Line 1-5 : for connection to subs telephone A, B and Meter - Do i need to connect anything to Meter wire ?
A Switch Outlet A-E : for connecting to B switches - ABPH, where P is meter H is signal for holding path through Crosspoint switch relays. - for my TXE2 I only have 1B switch and 2 subs cards - so how do i connect ?
MK1 - MK5 : Input : Mark signal for each subs line - connects KT(A) & KT(B) to 'marked' sub
KT- K Test: Output: - enables call control to know state of line selected by MK signal above
Free - 530 ohms to -48v ( 530 is 1.5k and 820 ohms in parallel)
Parked - 1.5k ohms to -48v
Busy - earth ( when K relay is energised by P signal)
PN -Output ? to A pattern relay - a -ve battery signal output is sent to the APR
N1 and NE are used to send a current pulse through the CNG field, to signal to the control circuits that Line 1 has gone off hook.
N2 and NE are used to send a current pulse through the CNG field, to signal to the control circuits that Line 2 has gone off hook
N3 and NE signal line 3 has gone of hook
N4 and NE signal line 3 has gone of hook
N5 and NE signal line 3 has gone of hook
