         This document specifies the facility used for simulation
         of connnected end-systems (i.e. CAMPS and CCIS) used
         as test environment for the PC Factory Acceptance Test
         (FAT).
         The Test System is specified to the functional level.

         Since the PC System interfaces to a CAMPS/SCARS System
         and a CCIS System and none of these are available for
         the PC FAT, these end-systems will be replaced by simulated
         end-systems.

         The FAT Test Environment is thus composed of the three
         systems depicted in figure 3-1.

            FIGURE 3-1 FAT LOGICAL ENVIRONMENT


         These Systems are:

         a)  PC - A complete unmodified Protocol Converter subject
             to test.

         b)  CAMPS SIMULATOR - A System behaving to PC as a
             CAMPS or SCARS System.

             The System includes:
             1)  An Interactive User Interface for controlling
                 the transmission and reception of E1-formatted
                 transactions.

             2)  A CAMPS/SCARS Interface level 3 Protocol Adapter
                 with a facility for dumping frames exchanged
                 with lower levels to a log-file.

             3)  A CAMPS/SCARS Interface Level 1 & 2 Protocol
                 identical to the CSLP package of PC.

         c)  CCIS SIMULATOR - A System behaving to PC as a CCIS
             System.

             The System includes:

             1)  An Interactive User Interface for controlling
                 the transmission and reception of E1-formatted
                 transactions.

             2)  A CCIS Interface DINDAC Level Protocol Adapter
                 modified to behave as the counterpart to the
                 CPA Package of PC and with a facility for dumping
                 DINDAC segments and control messages exchanged
                 with lower levels to a log-file.

             3)  A CCIS Interface RCI/GRTS Level Protocol modified
                 to behave as the Mastermode Counterpart to
                 the CLP Package of PC.


         The two simulators are operated in the same way using
         a common simulator command language described in chapter
         5. The OPEN Command thus includes a parameter specifying
         whether the actual simulator shall simulate the CAMPS
         System or the CCIS System.

         The Command Language includes commands for transmitting
         and receiving E1-formatted transactions. These may
         be entered from a VDU or read from a Transmit-File
         of prestored transactions. Received transactions may
         be sent to the VDU or written to a receive-file. Figure

         For practical reasons the two end-system simulators
         are hosted in one computer. This allows for sharing
         hardware resources such as CPU and DISK.  However,
         the two end-systems are logically independent.

         Figure 4-1 shows the FAT System Configuration.

         Figure 4-2 shows the Hardware Configuration of the
         Simulator.

         Figure 4-3 shows the switch setting on the RAM Boards.

         This Chapter describes the command language by which
         the end-system simulators are operated.

         Command and results are given interactively on a VDU
         connected to the Simulator.

         The System is ready for a new command whenever the
         prompt ( - ) appears on the VDU. The prompt can be
         provoked by breaking to the Test Controller Process
         (SCATEC or CISTEC) communicating with the VDU.

         Each command is identified by a keyword followed by
         parameters, if any.

         The Command Keywords are:

             OPEN
             CLOSE
             TRANSMIT
             RECEIVE
             QUIT

         The first character of a keyword is sufficient to identify
         the command.
