System Description

Coral System General Features


The Coral 800 is a digital communications switching system, available in a variety of
configurations that share a common architecture. The Coral system is based on Pulse
Coded Modulation (PCM) switching technology. The active circuitry of the system is
contained on removable printed circuit assemblies or cards, nearly all of which may be
used in any system in the family.
The active circuitry of the Coral 800 system is divided into two major categories:
common control and peripheral circuitry. The common control circuitry directs call
traffic through the system, establishing audio connections between peripheral ports.
The peripheral circuitry provides the hardware necessary to establish those
connections. Instructions from the common control circuitry to the peripheral circuitry,
and status information from the peripheral circuitry to the common control circuitry
are passed through the group controller. The group controller provides driver and time
slot interchange functions for the PCM highways and the HDLC channels.
The peripheral circuitry is further divided into Shared Service and Peripheral Interface
functions. The shared service circuitry provides the equipment necessary to establish
calls between Peripheral interfaces. The Peripheral Interface circuitry provides
standardized electrical connections to external telephone station equipment and
network facilities.

Coral System Configurations


The major distinction between different Coral system configurations is their number of
card slots, into which Shared Service and Peripheral Interface cards may be inserted.
to 30 universal card slots or 3 cages. The Coral IPx 800 cage operates from a standard
100-240VAC 47-63Hz power source, or from a 48 volt direct current (DC) stationary
battery.
The Coral IPx 3000 system has the same rack-mounted design as the Coral IPx 800, but
includes more cage options, including up to 178 universal card slots or 16 cages. The
Coral IPx 3000 offers the option of operating from either 100-240VAC 47-63Hz, or from
a 48 volt direct current (DC) stationary battery plant for increased service reliability.

2.1

Site Inspection

Installation Environment
The Coral IPx 800 system should be installed in restricted access areas (dedicated
equipment rooms, equipment closets, or the like) in accordance with articles 110-16,
110-17, and 110-18 of the national electric code, ANSI/NFPA 70.
Access to the system should be limited and controlled to prevent unauthorized
tampering. The system uses hazardous working voltages and extremely high short
circuit currents, and the area must be protected against damage by, and injury to,
unqualified personnel.
Due to these considerations, an installation area must be chosen in accordance with the
following guidelines:
1.

Verify that the installation area is clean, dry, and protected from weather extremes.

2.

Verify that the floor of the installation area is finished with linoleum, vinyl,
ceramic, wooden flooring, or polished sealed concrete. Carpeting is not acceptable.

3.

Verify that the ceiling of the installation area is finished or treated to prevent
particle discharge.

4.

Verify that the installation area is well lit, and that the light source is uniformly
diffused without shadows. Adequate lighting should provide a comfortable
reading level and allow the identification of wire insulator colors without undue
eye fatigue.
Lighting should be comparable to an office work environment, with a minimum
level of 70 foot-candles at each work surface. As a general rule, in a room with an
eight foot (2.5m) ceiling, one 48 inch fluorescent tube provides sufficient
Verify that ventilation of the installation area is capable of maintaining an ambient

Ground Wiring
Proper system grounding is critical for reliable system operation. System grounding is
only as effective as the ground point itself. To ensure adequate protection from
interference by radio frequency energy, electrical impulse noise, and lightening or
power line surge, the building electrical ground point must comply with grounding
recommendations of the National Area Code, Article 800, and/or applicable, local
building and electrical codes.
The purpose of ground circuit design is to establish a low resistance path to the earth,
and conduct a number of currents in such a way as to minimize the interaction of any
two or more currents. The ground connection is used as a common conductor for
many circuits: some carrying wanted signals, and others carrying unwanted signals.
The same ground that carries small networking currents must also carry unwanted
radio frequency energy, impulse noise, and lightening surges that might otherwise
interfere with system operation.
The ground terminal includes an M4 threaded terminal pole that is fixed to the bottom
right corner on the rear side of the cage (by the manufacturer), a serrated washer, a flat
washer, and an M4 nut.

Electrical Hazard. Incorrect ground wire connections to the system can cause shock,
burn, or death.
Verify that the ground wires are 10 AWG stranded conductor.
Verify that all cage ground connections are made directly from the cage ground
connection to the master ground.
Do not interconnect cage ground terminals between Coral IPx cages.
Ring terminals retain wires onto the terminal lug when the connection is loosened.
Verify that all ground wires include ring terminals at both ends.
Connect only a Protective Earth (PE) to the Coral IPx system.
Resistance from the master ground to the building electrical ground should never
exceed 1.0 ohm. The master ground bar should be located in the switching room as
close as possible to the Coral system. Any ground connection of equipment related to
the switching Coral system should ultimately connect to the master ground.

The cage ground wire is connected to the cage at the rear bottom right corner, as
described on page 2-18, Connecting the Ground Wire to the Cage.

Hardware Installation Procedure

Equipment Installation

Do not connect a separate Telecommunications Reference Conductor (TRC).

2-17

Connecting the Ground Wire to the Cage


The cage ground connection includes one serrated washer, one flat washer, and one
hexagonal nut. See Figure 2-7.
Connect the ground wire to the cage as follows:
1.

Remove the hexagonal nut and flat washer from the ground terminal, and retain
for reassembly.

2.

Insert the ground wire ring terminal over the serrated washer.

3.

Insert the flat washer onto the ground wire ring terminal.

4.

Fasten the hexagonal nut.

The hexagonal nut can be fastened or unfastened only with a closed 7mm
hexagonal socket wrench with a 1/4 drive and an adaptor. An open wrench
cannot be maneuvered in the restricted space around the nut.

Connecting the I/O Cables


The Input/Output (I/O) cables are described in further detail in Chapter 6 - Cage
Description. Read the entire chapter before attempting to connect the I/O cables.

Champ Connections
1.

Determine the route of I/O cables from the MDF to the I/O Champ connectors of
the card cage and measure the longest distance from an I/O connector on the card
cage to the corresponding cable punch block on the MDF.

2.

Prepare cables that are the length determined above, with a male 25 pair connector
on one end, for each I/O connector on the card cage. Eight 25 pair cables are
required for main cages and twelve cables are required for expansion cages.

3.

Carefully route the connector end of the first cable to the left I/O connector. Insert
the cable connector firmly into the Coral I/O connector.

4.

Route the other end of the cable to the appropriate cable punch block on the MDF.

5.

Repeat this procedure for each I/O cable, moving from left to right across the
upper I/O connectors, and then from left to right across the lower I/O connectors,
until all cables are in place.

6.

Mark each I/O cable near the connector on the card cage rear panel with the
corresponding peripheral shelf and I/O connector number on the Coral system.

7.

Terminate each of the cables in their respective cable punch blocks on the MDF.

8.

Mark each cable punch block with the corresponding I/O connector number on
the Coral system. Optionally mark every eighth pair on the block, starting with
the first pair, with the number of the two card slots associated with the I/O cable,
according to Table 2-7 and Figure 2-16.

Coral IPx 800 Installation Manual

Shared Service and Peripheral Interface Card Installation

Some shared service and peripheral interface cards listed in Table 2-10may
require changes to option straps on the card that determines the electrical
characteristics or operation of each interface circuit. Refer to specific card
descriptions in the Coral Service and Peripheral Cards Installation
Manual for details.
Peripheral Interface cards may be installed in any universal I/O slot of the Coral
system. However, the following considerations must be taken into account when
designing the peripheral card placements.
Determine the position of shared service and peripheral interface cards that will
be inserted into the card slots. Observe any order previously directed by a system
designer or any established convention of the distributor. The card placement
diagrams, Figure 2-19 through Figure 2-21, can be used as a worksheet by the
system designer to establish card placement prior to installation. Refer to Table
2-10 to determine shared service and peripheral interface card types. If no other
convention exists, plan the card placement as follows:

In the main cage, insert a shared service card into slot 9.

In a system with one expansion cage, insert a shared service card into slot 1 of
the expansion cage.

In a system with two expansion cages; insert a PX card into slot 1 of the first
expansion cage, and insert a shared service card into slot 1 of the second
expansion cage.

See page 6-68, Suggestions for Peripheral Card Distribution for timeslot/PCM
distribution among the slots. The timeslots are evenly divided into three
groups of 128 timeslots for each of the slot slots. Therefore, slots 1-4 share 128
time slots, slots 5-8 share an additional 128 timeslots, and slots 9-12 share the
last 128 timeslots. Distribute heavy consumer cards (cards with a large number
of ports: 30T/x, T1, PRI-23, PRI-30,UDT, IPG or UGW with MG-30 or MG-60

Distribute trunk interface cards (4ALS, 8ALS, 8BID, 8DID, 4GID, 4T, 8T, 4T-C,
8T-C, 4T-CID, 8T-CID, 4TEM, 4TMR, 4TPF, 8TPF, DPC, 4TBR, 8TBR, 30T, 30T/x,
PRI23, PRI30, UDT and T1) evenly among all cages in the system, rather than
concentrate trunk interface cards in one cage. This practice ensures that the
failure of a single cage will have minimal impact to trunk service.

Insert the digital trunk interface cards into slots 4 and 5 of the designated main
or expansion cages. Slots 4 and 5 are wired as the secondary and primary
external clock source, respectively. The cards inserted in these slots can be used
to synchronize the Coral system clock with a network clock signal via a digital
trunk circuit. Refer to Coral Synchronization via Digital Trunks section in the Coral

Hardware Installation Procedure

units) among the PCM groups evenly.

1.

Service and Peripheral Cards Installation Manual, for more information about
synchronization.

Insert peripheral cards into slots 1 through 8 of the main cage and slots 2
through 12 of the expansion cages.

2.

If IPx 500X expansion cages are installed determine the position of peripheral
interface cards that will be inserted into card slots 1 through 10 in the expansion
cage. Observe any order previously directed by a system designer or any
established convention of the distributor. The card placement diagrams, Figure
2-22 through Figure 2-23, may be used as a worksheet by the system designer to
establish card placement prior to installation. Refer to the Coral IPx 500 Installation
Manual Chapter 2 and the Coral Service and Peripheral Cards Installation Manual.
Place digital trunk interface cards in card slots 4 and/or 5. Slots 4 and 5 are wired
as the primary and secondary external clock source, respectively. The cards
inserted in these slots can be used to synchronize the Coral IPx system clock with
a network clock signal derived from a digital trunk circuit.
If no other convention exists, refer to Section 10, Peripheral Cards Installation of the
Coral IPx 500 Installation Manual.

3.

Remove shared service and peripheral interface cards from their shipping cartons
and partially insert them into the card slots as determined above. Allow the cards
to protrude from the card cage by approximately 1 inch (2.5cm).

Program Interface Device Connection

The data terminal or personal computer that is used as the Program


Interface (PI) device must be equipped with an RS-232E asynchronous
serial data interface. This interface can be configured for a data rate of
115200, 57600, 38400, 19,200, 9600, 4800, 1200, or 300 bps, 8 data bits,
1stop bit, and no parity bit or EVEN, ODD, mark, space, parity. The PI device
must use the American Standard Code for Information Interchange (ASCII)
character set. The earth ground connection to the PI device must be the
same earth ground connection supplied to the Coral system.
1.

If the system includes a dedicated PI device on-site permanently, unpack this


device and prepare it for operation. Set the interface for a data rate of 9600 bits per
second, 8 data bits, 1stop bit, and no parity bit. (These are the default settings for
all serial programming ports of the Coral system.)

2.

Obtain or prepare a serial data cable to connect the PI device to the KB0 serial
programming port on the front panel of the MEX-IP card. The KB0 port end of the
serial programming cable requires a male DA-9P style connector, wired as shown
in either Figure 2-24 or Figure 2-25.

3.

If the PI device uses a DB-25P or DB-25S connector, wire the connectors according
to the diagram in Figure 2-24. If the PI device is a personal computer equipped
2-25.

4.

