Other transmission systems will perhaps be used in the future. Therefore, it seems necessary that the intercontinental signalling system should be suitable for as wide a variety of transmission systems as possible; .PP (c) that this signalling system must enable the channels to be operated on a both\(hyway basis. This type of operation can produce collisions; therefore it was noted that the intercontinental signalling system must provide for limiting collisions, or at least for simple facilities to detect head\(hyon collisions and for taking appropriate action after their detection; .PP (d) that another important feature of the intercontinental signalling system should concern the automatic testing of the ability of the multiplex equipment to transmit teleprinter characters, before establishing a call to the distant subscriber, through an intercontinental transit centre. The class\(hyof\(hytraffic signal, the class\(hyof\(hytraffic\(hycheck signal, and the transmission\(hyconfirmation signal in the form proposed, can provide an efficient and simple method of meeting this requirement. The signals provided also check the functioning of the FRXD when used. It is important that the correct class\(hyof\(hytraffic and class\(hyof\(hytraffic\(hycheck signals be transmitted for the required category; .PP (e) that the use of teleprinter characters, for selection information and other signalling functions, appears to be most advantageous, as they can be transmitted over the error\(hyproof radio circuits, which undoubtedly will be part of the intercontinental transit network; .bp .PP (f ) that it is emphasized that the signals, in the form proposed, simplify interconnection of the intercontinental transit network to the terminal networks, in the outgoing and in the incoming countries; .PP (g) that as regards the method of transmission of selection information, it has been decided that the selection by complete block will be adopted on intercontinental routes. Under this arrangement, the telex destination code and the national number of the called subscriber will be signalled as a single group of characters without awaiting backward path signals. There may be some advantage with regard to reducing the occupancy of intercontinental trunks and equipment and in preventing the mutilation of signals if the complete group of selection signals is assembled, preferably by the originating country, before commencing to route the call. However, the retransmission of selection signals from one switching centre to the next may start even before the block has been completely received; .PP (h) that exemption from selection by complete block is permissible for manual testing of intercontinental links. The receiving centre should take account of this and also of the fact that calls via an error\(hyproof multiplex radio channel may prevent selection signals' being received as a complete block; .PP (i) that interworking requirements between signalling standards according to U.1 (types\ A and\ B), U.11 (type\ C) and U.12 (type\ D) have been defined in Recommendation\ U.15 (interworking rules), .sp 2P .LP \fIunanimously declares the view\fR .sp 1P .RT .PP \fB1\fR The signalling system between two intercontinental transit centres will be as described in Table\ 1/U.11. .sp 9p .RT .PP \fINote\ 1\fR \ \(em\ In this Recommendation: .LP X\ denotes the intercontinental transit centre that originates the call under consideration on the intercontinental circuit; .LP Y\ denotes the intercontinental transit centre that receives the call considered on the intercontinental circuit. .LP Both the forward and backward path signals are described at the moment of their emission on the intercontinental circuit. It should be noted that the signals in Tables\ 1/U.11, 2/U.11 and\ 3/U.11 are those transmitted by the switching equipment irrespective of the type of transmission used for the intercontinental trunk circuit. It is possible that the teleprinter signals, although transmitted at automatic speed, may be delayed or separated by periods of stop polarity after transmission via multiplex systems and that the original periods of start and stop polarity may be either lengthened or shortened by the incidence of error\(hycorrection on radio circuits. .LP The circuits between\ X and\ Y may transmit calls in both directions. .PP \fINote\ 2\fR \ \(em\ For the description of the combinations of International Telegraph Alphabet\ No.\ 2, see Table\ 1/S.13\ [1] or the Recommendation cited in\ [2]. .PP \fB2\fR For bothway working circuits used in the intercontinental transit network, the following action to minimize the incidence of head\(hyon\(hycollision is recommended. .sp 9p .RT .PP At opposite ends of a group of bothway trunk circuits, either inverse order testing should be adopted or a close approximation to it by testing the route in smaller groups of circuits in a fixed order starting the search from the same initial position. .PP That calls should be offered in such a way that each circuit is tested once only for the minimum period of time necessary to ascertain whether it is free or busy, and the switching equipment should not have facilities for delayed searching. .PP A head\(hyon collision is provisionally assumed if centre\ X receives combination\ No.