3.13.2 Report
For E1 and T1 type plug-in cards, Loop-V 4200 has three sets of performance registers. These are line, user,
and far-end. The line performance register tracks the line receiver performance status. The user
performance register tracks the line receiver as well, but user may clear at any time. The far-end
performance register tracks the far-end Loop-V 4200 receiver status. The performance parameters are listed
in Table 3-3 and 3-4. User performance register have two additional parameters. One is BPV register to
count bipolar violation in both D4 and ESF modes. The other is ESF to track framing error and CRC error in
ESF frame format mode only, or CSS (controlled slip second) for E1.
Each performance parameter has ninety six sets of registers to record 24 hours history in 15 minute interval.