For installations that have a permanent PI device, route the serial data cable from
the PI device through one of the cable routing slots on the side of the cage. Place
the serial data cable together with other cables entering the cage. Leave
approximately 24 inches (60cm) of cable on the front side of the cabinet so that it
reaches the front panel of the MEX-IP card installed on the control cage without
interfering with the insertion or removal of any circuit cards or power supplies.

Memory Lithium Battery Condition Test


If the start-up tests detect that the voltage level of a lithium backup battery on the
MEX-IP or DBX card is insufficient to reliably maintain the memory contents in
the event of power failure, one of the following messages will appear:
MEX-IP - BATTERY LOW
or
J1 DOWN BATTERY LOW
These messages indicate that the MEX-IP card or DBX card battery has an insufficient
voltage level. The first message indicates that the battery located on the MEX-IP card has
an insufficient voltage level, while the second message indicates that the battery on a DBX
baby card (in this case, the card attached to memory connector J1) should be replaced. In
this event the Coral system database is in jeopardy of being lost during a power failure. If
this message appears, the database should be saved and the batteries replaced at the first
opportunity.
To ensure that the system database is not lost, save the database to the IMC8 flash memory
card via the database controls branch of the system database (PI Route: ROOT,0,10,2,2,0).
See Section 4.2, System Database Control on page 4-5for details. If the system loses power or
is reset for any reason and the database loses memory, the system will copy the database
from the IMC8 card into database memory as the system restarts.
Once the system database is safely saved on the IMC8 card, power to the Coral system
may be turned off at a time that will cause the least disruption of service to the user. At
that time, the battery (or batteries) on the MEX-IP may be replaced and the system
restarted.

Common Control Test

To replace the lithium battery, insert the new battery with the + (positive)
symbol appearing on top.

Explosion and Environmental Hazards.


There is a danger of explosion if the battery is replaced incorrectly.
Replace the battery only with the same or equivalent type recommended by the
manufacturer.
Dispose of used batteries according to requirements specified by the battery
manufacturer and/or local regulatory agencies.

Rules for Inserting a Coral Circuit Card


1.

Connect the static dissipating wrist strap connector to the cage and wear the
strap..

Coral circuit cards contain static-sensitive circuitry that could be damaged or destroyed
by electro-static discharge (ESD).
Always wear the static dissipating wrist strap connected to the cage while handling the
circuit cards. See Figure 2-17 on page 2-30.
Hold circuit cards by their edges to avoid touching contact surfaces.

2.

To insert a circuit card completely into its slot, gently slide the card straight into
the card slot. A slight resistance is felt as the multi-pin connectors on the circuit
card meet mating connectors on the backplane and engage.

3.

Push against the ejectors until the front panel of the card is flush with the front
frame of the card cage.

Do not force the circuit card into the slot. If more than slight resistance is encountered,
remove the circuit card and examine the connectors for bent pins or interfering debris.
Never place a card in a slot other than the dedicated one. Refer to Table 2-10 on page
2-41 to determine peripheral interface card types.

Shared Service and Peripheral Card Test

4.

On the front panel of the PS19 unit, verify that the green Power indicator is lit,
while the red Alarm indicator is not lit.
If the red alarm indicator illuminates, see:
page 7-12, Troubleshooting (PS19 DC),
page 7-33, Troubleshooting (PS19 DC-D),
page 7-49, Troubleshooting (PS19 AC), in Chapter 7.

5.

On the front panel of the peripheral card, verify that the red diagnostic LED (near
the top of the card) illuminates. The LED remains illuminated continuously until
the card receives its database from the system. After a few seconds, verify that the
LED extinguishes. An extinguished diagnostic LED indicates that the card has
initialized properly.
If the LED remains on continuously for more than two or three minutes, either

there is a conflict between the system database and its authorizations, or the card
may be faulty. Refer to the Coral Service and Peripheral Cards Installation Manual for
further details on LED indication.

Coral IPx 800 Installation Manual

6.

Attach the Program Interface (PI) device cable to the KB0 programming port
connector on the front panel of the MEX-IP if not already attached. The
installation of shared service and peripheral interface cards into a Coral system
has considerable impact on the system database. Refer to Chapter 6 of the Program
Interface & Database Reference Manual for more information. Using the PI, verify
that each of the parameters detailed below contain the appropriate information.

7.

Access the card list branch of the PI (Route: CLIS) to verify that the cards are
properly recognized and initialized by the Coral IPx 800 main cage MEX-IP
processor.

PS 19 DC-D Backup Power Supply Check


The purpose of this procedure is to check that the PS19 DC-D card is capable of
supplying power to another cage via a H719 DC-D cable (Catalog Number
7244-8001907).
To check the PS19 DC-D card, do one of the following:

If the system includes one PS19 DC-D card for every two cages, insert at least one
peripheral card into the cage that does NOT include the PS19 DC-D card. Verify
that the shared service card or peripheral card initializes.

If the system includes a PS19 DC-D for every cage (for backup), remove the H719
cable from the rear panel of one of the cages, and insert at least one peripheral
card or shared service card into a cage slot. Reconnect the H719 cable. Verify that
the card initializes.

Introduction
The Coral IPx 800 system is delivered to the site with factory-loaded software on IMC8
card. The IMC8 card is a 8MB Flash Memory. See Section 8.3 - IMC8 Flash-Erase Software
Memory Unit. The IMC8 card is installed on the MEX-IP card.
The software initialization procedure is described in Section 3.2 - Common Control Test.
The IMC8 card contains three types of data:

Generic Feature Software Version and Boot Code

Authorization

Database Backup

The IMC8 card can be inserted into a PC slot using any PCMCIA application adapter
for loading a new Coral software version.
Whenever an updated version of the Coral software is released, the upgrade is
delivered to the sites either on 3.5 diskettes, e-mail, or via other electronic media file
transfer. The upgrade is contained in a self-extracting compressed file, specific for the
site.
The upgraded generic feature software must be extracted by a PC using the FMprog
tool, and then written from the PC hard disk into the IMC8 card. The FMprog is a tool
for Coral dealers who install, upgrade and maintain Coral systems using flash memory
Generic Feature Software Upgrade

cards. For FMprog application, see the FMprog PC-Utility Reference Manual. This
reference manual describes how to install and operate the FMprog-Utility.

Software Installation Procedure

4-1

Upgrading Using FMprog PC-Utility

Use FMprog version 5.xx and later. Otherwise, the Coral will not initialize.
The upgrade of the generic feature software involves three main steps:
1.

Installing the FMprog-Utility (version 5.xx and later)

2.

Extracting the new Coral generic feature software file into the PC hard disk

3.

Programming the new generic software upgrade to the IMC8 card

The FMprog-utility can be used to backup the Coral software into PCMCIA cards. The
backup file is in a binary format and includes all the software components of the
specific Coral system from which it was copied (i.e. the Coral generic software version,
the switch authorization and the database). The manufacturer highly recommends to
keep a copy of the current files located at each customer site. Copies should be made
per customer site since each site has its unique set of software configuration, i.e. its
main software version, switch authorization and database, as well as specific Software
Authorization Unit (SAU) information. Should the need arise to reinstate or copy
systems files, copies of all systems files exist and are available for use via the
FMprog-Utility.
Use the FMprog-Utility to:

Installing an Upgraded IMC8 Card


This section provides instructions on inserting the IMC8 flash memory card after it has
been programmed with a new or upgraded software version.

Creating a Binary Backup of the Database


Before installing an IMC8 card with a new generic software version, it is strongly
recommended that you make a binary backup of the database. The binary backup
must be done by a PC using the Binary Backup PC-Utility. The Binary Backup is a tool
for Coral technicians who install, upgrade and maintain Coral systems. See the
Database Binary Backup PC Utility Reference Manual for further details.

Installing the IMC8 Card

Before each installation or removal of an IMC8 card from the Coral IPx 800, press the
RESET button on the MEX-IP card.
Do not remove the IMC8 card from the MEX-IP when P is illuminated. The MEX-IP
numeric status display indicates various operating and error states of the Coral IPx 800

After the second message appears, the system initialized properly and is capable of
processing calls. After entering the password, the version level of the generic feature
software is indicated where the x's appear in the line that reads CCS xx.xx.xx.
8.

The new IMC8 card does not include a backup of the current database. To make a
backup of the database, perform the procedure described on page 4-6, Saving to
IMC8.

The generic feature software contained in the IMC8 is coded to function with one (and
only one) SAU, which must be installed on the MEX-IP card. The SAU also includes
information regarding the features and the highest Coral version authorized to be used
in the specific system. If the serial number of the SAU does not match the serial number
coded into the generic software, or if the generic feature software contained in the IMC8
is higher than authorized by the SAU, or if the SAU is removed from the MEX-IP, the
Coral system automatically ceases call processing after 14 days.
The program contained on the IMC8 permits the generic software to be accessed even
if the serial number of the SAU is incorrect or the SAU is absent entirely. If, however, the
Coral determines that the SAU is missing or not correct, a message appears during the
procedure warning that the system will not operate without the proper SAU. This
provision allows the generic feature software and/or feature authorizations to be
upgraded on an IMC8 card in another distant system, then installed at the proper
system by replacing the existing IMC8 card from the other distant system containing the

Generic Feature Software Upgrade

upgrade.

System Database Control

During normal system operation, the configuration database may be saved to a file on
the IMC8 card for permanent storage. The system may also be programmed to save
the database to IMC8 automatically on a daily basis, at a particular time.
A saved database file may be loaded at any time into the system database memory.
This is a way to restore the database into the RAM of a new MEX-IP (and DBX)
memory card.
Once the database in the system has been constructed, copy the database onto the
IMC8 card. For more detailed information, see Chapter 21 of the Program Interface
Reference Manual.

From the Database Flash Menu press 0 to save the database to a file on the IMC8
card. The system prompts for the selection of a destination file number, either
DB0.DEF or DB1.DEF, with:
DEST FILE (0,1) - [0]
The DB0.DEF file may be saved automatically at a preset time each day, and so is
usually more up-to-date than the DB1.DEF file. See page 4-11, Automatic Daily
Backup. The DB1.DEF file is referred to as the technician copy of the database, and
should be saved each time installation or maintenance personnel make changes to
the database.

Loading (Restoring) from IMC8


A system database stored in IMC8 can be loaded into the database memory on the
MEX-IP card at any time.

Loading the database from IMC8 generally takes several minutes. During
this process the Coral system is non-operational.
Loading a database can be useful for installing the database of an existing system into
the database memory of another system that will have a substantially similar
configuration. Similarly, a database can be created by programming a system off-line at
another location (perhaps at the distributor's facilities). The database can then be
loaded at a convenient time at the intended site.

Loading a database from IMC8 into the system database memory destroys the original
database information stored in the database memory and overwrites it with information
in the IMC8 database file. Once overwritten, the original database cannot be recovered.

1.

From the Database Flash Menu, press 1 to load a database from IMC8.
The system will display the following message:
CAUTION: Database contents will be lost & system will
restart !!!
Proceed with restore (Y/N) ? [N]

2.

If Y is selected, the system prompts to select a source file number, either DB0.DEF
or DB1.DEF with:

Next, the system will execute the partial initialization.
If the conditions mentioned above were not met, one of the following messages
will be displayed:
Operation denied DB0.DEF is not O.K.
or
Operation denied DB1.DEF is not O.K.
If only one backup file was present when the technician requested DB1.DEF
retrieval, the following message appears:
Operation denied, Load DBS available only to DB0.DEF
Press Y to begin loading the database, or press N to return to the Database Menu.

Numeric Status Display


The MEX-IP numeric status display (see Figure 3-3 on page 3-15) indicates various
operating and error states of the Coral IPx 800 system, and it can provide valuable
information to assist in the maintenance of the system. Table 4-1 lists the various status
indications and their corresponding meaning.
A . (dot) appears during normal system operation.
A "0" appears on the status display whenever the system is off-line for maintenance
testing, or to install or update the generic software.
A "b" in the status display indicates that a backup battery on the MEX-IP or on a DBX
card no longer has sufficient energy to maintain the memory circuitry in the event
system power is lost. Each time a programming session is started from the Program
Interface, any faulty battery is identified. The system database should be saved as soon
as possible to an FM unit, and the faulty battery must be replaced as soon as the
system can be shut down, to ensure continued system reliability.
An "F" indicates that the Main Processor has been interrupted to prevent database
corruption during a power fluctuation. This condition should clear itself momentarily.