\ 20 (100\ ms pulse of polarity\ A) instead of combination\ No.\ 22 (40\ ms pulse of polarity\ A). When this combination\ No.\ 20 has been detected, centre\ X checks receipt of the second combination\ No.\ 20 to establish whether a head\(hyon collision or a signal mutilation due to faulty transmission has occurred. During this time, centre\ X continues signalling towards centre\ Y, until both combinations\ No.\ 20 of the calling signal have been transmitted. The clearing signal is then sent and the trunk is released. .PP When a head\(hyon collision has been assumed upon receipt of a single combination\ No.\ 20, the switching equipment may make another attempt to select a free circuit either on the same group of circuits or on a group of overflow circuits, if they exist. In the event of a further head\(hyon collision on the recall or on the call attempt via the overflow route, no further recall will be made and the call will be cleared down after returning the transit failure signal . .PP Should the second combination\ No.\ 20 not have arrived in the five seconds following the commencement of receipt of the first combination\ No.\ 20, centre\ X will put into operation the automatic retest procedure on the circuit concerned. .bp .RT .PP \fB3\fR There is no need to distinguish on a circuit\ XY whether a call is to terminate in centre\ Y or if it is to pass in transit via\ Y to a country other than the country (or network) of\ Y. The advantage of not having to transmit on circuit\ XY the digits of the destination code in the case of a call termination in\ Y is offset by the complication of the registers and the necessity for an additional discrimination in the class\(hyof\(hytraffic signal. .sp 9p .RT .PP \fB4\fR The transit centre will be provided with an identification code consisting of seven characters, of which the uniform format is: .sp 9p .RT .LP \(em combination\ No.\ 29; .LP \(em either one letter combination and combination\ No.\ 29 or two letter combinations designating the transit Administration; .LP \(em combination\ No.\ 30; .LP \(em a one\(hy, two\(hy or three\(hydigit number identifying the centre and/or equipment in the transit Administration's network. .PP If the numerical portion of the transit centre identification code comprises one or two digits, two or one combinations\ No.\ 30 should be added to maintain the seven\(hycharacter format. The letter (or two letters) designating the transit Administration shall be the letter (or two letters) of the telex network identification code as far as possible. In interworking cases the numeric portion may be replaced by combinations No.\ 30 to maintain the seven character format. .PP The transit centre identification code will be returned automatically in all cases and will continue as far as the calling country. If several transit centres are involved in setting up a call, the calling network will receive the codes of these transit centres one after the other. This information is useful for retracing the route followed by a call (for traffic statistics, international accounts and the clearing of faults). .RT .PP \fB5\fR To simplify the solution of problems raised by overflow (increased congestion of systems, risk that the call may return back to the original exchange) overflow for each call will be allowed at only one centre. .sp 9p .RT .PP \fINote\fR \ \(em\ The rigour of this rule could be eased by admitting alternative (2nd choice) routings in certain traffic relations. This question will be discussed when the routing plans are established. .PP \fB6\fR A transit centre will have to be advised: .sp 9p .RT .LP 1) that an incoming call is: .LP a) a telex call (between telex subscribers), .LP b) a gentex call (between gentex stations), .LP c) a call, generally originating from a switchboard operator or from maintenance staff, to a manual switchboard or service point. This class\(hyof\(hytraffic signal is to be used if signalling conditions for calls to manual switchboards or other service points in the destination network are different from those returned on calls to subscribers, .LP d) a special category call (see \(sc\(sc\ 7.1 and 7.2 below); .LP 2) that the call concerned has already been subjected to overflow. .PP Other possibilities must be reserved, such as routing via telegraph circuits for\ 100 or\ 200\ bauds, and a reserve supply of class\(hyof\(hytraffic signals has been envisaged to this end. .sp 2P .LP \fB7\fR \fBClass\(hyof\(hytraffic signal\fR .sp 1P .RT .PP 7.1 The class\(hyof\(hytraffic signals are divided into two categories: .sp 9p .RT .PP \fICategory\ A:\fR \ Signals for transmission at 50\ bauds, the utilization of which is allocated as shown in Tables\ 4/U.11 and\ 5/U.11. .PP \fICategory\ B:\fR \ Signals reserved to meet future uses, not yet defined, such as use of circuits for more than 50\ bauds. .RT .PP 7.1.1 The signals of category\ A are characterized by Z\ polarity of the first element; the signals under category\ B are characterized by A\ polarity of the first element. .PP 7.1.2 For category\ A signals the second and third elements are associated to discriminate the four following categories: telex, gentex, service traffic and a special category (see Note under \(sc\ 7.2). .bp .PP 7.1.3 For the signals of category\ A as well as for those of category\ B, the polarity of the fourth element indicates whether or not the call has already been overflowed. .PP 7.1.4 For the signals of category\ A as well as for those of category\ B, the fifth element must always have an A\ polarity in order to avoid the use as a class\(hyof\(hytraffic (COT) signal of the special signals, combination\ No.