TL1 Overview
TL1 Response Format
Normal Response
For each TL1 command described in this chapter there is a normal response, an
in-process response, or an error response. The TimeProvider response is always
upper-case. The format of a normal response is:
<cr><lf><lf>
^^^sid^date^time<cr><lf>
M ^ctag^COMPLD<cr><lf>
;
The time and date is in the Telcordia GR-833 format. A sample normal response is:
TIMEPROVIDER 03-08-28 11:23:54
M 1 COMPLD
;
In-Process Response
The TimeProvider sends an in-process response only if it cannot respond to the
command within two seconds. The response terminates with a less-than character
(<) with no semicolon until after the TimeProvider sends the requested output
response message. The format of the in-process message is:
<cr><lf><lf>
^^^sid^date^time<cr><lf>
IP^ctag<cr><lf>
<
A sample in-process response is:
TIMEPROVIDER 03-08-28 11:24:15
IP^2
<
Error Response
If you mis-type a command or issue an invalid command, the TimeProvider sends
an error message. The format of the error response is:
<cr><lf><lf>
^^^sid^date^time<cr><lf>
M ^ctag^DENY<cr><lf>
^^^<errcde><cr><lf>