Do not remove the IMC8 card from the MEX-IP when P is illuminated.

All other error status indications generally indicate a more serious problem, and they
are likely to be accompanied by considerable system malfunction. Should an error
indication appear not to affect system operation, save the database to DB0.DEF
immediately. Follow the instructions on page 4-6, Saving to IMC8.
When the system can be restarted without disrupting service, press the INT push
button, followed by the RESET push button on the front panel of the MEX-IP.

This chapter describes the MDF and the pinout connections to the IPx 800 cage and
external equipment. The main distribution frame (MDF) is the wiring interface for the
Coral IPx system and associated peripheral equipment.
The MDF is often located adjacent to other signaling systems, such as:

Paging and public address systems

Voice messaging systems

Alarm and monitoring systems

Closed circuit television

Property management systems

Building and energy management systems

Therefore, care should be taken to plan the MDF layout before fastening components
Trunk circuits

Wired and wireless station equipment

Database programming terminals

Report printers

Music and/or audio sources

External public address or paging equipment

Recording devices

I/O Connections in the Coral


Most connections to the Coral cabinet are made using standard, 25-wire pair, I/O
(input/output) connectors to the Coral IPx 800 rear panel. Cables from the Coral rear
panel are connected to the MDF and from there to punch blocks. Individual trunk
and station interface circuits can then be cross-connected from Coral I/O punch blocks
to other punch blocks that terminate trunk circuits, station wiring, and other external
equipment. See Figure 5-1.

External Connections

5-1

Main Distribution Frame

to the wall or mounting surface, such as:

In some cases, connections are made via RJ-45 or DA-15S connectors on the front panel
of a Coral circuit card. For example, the UDT, UGW, IPG, PRI, T1, and 30T digital
trunk interfaces. See page 5-25, I/O Connections Via Front Panel on page 5-25. Similarly,
the KB0 database Programming Interface (PI) port appears on a DB9 connector on the
MEX-IP Common Control cards. Plan for permanent wiring to these card types
accordingly.
In some cases, connections are made via RJ-45 connectors on the rear panel of the card
cage. For example, the UGW (layout B1), UGW-E, PRI (layout UDT C), T1 (layout
UDT C), and 30T (layout UDT C). See page 5-41, I/O RJ-45 Connections Via Rear
Panel on page 5-25.

Tip:
It is recommended to terminate all the I/O connectors available in the
system on punch blocks at the MDF even if some cables are not initially
used. This saves time and effort when the system expands.

MDF Size and Location Considerations


In standard MDF wiring convention, ancillary equipment wiring (key systems, paging,
etc.) is placed to the left of the MDF. Coral I/O cables are placed next to them (on the
left). Next left are protection devices (if any). The outermost cables (on the left) are the
Building Entrance cables (UG, underground, demarcation point cables). Station and
other internal building wiring is placed on the right side of the MDF. This order
ensures the shortest path for block to block cross connect wiring and minimizes
overlap.

Tip:
Anticipated expansion should be taken into consideration (external and
internal cables, protective devices, station wiring, etc.) when planning the
Main Distribution Frame

MDF. If a system is installed at near capacity, the MDF should be laid out so

that a move to a larger Coral cabinet can be made easily.

TIP and Ring Wiring


Some discontinued station equipment using circuits from 2SD, 8SD, 2SK, 4SK and 8SK
cards (as well as some old single line telephones) are polarity sensitive. The
equipment will malfunction if polarity is reversed. See Figure 5-2.
In addition, when upgrading from Coral FlexiCom systems to Coral IPx 800, 3000,
4000; in Coral FlexiCom wiring, wire pair TIP conductors are placed below the pair's
RING conductors, and in Coral IPx 800, 3000, 4000 wiring, all wire pair TIP conductors
are placed above the pair's RING conductors on the punch block.

Connections to Coral IPx 800 system station equipment are established by
cross-connecting the station circuit from the appropriate Coral IPx 800 I/O cable punch
block to the corresponding station wiring punch block.
Table 5-1 lists the various station interface cards available for the Coral system, the
type of station equipment that the card supports, and the number of wire pairs
required by the station interface.
Station wiring between the Coral IPx 800 system MDF and the station equipment
should contain at least 2, and preferably 4 wire pairs to ensure adequate wiring
capacity. At the station location, the station wiring should be terminated with a
modular, six position, telephone jack, containing at least 4 conductors (pins 2, 3, 4, and
5).
Figure 5-3 illustrates typical jack configurations with wire designations for four station
types:

2-wire SLT single-line telephones and digital station sets (FlexSet, APDL, CPA,
GKT, DKT, DST, 2-wire DIM, and VDM) need only connect Tip [T] and Ring [R] or
<UpA> and <UpB> as shown.

FlexSet 280 series or FlexSet APDL units with PEX or PEX+APA, DKT 2000 sets
with PEX or APA, or VDM need an extra 2 wires when power is supplied through
the line connector. The polarity of this connection is irrelevant. When using the
designations are listed under the wire color in plain text, VDK, 4W-DIM, and TIM
designations are listed in parentheses ( ).

For peripheral device installation, refer to the Coral Terminal Equipment Installation
Manual.
To prevent a potential shock hazard to station users and damage to the system, make
sure that station circuits extended over cables that exit the building are adequately

Trunk Circuits
Generally, trunk circuits are connected to the Coral IPx 800 system simply by
cross-connecting the trunk interface circuit of a Coral trunk card to the point of
demarcation where the trunk circuits appear from the telephone utility company
(telco). For more specific data regarding all trunk types supported by the Coral IPx 800
system, refer to the Coral Service and Peripheral Cards Installation Manual.
Protective devices are regularly provided by the telecommunication connections on
circuits originating outside the building. Determine if the telecommunication
connection protective devices meet the specifications described in the following
section: Protection Devices on page 5-11. If not, install secondary protector devices that
meet these specifications. To be effective, the protective devices, whether telco or
customer provided, must be grounded to the same ground point as the Coral system.
Figure 5-4 illustrates typical trunk circuit wiring from building entrance to the Coral
IPx 800 system.

Introduction to Primary and Secondary Protection Devices

Any circuit connected to the Coral system that is exposed to lightning or electrical
hazards must be protected with approved lightning and surge protection devices to
avoid potentially lethal hazards to all users.
.

Secondary protection devices should be installed on any circuit requiring primary


lightning protection, which connects electrically to an interface of the Coral system.

Lightning and over-voltage arrestors are used to protect the user and the system from
lightning and other electrical hazards that may occur on external circuits connected to
the system.
Any cable that passes through open air, under open ground (i.e.: across parking lots,
fields, road beds, etc.), across a bridge, or along the exterior or under the non-metallic
roof of a building, is exposed to lightning and electrical hazards.
Telephone circuit protection devices fall into two distinct design categories:

Primary (lightning) protection devices which limit voltages on a telephone circuit


specifications)

Secondary (surge and impulse) protectors that further limit voltages on a


telephone circuit to prevent damage to electronic equipment. (Table 5-3 lists
minimum specifications)

Primary protection absorbs the major impact of infrequent, but dangerous, catastrophic

Protection Devices

below levels which do not present a hazard to the user. (Table 5-2 lists minimum

surges; while secondary protection suppresses constantly occurring impulses which,


while not dangerous, can cripple valuable, and in many cases, essential

communications facilities.

External Connections

5-11

Generally, leased or switched circuit facilities provided by the local telephone utility
company are equipped with primary protection devices installed with the circuit.
However, privately owned aerial or buried cable feeding from one building to another
may not be equipped with protection devices. Always consult with whomever
provided the circuits to determine whether protection devices are present, and if so,
what type. Never assume that protection devices have been provided by another party,
or that existing protection devices are adequate.
The secondary protection has to include a leakage current protector in series of every
wire, tip and ring, on every port that is either connected to the public telephone
network or to an out of the building cable. The requirement is in accordance with UL
Specification 60950, Third Edition or CSA C22.2 No. 60950. The required protectors can
be mounted directly on a 66 block in the MDF.

Power Fail (PF) Transfer Circuits

5.4

With the installation of trunk cards that support the PF (Power Fail) transfer option,
four trunks per trunk card may be directed to station sets if power to the Coral system
is interrupted. This arrangement, referred to as power failure transfer, completely
bypasses the system, allowing specific stations to originate outgoing calls and/or
continue answering incoming calls.
5

Physical Connection
Stations
Both SLT (single line telephone) sets, and special EKT-PF1 telephones may be used as
power failure stations. Figure 5-7 and Figure 5-8 illustrate wiring interconnections
between the trunk card, station card, and an SLT and EKT-PF station set, respectively.

Coral FlexSet, GKT, DKT and DST cannot be used as power failure stations.

Trunks
The following Analog Trunk Peripheral cards support Power Fail Transfer:

The following four-trunk cards, each provides four (4) ports with PF transfer:
4TMR/S-12PF-ES, 4TMR/S PF-G, 4TMR/S-50/16PF-G, 4TMR/S-12/16PF,
4TMR-12/16PF, 4ALS, 4ALS/M

The following eight-trunk cards, each provides four (4) ports with PF transfer:
8T-C, 8T-CID, 8TPF, 8T/S-PF, 8T/S-PF-G, 8ALS, 8ALS/M,
NOTE: only circuits 2, 3, 4 and 5 support power failure transfer.

For further information on these trunk interface cards see Coral Service and Peripheral
Cards Manual.

Terminal Data Communication Ports


RS-232E
The Coral switching system is capable of switching digital data information as well as
voice signals. Coral system data communications devices are available for packet
switched data for low volume applications. The packet data communications are
provided using the APA (Application Processor Adapter), PEX+APA or APDL
(Applications Processor Data Link). The data communication devices provide a serial
interface wired as Data Communications Equipment (DCE). That is, they transmit data
is data to the APA/APDL, and receive data from the device.
The APA provides a proprietary data link to an external Applications Processor. The
link uses an asynchronous RS-232E (V.24) serial data interface, operating at a data rate
of up to 19.2Kbps. The interface appears at a:

DB-25S connector on the rear panel of the APDL and DKT2000 with an APA

RJ-45 jack connector on the rear panel of the FlexSet 80, GKT, FlexSet APDL,
FlexSet APA or FlexSet PEX+APA.

Through the link, a proprietary signaling protocol allows the Coral system Master
Processor to send call status messages to the Applications Processor, and the
Applications Processor to send call control instructions to the APA / APDL.
Application processors available for the Coral system include the Computerized
Coral CallMaster (CCM), Coral World Wide Office (WWO), TAPIdriver, GKT
PC-Utility, or any other application that complies with proprietary API products.
Use the following RS-232 cables:

CN#7244-8001195 for DKT2000 with APA or APDL

CN#7244-6914055 for FlexSet 80, GKT, FlexSet APDL, FlexSet APA or


FlexSet PEX+APA.

General
The following section contains the I/O Connector Pin Designation tables for all the
peripheral cards currently available for the Coral IPx 800, 3000, 4000 cabinets.
The respective tables for the front panel connections are shown in Section 5.6, I/O
Connections Via Front Panel on page 5-25. While the respective tables for the rear panel
connections are shown in Section 5.7, I/O RJ-45 Connections Via Rear Panel on page 5-41.

Table Presentation
Each I/O connector services two universal I/O slots.

Connector - to - Peripheral Card tables

Peripheral Card - to - Connector tables

Connector - to - Peripheral Card tables (see Table 5-16)


The Connector-to-Peripheral Card tables, located on the left-hand pages, display the
pin-to-port designations from the connector's point of view.

Tip:
These tables can be very helpful for a first-time installation.