\ 20 (calling signal) and combination\ No.\ 30 (special pre\(hysignal). .PP 7.2 Table\ 5/U.11 indicates the combinations used for class\(hyof\(hytraffic and class\(hyof\(hytraffic\(hycheck signals . .sp 9p .RT .PP \fINote\fR \ \(em\ For 50\(hybaud transmissions during which an alphabet with a non\(hy5\(hyunit code could be used, to avoid routing through time\(hydivision multiplex channels see the Recommendation cited S.15\ [3]. .PP 7.3 The class\(hyof\(hytraffic combination for a previously alternatively routed call shall be inserted by the switching equipment in the centre at which overflow occurs. .sp 9p .RT .PP \fB8\fR The ability of the forward signalling path of the trunk to transmit 5\(hyunit signals is checked by using complementary class\(hyof\(hytraffic and class\(hyof\(hytraffic\(hycheck (COTC) signals. The two combinations of the transmission\(hyconfirmation signal are also complementary and provide a similar check of the backward signalling path. Failure to receive the reception\(hyconfirmation and transmission\(hyconfirmation signals correctly within 5\ seconds from the start of the calling signal, or receipt of the transmission\(hyfailure signal, should initiate the automatic retest signal on the circuit concerned. .sp 9p .RT .PP \fB9\fR The equipment of centre\ Y should preferably begin the forward selection as soon as the first digit of the called number has been registered, but in the case of 2\(hydigit destination codes forward selection may be postponed until the second digit of the called number has been registered.

The circuit should be marked \fIunavailable\fR for outgoing traffic and the retest signal should be transmitted over the forward signalling path as shown in Table\ 1/U.11. .bp .sp 9p .RT .PP 10.2 The circuit should be tested up to five times at nominal intervals of\ 1.0 or 1.2\ minutes and a check should be made to confirm the receipt of backward path signals up to and including the transmission\(hyconfirmation signal in response to each test. If a valid transmission\(hyconfirmation signal has not been received at the end of this first group of tests, the retest will continue with a further group of up to five tests at either 5.0/6.0\(hy or 30/36\(hyminute intervals. If 5.0\(hy or 6.0\(hyminute intervals are used and a valid transmission\(hyconfirmation signal has not been received at the end of this second group of tests, a further group of up to nominally five retests will be made at\ 30\(hy or 36\(hyminute intervals. An alarm will be given at an appropriate time. However, this retest procedure may be discontinued at any stage at the discretion of the outgoing Administration. .PP 10.3 If, however, during the above sequence of retests a valid transmission\(hyconfirmation signal is received, a clearing signal shall be transmitted in the place of the retest signal. Following a valid clear\(hyconfirmation signal, the incoming and the outgoing sides of the trunk circuit should not be returned to service until after expiry of the appropriate guard delay time. .PP 10.4 In order to cater for the possibility that a faulty circuit may be seized at both ends, the automatic retest equipment should be arranged to allow an incoming call to be received during the start polarity period of the automatic retest signals. Administrations may however ignore such calls which occur during the incoming guard delay period. .PP 10.5 Where an exchange has knowledge of a transmission system failure, it is desirable that retest signals shall not be applied to the circuits affected. .PP 10.6 The intervals between the tests at the two ends of the trunk route should be made different to be sure that successive retests do not overlap at both ends. In general, the intercontinental transit centre having the higher F.69\ [4] telex destination code should take the longer interval (i.e.