Clocking.HBus.FallBackClockSource

Syntax

Clocking.HBus.FallBackClockSource = clock_source

Note: For more information about setting up CT bus clocking, and about the rules and restrictions that apply to setting up clocking with CG 6000C boards, refer to Section 3.5.

Access

Read/Write

Type

String

Default

OSC

Allowed Values

OSC | A_CLOCK | B_CLOCK | NETREF | NETREF2

Example

Clocking.HBus.FallBackClockSource = OSC

Description

Specifies the alternate timing reference to use when the first timing reference does not function properly.
Value

Description

OSC

Causes the board to drive the T1 or E1 line transmit clock using the on-board oscillator.

This setting should only be used when the board's T1 or E1 connection is isolated from the telephone network. This would apply, for example, if you use a T1 or E1 connection as a link between the two computers, or if you use one board to simulate network traffic to another.

The on-board oscillator is accurate to 32 ppm (parts per million) and meets the requirements for a Stratum 4E clock.

A_CLOCK

Specifies to use CT_C8_A and CT_FRAME_A timing signals bus as the board's fallback timing reference.

B_CLOCK

Specifies to use the NETREF2CT_C8_B and CT_FRAME_B timing signals as the board's fallback timing reference.

NETREF

Specifies to use NETREF as the board's fallback timing reference. The NETREF reference source is set with Clocking.HBus.NetRefSource (the source may be a trunk on another board).

NETREF2

Specifies to use NETREF2 as the board's fallback timing reference. The NetRef2 reference source is set with Clocking.HBus.NetRef2Source (the source may be a trunk on another board).

Network

Specifies that the board uses a digital trunk as the board's fallback timing reference (this trunk is specified with the Clocking.HBus.ClockSourceNetwork keyword).

Note: CG 6000C boards operating in slave mode cannot fallback to Network 1.

Valid entries include:

When his keyword is set to NETWORK, you must also specify the fallback network timing reference source with the Clocking.HBus.FallBackNetwork keyword.

If the Clocking.HBus.AutoFallBack keyword is set to NO, this keyword is ignored.