Tip:
These tables can be used for Block 66 MDF connections as their terminals
follow the same numbering pattern.

I/O Connections Via Champ Connectors For Coral Interface Cards

There are two I/O connection tables for each peripheral card:

External Connections

5-49

Peripheral Card - to - Connector tables (see Table 5-17)


The Card-to-Connector tables, located on the right hand pages, indicate the port-to-pin
designations from the card's point of view.

Tip:
These tables can help when changing, adding, or removing specific ports in
an existing structure.

Table Legend
Table 5-16 illustrates the Connector-to-Peripheral Card relationship tables.
The table is divided into two major columns. The first applies when the card is
inserted in the even-numbered slots; the second is for cards inserted into the
odd-numbered slots. Each column then divides for the upper or lower connector pins.
The possible connections for each card are marked by the shaded areas.
If the card is inserted in the even-numbered slots, the upper left area will apply.
If the card is inserted in the odd-numbered slots, the lower right area will apply.
Table 5-17 illustrates the Peripheral Card-to-Connector relationship tables.
The possible connections for each cards are highlighted by the shaded areas. The table
I/O Connections Via Champ Connectors For Coral Interface Cards

is divided in two sections: The upper section represent the connections for cards
inserted in even-numbered slots, while the lower section stands for the connections of
cards inserted into the odd-numbered slots.
Each section shows the pins associated with a specific port - group. Given that some of
the peripheral cards can support up to 24 ports, the ports are divided into groups of
eight (for connection purposes only). Thus, each group is associated with either the
upper or lower connector (see sub-columns) and with the 1st, 2nd, or 3rd group of
pins (see rows).
The pins associated with the first two port columns are listed in the right column
while the pins for the last group of ports (left column) are listed in the adjacent
column on their left.

Finding a Specific Peripheral Card's Table


To help identify the peripheral cards, they are listed below in two indexes. The first
index is grouped according to the functional type of each card, the second is in
alpha-numeric order.
For Card Index: Listed by Function Category on page 5-53.

For Card Index: Listed by Alpha-Numerically Order on page 5-55.

Top Panel
The top panel includes ventilation holes that allow warm air from the cage to flow
outwards. Do not block the top panel of the cage. If the ventilation holes are blocked,
heat will not be removed from the cage and the heat build-up could cause a fire. When
two Coral cages are installed one on top of the other, heat from the lower cage is
released through the bottom rear side of the cage above. When other systems are
installed directly above the Coral cage, a heat buffer bracket must be installed. See page
6-29, Mounting Brackets for specific conditions that require this bracket and the number
of brackets supplied per system.

Fire Hazard. The top panel ventilation holes are designed to allow warm air to flow out of
the cage. Placing objects on top of the cage will interfere with the heat dissipation
process and could result in fire.

The ground terminal is used to connect the cage to the master ground unit.
See Figure 6-13.

Odd and Even Slots


Cage Description and Installation

Each universal I/O slot is referred to as an odd slot (1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11) or an even slot (2,
4, 6, 8, 10, 12).

I/O Champ Connectors


Half of the I/O Champ connectors are positioned on the cage rear panel on the top,
and are referred to as the upper connectors. The remaining half connectors are mounted
on the bottom, and are referred to as the lower connectors.
Each Champ connector includes a set of straps that allow the connectors to be secured
in place and prevent them from being inadvertently disconnected. Mating male plugs
should be industry standard (Amphenol, AMPTM, or equivalent). The connectors

provide metallic paths from the peripheral cards to station and trunk equipment
external to the system. The upper and lower champs are generally connected to the

6-12

Coral IPx 800 Installation Manual

MDF while the RJ-45 connectors are generally connected to the LAN or to digital
equipment.

Card Slot to I/O Champ Connector Relationship


Each peripheral card has a maximum of twenty four wire pairs. The twenty four wire
pairs are connected to the top and bottom I/O Champ connectors. Each pair of I/O
Champ connectors (upper and lower) serve two peripheral cards (even and odd).
Figure 6-11 illustrates the card slot to I/O Champ connector relationship. Pair 25 on
each I/O connector is not used.
Figure 6-12 illustrates the layout of I/O connectors for any pair of odd and even
universal I/O slots, as they appear on industry standard, 66 type punch blocks.

6-26

Coral IPx 800 Installation Manual

The connectors provide metallic paths from the cards to the various power and signal
busses of the system and for peripheral cards, to the Input/Output (I/O) connectors.

Power Supply Unit


The Coral IPx 800 cage includes one PS19 AC, DC, or DC-D power supply unit located
on the left side of the cage. The power supply unit is attached to the cage with two
screws that ensure that the unit is grounded. These power supply units are described
in detail in Chapter 7.

Heat Buffer Bracket


This section describes the conditions that necessitate the use of a heat buffer bracket on
the cage. The Coral IPx cage is designed such that cool air flows into the cage from the
ventilation grille at the bottom of the cage door. See Figure 6-31. The free space at the
bottom section of the cage allows cool air to flow into the cage via the ventilation grille
on the door, and then upwards past the cards and power supply. The cool air absorbs
the heat from the circuitry and flows out of the cage via the holes on the top panel.
The top panel must remain clear of objects, as they will interfere with the heat removal
from the cage and could result in a fire.
The bottom panel of the cage is angled such that it forms a gap between the bottom
panel and the top panel of the cage underneath. This gap allows the warm air to be
released. See Figure 6-33 through Figure 6-35. For this reason, whenever a Coral IPx
cage is installed directly above another Coral IPx cage, there is no need to install a heat
buffer bracket. Whenever a Coral IPx cage is NOT installed directly above, a heat
buffer bracket must be installed.
The heat buffer bracket is positioned such that it is impossible to install equipment
directly above the Coral IPx cage. See Figure 6-32. This ensures that a minimum space
of 1U (1.75" or 45 mm) is maintained between the top panel of the Coral IPx cage and
any equipment that may be installed above.

Two Coral IPx Cages Mounted Together


When a Coral IPx 800 cage (cage 1) is installed directly below another Coral IPx 800
cage (cage 2) warm air flows out from the top panel of the cage 1 and through the
bottom of cage 2. See Figure 6-33. For this reason, whenever a Coral IPx 800 cage is
mounted directly above another Coral IPx 800 cage, there is no need to install a heat
buffer bracket between the cages.

Each peripheral card must be recognized by the main shelf. Therefore, the Coral
IPx 800 system must be able to distinguish between the first and second expansion
shelves. The main shelf is designated 0 by the manufacturer. The first expansion shelf
is designated 1. The second expansion shelf is designated 2. Jumpers are used to
configure the shelf number. Figure 6-44 displays the jumper configuration for each cage
designation.
The shelves in a Coral IPx Office system, however, are designated 1, 2, and 3, for the
main unit, first, and second expansion cages, respectively. Therefore, Coral IPx Office
must be able to distinguish between the first and second expansion shelves. The main

Suggestions for Peripheral Card Distribution


When installing a new Coral IPx 800 system, it is recommended that the timeslot (PCM
highway) distribution among the cages and card slots be taken into account when
planning the peripheral interface cards location.
The Coral IPx 800 system (main cage and two expansion cages) is supplied with a total
of 384 timeslots between a maximum of 32 card slots. The timeslots are evenly divided
into 3 groups of 128 timeslots and distributed between slot sets, as detailed in Table 6-8.
Therefore, slots 1-4 of cages 0, 1 and 2 share 128 timeslots, slots 5-8 of cages 0, 1 and 2
share 128 timeslots, and slots 9-12 of cages 0, 1 and 2 share an additional 128 timeslots.
Figure 6-59 illustrates the distribution of PCM highways in Coral IPx 800 systems.
To ensure efficient use of time slots, it is recommended to distribute heavy consumer cards
(cards with a large number of ports: UDT, 30T/x, T1, PRI-30, PRI-24, IPG or UGW) evenly
among the slot sets, i.e. one heavy consumer card per slot set. The least blocking sets are
the slot sets that have the highest ratio of number of timeslots to number of peripheral slots
in Table 6-8.

If three PRI-30 cards are installed, it is recommended that one of them be


installed in any one of slots 9-12, the second card in any one of slots 5-8,
and the last card in any one of slots 1-4.

Optional Coral IPx 500X Expansion Cage


General
The Coral IPx 500X expansion cage is a small, rack or wall-mounted extension to the
Coral IPx 500M or Coral IPx 800M cage. It supports any of the Coral FlexiCom 200 and
IPx 500 family small factor and peripheral cards. Any combination of up to two
IPx 500X and IPx 800X expansion cages can be connected to one IPx 800M cage. The
key features of the IPx 500X cage capacity and functions are described below.

Card Slots
One IPx 500X cage may house ten peripheral special form-factor ipx cards.
These card types are described in detail in Chapter 10 of the Coral IPx 500 Hardware and
Installation Manual.

Port Capacity
One IPx 500X cage supports up to 160 combined trunk and wired station ports.

Power Supply
The expansion unit is compatible with 48VDC or 115/230VAC power. Like the
IPx 500M cage, the expansion cage is either powered by the PS500 AC or PS500 DC

Message and Ring Circuits


The 120VDC and 85VRMS voltages are provided for ringers to drive the ringers and
message waiting lamps of single line telephones connected to SLT ports of the system.

120 VDC for SLT (Single Line Telephone) message waiting lamps

85VRMS for SLT ringers

The current is used for ringing on industry standard, SLT, and magneto telephone
station ports. The ring generator provides high voltage (85VRMS) ring generator
current required by SLT station ports of the 16SH/S-LL, 8SLS, 16SLS, 24SLS, or
8SM cards.

Messaging
The messaging generator is capable of generating 120VDC for message lamps. It is
used to light neon lamps on SLT ports of the 16SH/S-LL, 8SLS, 16SLS, or 24SLS
cards.

Power Supplies

7-5

PS19 DC Power Supply Unit

Ring Generator
The ring generator is capable of generating ringing for up to 20 ports simultaneously
at 20Hz or at 25Hz. The ringing frequency is selected with the JU1 configuration
jumper on the PS19 DC circuit board. See page 7-8, Ringer Frequency Adjustment.

-48VDC Output Power


The PS19 DC also filters and limits the 48VDC input to feed the peripheral card
slots.

Ripple and Noise


Filtering circuitry minimizes ripple and noise on the 48VDC feed to the peripheral
cards. The filtering circuitry produces an output voltage approximately 1.5V to 2.0V
lower than the input voltage to the PS19 DC.

Monitoring Circuitry
All outputs, with the exception of the 48VDC output, are regulated. Voltage and
current level monitoring circuitry check each output of the PS19 DC (including
message and ring generator currents), and produce an alarm signal to the Coral system
main processor in the event of malfunction.
Monitoring circuitry verifies that each voltage output (with the exception of the
48VDC output) is within specification. If any of the voltage outputs drop below
specification, the monitoring circuitry produces an alarm signal to the Coral system
processor, causing the red Alarm indicator to illuminate. Note that the green Power
indicator of the PS19 DC remains illuminated at the same time as the red alarm
indicator.

PS19 DC Power Supply Unit

If the Input voltage drops below 36.51VDC, the unit shuts down and returns to power
only when the voltage increases above 38.51VDC again. Additionally, if the voltage
is greater than 621VDC, then the unit shuts down until the input voltage drops below
581VDC.

4.

Verify on the cage rear panel that the POWER SUPPLY DUPLICATION connector
is not in use.

Connecting the POWER SUPPLY DUPLICATION connector (located on the cage rear
panel) for PS19 DC power supplies will result in damage to the system. This connector
is only used with the PS19 DC-D power supply, see page 7-28, Connecting the Power
Supply Duplication Cable between Two Cages. Do not use this connector when the
PS19 DC power supply is installed.

5.

Verify that the PS19 DC power switch is turned OFF.

Do not insert or remove the power supply unit from the cage when turned ON.
Sudden power surges could damage system components.

6.

Position the two guide ridges (located on the right panel of the power supply, at
slot (labeled on the bottom of the card cage).

7.