\ 1.2, 6 and\ 36\ minutes). Nevertheless, when this requirement would entail considerable difficulty, alternative arrangements may be adopted by agreement between the two Administrations concerned. .PP \fB11\fR A guard delay of 1\ second will be maintained during which incoming calls will not be accepted, and a guard delay of 2\ seconds will be maintained during which outgoing calls will not be offered, from the moment when start polarity appears on both signalling paths. This start polarity should be maintained throughout the guard period, on both signalling paths of the international circuit. .sp 9p .RT .PP Where modern electronic switching equipment is used at both ends of a circuit, the above figures for incoming and outgoing guard delay periods may be reduced to\ 0.5 and 1\ second respectively. .PP \fINote\fR \ \(em\ In the case of error\(hycorrected radiotelegraph systems the guard period should be measured from the moment that the appropriate number of \(*a\ signals has been transmitted and received in accordance with Recommendation\ U.20, \(sc\ 8.3. .RT .PP \fB12\fR The receiving equipment congestion signal should be returned on not more than\ 0.4% of calls in the busy hour and the equipment should ensure that this signal is returned only when receiving equipment congestion is positively identified, and not in the case of a fault in the register access equipment. .sp 9p .RT .PP Receipt of a receiving equipment congestion signal by a transit centre either on the first attempt or after a single recall (either on the same route or on an alternative route) should cause the transit failure signal to be returned to the calling network. .PP \fB13\fR The incoming equipment should be arranged to maintain start polarity on the backward path if the first character of the selection signal is spurious as indicated either by a character other than a class\(hyof\(hytraffic signal or the pre\(hysignal combination\ No.\ 30 (see Note to Table\ 2/U.11). .sp 9p .RT .PP The incoming equipment may release the connection if any of the consecutive combinations of the calling and selection signals is delayed for five or more seconds. In this case the transit failure signal should be returned after the reception confirmation, the transmission confirmation and transit centre identification code signals ; and be followed by the clearing signal. .PP An Administration may release the connection or recall if the transit centre identification code from the next transit centre has not been returned within three seconds after the receipt of the transmission confirmation signal. .bp .RT .PP \fB14\fR The normal time (i.e. without taking account of the supplementary delay which could be introduced by operation of ARQ\ equipment) required to switch through a transit centre measured from the beginning of the receipt of the calling signal to the offering of the calling signal on the outgoing route varies from\ 1200 to 1500\ milliseconds (according to the number of digits to be examined), plus the time required to position the selectors. (This time is independent of the transmission delay of the transmission system.) The time required to position the selectors should not exceed 800\ milliseconds. .sp 9p .RT .PP \fB15\fR For signalling purposes on international circuits that will be used between the international exchange of the terminal country and an intercontinental transit centre, several solutions are available to the Administrations concerned. The choice between the solutions must be the subject of agreement between the terminal country and the country handling the intercontinental transit. These solutions will result from the following considerations: .sp 9p .RT .LP a) Whether the routing towards the intercontinental transit centre (or from the intercontinental transit centre) would be made through the continental centre adjacent to the intercontinental transit centre in the transit country (in this case the access prefix\ 00 should be used). .LP b) Alternatively, whether the routing would be made directly from the international terminal centre towards the intercontinental centre and vice versa. .LP c) Whether the international circuits between the terminal country and the transit country would be operated only as outgoing or incoming circuits or whether it would be possible to operate them in both directions for setting up calls. .LP d) Whether the signalling system on these circuits would be the one that is used for automatic traffic between the terminal country and the transit country, the transit country being responsible for making the conversion of this signalling system according to type\ C, Table\ 1/U.11 signals on the intercontinental circuits and vice versa. .LP e) Alternatively, whether this signalling would be established according to type\ C signalling. .LP f ) It is permitted to transmit over the intercontinental transit network the digits of the called station number (except the first one or two digits) as and when received from the calling subscriber. It is to be noted, however, that in that case backward path signals may be received by the calling subscriber or operator during his selection. This may prevent correct printing of the forward and backward path signals and even lead to mutilation of the forward selection signals. This difficulty, as well as unnecessary loading of the intercontinental transit network by selection faults and slow selection can be avoided by assembling the subscriber's selection information, preferably in the originating network. .PP To give some guidance to Administrations Tables\ 2/U.11 and 3/U.11 below have been set up. Table\ 2/U.11 corresponds to the case of access to the intercontinental transit centre through the adjacent continental centre. Table\ 3/U.11 corresponds to the case of direct access to the intercontinental transit centre with unidirectional circuits.

