Description | The Iteration Register needs to be programmed in SRM when
DSO drop loop option is selected in bertDeviceToLoop. The
value to be programmed there is minus one of this object value,
since the register is 0 based. DSP-OP devices can be cross
connected in the centeral office. By this, the user has
capablitiy to put any of the devices in the chain in loopback
mode. This is done by repeating the latching activation
code in a specific manner. The binary number in the
iterataion register determines how many times the first portion
of a latching loop activation code needs to be repeated as per
user request and according to the Bellcore spec. A value of 0
results in no iteration and will cause the very first device in
chain to go into loop back. A value of 1 will result into one
iteration and will cause the second device to go into loopback
and so on. The range of this count is 1 to 32, and it would
translate to a range of 0 to 31 for the iteration
register. |