Slide the PS19 DC gently but firmly, until fully inserted into the card cage. A slight
resistance should be felt as the multi-pin connectors engage at the rear of the
power supply and backplane.
Do not force the power supply into the card cage. Irreparable damage may occur
if the multi-pin connectors misalign while attempting to insert the unit into the
card cage. If more than slight resistance is encountered, partially slide out the card
from the cage and verify the alignment of the guide ridges with the card edge
guides. If alignment appears to be correct, remove the card from the slot and
inspect the multi-pin connectors for bent pins and debris in the pin holes.

Troubleshooting (PS19 DC)


Power supply failure generally results in the loss of one or more output voltages.
However, protection circuitry in the power supply regulator circuitry may shut down
a regulator due to a current overload caused by an external fault.
The red Alarm indicator on the front panel of the PS19 DC lights when any of the
output voltages are below specification and/or when either the F1 or F2 fuse blows.

The red Alarm indicator illuminates if any voltage supplied by the power
supply is outside of specification. This could be caused by an internal or
external fault. If the alarm indicator illuminates in a replaced power supply,
the fault is not within the unit.

All maintenance activities are to be carried out by a qualified service technician.


The red Alarm indicator can be activated by malfunctions in the backplane, the power
supply, in any of the cards inserted into the cage, or in any of the above in a connected
cage.

Power Supply turned ON - Green Power Indicator is OFF


Check the following:
1.

DC power supply interruption (Range: 40 to 60 VDC).

2.

Blown main or circuit fuse/breaker in the building electrical panel.

3.

Blown fuse in the cage rear panel.

4.

Faulty PS19 DC.

Coral IPx 800 Installation Manual

PS19 DC Fuses
The PS19 DC employs two fuses, F1 and F2, to protect the message and ringing
circuitry respectively.

If the F1 fuse blows, the message lamps for the SLT units connected via this
cage do not light.

If the F2 fuse blows, none of the SLT units connected via this cage can ring.

If the cage rear panel fuse blows, the PS19 DC Power green indicator and
Alarm red indicator do not illuminate.

To replace a fuse within the PS19 DC


1.

Remove the power supply unit from its slot and place it over the anti-static
material with the component side facing upwards, as described on page 7-10,
Removing the Power Supply.

Do not insert or remove the power supply unit from the cage when turned ON. Sudden
power surges could damage system components.

2.

Replace only with the same type and rating of fuse. See the PS19 DC card layout
in Figure 7-2.

Determining the Cause of the Alarm Indicator


1.

Turn the PS19 DC power switch OFF (turn the switch downwards).

2.

Disconnect the expansion cable(s) connected to the relevant cage.

3.

Remove all cards from the relevant cage so that they protrude from the cage by
approximately 1 inch (2.5 cm).

4.

Turn ON the PS19 DC and check the red Alarm indicator.

If the Alarm indicator is lit, either the PS19 DC is malfunctioning or the


problem is caused by the backplane. Replace the PS19 DC unit.

If the Alarm indicator is not lit, the unit is functioning properly and the alarm
is being caused by one of the cards.

5.

For cages that include common control cards (see table below).
Cage

Control Cards

IPx 800M

MEX-IP, HDC

IPx 800X

PX

To determine which control card is causing the problem, turn the PS19 DC power
switch OFF again (turn the switch downwards) and re-insert the first control card.
Then turn the PS19 DC power switch ON and check the red Alarm indicator.
Continue this process, adding one common control card at a time, and turning
OFF the PS19 DC power switch before inserting each card. Turn the PS19 DC
power switch ON and check the red Alarm indicator after inserting each card. If
the red Alarm indicator is lit, the last card inserted is causing the problem and
should be replaced.
Turn the PS19 DC power switch OFF, insert the common control cards (MEX-IP,
HDC, or PX). Then turn the PS19 DC power switch ON and check the red Alarm
indicator once again. If the red Alarm indicator is off, the problem is caused by
PS19 DC Power Supply Unit

one of the cards that was removed.


6.

To determine which shared service and peripheral card is causing the problem,
insert the cards into their appropriate slots, one at a time, beginning from the right
side of the cage. Ensure that the cards rear panel connectors engage properly with
the backplane and that they initialize properly.

If the Alarm indicator lights when one of the cards is inserted, then that card is

faulty.

Power Supply Unit with Duplication

General Description
The DC duplication power supply (PS19 DC-D) provides internal operating voltages
for the Coral IPx 800, 3000 and 4000 systems.
The PS19 DC-D operates from a nominal input of 48VDC, typically supplied by an
external 48VDC rectifier or stationary battery plant. Actual input may vary from
40 to 60 volts, allowing operation;

From external battery power source while the batteries are charged at an
equalized charge rate

During a power failure, until the batteries are completely discharged

Each PS19 DC-D is designed with the capacity to support two fully populated cages
with average mix of port types. The PS19 DC-D employs automatic switching
circuitry to share the output between two cages for redundancy purposes. The
PS19 DC-D may be used in any one of the following three configurations supporting
the cards in the cages:
Configuration

Description

Economical

One power supply supporting two adjacent cages via the


H719 DC-D connection cable, see Figure 7-7.

Redundant

Two power supplies supporting two adjacent cages,


providing redundancy for both cages via the H719 DC-D
connection cable between the two cages. See Figure 7-8.

Double Power

One power supply for each cage, powering only its own
cage (no cable). Installing one PS19 DC-D in each cage
enables greater power support among the cards of the
same cage. See Figure 7-9.

message waiting lamps of single line telephones connected to SLT ports of the system.

120VDC for SLT (Single Line Telephone) message waiting lamps

85VRMS for SLT ringers

Ring Generator
The ring generator is capable of generating ringing up to 33 ports simultaneously at
20Hz or at 25Hz. The ringing frequency is configured by setting jumper J3 on the
PS19 DC-D circuit board, see page 7-25, Ringer Frequency Adjustment.
The current is used for ringing on industry standard, single-line telephones (SLT), and
magneto telephone station ports and provides the high voltage (85VRMS) ring
generator current required by SLT station ports of the 16SH/S-LL, 8SLS, 16SLS,
24SLS, or 8SM cards.

Messaging
The messaging generator is capable of generating -120VDC for message lamps. It is
used to light neon lamps on SLT ports of the 16SH/S-LL, 8SLS, 16SLS, or 24SLS
cards.

7-22

Coral IPx 800 Installation Manual

48VDC

Output Power

The PS19 DC-D also filters and limits the 48VDC input to feed the peripheral card
slots.

Ripple and Noise


Filtering circuitry minimizes ripple and noise on the 48VDC feed to the peripheral
cards. The filtering circuitry produces an output voltage approximately 1.5V to 2V
lower than the input voltage to the PS19 DC-D.

Hot Swap Circuitry (Redundant Configuration)


The PS19 DC-D contains Hot Swap circuitry for redundancy purposes, so that if one
among two connected PS19 DC-D units fails, the second unit may take over the
power supply production.

Monitoring Circuitry
All outputs, with the exception of the 48VDC output, are regulated.

Monitoring circuitry verifies that each voltage output (with the exception of the
48VDC output) is within specification. If any voltage deviates from specification, the
monitoring circuitry produces an alarm signal to the Coral system processor, causing
the red Alarm indicator to light. Note that the green Power indicator of a PS19 DC-D
remains lit at the same time as the red Alarm indicator.

If the voltage input drops below 36.51VDC the unit shuts down and returns to power
only when the voltage raises above 38.51VDC again. Additionally, if the voltage is
greater than 620.5VDC, then the unit shuts down until the input voltage drops below
580.5VDC.

PS19 DC-D Power Supply Unit with Duplication

Voltage and current level monitoring circuitry check each output of the PS19 DC-D
(including message and ring generator currents), and produce an alarm signal to the
Coral system main processor in the event of malfunction.

separately by the customer.

PS19 DC-D Power Supply Unit with Duplication

The following two configurations are possible when the connection cable is used:

Configuration

Description

Economical

One PS19 DC-D can supply power to two adjacent cages


by connecting an H719 DC-D cable from the backplane
of the one cage to the POWER SUPPLY DUPLICATION
connector on the adjacent cage. See Figure 7-7.

Redundant

One PS19 DC-D can be installed on each of two adjacent


cages to provide power supply redundancy. An H719
DC-D cable is connected between both cages, in the
same manner as above. In this type of configuration, if
one of the power supplies fail, the other unit supplies
power to both cages and no calls are lost. This
configuration is depicted in Figure 7-8.

Connecting the POWER SUPPLY DUPLICATION connector (located on the cage rear
panel) for PS19 DC or PS19 AC power supplies will result in damage to the system.
This connector is only used with the PS19 DC-D power supply. Do not use this
connector when the PS19 DC or PS19 AC power supplies are installed.

Tip:
Using H719 cable requires 30A/125V slow blow fuse on the cage rear panel.
In old versions of the Coral IPx systems replace the 15A/125V S.B. fuse with

a 30A/125V S.B. fuse.

Ringer Database Programming


Max Ringers (Route: SFE,2)
The maximum number of SLTs which can be fed ring generators simultaneously from
each PS19 DC-D is 33. By default, however, its value in the Coral database is set to
20. This default value can be altered via the Coral PI databases System Features
(Route: SFE,2) branch, by changing the system-wide MAX_RING parameter value.
See Chapter 6 of the Program Interface and Database Reference Manual for further
details.

Defining Ringer Shelf Number (Route: RPS)


The ringer power supply (RINGER PS) definition in the PI database of the RPS branch
must be defined to reflect the actual power supply hardware setup per cage. The
(RINGER PS) default definitions are set up for Double Power configurations. For the
Economical and Redundant Power configurations, the RINGER PS definition per
cage must be updated to reflect the actual system setup - especially when increasing
MAX_RING.

PS19 DC-D Power Supply Unit with Duplication

When a PS19 DC-D supplies power to SLT ringers located on two adjacent cages
(Redundant or Economical configurations), the two adjacent cages must share the
same RINGER PS definition, via the Coral database (Route: RPS).

See Chapter 6 Ringers, of the Coral Program Interface & Database Reference
Manual for details on the parameter definitions.

Coral IPx 800 Installation Manual

Troubleshooting (PS19 DC-D)


Power supply failure generally results in the loss of one or more output voltages.
However, protection circuitry in the power supply regulator circuitry may shut down
a regulator because of a current overload caused by an external fault.
The red Alarm indicator on the front panel of the PS19 DC-D lights when any of the
output voltages are outside of specification. This may be caused by internal or external
faults. The technician must isolate the problem and replace the faulty unit when
necessary, see below.

The red Alarm indicator illuminates if any voltage supplied by the power
supply is outside of specification. This could be caused by an internal or
external fault. If the alarm indicator illuminates in a replaced power supply,
the fault is not within the unit.

All maintenance activities are to be carried out by a qualified service technician.


The red Alarm indicator can be activated by malfunctions in the backplane, the power
supply, in any of the cards inserted into the cage, or in any of the above in a connected
cage.

If one of the units is faulty, while the second unit is functioning properly, then
the red (ALARM) lit unit is at fault and should be replaced.

If both units have the red ALARM indicator lit, then both shelves are not
functioning properly and the problem must be isolated to either both the units
or one of the peripheral shelf cards.

Alternatively, the PS19 DC-D unit may not light any Power or Alarm indicator and
shut down. Following the shutdown of a P19 DC-D unit, the F1 fuse within the
PS19 DC-D or the fuse on the rear panel cage should be replaced. If this does not
restore the unit, then the unit should be replaced.

Determining the Cause of the Alarm Indicator


The red Alarm indicator can be activated by malfunctions in the PS19 DC-D or one
of the peripheral shelf cards. The Troubleshooting procedures for a lit Alarm indicator
are described below, depending on the PS19 DC-D usage: Redundant, Double Power
or Economical.

Double Power PS19 DC-D Configuration


For a single PS19 DC-D supplying power only to its own cage the peripheral
cards must be individually examined.
1.

