Configuring Advanced Port Options for CTP Bundles (CTPView)
Before you begin:
- Log in to the CTPView software at least at the Net_Admin level.
- Connect the CTPView server to the CTP device for which you want to configure bundles.
- Disable the bundle before you modify the bundle options.
To configure advanced port options for CTP bundles using CTPView:
- In the side pane, select Bundle > Configuration.
- Run your mouse over the Display and Select an Existing Bundle bar.
- In the table of bundles, select the bundle that you want to modify.
- Under Port Options, place a check mark in the Advanced Options Show check box to display advanced parameters, and configure the parameters described in Table 1.
- Click Click to Submit Bundle AND Port Changes.
Table 1: CTP Bundle Advanced Port Options Settings in CTPView
| Field | Function | Your Action |
|---|---|---|
Y Cable Redundancy | Specifies whether or not a redundant Y cable is installed on the CTP device. | Select ENABLED or DISABLED. |
Single Ended Data/Clock Output | Do not change this value without consulting JTAC. Specifies whether or not the CTP device drives received data (RD) onto data set ready (DSR) and real-time (RT) data onto test mode (TM). | Select ENABLED or DISABLED. |
Reclock to Align Clock and Data | Do not change this value without consulting JTAC. Specifies whether or not to reclock RD with the RT clock to align the data and the clock. | Select ENABLED or DISABLED. |
Only High TT Checking | Specifies that the CTP device disqualifies transmit timing (TT) only when it is higher than the port speed. When enabled, this setting keeps the port from going to the TtFail state when the incoming user clock fluctuates between 0 and the configured port rate. If the TT rate goes above the configured port rate, the CTP device sends the port to the TtFail state to protect the system from an overspeed TT, which would cause problems for the port, CTP device, or network. | Select ENABLED or DISABLED. |
TT Clock Gated by RTS | When request to send (RTS) is inactive, specifies whether or not the CTP device feeds TT with the internally created clock. | Select ENABLED or DISABLED. |
RTS Clock Gated Invert | When clock gating is enabled, specifies whether or not to use the inverted RTS signal. | Select ENABLED or DISABLED. |
Input/Output Data Inversion | Specifies whether or not to invert data bound for the interface with data bound for the IP network. | Select ENABLED or DISABLED. |