The first part, designated as the network selection signals, contains information regarding network and subscriber requirements and may be composed of one or more characters (see Tables\ 2/U.12, 3/U.12, 4/U.12, 4a/U.12, 5/U.12 and\ 5a/U.12). The second part comprises the address signals (the called subscriber number, which is preceded by the destination code in the case of a transit call). The network selection signals used in the forward direction (see also Appendix\ II) are further subdivided and assembled as follows (\(sc\(sc\ 3.5.1 to 3.5.4 below) for signalling purposes: .sp 9p .RT .sp 1P .LP 3.5.1 \fIFirst class\(hyof\(hytraffic character\fR | (see Table\ 2/U.12) .sp 9p .RT .PP The calling signal is always followed by at least one class\(hyof\(hytraffic character.

If there is a need for indication of further requirements, a second class\(hyof\(hytraffic character may be used. Whether the second class\(hyof\(hytraffic and user\(hyclass characters follow or not will be indicated by the bits\ b\d3\uand\ b\d4\uof the first class\(hyof\(hytraffic character. .RT .sp 1P .LP 3.5.2 \fIUser\(hyclass character\fR | (see Table\ 3/U.12) .sp 9p .RT .PP This character, if used, will follow the first class\(hyof\(hytraffic character and will be required when, for example, this information cannot be derived from the incoming line. Whether a second user\(hyclass character follows or not will be indicated by the bits\ b\d1\u, b\d2\uand\ b\d3\uof the first user\(hyclass character. When seven user classes in Table\ 3/U.12 are not sufficient, a second user\(hyclass character may be added by means of an escape character.

The number of these class\(hyof\(hytraffic characters depends on the number of user facilities available. The bit\ b\d4\uof the second or subsequent class\(hyof\(hytraffic characters will indicate whether another class\(hyof\(hytraffic character follows or not. .RT .sp 1P .LP 3.5.4 \fIClosed user group character\fR | (see Tables\ 5/U.12 and 5a/U.12) .sp 9p .RT .PP \fBclosed user group\fR is defined as follows: A number of users of a public switched communication service who have the facility that they can communicate with each other but access is barred to and from all other users of the service. .PP \fINote\ 1\fR \ \(em\ A special facility, permitting a user in a closed group to call any other user connected to a public switched communication service or to any other network with which interworking is permitted, may be offered.

Access to users of this facility is restricted to other members of the closed user group. .RT .LP The start of closed user group character would precede the closed user group number which would be coded into a number of hexadecimal characters up to a maximum of four (see Table\ 5/U.12). .PP \fINote\ 2\fR \ \(em\ Further study is required concerning administrative aspects of the method to provide the closed user group facility. .PP 3.5.5 The numerical characters used for the second part of the selection signals are shown in Table\ 6/U.12. When the first class\(hyof\(hytraffic character indicates a terminal call, the Recommendation\ F.69\ [3] telex destination code will be omitted. .bp .PP 3.6 The incoming equipment should maintain start polarity on the backward signalling path by releasing the connection if the first received character is spurious, as indicated by a character other than a valid first class\(hyof\(hytraffic signal. This procedure prevents the possibility of regarding a second selection signal as a first class\(hyof\(hytraffic character and provides a further safeguard against false calls. .sp 9p .RT .PP In the case of receipt of a spurious signal as indicated by a parity error or by a character other than a valid selection signal (with the exception of the first class\(hyof\(hytraffic signal), the incoming equipment should return the service signal No.\ 20\ (\fBNC\fR ) to the preceding centre \(em\ after the reception\(hyconfirmation and the network identification signal (Recommendation\ F.69\ [3])\ \(em followed by the clearing signal. .PP The incoming equipment may release the connection if all of the selection signals are not correctly received within a period of 15\ seconds from the reception of the first class\(hyof\(hytraffic signal. In this event, the service signal No.\ 20\ (\fBNC\fR ) is returned to the preceding centre, followed by the clearing signal. .RT .PP 3.7 For the address signals, i.e. the destination code and the national number, the maximum number of digits to be expected is\ 12. .sp 9p .RT .PP 3.8 In the case of receipt of the reception\(hycongestion signal at a transit centre, the service signal No.\ 61\ (\fBNC\fR ) should be returned to the preceding centre (after the reception\(hyconfirmation and the network identification signal) and followed by the clearing signal. .sp 9p .RT .PP 3.9 The network identification signal shall be sent following the reception\(hyconfirmation signal. .sp 9p .RT .PP If several networks are involved in setting up a call, the calling network will receive the network identification signals one after the other. If a transit centre fails to receive the first character of a network identification signal within two seconds of the reception\(hyconfirmation signal, it will return the service signal No.