shelf.

The other parameters needed to define individual circuit elements in
multiline CSUs are surrounded by square brackets: [c] for SIM, 551VST
ML List 1 and 551VST ML List 2 nodes, and [s,c] for AS2000,
ConnecT1 Plus, or NC/E nodes, where c = slot number in the multiline
shelf and where s = shelf number accessed through an AS2000,
ConnecT1 Plus, or NC/E node.

When entering circuit element parameters, you are not required to enter
the brackets. You can use a comma between the node name and the first
parameter instead; if so, when you press the

key to accept the

parameters, the system automatically encloses them within brackets.
Notice that twenty-two (22) is the maximum number of characters
allowed for defining a circuit element with its parent node.

Enter the

when entering the

From DS1 Point

option described above.