Turn the PS19 DC-D power switch OFF (turn the switch downwards).

2.

Disconnect the expansion cable(s) connected to the relevant cage.

3.

Remove all cards from the relevant cage so that they protrude from the cage by
approximately 1 inch (2.5 cm).

4.

Switch ON the PS19 DC-D and check the red Alarm indicator.

If the Alarm indicator is lit, either the PS19 DC-D is malfunctioning or the
problem is caused by the backplane. Replace the PS19 DC-D unit.

If the Power indicator lights but the Alarm indicator is not lit, the unit is
functioning properly and the alarm is being caused by one of the cards.

To determine which control card is causing the problem, turn the PS19 DC-D
power switch OFF again (turn the switch downwards), re-insert the control card.
Then turn the PS19 DC-D power switch ON, and check the red Alarm indicator.
Continue this process, adding one common control card at a time, and turning
OFF the PS19 DC-D power switch before inserting each card. Turn the PS19 DC-D
power switch ON and check the red Alarm indicator after inserting each card. If
the red Alarm indicator is lit on, the last card inserted is causing the problem and
should be replaced.
Turn the PS19 DC-D power switch OFF, insert the common control cards (MEX-IP,
HDC, or PX). Then turn the PS19 DC-D power switch ON and check the red
Alarm indicator once again. If the red Alarm indicator is off, the problem is
caused by one of the cards that was removed.

Ring Generator
The ring generator is capable of generating ringing up to 20 ports simultaneously at
20Hz or at 25Hz. The ringing frequency is configured by setting jumper J2 on the
PS19 AC circuit board. See page 7-45, Ringer Frequency Adjustment.
The current is used for ringing on industry standard, SLTs, and magneto telephone
station ports and provides the high voltage (85VRMS) ring generator current required

Messaging
The messaging generator is capable of generating of -120VDC for message lamps. It is

used to light neon lamps on SLT ports of the 16SH/S-LL, 8SLS, 16SLS, or 24SLS cards.

Monitoring Circuitry
The PS19 AC also limits the 48VDC output to feed the peripheral card slots.
All outputs, with the exception of the 48 VDC output, are regulated.
Voltage and current level monitoring circuitry checks each output of the PS19 AC
(including message and ring generator currents), and produces an alarm signal to the
Coral system main processor in the event of malfunction.
Monitoring circuitry verifies that each voltage output is within specification. If any
voltage deviates from specification, the monitoring circuitry produces an alarm signal
to the Coral system processor, causing the red alarm indicator to illuminate. Note that
the green power indicator of a PS19 AC remains illuminated at the same time as the
red alarm indicator.

3 Ringer Frequency Adjustment


The PS19 AC can supply either 20Hz or 25Hz ringing frequency by configuring
Jumper J2 located on the bottom left component side card panel. See Figure 7-11. This
jumper is configured by the manufacturer according to local requirements. However, it
can be configured in the field. The procedure is as follows:

1.

Remove the power supply unit from its slot and place it over the anti-static
material with the component side facing upwards, as described in page 7-47,
Removing the Power Supply.

Do not insert or remove the PS19 AC unit from the cage when turned ON. Sudden
power surges could damage system components.

4 Installation
The PS19 AC power supply is inserted into the Coral IPx cage in the extreme left slot.
Before installing the power supply, verify that the ring frequency configuration jumper
is set to the correct frequency (20Hz or 25Hz). See the table on page 7-45, Ringer
Frequency Adjustment.

Installing the Power Supply


1.

Verify on the cage rear panel that the POWER SUPPLY DUPLICATION connector
is not in use.

Connecting the POWER SUPPLY DUPLICATION connector (located on the cage rear
panel) for PS19 AC power supplies will result in damage to the system. This connector
is only used with the PS19 DC-D power supply, see page 7-28, Connecting the Power
Supply Duplication Cable between Two Cages. Do not use this connector when the
PS19 AC power supply is installed.

2.

Verify that the PS19 AC power switch is turned OFF.

Inserting the PS19 AC power supply card into the cage when the power switch is ON
could result in a sudden surge voltage that could damage the Coral IPx system. Before
inserting the PS19 AC card, verify that the power switch is turned OFF.

3.

Position the two guide ridges (located on the right panel of the power supply, at

PS19 AC Power Supply Unit

the top and bottom) into the card edge guides corresponding to the POWER
SUPPLY label on the bottom of the cage slot.
4.

Slide the power supply gently but firmly, until fully inserted into the card cage. A
slight resistance should be felt as the multi-pin connectors engage at the rear of
the power supply and backplane.
Do not force the unit into the slot. Irreparable damage may occur if the multi-pin
connectors misalign while you attempt to insert the unit. If more than slight
resistance is encountered, partially slide the unit out of the card cage and verify
the alignment of the guide ridges with the unit edge guides. If alignment appears

to be correct, remove the unit from the slot and inspect the multi-pin connectors
for bent pins and debris in the pin holes.

7-46

Coral IPx 800 Installation Manual

5.

Secure the PS19 AC to the card cage by fastening the two captive screws, located
at the top and bottom of the PS19 AC to the cage. See Figure 7-10.

6.

Turn the power switch ON, and verify that the green Power indicator is lit, while
the red Alarm indicator is not lit.

Turn ON the PS19 AC units in the expansion cages only after powering the Main Cage
(IPx 800M) and verifying that the Main Cage has initialized properly and the alarm
indicator does not illuminate. Otherwise the cards in the expansion cages (IPx 800X)
may not initialize.

Removing the Power Supply


1.

Locate a desk or table top that can support 50 lb (23kg). If the surface can be
damaged by sharp objects, place a protective sheet of cardboard or similar
material over the top surface.

2.

Place an anti-static sheet over a desk or a table top (the cards plastic shipping bag
will suffice).

3.

Turn the PS19 AC power supply switch OFF (turn the switch downwards).

Do not remove the PS19 AC unit from the cage when turned ON. Sudden power surges
could damage system components. Before extracting the PS19 AC card, verify that the
power switch is turned OFF.

4.

Unfasten the two captive screws on the front panel of the PS19 AC. See Figure

6 Troubleshooting (PS19 AC)

Power supply failure generally results in the loss of one or more output voltages.
However, protection circuitry in the power supply regulator circuitry may shut down a
regulator due to a current overload caused by an external fault.
The red Alarm indicator on the front panel of the PS19 AC lights when any of the
output voltages are outside of specification.

The red Alarm indicator illuminates if any voltage supplied by the power
supply is outside of specification. This could be caused by an internal or
external fault. If the alarm indicator illuminates in a replaced power supply,
the fault is not within the unit.
All maintenance activities are to be carried out by a qualified service technician.
The red Alarm indicator can be activated by malfunctions in the backplane, the power
supply, in any of the cards inserted into the cage, or in any of the above in a connected
cage.

Determining the Cause of the Red Alarm Indicator


1.

Turn the PS19 AC power switch OFF (turn the switch downwards).

2.

Disconnect the expansion cable(s) connected to the relevant cage.

3.

Remove all cards from the relevant cage so that they protrude from the cage by
approximately 1 inch (2.5 cm).

4.

Turn ON the PS19 AC and check the red Alarm indicator.

If the Alarm indicator is lit, either the


PS19 AC is malfunctioning (replace as described in page 7-46, Installation.)
or the problem is caused by the backplane (contact the manufacturer).

If the Alarm indicator is not lit, the unit is functioning properly and the alarm
is being caused by one of the cards.

General Information
The Common Control portion of the Coral IPx 800 systems provides the control
mechanism for establishing audio and data connections or calls between Peripheral
I/O ports in the system via the PCM bus. Common Control is divided into the
following functions:

Main Processor

Generic Feature Memory

Database Memory

IMC8 Control

Peripheral Bus Interface or Group Controller

The Common Control card set consists of an MEX-IP Main Processor and Database
Memory, one IMC8 generic feature memory baby card, an optional DBX Database
memory eXpansion card with an optional CLA card, an HDC (High Density Group
Controller), and a PX card.
The MEX-IP and HDC cards reside in designated card slots in the IPx 800M cage. The
CLA and DBX cards are smaller baby cards that are mounted on the MEX-IP card. The
IMC8 card resides in a special slot in front of the MEX-IP card. The card slot
designation appears below each common control card slot on the front of the card
cage. For more information, see Chapter 6 - Cage Description.
The MEX-IP card is the core of the Coral common control. The card contains the
database memory (protected against power loss with a long-life lithium standby
battery). It also provides a real-time clock and hosts the System Authorization Unit
(SAU). Additionally, the MEX-IP acts as a mother card to one CLA card or up to four
DBX cards. The main processor receives status messages from ports in the system and
determines the appropriate response based on programming entries contained in the
system database.
The IMC8 card provides memory space for the generic feature software of the Coral

Common Control Cards

main processor circuitry, memory management circuitry, local bus interface and

IPx 800 systems. The generic feature software determines the operation of telephony
functions of the system. The IMC8 uses flash memory technology to provide

Common Control Cards

8-1

high-reliability, non-volatile storage for the generic software and system database,
combined with the capability of field software upgrade.
The DBX is an optional card that expands the database memory space, which stores
the system's configuration. The DBX is generally not required. It is likely to be
required in special applications (see page 8-31, When is a DBX card required?) or when
the CoraLINK with CLA card is implemented.
The CLA (CoraLINK Adapter) card is used for FlexCT CTI (Computer Telephone
Interface) applications. The optional CLA card incorporates the Application Processor
and Ethernet 10Base-T interface circuitry for the CoraLINK computer-telephony
integration (CTI) link. CoraLINK uses TCP/IP protocol and complies with ECMA 179
and 180 standards. CoraLINK also supports the Novell TSAPI protocol, the Intel

Card Handling Procedures

All circuit cards, including Common Control cards, Shared Service cards, and
Peripheral cards, contain static-sensitive circuitry and may be damaged or destroyed by
Electrostatic Discharge (ESD). Always wear a static dissipating wrist strap connected to
the system cabinet or card cage while handling circuit cards. Hold circuit cards by their
edges and avoid touching contact surfaces. Handle with care and do not drop.

Never place a Common Control card in a slot other than the one designated for that
card.
Never insert a Common Control card with power applied. Irreparable damage may
occur if a Common Control card is placed in an incorrect slot with power applied.

Inserting a Coral Circuit Card


The system cabinet is equipped with an anti-static wrist strap at the top, above the
card cage. This wrist strap should be worn while inserting, removing, or handling any
card in the system. Each card is shipped inside an anti-static plastic bag. Cards should
be kept in this bag whenever handling is not required.
To insert a circuit card into a card slot, grasp the card with both hands, fingers on the
top and bottom of the front panel. Verify that the card is oriented correctly (red
diagnostic indicator on front panel toward top of card). Align the edges of the circuit
card with the card edge guides in the card cage or shelf, and gently slide the card
straight into the card slot. A slight resistance will be felt as the multi-pin connectors on
the circuit card meet mating connectors on the backplane and engage. Push against the
extractor levers until the front panel of the card is flush with the front frame of the
card cage. Do not force the circuit card into the slot. If more than slight resistance is
encountered, remove the circuit card and examine the connectors for bent pins or
interfering debris.

Main Processor Unit


(Discontinued, replaced by MEX-IP2)

General Description

Inserting or removing the MEX-IP control card when power is applied could damage the
card. Before inserting or removing the MEX-IP control card, verify that the PS19 unit
power toggle switch is turned OFF.

The main control processor card for Coral IPx 800 systems, the MEX-IP card (Figure
8-1) provides RS-232E programming and maintenance interface, Software
Authorization Unit (SAU), and IMC8 interface. The MEX-IP contains multi-pin
connectors and support circuitry for the addition of CLA and DBX baby cards. It
integrates the main processor, memory management circuitry, local bus interface,
real-time clock, generic feature software memory, and database memory.
The MEX-IP supervises overall system operation by executing system-wide processes.
These processes include port connection management, feature management, generic
feature software installation, feature authorization, configuration database
management, database backup and restoration, program interface input/output and

Port Management
In order to manage port connections and feature operation, the main processor
communicates through the HDC card, via the HDLC buses, with the local card
processors on each peripheral card both in the main and in the expansion cabinet(s).
The main processor receives status messages from the card processors regarding port
activity. It determines the appropriate response based on the programming entries
contained in the system database. The main processor then instructs the appropriate
card processor what action to take with each port.

