. RIV Page
A. Introduction
A.1 Scope
This test instruction covers the FOX 515/512 family of PDH/SDH multiplexers. Testing instructions
are common for the whole product family.
A.2.1.1 Identification
As all units with optical interfaces comply with the requirements for a CLASS 1 LASER PRODUCT,
EN60825 has no requirement for warning labels to be displayed on this equipment.
Fore more powerful lasers, both the laser radiation and a warning label are required to be displayed
on the equipment.
The following yellow explanatory label may be fixed to the equipment to define the laser
classification:
CAUTION
Optical connectors
Clean all optical connectors by an approved method before making any
optical connection.
When making an optical connection, do not rotate the optical connector
unnecessarily.
When not connected, fit all optical plugs and couplings with captive caps.
CAUTION
Damage to optical fibres
When dressing fibres, take care not to exceed the minimum bend radius
(typically 35 mm) and do not overtighten tyraps used for dressing as damage
may result.
WARNING
Danger from glass chips
If there is any suspicion of a glass chip in the eye, seek medical attention at
once.
WARNING
Optical safety - automatic laser shutdown (ALS) mechanism
The optical units contain link options for disabling the automatic laser
shutdown mechanism for test purposes. In normal operation, ensure that the
laser shutdown mechanism is enabled.
WARNING
Energy hazard
The 48 V d.c. supply or any voltage converter can deliver high currents.
Thr DC supply can deliver high currents. Remove all rings, watches and other
metal jewellery before removing cover. Do not bridge connections with tools,
etc.
WARNING
Risk of personal injury
Cabinets or equipments, which are not secured, may tip forwards when
Doc. no. RIV Page
handled. Do not open the hinged frame or racks without precautions. Due to
the weight of the subrack, the mounting of the subrack in the rack requires
two installers for safe working.

DUT Device under test
• Build up the FOX 515/512 network according to the project documentation. Network islands may be tested
individually. If there is no remote station available for an optical interconnection, a local loop must be done.
• Inspect the grounding connections (chassis to cabinet frame)
• Check the external power supply polarity (-48 V toward ground)
• For all FOX515/512 NEs, make sure the software required by the configuration has been delivered to the
control unit
• Make sure that for all NE involved in the equipment test, the corresponding configuration has been
downloaded to the control unit with UCST. For the setup of the PC and UCST please refer to the FOX 512 /
512 User’s Manual.
In the equipment test the NE’s are connected to each other and tested as an entire network wherever possible.
Network islands are built up and tested separately.
For AF-channels, level measurements are taken and in the case of telephony channels, the signaling function
is checked.
As far as possible the test signals are looped back at the remote end of the communication channel so that the
measurement can be carried out in both directions at the same time. With 2-wire operation end-to-end
measurements have to be done. Channel verification by means of a remote loop initiated by UCST is only
permitted if a passive loop-back on the interface is not possible.
The Cross-Connect operation is checked with the end to end communication channel tests. For electrical transit
connections at the 2 Mbit/s level, the signal is checked at, or respectively fed into, the associated time slot.
The Cross-Connect-function for data channels that leave the system over a 2 Mbit/s port is checked by carrying
out a frame analysis of the departing / arriving 2 Mbit/s signals.
Minor configuration changes may be made during the equipment test. The test report respectively the
test certificate is written in English.
B .General
It may be necessary to feed a FOX 515/512 equipment with a supplementary, external power supply unit (e.g.
AC mains supply or galvanically isolated supply)
Proper operation of the primary and the external supply units must be checked.

