certain safety rules to be followed. 1.All extensions should be on
Hook when powering on the trainer. 2.Avoid leaving the trainer On
for a long time. 3.Avoid Ringing in manual mode for a long time or
after extension is off hook. ST2657 Scientech Technologies Pvt.
Ltd.8Technology History In the 1876's Alexander Graham Bellinvented
the telephone; a wired system for two
wayvoicecommunicationbetweenremotelocations.Youspokeintoaunitatone
location and your voice was heard at the other location,
immediately this system was somewhat limited in that .It only
allowed communication with one fixed location, so it was an obvious
advance to have lines going to other locations. Initially, this is
what happened-each telephone had lines going to many other
telephones, which meant a lot
ofwiresandtherewerepracticallimitationsastothenumberofphonesonecould
connect to.
Soon,theideaofcentralswitchingthatsManualSwitchingwasdeveloped.Each
telephoneconnectedtoacentralhub(theexchange)andfromthere,theoperator
wouldconnectyourcalltoanothersubscriber.Thusswitchboardsweredeveloped
where upon liftingyour receiver, an operator was alerted and you
would tell her who you wished to speak. Apart from other
limitations it was very labour intensive and as the popularity of
the telephone grew, the number of operators employed by the Office
grew;largeswitchingcentres(exchanges)couldhavemanytensofoperators,each
with their own switchboard. In the early days, each telephone user
was known as the 'subscriber' and that term is still used today.
The Invention of Automatic Switching : Almon B. Strowger was an
undertaker in Kansas City, USA. The story goes that there was a
competing undertaker locally whose wife was an operator at the
local (manual)
telephoneexchange.WheneveracalleraskedtobeputthroughtoStrowger,calls
weredeliberatelyputthroughtohiscompetitor.ThisobviouslyfrustratedStrowger
greatly and he set about devising a system for doing away with the
human part of the equation.

switching. The spacedivision switching has its ownadvantages over
other switching
domainssuchasmorebandwidth,simplecircuits&easyvoicehandling.Inspace
division, each subscriber or extension has it own dedicated path in
the exchange. The exchange uses one full physical path& a
dedicated cross pointfor one call this may result in blocking. As
the number of extension increases it directly affects the number of
crosspoints & circuitry. Erlang :
1.Erlangisaunitoftrafficmeasurementandrepresentsthecontinuoususeofa
line for one hour.2.One Erlang represents the amount of traffic
intensity carried by a channel that is completely occupied.
3.Onehour of telephone traffic in an hour oftime. For example, if
circuit carries 120 minutes of traffic in an hour, that's two
Erlang.
A.K.ErlangtheDanishmathematicianwasthefirstpersontostudytheproblemof
telephone networks. In 1917 by studying a village telephone
exchange he worked out
aformula,nowknownasErlangsformula,tocalculatethefractionofcallers
attempting to call someone outside thevillage that must wait
because all of thelines
areinuse.AlthoughErlangsmodelisasimpleone,themathematicsunderlying
today's complex telephone networks is still based on his work.
Erlang = Number of calls Average call durationOne hour (60 min or
3600 sec) Suppose a systemhandles 408 calls of 2.5 minutes in
duration duringbusiest 1hour So,Erlang (BHT) =408 2.560 (min)
Erlang = 17 There are two types of trunked systems which are
commonly used 1.The first type offers no queuing for call requests.
This type of trunking is called Blocked calls cleared or Lost call
cleared. The probability that a call is blocked is determined by
the Erlang B formula. 2.The second type of trunked system isone in
which a queue is provided to hold
callswhichareblocked.ThistypeoftrunkingiscalledBlockedcallsdelayed.
The likelihood of a call not having immediate access to a channel
is determined by the Erlang C formula.ST2657 Scientech Technologies
Pvt. Ltd.12Erlang B Formula : The Erlang B model is an established
traffic model for predicting Telecommunication performance. This
model makes assumptions about the nature of telephone traffic and
may prove inaccurate under special circumstances. It is widely used
to determine the number of trunks required to handle a known
calling load during one hour period. It is also used to determine
the probability thata call is blocked& gives the GOS(Grade of
Service) for a trunked system. The formula assumes that if callers
get busy signals, they go away forever & no retries where as
the fact is some callers retry. Disadvantage : It under estimates
the trunks required. The Erlang B formula is GoS [blocking] =! n /
An) ! C / A (CC n = 0 Where, C = number of trunked channelA = Total
offered traffic Erlang C : This formula also predicts the waiting
time (delay) based on three things No. of lines,
No.ofpeoplewaitingtobeserved&theaverageamountofittakestoserveeach
person. It can also predict the resources required to keep waiting
time with in targeted limits. Disadvantage : It can over estimate
the resources required Traffic Analysis Definitions : 1.Busy hour :

