International Classification:

G06F 1100
H04M 342

US Classification:

395575

Abstract:

A method is disclosed for distributing operating program data stored in a common memory area of a digital telephone system, to a plurality of digital telephone system controllers. The method includes transmitting the operating program data from the common memory via a control/data bus to remotely located digital facility test card. The digital facility test card receives and stores a load image of the operating program in random access memory (RAM). A PCM network connection is established from the digital facility test card to each of the plurality of digital telephone controllers through the digital telephone system. The stored load image from the digital facility test card RAM is then transmitted to each of the digital telephone system controllers via the PCM network connection.

Abstract:

A message arrangement and method for interfacing a digital telephone Digital system including a Digital Facility Line Card (DFLC) that connects a user operated Telephone Instrument (DTI) to a stored program operated digital Central Office (CO) system. The message arrangement comprises, a DFLC message processor that generates and transmits to the DTI control messages in response to report messages transmitted by the DTI, following a user activated DTI event. The control messages provide the user with visual and aural DTI operating information. The DFLC message processor further generates and transmits to a CO system central controller, device report messages requesting access to, and network services from the CO system, responsive to call processing report messages from the DTI. The CO system central controller sends device control messages to the DFLC which operates in accordance with the received device control messages to generate and transmit to the DTI, DTI control messages. The DTI control messages instruct the DTI to provide the user with operating information and to collect call processing data from the DTI, for transmission to the DFLC message processor.
