Microprocessors
One microprocessor handles data transfer between each serial interface
and software, reports the status of each port and takes commands from
the software to control the activities of the ports. A high performance MPU
supports the D-channel from the PRI card and other software applications
running simultaneously on other ports of the DDCH card.
The microprocessor performs the following functions:
• sanity check and self tests
• message handling between the CS 1000E, CS 1000M Cabinet, and
Meridian 1 PBX 11C Cabinetand the card
•
four port serial communication controller handling with Direct Memory
Access (DMA)
•
program download from the Small System Controller
