Embodiment
Fig. 2 has shown a kind of line facility that is used to realize method of the present invention.Notice that except omitting described detection repeater 105, this line facility is not different significantly with line facility shown in Figure 1.
More detailed diagrammatic sketch with reference to the assembly in the frame of broken lines among Fig. 3 115 is explained method of the present invention.
By by described ringdown repeater 108 two the flow restricter resistance R A 201 and the RB 211 of power supply in turn, thereby described hybrid circuit 107 be described repeater 103 power supplies and powers for described telephone line.In order to simplify diagrammatic sketch, do not show power supply circuits 109.
Determined the direction of bias current at the bridge circuit that forms by two resistance R B1A 202 and RB2B 212 series connection between the output of the input of resistance R A and resistance R B and between the input of the output of resistance R A and resistance R B by the connect bridge circuit that forms of two resistance R B2A 203 and RB1B 213, in this area, as everyone knows, bias current has been indicated the off hook state and the hook state of the phone that is connected to described line facility.For reaching this purpose, the intermediate point of two branches of described bridge circuit is connected to the positive and negative input of comparator, this comparator has formed the basic module of offhooking detector circuit 112, when the input voltage Ve of this comparator suitably changed direction corresponding to 1 or 0 logical signal that is sending, the output 113 of this circuit was transmitted in the voltage Vs that switches between 0V and the X volt.And the first biasing resistor RAb 204 is connected to the mid point of resistor R B2A and RB1B with power Vcc, and the second biasing resistor RBb 214 makes the neutral earthing of RB1A and RB2B.Like this voltage Ve is fixed on minimum value and sentences the unsteadiness of avoiding comparator 112.
In order to make described system operate as normal, the resistance value of different resistance must meet the following conditions:
RA=RB<<RAb=RBb<<RB1A=RB1B=RB2A=RB2B
In order to test especially its hybrid circuit of described line facility, the present invention proposes by described repeater 103, described equipment and described circuit is disconnected, and then by described repeater 108, apply bell signal from ringing signal generator 205 to this equipment.Programme by the control computer of local office that described line facility is connected simply, just can carry out aforesaid operations.
The bell signal that is applied is preferably well known in the art to be comprised-signal without direct current component of 52V, and 80V has superposeed on this DC component RmsThe low-frequency ac component.
When the resistance of described hybrid circuit had nominal value, at the input of described circuit 112, described low-frequency ac component only produced several millivolts the residual alternating voltage of low amplitude.This component is far below bias voltage Ve, and this will prevent that the comparator in the described circuit 112 from changing state.
On the other hand, if any one among resistance R B1A, RB2A, RB1B or the RB2B in the described hybrid circuit 107 is defective, if promptly this resistance be open circuit or short circuit, if perhaps the value of this resistance changes significantly, then be superimposed upon the value of the value of the described alternating current component on the Ve greater than initial bias voltage, this causes the comparator in the described circuit 112 to come the change state with the frequency of the alternating current component of described bell signal.Therefore, a series of 1 and 0 logical signal that is constituted that described circuit 112 sends by the frequency that adopts this alternating current component detects mistake with indication.Described system can also detect the remarkable increase of the resistance value of open circuit or RA and RB.
Above-mentioned logical signal is with different fully corresponding to the logical signal of off-hook or on-hook operation, and the latter is in case generation is exactly the stabilization signal that no longer changes.Therefore, by detecting above-mentioned sequence, whether the hybrid circuit that the control computer of the described local office that described line facility connects can be easy to determine described line facility defectiveness.Similar to above-mentioned situation, this detection can realize by computer is programmed simply.
Therefore, the present invention has omitted described TSTTRK test trunk device 105 and the described bus and relevant electronic component of each line facility, and its cost is to increase several line codes in the program of the computer of the described local office that all line facilities connect.
The present invention also is applicable to the line facility that has replaced described repeater with semiconductor switch circuit.