\ 20\ (\fBNC\fR ) to the preceding centre, followed by the clearing signal. The network identification signals could be useful for retracing the route followed by a call (for traffic statistics, international accounts, analyses of unsuccessful calls and the clearing of faults). .PP It is possible for a transit centre to receive backward path signals, such as network identification signals, a call\(hyconnected signal or service signals, from subsequent centres whilst the backward path signals originated locally are still being sent. It is necessary for the transit centre to ensure that the received signals are retransmitted to the preceding centre without mutilation or loss. This can be ensured if the forward seizure does not occur before complete transmission of the reception confirmation signal. .RT .PP 3.10 The backward path signals indicating effective and ineffective call conditions are scheduled in Tables\ 7/U.12, 7a/U.12 and\ 7b/U.12. .sp 9p .RT .PP 3.11 If the last backward path signalling character, call\(hyconnected, or service signal is not received within 90\ seconds from the end of selection, then the service signal No.\ 20\ (\fBNC\fR ) will be returned to the preceding centre and followed by the clearing signal. .sp 9p .RT .PP 3.12 If the called station is not able to receive information immediately, the return of the start\(hyof\(hytransit\(hythrough\(hyconnect or call\(hyconnected signals to the calling station should be delayed accordingly (up to a maximum of 3\ seconds for telex in accordance with Recommendation\ S.9\ [4]). .sp 9p .RT .PP 3.13 In this type of signalling, originating and terminating national centres contain the identification of the calling or called subscribers respectively. These identifications may be exchanged within the network as an optional subscriber's feature. .sp 9p .RT .PP In the case of a call terminating in a network with a signalling standard other than type\ D, and hence called line identification is not available, the last type\ D centre in the connection should send only the call\(hyconnected signal in response to a request for the called line identification. The last type\ D centre may be either an international transit centre, the last international gateway or a national type\ D centre. .bp .PP In the case of a call originating in a network with a signalling standard other than type\ D, and hence the calling line identification is not available, the first type\ D centre in the connection should send only the end\(hyof\(hyline\(hyidentification signal (CSC character No.\ 12) in response to a request for the line identification. The corresponding printed service signal to indicate the absence of the line identification to the calling or called subscriber as appropriate is\ \fBNI\fR . .RT .PP 3.14 The call connected signal confirms that the call is extended to the called subscriber and, if applicable, that the calling line identification has been completely received by the terminating centre and passed to the called suscriber and, when applicable, that the called line identification has been completely transmitted to the originating centre (see Appendix\ III). .sp 9p .RT .PP Regardless of the action taken on calling and/or called line identifications, tripping of the called subscribers answerback is required. Normally this is initiated by the originating type\ D centre. The rules for taking the called subscribers answerback in interworking cases are given in Recommendation\ U.15. .PP Return of the answerback is supervised by the originating centre. If it does not arrive within 6\ seconds of the commencement of the WRU sequence, the originating centre returns the \fBDER\fR \ signal in International Telegraph Alphabet No.\ 2\ (ITA2) to the calling subscriber and clears the connection. .PP The WRU\ signal confirms that the call\(hyconnected signal has been received by the originating centre and, when applicable, that the called line identification has been completely received by the originating centre and passed to the calling subscriber (see Appendix\ III). .PP The call\(hyconnected signal is sent on the backward path by the terminating centre, the WRU\ signal is sent by the originating centre to the called subscriber, but not before the calling subscriber is ready to receive the answerback signal. .PP The connection must be switched through in the originating centre and in the terminating centre within the timings shown in Appendix\ III. .PP In transit centres the connection can be switched through earlier provided that losses and mutilations of characters are avoided. .PP Connect\(hythrough procedures at centres where interworking between type\ D and other standards takes place are described in Recommendation\ U.15. .PP Complete network through\(hyconnection is assured when the called subscriber's answerback is received by the calling terminal. .RT .PP 3.15 The guard delays on clearing are measured from the moment when start polarity has been established on both signalling paths by: .sp 9p .RT .LP \(em either recognizing or transmitting