500 has been lost. ST2657 Scientech Technologies Pvt. Ltd.13Getting
Started The ST2657 is of 204 configuration, 2 direct lines & 4
extension lines.Monitoring Tones : It is necessary to get familiar
with the various "tones" of your EPABX System.
1.ExchangeDialTone:Thedialtoneisacontinuoussoundandsoundslike
uooncontinuouslywithnosilenceperiodbutgetsinterruptedinterval.Itlasts
for 8 seconds during which the exchange waits for dialing to be
initiated. If no dialingtakesplaceduringthisperiodtheEPABXtimes
theuseroutand starts issuing a busy tone.
2.DOT,P&T,andCentralExchangeDialTone:Onaccessingadirectline,
you will obtain the normal P & T dial tone. 3.Busy Tone : The
busy tone is a discontinuous sound (Du-Du) with On & Off
periods.Therearekinds of busytoneswithdifferencesinOn&Offperiod
or pitch. This tone indicates that the system is too busy to accept
any operation. This tone converts to a dial tone as soon as the
system isfree enough to accept your dialing. The type of busy tone
(which is the slow one) is encountered when called subscriber
number is busy. 4.Ring Back Tone : This sound is continuous with
silence period. When you dial extensions, you will hear this
ring-back tone till the extension answers.
5.RingingTone:Therearetwotypesofringsthatcanbeheardfromthe
telephone instrument connected to the System. a.When your
instrument is called by another internal instrument the ring will
be a continuous one with a one second On and 3 seconds Off period.
b.A ring from a Co. In. (Trunk) Line will ring like a normal
telephone.
6.In-ComingCallQueuingTone:Thistonewillbeheardwhenacalleris waiting
for your extension to get free. It is similar to the feature mode
tone and
willbeheardrepeatedlywithalongpause.Thistonewillonlybeheardonly
when there is a Co. In. (Trunk) incoming call. Intrusion Tone:
(Barge in Tone) : This is-a fast beep.
7.HookFlash(HF):ThefeaturesofyourEPABXrequiretheuseofaHook Flash
(HF). This is performed by tapping the hook switch ofyour extension
for a period less than 0.5 second. Care should be taken not to
press the hook switch for more than 0.5 seconds when a HF is
desired. If the exchange hook switch is pressed for longer than 0.5
seconds it will register a "hang up" or "reset". Telephone
instruments have a built in electronic flash key. It is advisable
to use the flash key instead of the hook switch in order to
register a "hook flash". ST2657 Scientech Technologies Pvt.

Units A telephone exchange (EPABX) consists of various units. They
are. 1.Power Supply 2.TrunkUnit 3.Extension Unit 4.Control Unit
5.Decoder Unit 6.DTMF Unit 7.Clock Generation Unit 8.Tone
Generation Unit 9.Ringer Unit 10.Switching Matrix 11.Memory 12.CPU
Power Supply Unit The Power Supply unitgenerates the DC &
ringer voltages for EPABX system. The input to the Power Supply may
be 230 V AC or 24 V DC battery. Block diagram of the power supply
Figure 5 Circuit Description : The AC line is fed to a step down
transformer which gives out the voltages 10V & 28
Vrespectively.ThisisfedtotheVoltageregulatorthroughrectifier.Theregulator

voltages to the system charges the battery (when not in use) by 24
V DC supply. From the regulator voltage is supplied to various
units of the system. In the absence of AC power the battery back up
is used.ST2657 Scientech Technologies Pvt. Ltd.19Trunk Unit Trunk
unit often termed as junction unit/card. It is interfaced to the
lines coming from PSTN or Central exchange or the other exchange.
Circuit diagram of Trunk circuit Figure 6Circuit Description :
Theprotectivecircuitsprovidesprotectionagainstovervoltages&otherhazards.It
consistsofbridgecircuitforpolarityprotection,similartothatofatelephone
instrument. A 24 V Zener diode is used to maintain proper voltage.
The optocoupler is used for an incoming ring detection. As the

power is ON the relay is connected to NC terminal & hence it is
not connected to any extension. When trunklineis accessed using 27
or 0. Theground pin of the relayis grounded & the relay
switches & gets connected with the extension through switching
matrix. The relay signal is generated by the control unit under the
supervision of CPU. ST2657 Scientech Technologies Pvt.
Ltd.20Experiment 2 Objective :To analyze & measure the ring
detection phenomena Procedure : 1.Connect the trunk line or direct
line to the Trunk 0 jack on the trainer. 2.Power On the trainer.
3.Make a call to the trunk line connected number. 4.Observe the LED

Working :As the coupler gets the signal at its pin 1 the 5V applied
to pin 5 is extended to pin 4 whichis used as an indication of an
incoming ring& measured at TP11. By this the CPU gets the
information through control unit. We conclude that if a subscriber
calls anumber located in a different exchange .The ring is extended
till it reaches the called subscriber exchange where the incoming
ring is detected & extends its own ring till the subscriber
end. ST2657 Scientech Technologies Pvt. Ltd.21Experiment 3

Generation UnitThe 4 MHz clockgenerated by the crystal is divided
by using the flip flop IC 74HC 74 (also served to CPU) & the
frequency of 2 MHz is generated. The 2 MHz signal is also fed to
dual BCD counter, which is used as an frequency divider. The output
at pin 6is 200 KHzwhichis by dividing theinput frequency 2 MHz by
10 which is again fed to next counter in the same IC. So 200 KHz
again divided by 4 to achieve 40- 50 KHz (Approximately) and also
by 10 for 50 KHz. ST2657 Scientech Technologies Pvt. Ltd.33 Block
Diagram of Clock / Tone generation unit Figure 13 This 20 KHz
signal is fed to next counter as input the output of this counter
is 200 Hz achieved by dividing 20 KHz by 10 for 2 KHz & again 2
KHz by 10. The 200 Hz is fed to next counter for dividing it by 5
to achieve final 40 Hz. This 40 Hz is fed to the ringer section for
ring generation.The 40-50 KHz (Approximately) is given to the tone

period.
Theformulaassumesthatifcallersgetbusysignals,theygoawayforever,neverto
retry (lost calls cleared). Since some callers retry, ErlangB can
underestimate trunks required. However, Erlang B is generally
accurate in situations with few busy signals.
ErlangC:Calculatespredictedwaitingtimes(delay)basedonthreethings:the
number of servers (reps); the number of people waiting to be served
(callers); and the average amount of time it takes to serve each
person. It can also predict the resources required to keep waiting
times within targeted limits. ErlangC assumesno lost calls or busy
signals, so it has a tendency to overestimate staff
required.Erlang,A.K.:ADanishengineerwhoworkedfortheCopenhagenTelephone
