a) We enclose Christian Rovsing A/S's answers to referenced
   telex concerning comments to the NICS TARE interface.

   DN1  Accepted     "authorised by Mr. Woodcock" will
                     be deleted.

   DN2  Accepted     "Data channel received line signal
                     detector (109)" will be changed to
                     read "Data set ready (107)".

   DN3  Not accepted It would have been convenient if
                     CAMPS only had to have one interface
                     implementation to NICS TARE. But
                     NICS TARE is only able to act as
                     a Data Terminal Equipment (DTE).
                     Therefore, CAMPS is required to act
                     as a Data Circuit-terminating Equipment
                     (DCE) (i.e. among other things provide
                     transmit and receive clock) when
                     a direct link between CAMPS and NICS
                     TARE is used.

                     When a crypto/modem link is used,
                     both CAMPS and NICS TARE act as a
                     DTE and the modem as a DCE (i.e.
                     the clock is generated by the modem).

                     Therefore, CR prefer to have to distinct
                     the description.



   DN4  Accepted     "circuit 106 is" will be changed
                     to read "circuits 106 and 107 are".

   DN5  Clarify      Not understood. Please clarify what
                     "alarm condition" means.

   DN6  Accepted     Section 3.3.1,5) will be rewritten
                     to read:

                     D̲a̲t̲a̲ ̲S̲e̲t̲ ̲R̲e̲a̲d̲y̲ ̲(̲1̲0̲7̲)̲

                     This circuit will carry a control
                     signal from CAMPS indicating that
                     CAMPS is operating correctly and
                     prepared to transmit data to NICS
                     TARE. CAMPS will set circuit 107
                     to ON when ready to send data to
                     NICS TARE. Circuit 107 will be in
                     the OFF condition if CAMPS cannot
                     operate correctly.

   DN7  Accepted     Section 3.3.2 will be updated as
                     follows:

                     a)  "(6) Data set ready (107)" will
                         be added as a new circuit.

                     b)  in section 3.3.2,2): "circuit
                         106 is" will be changed to read
                         "circuits 106 and 109 are."

                     c)  The following new section will
                         be added:

                         D̲a̲t̲a̲ ̲S̲e̲t̲ ̲R̲e̲a̲d̲y̲ ̲(̲1̲0̲7̲)̲

                         This circuit will carry a control
                         signal from the crypto indicating
                         that the crypto/modem is ready
                         to operate. The crypto/modem
                         equipment will set circuit 107
                         to ON when it is ready to operate.

                     d)  section 3.3.2,x) will be deleted.

   DN8  Accepted     See DN7 for updates to section 3.3.2.

                     The updates to section 3.4.2 and
                     3.5 are provided by H/W manager Bjarne
                     Berthold. The updates are based on
                     the crypto equipment information
                     delivered by SHAPE (CAMPS log no.
                     60).



                     Section 3.4.2 and section 3.5 will
                     be deleted and replaced with the
                     following:

                    CAMPS may interface to NICS TARE
                    via crypto/modem equipments. In the
                    following is described the procedural
                    actions related to the electrical
                    interface between CAMPS and DOLCE.



                    The control of the DOLCE equipment
                    is performed by means of the interchange
                    circuits 105, 106, and 109.

                    Circuit 105 is used to initiate link
                    set-up and clear down.

                    Circuit 106 indicates whether the
                    link between CAMPS and NICS TARE
                    is functioning correctly.

                    Circuit 109 indicates whether the
                    link between the two crypto/modem
                    is functioning correctly.

       3.5.1        C̲A̲M̲P̲S̲ ̲I̲n̲i̲t̲i̲a̲t̲e̲d̲ ̲L̲i̲n̲k̲ ̲S̲e̲t̲-̲U̲p̲

                    After checking that circuit 106 and
                    109 are in the OFF condition CAMPS
                    can activate the synchronization
                    of the DOLCE by turning 105 to the
                    ON condition. After the link between
                    the local and the remote crypto has
                    been established circuit 109 will
                    turn to the ON condition and a key
                    negotiation and synchronization of
                    the two cryptoes will take place.
                    Circuit 106 will turn to the ON condition,
                    when the synchronization has been
                    established and it will indicate
                    a successful link set-up. See the
                    timing diagram in figure 3.5-1.

       3.5.2        M̲a̲n̲u̲a̲l̲l̲y̲ ̲o̲r̲ ̲R̲e̲m̲o̲t̲e̲ ̲I̲n̲i̲t̲i̲a̲t̲e̲d̲ ̲L̲i̲n̲k̲
                    ̲S̲e̲t̲-̲U̲p̲

                    If the circuits 105 and 106 are in
                    the OFF condition and circuit 109
                    is turned from the OFF to the ON
                    condition, it will indicate that
                    a manually or remote initiated link
                    set-up is going on. When circuit
                    106 is turned to the ON condition
                    a link set-up has been established
                    successfully and CAMPS shall then
                    turn circuit 105 to the ON condition.

       3.5.3        C̲A̲M̲P̲S̲ ̲I̲n̲i̲t̲i̲a̲t̲e̲d̲ ̲L̲i̲n̲k̲ ̲C̲l̲e̲a̲r̲ ̲D̲o̲w̲n̲

                    When the circuits 105, 106, and 109
                    are in the ON condition CAMPS can
                    clear down the link by turning circuit
                    105 to the OFF condition. This will
                    cause the local crypto to generate
                    a reset pulse and to turn circuit
                    106 OFF. After the two modems have
                    dropped the carrier, circuit 109
                    will be turned to the OFF condition.
                    This indicates that both cryptoes
                    are reset.



       3.5.4        R̲e̲m̲o̲t̲e̲ ̲I̲n̲i̲t̲i̲a̲t̲e̲d̲ ̲L̲i̲n̲k̲ ̲C̲l̲e̲a̲r̲ ̲D̲o̲w̲n̲
                    ̲o̲r̲ ̲L̲i̲n̲k̲ ̲F̲a̲i̲l̲u̲r̲e̲

                    If the circuits 105, 106, and 109
                    are in the ON condition and one of
                    the circuits 106 or 109 turns to
                    the OFF condition it will indicate
                    a link failure. Detection of circuit
                    109 going from ON to OFF will indicate
                    that a data-line error has  occurrred.
                    Detection of circuit 106 going from
                    ON to OFF will indicate that the
                    crypto is mal-functioning.

                    A link clear down is indicated, if
                    boths circuits 106 and 109 are turned
                    to the OFF condition.

                        The time period of expecting

                        Refer to SRS, CPS/210/SYS/0001,

                        2)  For clarity the following

  DN22 Not Accepted a)  NICS TARE has an interface to

                        NICS TARE and TRC/P-to-P and
                        between NICS TARE and CAMPS.



                        Consequently the opening sequence
                        between CAMPS and NICS TARE and
                        between CAMPS and TRC/P-to-P
                        must be the same.