C.4.2 Alarm
Create urgent (UA) and non-urgent (NA) alarm conditions.
For NEs configured with a redundant control unit, the following checks have to be performed:
• Establish the connection to the NE with the corresponding configuration file loaded in UCST.
• Select the control unit status/maintenance mask in UCST and click on the ‘Update Redundant COBUx’
button if Slave Control Unit database is not synchronized to the Master Control Unit database.
• Click on the ‘Switch Master <-> Slave’ button
• After the switchover check the redundant COBUx status and the alarms list.
• Click on the ‘Switch Master <-> Slave’ button again.
• After the switchover check the redundant COBUx status and the alarms list.
D. Transmission Modules
D.1 General
The correct operation of the transmission channels is checked with the access interfaces. Therefore,
for the optical transmission modules only functional checks are performed.
test report.
D.2.1.1 General
If the port is used as a tributary interface the communication channel check can be made at 2 Mbit/s level for
through connections or for individual 64 kbit/s channels: e.g. 2 Mbit/s termination of a PAX or through
connection to a non-FOX 515/512/FOX-U link. Test results are mentioned in the channel list which is part of the
test report.
Provisionally enabled 2 Mbit/s port (for later extension of a link) also have to be checked.
D.2.2.1 General
According to D.2.1.1 page 14
D.3.1.1 Configuration
Note the configuration of the local port and information of the remote station if available.
E. Tributary Modules
General
The operation check has only to be carried out on enabled subunits according to the project documentation.
• Connect the inputs SZ21/SZ22 (M/M') of the signaling channel at the far end to GND
• Check the outputs SZ11/SZ12 (E/E') at the DUT.
Instead of performing the simple end to end test of the signaling channels, dedicated signaling test equipment
may be used. It is allowed to carry out a signaling function test by establishing a loop at the remote interface
end, as in the case of data or protection channels.
Appropriate test equipment can be used to perform this operation check instead of the telephone exchange and
the subscriber set.
Appropriate test equipment can be used to perform this operation check instead of the telephone exchange and
the subscriber set.
Remark: If the test set and the NE are not synchronized from the same clock source
(plesiochronous operation), an octet slip will occur every 5...10 s. This is acceptable
and does not constitute a fault.
for each enabled subunit. With asynchronous data channels take care of the right data format.
E.2.3 LAWA 4
Remark: For interfaces configured as IEEE C37.94, the Output Power shall be measured using
the specific Sunrise MTT measuring equipment.
Remark: For interfaces configured as IEEE C37.94, the Receive Level shall be measured
using the remote equipment or the specific Sunrise MTT measuring equipment.
Teleprotection
If according to the project documentation any trip application includes ‘Command Alarm Signals’ or ’Command
Acknowledge Signals’ that are configured to an auxiliary relay, command or binary signal output, then the
correct operation of these signals has to be checked, too.
• Connect one Protection Signal Simulator to every TEBIT involved in the application that is checked
• Connect one Binary Signal Simulator to every TEBIT that has ‘Command Alarm Signals’ or ’Command
Acknowledge Signals’ configured to a binary signal output
• Set the TEBIT parameter ‘Nominal Input Voltage’ in the ‘Teleprotection Commands: Input Settings’ to 24 V
for every command involved.
• Set and reset the commands on the Protection Signal Simulator for every protection application and observe
the reaction on the other Protection Signal Simulators involved.
Important: When checking the operation of protection applications that have the ‘Cmd Duration
Monitoring’ parameter enabled in the ‘Teleprotection Commands: Input Settings’, pay
attention that all commands set for more than 5 seconds will be cut off.
Check: Correct trip transmission for all protection applications according
to project documentation
Check: Correct trip acknowledges signal output according to project documentation
• Interrupt the trip transmission path and observe the reaction of the ‘Command Alarm Signal’ output on
Protection Signal Simulator or on the Binary Signal Simulator depending on the configuration.
Doc. no. RIV Page
Check: Correct command alarm output signal for all protection applications according
to project documentation
• Reset the TEBIT parameter ‘Nominal Input Voltage’ in the ‘Teleprotection Commands: Input Settings’ to the
voltage specified by the project documentation for all the commands involved.
The trip transfer and trip extension time is checked to correspond to the project specifications by means of the
‘Testbox MK11’ (Ordering # HENF468695P0001). Every enabled teleprotection command of the project has to
be checked.
Important: The ‘Testbox MK11’ does not provide all voltages for the configurable ‘Nominal Input
Voltage’ parameter in the ‘Teleprotection Commands: Input Settings’. Alternatively,
the following voltages of the ‘Testbox MK11’ can be used:
• 48 V for ‘Nominal Input Voltage’ 24, 48, 60 V
• 100 V for ‘Nominal Input Voltage’ 110, 125 V
• 220 V for ‘Nominal Input Voltage’ 220, 250 V
1
Check: Trip transfer time ≤ 5 ms (speed optimized)
≤ 8 ms (security optimized)
Check: Trip extension according to project documentation
See annex M.9
Since wrong address configuration would result in commands not being transmitted, the check for correct
channel addressing is reduced to verification if addressing has been configured in UCST.
• Establish the connection to the NE with the corresponding configuration file loaded in UCST.
• Select the TEBIT traffic parameter mask in UCST and check the addresses in ‘Teleprotection Command
Parameters’.
• Connect one Binary Signal Simulator to every TEBIT involved in the application that is checked
• Set and reset the binary signals on the Binary Signal Simulator for every application and observe the
reaction on the other Binary Signal Simulators involved.

The given trip transfer time refers to a single NE TEBIT <-> TEBIT point to point connection. If the trip command travels
through intermediate NEs the following additional propagation delay time must be added:
Speed optimized: about 1.5 ms per through connection (TEBIT command cross connect)
Security optimized: about 2.5 ms per through connection (TEBIT command cross connect)
• If applicable (see also E), connect the appropriate source and load impedance to the communication
channel interface
• EXLAN complex Rs = 220 Ω, Rp = 820 Ω, Cp = 115 nF
• SUBHx real/complex according the project documentation
• Apply an analogue signal with f = 1020 Hz and level according to the specification in the project
documentation to the far end of the communication channel
• Connect an appropriate level meter at the DUT side of the communication channel

For a detailed instruction of the 2-wire Coupling Circuit configuration refer to document 1KHD626831.
• Connect the ISDN telephone exchange and the ISDN telephone subscriber set to the corresponding
interface unit.
• Establish a call.
Check: Connection OK
Appropriate test equipment can be used to perform this operation check instead of the telephone exchange and
the subscriber set.
Remark: As the test set and the NE are not synchronized from the same clock source
(plesiochronous operation), an octet slip will occur every 5...10 s. This is normal and
does not constitute a fault.

G. Management Channel
G.1 General
For these tests, the entire network must be connected and configured.
G.2 ECC
• Connect the PC to the master station via F or via Qx interface.
• Check the IP routing tables in the connection setup of UCST.
• Establish a connection to each station on the ECC network in turns.
• Upload the NE configuration and check the alarm condition of the NE.
• In case of redundant ECC paths, check that all paths work correctly by interrupting the others.
J.Final Checks
Boot procedure
for a single station: Switch off and on the power. Check the correct operation after the system
reboot. No additional Alarms should be active (except "real time lost" Alarm).
for a network: Switch off and on the power of minimum tow stations. Check the correct
operation after the system reboot. No additional Alarms should be active
(except "real time lost" Alarm).
Alarms
Check alarm status. Depending upon the condition of the installation of the FOX 515/512 network
and the attached terminal equipment, it is possible that interface modules show alarms if no DTEs
are connected. These alarms are allowed because they will disappear on site once the DTEs will be
