    摘要: A portable communications unit contains both wireless and wireline communication capability, through a selected one of which a craftsperson may establish a communication path with a test system of a telephone office. The test system responds to commands supplied over the established communication path supplies messages to the user's communication unit for providing a user with information for controlling the operation of a test head that is connectable to a subscriber line. The communications unit has a contact-sensitive visual display, which converts touch inputs into control signals that are transmitted to the test system and through which information associated with the operation of the test system is presented to the user. The user's communication unit is operative, in response to a user's request for the establishment of a communication path between the communications unit and the test system, to attempt to place the communications unit in wireless communication with the telephone office. If the wireless path is unavailable, a message is displayed instructing the user to use a wireline path.

    摘要: A telephone service technician's portable computer has a trouble-shooting mechanism which analyzes craftsperson inputs, trouble ticket data, local and remote test data, and suggests a problem solving strategy. The system includes a trouble-shooting application engine, a knowledge database, and a shared, parameter database. The knowledge database contains rules and static parameters which define the characteristics and behavior of the application engine. These rule sets and information are telephone line trouble-shooting specific, based on a diagnostic evaluation of possible line problems, and recommended procedures to repair the line and remove the fault. The shared database data may be supplied from a variety of external sources, such as through a work order manager software application, measurement data sourced by portable test equipment, or data input by the craftsperson.

    摘要: A subscriber line circuit test and conditioning arrangement for use with a non-metallic (fiber optic) digital communication path-based digital communication network employs a single (basic rate ISDN) metallic channel unit (BMCU) installed at a site terminating the fiber optic communication path. A BMCU communicates with a central office test system using an auxiliary B-ISDN communication `test` channel portion (2B+D) channels of the time division multiplexed digital communication DS0 channels. Digital command and response signals are transported by the two ISDN bearer (B) channels and are coupled directly to tip and ring digital signal processors in the central office test system, without the need for intermediate digital-to-analog and analog-to-digital conversion by a metallic channel unit at a central office terminal, and that additionally performed by a central office terminal and central office switch. The data (D) channel is employed to conduct access, calibration and control communications with the metallic channel unit.

    摘要: The rate of change of a metallic subscriber loop charging characteristic and the period of time elapsed subsequent to the coupling of testing circuitry of a remote test unit coupled to the line are measured. The operation of the testing circuitry within the remote test unit is initiated in response to the rate of change of line voltage reaching a preselected rate of change, prior to the elapsed period of time reaching a prescribed time value. If the measured period of time reaches a prescribed value prior to the monitored rate of change of line voltage reaching the preselected rate of change, the last sampled value of the line voltage is stored and reported to a mechanized loop test system supervisory site.

    摘要: A processor-controlled integrated telephone line measurement and conditioning apparatus installable at a remote site provides a multiplicity of measurement and conditioning functions that are selectively executable in response to commands issued from a supervisory command site. The dual measurement and conditioning capabilities of the architecture of the present invention impart both remote measurement unit (RMU) functionality and metallic access unit (MAU) functionality that may be individually accessed and controlled. The RMU operates primarily as a test head that performs mechanized loop testing (MLT) tasks, while the MAU is operative to impart prescribed electrical conditions to a specified line circuit. When controllably accessed to operate as an RMU, the present invention responds to instructions from a command site (loop maintenance operations systems) and performs single-line demand tests on a line provided by a pair gain system. To operate as an MAU, the system receives commands from a direct access test unit (DATU) and performs line conditioning functions on the test line provided by the pair gain system.
