Configuring Modes for Dial Backup

The AM2000 display for configuring the T1 Dial Backup Option
operation is shown in Figure 6.

Figure 6

Configuration Screen for Dial Backup Mode

The Port 1 Backup/Restore Mode line selection allows you to
select dial backup mode. (Port 2 is always the backup port.)
Pressing F8 steps through the available modes as follows:

AUTOMATIC/AUTOMATIC

Port 1 is connected to port 2 upon one of the following
conditions:

1)

Abnormal Station Code (ASC) is detected
within the channel data.

2)

Loss of Frame (LOF) occurs on the T1 Signal.

3)

The handshake lead Carrier Detect (CD) on the
Port 2 interface goes high.

Once the failed condition clears, port 1 drops the backup
line and resume normal operation over the T1 line.

AUTOMATIC/MANUAL

Similar to AUTOMATIC/AUTOMATIC mode. Port 1
connects to port 2 upon any of the above conditions.
However, it does not switch back when the condition clears.
You must switch it back manually from the online Test
Activity menu
by selecting the Deactivate backup
connection
menu option. (See Figure 5-2.)
