5. PERMANENT ASSEMBLIES
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
5.1 Create a Permanent Assembly (CAY)
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Transaction CAY associates a group of facilities as an assembly. Permanent
|
|||
|
Assemblies may be created from facilities which have spare (SF), reserved (RS),
|
|||
|
avaliable (AV), miscellaneous (MS), official (OF), trunk injector (TJ), test
|
|||
|
(TS) or working (WK) status. Facilities that have an excluded (EX), left-in
|
|||
|
(LI) or unknown (UK) status, may not be part of a Permanent Assembly.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
When a Permanent Assembly is created, the status of non- working facilities
|
|||
|
will be changed to reserved and will be assigned an assembly code will be
|
|||
|
assigned to the facilities.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Although Permanent Assemblies may be created using a combination of working
|
|||
|
facilities and spare facilities, service orders that are issued against such
|
|||
|
assemblies are blocked. Therefore, it is recommended that Permanent Assemblies
|
|||
|
using a combination of working and spare facilities not be created.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
In an operational wire center, if an assembly is to be made permanent in
|
|||
|
COSMOS, an assembly catagory (AC) of "PERM" must be specified on the CAY input.
|
|||
|
In a data conversion wire center, Permanent Assemblies are assumed, so the input
|
|||
|
of "AC PERM" is not required.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
System generated codes identify Permanent Assemblies on output by one
|
|||
|
alphabetic character. All alphabetic characters are randomly assigned except S,
|
|||
|
T, and Z. When associated with a facility, these alphabetic characters
|
|||
|
indicate:
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
S = Suspended Cricuit
|
|||
|
T = Reserved for TIRKS (Trunk Inventoried Record Keeping System)
|
|||
|
Z = Assembled facilities that have been suspended. More than one group of
|
|||
|
assembled facilities may show the same assembly code tag. This does not imply
|
|||
|
that all facilities with the same tag are assembled to each other; they must
|
|||
|
also be in the same circuit to be assembled to each other. Each code may be
|
|||
|
used more than once.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
When a Permanent Assembly is deleted, the assembly code tag is removed from
|
|||
|
the facilities. Non-working facilities will return to a spare status.
|
|||
|
Equivalent working facilities will retain their present status.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Permanent Assemblies can be created from any combination of the following
|
|||
|
facilities:
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Telephone Number (TN)
|
|||
|
Line Equipment (OE)
|
|||
|
Cable Pair (CP)
|
|||
|
Tie Pair (TP)
|
|||
|
Bridge Lifter (BL)
|
|||
|
Trunk (TK)
|
|||
|
Concentrator (CON)
|
|||
|
Message register (MR)
|
|||
|
Special Equipment (SE)
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Automatically Assigned Relays - Advanced (AR), Sleeve- Connect (SC), Tens
|
|||
|
Block Auxiliary (TBA), and Tens Block Screening (TBS) types
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Non-Inventoried Relays (RLY)
|
|||
|
Terminal (TER)
|
|||
|
X-Number (XN)
|
|||
|
Private Lines (PL)
|
|||
|
Transimission Equpitment (TRE)
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
At least one inventoried facility, PL or TER must be entered into the assembly
|
|||
|
before any SEs, non-inventoried TKs, or CONs.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
----------
|
|||
|
* When a working relay, (both inventoried and non- inventoried) which os part
|
|||
|
of a Permanent Assembly is disconnected, COSMOS does not presently have the
|
|||
|
capability of updating the relay files and table to reflect this disconnect.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Coordination between the LAc and the FCC (Frame Control Center) is required to
|
|||
|
establish Permanent Assemblies on both spare and working facilities.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
The following examples illustrate various functions of transactions CAY
|
|||
|
(Create an Assembly) and ISH (Circuit Inquiry).
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Example 1: Create a Permanent Assembly associating a spare CP and SE with
|
|||
|
voice repeater information.

5.2 Modify a Permanent Assembly
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Transaction MAY is used to modify a Permanent Assembly (in instances when a
|
|||
|
service order is being changed, etc. ). The assembly to be modified must be
|
|||
|
identified by an inventoried facility (other than AR, SC, TBA), a PL or a TER on
|
|||
|
the H- line. Facilities to be added are entered on I-Lines. Facilities to be
|
|||
|
deleted are entered on 0-Lines. The input of assembly category (AC) PERM is not
|
|||
|
requied on the H-line input for MAY. The Permanent Assembly tag will be removed
|
|||
|
from the outgoing facility and transferred to the incoming facility at the
|
|||
|
completion of the MAY transaction.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
When MAY is completed, the outgoing facility (s) that had a reserved status
|
|||
|
will be changed to "spare" status. If the outgoing facility is presently
|
|||
|
working, the status will remain the same.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Incoming facilities that are spare will be changed to a "reserved" status.
|
|||
|
Incoming facilities that are working will retain that status.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|

5.3 Delete a Permanent Assembly (DAY)
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Transaction DAY deletes an entire assembly. Required O-line entry identifies
|
|||
|
one inventoried facility (other than AR, SC, or TBA), a TER or a PL.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
When transaction DAY is completed, the Permanent Assembly tag is removed from
|
|||
|
the outgoing facilities.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
The outgoing facilities that had a "reserved" status will be changed to
|
|||
|
"spare" and will be available for assignment. Facilities that have a working
|
|||
|
status will retain their status.

5.4 Maintenance Change Tickets and Permanent Assemblies
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Transaction MCE (MaintenanceS Change Establish) is used to replace any
|
|||
|
physical facility on a given circuit, in responce to a SMaintenance Change
|
|||
|
Ticket (MCT). SWhen an MCE is run against a facility that is permanently
|
|||
|
assembled, the facilities in the assembly will be removed from the circuit along
|
|||
|
with the facility being removed. In the following sequence it is assumed that
|
|||
|
the user wished to keep the other assembled facilities in the circuit.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Example 11: ISH of a circuit containing a Permanent Assembly. The SE in
|
|||
|
thSis case represents an apartment house door answering service termination.