Memory Management
All system memory resides on the MEX-IP card. Random Access Memory (RAM) is
located directly on the MEX-IP card. The MEX-IP also supports the CLA and DBX
baby memory cards. The DBX contains 1MB of Static Random Access Memory (SRAM)
expansion memory.
Flash memory, located on the IMC8 card, stores the generic feature software which
determines the operation of the system. RAM, both on the MEX-IP and on the DBX
expansion cards, stores the system configuration database, and is used as a run
memory for general purposes.
Database memory and real-time clock functions in the Coral system are protected from
power loss by long-life lithium backup batteries. Such a battery is installed both on the
MEX-IP and on each DBX card. A monitoring circuit on each card constantly measures
the voltage level of its battery. It signals the main processor when the remaining
energy stored in any battery approaches the point that it can no longer provide
sufficient power to maintain the memory circuitry.
The generic feature software and feature authorization information is installed and
updated into the IMC8, using FMprog PC-utility. Similarly, the system database is
regularly backed up to, and may be transferred and restored from, an IMC8 card kept
in the IMC8 drive.

The Program Interface Facility


The PI (Program Interface) provides a text-based facility for reviewing and changing
the system configuration and database. It enables the performance and monitor of
diagnostic routines. The PI can be accessed either via a simple data terminal or by a
personal computer.
The PI and CoralVIEW CVA/CVD/CVT can be accessed via an RS-232E data terminal
port (KB0) provided on the MEX-IP front panel (see Figure 8-3), or via an additional

MEX-IP Card Main Processor Unit

RS-232 port provided on an RMI/8DRCM/8DRCF peripheral card.

Common Control Cards

8-7

Software Authorization Management


The MEX-IP supervises the feature authorization using the SAU (Software
Authorization Unit) lock device. The SAU is a small, encapsulated device that is
plugged into a front panel connector on the MEX-IP. Figure 8-2 illustrates four views of
the SAU.
The SAU enables a set of permissions and feature authorizations associated with its
unique identification number. The Coral software detects and verifies the permission
settings of the SAU on the Control card (MEX-IP) enabling the system to function
properly.
During software installation, the SAU serial number is compared with the features
authorization data, to verify the authorized use of enhanced Coral system features.
During regular system operation, the SAU is checked to ensure that it remains attached to
the MEX-IP card. However, if necessary, the SAU can be removed for short periods (a
maximum of two weeks) without interrupting system operation. If the SAU is removed
for more than two weeks, the system ceases to process calls.

The Coral system automatically ceases call processing after 14 days for any of the
following reasons:

The SAU serial number does not match the corresponding IMC8 SAU serial number.

The Coral generic version contained in the IMC8 is higher than is authorized by the SAU.

An SAU is removed from the MEX-IP front panel.

Relevant system messages appear on the PI, warning that the system will not operate

Replacing a MEX-IP card necessitates removing the SAU from the old card and installing

DBX Memory Card Installation


The DBX card is an expansion card of memory. It adds an additional 1 MB SRAM to
the Coral system main control. The card is equipped with an extension connector on
its top side, allowing for another DBX or CLA card to be connected on top of it.
Figure 8-5 illustrates the location of the memory interface connectors. The first DBX
card must be located at J1. DBX cards (if installed) may be located at the memory
extension connector at J1 or J2. Each DBX card is equipped with an extension
connector on their top side, which extends the memory interface connector from the
MEX-IP card. Each MEX-IP memory interface connector can support two memory
cards by stacking one memory card onto the extension connector of another.
The MEX-IP supports up to four DBX cards or one CLA and three DBX cards.
The DBX cards use a lithium battery to operate. When the battery voltage is low, the
diagnostic software displays a warning message, stating that the battery of either the
upper or the lower memory card needs to be replaced. The DBX connected directly to
the MEX-IP is the lower memory card, while the DBX connected on top of the first
one is referred to as the upper memory card.

Once the system database has been installed, the position of DBX cards
(J1, J2, upper and/or lower) on the MEX-IP card must not be changed.
Doing so will cause the Coral system to malfunction.

Before installing the MEX-IP card, verify that the protective battery insulator has been
removed on both the MEX-IP battery and the battery of any DBX baby card installed
on the MEX-IP card. Figure 8-5 identifies the location of the battery holder and
MEX-IP Card Main Processor Unit

illustrates the insulator removal.


See page 8-29, DBX General Information, for detailed information about DBX cards.

CLA Card Installation


The CLA card may be installed using the memory card interface connector J1 on the
MEX-IP card. The CLA is installed as the upper card at the memory extension

connector on the first DBX. See page 8-37, CLA Module for details.

Removal of DBX/CLA Card


Locate a desk or table capable of supporting 50 pounds (23kg). If the top surface might
be damaged by sharp objects, place a protective sheet of cardboard or similar material
over the top surface. Next, place an anti-static sheet (the card's plastic shipping bag
will suffice) over the desk or tabletop. Now lay the MEX-IP flat, over the anti-static
material.

CLA Removal
The CoraLINK hardware (when required) consists of a CLA card. If used, the CLA
card should be located at MEX-IP memory connector J1. Two (2) Phillips screws secure
the CLA panel to the MEX-IP panel. Four (4) nylon machine screws secure the CLA to
standoff spacers on the MEX-IP.
1.

Remove these six screws and set them aside.

2.

Stand the MEX-IP on a flat surface with the front panel facing back.

3.

Place thumbs on the MEX-IP card, on either side of the CLA near the MEX-IP
front panel. Use your fingers to lift the edge of the CLA card on both sides, gently
disengaging the multi-pin connector on the CLA from the MEX-IP connector J1.

DBX Removal
Most Coral systems do not require a DBX card. If equipped, the first DBX card should
be located at MEX-IP memory connector J1. Two (2) nylon machine screws secure the
DBX to standoff spacers on the MEX-IP. Using the same procedure described above,

Coral IPx 800 Installation Manual

10 Lithium Battery Condition Testing


A new lithium battery can maintain power to the MEX-IP memory circuitry and
real-time clock for approximately 90 days. The battery is not recharged by the system
power. Thus, if the battery has powered the memory and real-time clock for an
extended period and near depletion is suspected, the contents of the memory must be
backed up, and the battery must be replaced. The internal diagnostic procedure will
cause a "b" to appear on the 7 segment display of the MEX-IP front panel, indicating
that the battery should be replaced.
The battery voltage, tested under load, can be used to determine its state of charge.
Voltage measured across an unused battery connected to the memory circuitry should
fall between 3.30 and 3.35 volts. If the voltage measured across a battery is less than
2.50 volts, the battery must be replaced.
For first time use, release the protective battery insulator. See Figure 8-5.

Replacing the Lithium Battery


1.

Carefully lift the battery with your thumbnail.

Do not use any metal tool to release or insert the battery. Doing so could result in a
short circuit and damage the battery.

Insert the new battery with the + (positive) symbol appearing on top.

11 MEX-IP Status Display Codes


The MEX-IP numeric status display indicates various operating and error states of the
Coral system, and can provide valuable information to assist in the maintenance of the
system. Table 8-3 lists the various status indications and their corresponding meaning.
A . (dot) appears during normal system operation.
A "0" appears on the status display whenever the system is off-line for maintenance
testing, or to install or update the generic software.
A "b" in the status display indicates that a backup battery on the MEX-IP or on a DBX
card no longer has sufficient energy to maintain the memory circuitry if system power
is lost. Each time a programming session is started from the PI, any faulty battery is
identified. The system database should be saved as soon as possible to an IMC8 unit,
and the faulty battery must be replaced as soon as the system can be shut down, to
ensure continued system reliability.
An "E" indicates that the main processor has been interrupted to prevent database
corruption during a power fluctuation. This condition should clear itself momentarily.
An L indicates that the SAU cannot be detected at the SAU port on the front panel
of the MEX-IP. Generally, this indicates that the device is no longer present or is not
securely fastened to the MEX-IP.
A P appears during software installation or backup.

Do not remove the IMC8 card from the MEX-IP when P is illuminated! Doing so might
damage the IMC8 data.

likely to be accompanied by considerable system malfunction. Should an error


indication appear not to affect system operation, save the database to DB0.DEF
immediately. Follow the instructions in chapter 4 of this manual.
When the system can be restarted without disrupting service, press the INT push
button followed by the RST push button on the front panel of the MEX-IP.

Pressing INT or RST interrupts all calls in progress and causes the system to initialize,
possibly discarding the database information stored in the database memory and

DBX General Information


The DBX memory expansion card is a component of the Coral IPx 800M Common
Control main cages. The DBX incorporates 1MB of Static Random Access Memory
(SRAM), used to store the configuration database of a Coral system, equipped with
MEX-IP or MCP-IPx cards. The DBX is an optional card that expands the database
memory space. The configuration database determines the individual characteristics of
a particular installation site. Figure 8-9 illustrates the DBX card layout.

SRAM devices require a constant source of power to retain their contents. Power to
maintain the memory is ordinarily provided by the Coral system in which the DBX is
installed. However, the DBX also contains an on-board lithium battery that provides
continuous power to the memory circuitry during the absence of system power. A
battery monitor circuit signals the Main Processor when the remaining Electrical
Power stored in the lithium back-up battery has exhausted to a level that can no
longer support the memory circuitry.
The DBX does not occupy a card slot within the Coral system cabinet. Rather, it is
installed as a baby card onto a memory interface connector on the MEX-IP Main
Processor card. DBX cards may be installed at two memory interface connectors on the
MEX-IP card either J1 or J2. Figure 8-10 illustrates the location of the two memory
interface connectors on the MEX-IP card. Note that MEX-IP connector J1 is reserved for
the first DBX card installed in the Coral system.
The DBX card is equipped with an extension connector on the top side that extends
the memory interface connector from the MEX-IP card. Each MEX-IP memory interface
connector can support two memory cards by stacking one memory card onto the
extension connector of another. When a DBX card is installed in the extension
connector of another DBX card, the memory card installed on the MEX-IP is referred to
as the lower memory card, and the DBX installed on the extension connector is
referred to as the upper memory card.
The CLA, when installed, is stacked on top of the first DBX card at J1.
If required, DBX may be installed as either the lower and upper memory card at J2. Up
to four DBX cards, or up to three DBX cards and one CLA card can be installed on the
MEX-IP card.
Most Coral systems do not require a DBX at all. Special applications may require a
DBX Module Database Expansion Memory Card

single DBX, and rarely would any system configuration require more than one DBX
card.

Once the system database has been installed, the position of DBX cards
(J1, J2, upper and/or lower) on the MEX-IP card must not be changed.

Doing so will cause the Coral system to malfunction.

front side. Use your fingers to lift the edge of the DBX card on both sides, gently
disengaging the multi-pin connector on the DBX from MEX-IP connectors J1 or J2.

Lithium Battery Condition Testing


A new lithium battery has sufficient energy to maintain power to the DBX memory
circuitry for approximately 90 days. The battery is not recharged however, when
system power returns. Thus, if the battery has powered the memory for an extended
period and low battery capacity is suspected, the contents of the memory should be
backed up and the battery replaced.
The battery voltage, tested under load, can be used to determine its state of charge.
Voltage measured across a new battery connected to the memory circuitry should fall
between 3.30 and 3.35 volts. If the voltage measured across a cylindrical battery is less
than 2.50 volts, the battery should be replaced.

DBX Module Database Expansion Memory Card

Replacing the Lithium Battery


In the following procedure, do not apply too much pressure to the battery holder clip
as this could cause the clip to snap.
1.

Carefully raise the battery holder clip.

2.

Insert the new battery with the + (positive) symbol appearing on top.

