Table 19 displays bits 5-8 of a K1 byte and K2 Bits 1-4 and the channel number code assignments.
K2 Byte
The K2 byte is used to indicate the bridging actions performed at the line-terminating equipment
(LTE), the provisioned architecture and mode of operation.
The bit assignment for the K2 byte is listed in Table 20.

Channel and Notes
0 Null channel.
SD and SF requests apply to conditions detected on the protection line.
For 1+1 systems, Forced and Request Switch requests apply to the
protection line.
Only code 0 is used with Lockout of Protection request.