the clearing signal on one signalling path, and .LP \(em either transmitting or recognizing the clear\(hyconfirmation signal on the other signalling path. .PP On all type\ D signalling paths the guard period for incoming calls should be a period of 3\(hy4\ characters. A new call shall not be accepted until this guard period has elapsed. This is on the assumption that the terminating centre will be able to accept the first selection signal after a negligible period of stop polarity and will also be able to return the reception\(hyconfirmation signal within a negligible delay after the receipt of the first class\(hyof\(hytraffic character. .PP On all type\ D signalling paths the guard period for outgoing calls should be a period of at least eight\ characters. If centres are able to distinguish between the different clearing conditions, shorter periods may be introduced accordingly. .RT .PP 3.16 The automatic retest signal will be initiated as indicated in \(sc\ 3.4\ above. .sp 9p .RT .PP The circuit should be marked \fIunavailable\fR | for outgoing traffic and should be tested up to five\ times at nominal intervals of 1.0\ minute or 1.2\ minutes and a check made to confirm the receipt of a reception\(hyconfirmation signal in response to each test. If a valid reception\(hyconfirmation signal has not been received at the end of this first group of tests, the retest will continue with a further group of up to five\ tests at either\ 5.0/6.0\(hy or 30/36\(hyminute intervals. If 5.0\(hy or 6.0\(hyminute intervals are used and a valid reception\(hyconfirmation signal has not been received at the end of this second group of tests, a further group of up to nominally five\ retests will be made at 30\(hy or 36\(hyminute intervals. An alarm will be given at an appropriate time. However, this retest procedure may be discontinued at any stage at the discretion of the outgoing Administration. .bp .PP If, however, during the above sequence of retests, a valid reception\(hyconfirmation signal is received, a clearing signal will be transmitted in the place of the retest signal. Following a valid clear\(hyconfirmation signal, the incoming and the outgoing sides of the trunk circuit should not be returned to service until after expiry of the appropriate guard delay time. In order to cater for the possibility that a faulty circuit may be seized at both ends, the automatic retest equipment should be arranged to allow an incoming call to be received during the start polarity period of the automatic retest signals. Administrations may, however, ignore such calls that occur during the incoming guard delay period. Where an exchange has knowledge of a transmission system failure, it is desirable that retest signals shall not be applied to the affected circuits. .PP The intervals between the tests at the two ends of the trunk circuit should be made different to be sure that successive retests do not overlap at both ends. In general, the international/intercontinental transit centre having the higher Recommendation\ F.69\ [3] telex destination code should take the longer interval (i.e.\ 1.2, 6 and 36\ minutes). The tolerance on all above time intervals is \(+- | 0%. Nevertheless, when this requirement would entail considerable difficulty, alternative arrangements may be adopted by agreement between the two Administrations concerned. .PP The use of a special first class\(hyof\(hytraffic character for retest permits the incoming centre to be informed about retests on its incoming circuits. .RT .PP 3.17 If at the receiving end parity does not check, provisionally the connection should be cleared down unless otherwise specified. However, the possibility of different actions remains open for further study. .sp 9p .RT .LP .rs .sp 36P .ad r Blanc .ad b .RT .LP .bp .ce \fBH.T.

Where a bilateral agreement exists between Administrations to use TCICs on a type\ A signalling route, then these may be converted by the last type\ D exchange to the NIC format at the discretion of the Administration of that exchange. This requires that the TCIC must always use the standard Administration's identification letter(s) as recommended in Recommendation\ U.11, \(sc\ 4 and defined in the ITU publication List of Indicators for the Telegraph Retransmission System and Telex Network Identification Codes, Part\ A (Recommendation\ F.60, \(sc\ 3.4.2.4 refers). .sp 9p .RT .LP \fIRule\ 2\fR \ \(em\ Non\(hystandard information, e.g.\ type\ A register codes will be absorbed by the last type\ D exchange.

It is necessary to overcome this difficulty by delaying the forwarding of selection in relation to the activities on the backward path. .PP The third COT character should be sent by the first type\ D exchange to indicate (by bit\ \fIb\fR\d1\u) to the following type\ D exchanges that a delay of forward selection is necessary, since the call has been received from a non\(hytype\ D signalling standard for which conversion of NICs to TCICs is required. .PP Figure 1/U.15 shows the timing diagram of this protocol. .PP \fINote\ 1\fR \ \(em\ TCICs received from distant type\ C links would pass through the type\ D links with the appropriate conversion.
