The ANALOG/PCM parameter will be set to:
• 1 –pcm int. clk: 1.544 Mbps clocking will originate with the AM8a from the TX
jack to the equipment under test (Figure A–5).
• 2 –<pcm loop clk>: clocking from the equipment under test will control the
AM8a clocking via the RX jack.
NOTE: With either "rpt 1 to 2" or "rpt2 to 1" drop and insert tests, the signal
with the clocking data must come into the PCM1 RX jack. Also refer
to CAUTION concerning order of jack connections.
