Demonstration programs

The following demonstration programs are provided with Natural Access and can be used to verify that the CG 6060 board is operating correctly:

Program

Description

ctatest

Demonstrates Natural Access functions.

incta

Demonstrates handling inbound calls.

outcta

Demonstrates establishing outbound calls.

prt2prt

Demonstrates call transfer from an incoming line to an outgoing line and uses the Switching service to make connections and to send patterns.

vceplay

Demonstrates using the Voice Message service to play messages in voice files.

vcerec

Records one or more messages to a voice file.

Note: Executables for incta, outcta, and prt2prt are in the respective sub-directories under \nms\ctaccess\demos for Windows and /opt/nms/ctaccess/demos for UNIX.

Running these demonstration programs requires a connection to either a live T1/E1 trunk or a connection to T1/E1 test equipment that supports call generation and voice path testing. You can use the T1/E1 cross-over cable to loop back one trunk to another trunk. One trunk can then receive calls placed on the other trunk.

To run these demonstration programs on the CG 6060 board, specify the MVIP-95 timeslot number of the local DSP resource on which to run the program.

For example, on a CG 6060 board configured as an E1 CAS board and booted with default switch connections, the DSP resources on stream 64, timeslots 0..29 are connected to the first trunk. Timeslots 30..59 are connected to the second trunk, and so on. Assume that the board number is 0.

To run ctatest on the first channel of the first E1 trunk, enter the following command:

ctatest -s0 -b 0

To run ctatest on the first channel of the second E1 trunk, enter the following command:

ctatest -s30 -b 0