Explosion and Environmental Hazards.


There is a danger of explosion if the battery is replaced incorrectly.

General Description
The CLA (CoraLINK Adapter) appears in various configurations:

CLA 386 (10Base-2 via Coax) [this type has been discontinued]

CLA 486 (10Base-T via RJ-45)

CLA 686 (10/100Base-T via RJ-45) with a Compact Flash memory card

The CLA cards are shown in Figure 8-11 and Figure 8-12.
The CoraLINK is a Computer-Telephony Integration (CTI) Link for the Coral system
that provides an Open Architecture Interface (OAI) to the call processing and
management circuitry. CoraLINK enables external computer applications to monitor
call activity, and establish, manipulate, and disconnect calls through the Coral system.
Coral systems installed with the CLA card enable the system to function as a universal
communications switching platform for specialized communications applications. The
CoraLINK OAI interface enables connection of the Coral's control circuits to an
external Ethernet LAN computer network.
The CoraLINK module is physically connected to the Coral's control system and
provides an Ethernet 10/100Base-T via RJ-45 output connector for interfacing the
CoraLINK is implemented by installing a CLA card piggy-back as a baby card on
the MEX-IP card. The CLA is installed at the J1 memory expansion connector on the
MEX-IP card. Refer to the CoraLINK Reference Manual and Coral FlexiCom & Coral IPx
Product Description for detailed information on the CLA.
The CLA module is composed of a base card and two mini modules mounted on it.
The CLA module provides the physical connection, through the J-BUS, to the MEX-IP
card, the call processor of the Coral system, and provides the front panel RJ-45
connection to the network. Its front panel also contains a LED indicator, which when
lit indicates that the CLA card is active and properly working, a reset push button and
an RS-232 COM port.
The CoraLINK software is contained in two different cards: IMC8 and CLA.
The CLA contains the memory required for the cards software and the shared
memory used for information transfer on the bus interface circuit.

CLA Functional Block Diagram


The functional block diagram is shown in Figure 8-13 and Figure 8-14.
The Ethernet Network Interface (LAN Communication Controller) is an adapter for
interconnecting the system with the Ethernet LAN external computer network. The
CoreModule 32-bit CPU compatible incorporates the elements of a PC compatible
computer and provides the processing power needed for the control of the CoraLINK
adapter.
The CLA base card contains a PC104 BUS to interconnect the mini modules. The PC104
BUS is electrically identical to the ISA BUS.
The communications software and part of the application software is run on the card
by the local CPU and is not loaded to the exchange call processor (MEX-IP).
The base card contains a 256 Kilobyte static RAM memory, shared between the CLA
and the MEX-IP. The shared memory is accessed from the CLA card via the PC104 BUS
and via the J-bus from the MEX-IP.
In the CLA 486 card, the 2MB flash memory EPROM on the base card contains the
card's software, which is burnt into memory during the regular software installation
procedure. The flash stores code for the card's program. The flash EPROM is connected
to the PC104 BUS.
In the CLA 686 card, the CFD (Compact Flash Disk) memory on the CFCLA mini
module contains the CLA card's software and programming code, which is factory

CLA Installation
This section details hardware installation procedures, software installation instructions
can be found in Chapter 4.

The Hardware installation procedure requires shutting off the Coral's input
power, which halts all normal system call processing and disconnects all
calls in progress. If this procedure is to be performed on an existing
installation that already is processing calls, it should be done at a time that
will pose the least disruption to call traffic.
The CoraLINK hardware consists of a CLA card mounted on the MEX-IP card.
Installing the CLA card is a quick and simple process requiring a small flat head and a
phillips screwdriver.
The CLA does not occupy a card slot within the Coral system cabinet. Rather, it is
installed as a baby card onto a memory interface connector on the MEX-IP card. The
CLA card may be installed at J-1 memory interface connector on the MEX-IP card.
Figure 8-16 illustrates the location of the interface connector on the MEX-IP card. Note
that the first DBX card installed in the Coral system must be located at J1. Figure 8-17
illustrates the location of the CLA card on the front of the MEX-IP card.
Unlike DBX memory card, the CLA card is not equipped with an extension connector
on the top side. Each MEX-IP J-1 bus interface connector can support two DBX
memory cards, or one DBX card and one CLA card, by stacking one card onto the
extension connector of another DBX memory card. When a CLA card is installed in the
extension connector of another DBX memory card, the DBX memory card installed on
the MEX-IP is referred to as the lower card, and the CLA installed on the extension
The CLA can be stacked on top of the first DBX at J1, or may be installed as the
lower card at J1. J2 cannot accept CLA cards due to physical limitations.
The CLA is secured to the MEX-IP or to the DBX memory interface extension
connector of another DBX memory card by four threaded nylon spacers (see Figure
8-15), and two Phillips screws on the front panel of the MEX-IP.

CLA Installation
1.

Applications
In Coral CTI applications, CoraLINK is connected to the Ethernet back-bone along
with the telephony server, as shown in Figure 8-18.
The CoraLink acts as an interface between the Coral system and any CTI server
application for all the services (call, transfer, etc.) and events (monitoring functions) of
the network. The CTI application together with the CTI telephony server manipulate
numerous different call commands from the agent network and translate them into
logical data. The CTI telephony server communicates with the CoraLINK through a
single connection. The CoraLINK then translates that data into logical information for
the Coral system, which processes the calls.
CoraLINK can support up to eight different multiple CTI applications on the network,
any or all of which may be simultaneously directing service requests to, and receiving
status events at any time.
CoraLINK uses TCP/IP protocol and complies with the ECMA 179 and 180 standards.
CoraLINK also supports the Novell TSAPI protocol, the Intel Dialogic CT-connect,
and IBMs Callpath.

CLA Module CoraLINK Adapter Card

The CLA should be accompanied by the appropriate software application.


Contact the manufacturer for the required CTI application and/or price list.

The HDC card (in combination with one PX card when two expansion cages IPx 800X
are installed, see Figure 8-19) is functionally similar to the 4GC/32GC card used in
larger capacity Coral systems. The HDC card supports two HDLC and eight PCM
highways (each PCM highway provides 64 timeslot,) and drives the peripheral buses
directly.

Circuit Description
Figure 8-20 illustrates the four major circuit areas of the HDC card in a block diagram.

clock signal that can be obtained from the incoming data stream of a digital trunk
card. A primary and secondary clock source may be defined in the system database to
synchronize the PCM clock of the HDC card with the digital trunk. If there is no
external clock source, the HDC card always reverts to an internal clock.
The HDC card contains phase-lock circuitry that synchronizes the Coral PCM clock to
a signal derived from one of two digital trunk interface cards (PRI23, PRI30, 4TBR,
8TBR, 30T, 30T/x or T1), designated the primary and secondary external clock source.
This feature, called slaved clock or loop-timed operation, enables the Coral system
to integrate with any digital telephone network in the world. The HDC monitors
external clock signal integrity and switches the system between the primary and

secondary external clock sources, or internal HDC clock, as necessary.

Digital Tone Generator


The digital tone generator generates the audio call progress tones (dial, busy, ringback,
etc.) used to notify the caller of the status of the call. The tones are also used during
Keyset (FlexSet, GKT, DKT, DST, EKT, VDK, etc.) ringing (except for mute ring which
is a function of the telephone set itself). DTMF and MFC dialing tones and test tone
patterns used by diagnostics are also generated by the 4GC/32GC. These tones are
stored in digital PCM form, in a programmable PROM. The stored tone patterns are
sent directly to the digital PCM bus when required. See page 8-55, Tone PROM, below
for more information.

Time Slot Management


Each HDLC and PCM bus operates at a fundamental data rate of 4.096 Mbps. This
data rate allows each HDLC bus sufficient bandwidth to simultaneously control up to
64 peripheral bus controller circuits located on the Shared Service and Peripheral
cards.
Every PCM highway consists of a transmit bus and a receive bus, each of which are
divided into 64 time slots. Each timeslot is eight bits wide, sampled every 125
microseconds (mS), or 8,000 times per second. This rate matches both American and
European PCM voice transmission rates to facilitate complete digital integration with
the local telephone network.
The timeslot manager, acting on command by the system processor, is responsible for
forwarding PCM voice samples from an incoming transmit timeslot assigned to one
port to a complementary outgoing receive timeslot for the recipient port. Traffic
handling capacity of the HDC card is maximized through the use of a very
sophisticated algorithm to avoid timeslot usage conflict.

Using Time Slots

64 ports on each of the eight peripheral highways to any other 64 ports, with a
maximum of 512 simultaneously busy ports, using the eight peripheral highways.
The HDCs 512 x 512 Time Switch interfaces with the Coral cabinet using eight Receive
and eight Transmit PCM highways. Each PCM highway carries 64 Time Slots. The total
number of Time Slots for the Coral with the HDC is 512 for Receive and 512 Transmit
PCM highways. The Coral backplane is designed to have two Receive and two
Transmit PCM highways for every four card slots. See Figure 8-21.
Number of Transmit TS - 64 on each of the eight PCM highways, making a total of 512.
Number of Receive TS - 64 on each of the eight PCM highways, making a total of 512.
Maximum 384 simultaneous calls per Coral IPx 800 system.

Tone PROM
The HDC card generates the audio call progress tones used to notify the caller of the
status of the call. In addition, tones used during Keyset (FlexSet, GKT, DKT, DST, EKT,
VDK, etc.) ringing (except for mute ring which is a function of the telephone set itself)
dual tone multi-frequency (DTMF) dialing tones, multi-frequency (MFC) dialing tones,
and test tone patterns used by diagnostics are also generated by the 4GC/32GC. These
tones are stored in digital PCM form, in a programmable PROM. The stored tone
patterns are output directly to the digital PCM bus when required.
Two methods of encoding audio sounds into a digital, PCM form are in common use:

The A-Law method is in common use throughout Europe, Africa, Asia, South
America, and many countries in other continents.

The -Law (pronounced M-YOO Law, sometimes spelled Mu-Law, or m-Law)


method is in common use in North America. Neither method has any particular
advantage over the other.

The Coral switching system may operate using either encoding method. The database
defaults are set to the -Law (m-Law) method for systems shipped to North America,
and A-Law for all other locations. For instructions on the database programming, see
the Program Interface and Database Reference Manual- Chapter 6 System Features (Tones,
Route: SFE, 8, M_LAW).
To operate a system using the non-default encoding method, the database must be
programmed appropriately, and the tone PROM located on the HDC card must be
changed to PROM containing the system tones stored in the appropriate encoding
method.
The encoding method is important only when the Coral system interfaces with another
switching system through a digital trunk interface card such as a T1, 30T, 30T/x, 4TBR,
8TBR, PRI-23 or PRI-30. In this case, the encoding method of both systems must match,
The integrated circuit socket U45 includes the tone PROM. See Figure 8-22. This PROM
contains DTMF and MFC dialing tones and other system tones such as dial tone,
ringback tone, busy tone, the Keyset ringing tones. The tone PROM present in the
HDC card IC socket varies according to the country of use. The correct tone PROM for
each country of use is supplied by the manufacturer.

Peripheral eXpansion Buffer Card

General Description
The PX (Peripheral eXpansion) buffer card acts as a buffer between first and second
expansion cages of the Coral IPx 800 system. For that reason, the PX is installed in the
first expansion cage only when two expansion cages are installed in the system. The
PX card is installed in slot #1 of the first expansion cage whenever a second expansion
cage is installed.
The PX card buffers PCM streams, HDLC highway, and clock & sync signals to the
second expansion cage. If the second expansion cage malfunctions, the PX card
prevents the malfunction in the second expansion cage from affecting the first
expansion cage, and the system continues to function with the main cage and the first
expansion cage fully operational.
Figure 8-23 displays the block diagram for the PX card. PCM and HDLC signals are
received from the Coral IPx 800M main cage and transmitted via the PX buffer card to
the second expansion cage. The second expansion cage transmits PCM and HDLC
signals to the main cage via the PX card.
