T1/E1/J1 FRAMER/LIU COMBO - ARCHITECTURE DESCRIPTION
The table below shows configurations of the Alarm and Error Interrupt Enable bit of the Block Interrupt Enable
Register.
When these interrupt enable bits are set and Red Alarm is present in the incoming DS1 frame, the XRT86VL3x
framer will declare Red Alarm by doing the following:
Set the read-only Receive Red Alarm State bit of the Alarm and Error Status Register (AESR) to one
indicating there is Red Alarm detected in the incoming DS1 frame.
Set the Receive Red Alarm State Change bit of the Alarm and Error Status Register to one indicating there is
a change in state of Red Alarm. This status indicator is valid until the Framer Interrupt Status Register is
read.
Reading this register clears the associated interrupt if Reset-Upon-Read is selected in Interrupt Control
Register (ICR). Otherwise, a write-to-clear operation by the microprocessor is required to reset these status
indicators.
The table below shows the Receive Red Alarm State Change status bits of the Alarm and Error Status
Register.
The Receive Red Alarm State bit of the Alarm and Error Status Register (AESR), on the other hand, is a read-
only bit indicating there is Red Alarm detected in the incoming DS1 frame.
The table below shows the Receive Red Alarm State status bits of the Alarm and Error Status Register.

Yellow Alarm
The Alarm indication logic within the Receive Framer block of the XRT86VL3x framer monitors the incoming
DS1 frames for Yellow Alarm condition. The yellow alarm is detected and declared according to the following
procedure:
