The invention relates to a circuit arrangement for setting up connections to private branch exchange subscribers in which a final selector arranged for such trafiic is operated and is enabled to select a tree outgoing line by means of switching devices which are adapted to be placed under the control of switching devices belonging to a preceding switching stage. A
The invention more particularly concerns a development of this idea and enables the method of operating iinal selectors modified for P. B. X. working to be considerably simplified, especially in -telephone systems having the local traiiic separated from the toll traiiic in that a testing device is provided which is common to the switches of two consecutive connecting stages. Preferably this common testing device is associated with the switch belonging to the first of these two stages.
In the examplesdaown in the drawings, comprising Figs. l-3, inclusive, the invention is applied to a system, in which the local tratic and the toll traiiic are dealt with over separate connecting routes. t
Such a systeinis shown diagrammatlcally in Fig. 3 from which it can be seen that a call originated by a subscriber Tn is connected through, inpknown manner, over first and second local preselectors and over the group selectors of the different connecting stages (I to III OGW), to a local final selector OLW. The local final selector OLW is set on the contact of the private branch exchange MA and then starts up a group of backwardly hunting switches ONW, each of which is associated with an exchange line of the private branch exchange MA, these switches then hunting for the final selector OLW that has been operated.
A toll call incoming to a toll exchange, is switched through to the automatic exchange by the toll operator by means of the toll conf necting plug Fst and the jack KZ; andas can be seen, the connection is further set up over a first toll preselector FVW and over the succeeding group selectors of the different .connecting stages (I to III FGW) and over the toll final selector FLW to the number of the wanted P. B. X. subscriber MA. All the toll final selectors FLW are provided with a hunting switch FNW for each P. B. X. which switch is started up by the toll fina-l selector and selects a line that happens to be freebr only rendered busy by a local call. The toll final selector FLW makes the test to ascertain whether the P. B. X. lines are ree or rendered busy by `a local call and also controls the hunting movement of the succeeding toll switches FNW.
Fig. l shows the toll final selector FLW in detail while Fig. 2 shows the toll switch FNW located beyond the toll final selector and shows the corresponding switch ONW located in the local route.
The circuits are based on the known earth impulse system.
It will be assumed that an incoming toll call received by way of the toll exchange FA 0 andto be made to the P. B. X. subscriber MA connected to the lines shown in Fig. 2 has been set up as far as the taking into use of the toll final selector FLW (Fig. l)
The relays A and B are operated over the leads 1, 2 and 3 when the toll final selector FLW is taken into use by a preceding third group selector. At the contact 4b the slow acting relay C is connected up in a circuit extending from earthover the side switch contact 5 in position l, contact 4b and the winding of the slow acting relay C to battery. At contact 6c the relay C connects itself to a holding circuit not dependent on the side switch contact 5 and at its contact 7c it opens 85 the test lead 3 coming from the third group selector. At the contact 80 the relay C prepares a circuit for the test relay T, which' at first remains short circuited by earth at the side switch contact 9 in the positions 1 4. 90.
When a train of impulses is now transmitted from the toll exchange for setting the toll final selector FLW the leads 1 and 2 are earthed in known manner when the nger dial is rotated forwards. Hence the relay B releases and at its contact 10b connectsup the winding I of the relay X over the contact 11a of the energized relay A and over the side switch contact 13 in position l. At its contact 14m the relay X prepares a circuit 100 for the vertical magnet H. During the return motion of the number dial the relay A releases a number of times corresponding to the number of impulses sent,.so that the vertical magnet is operated over the circuit: earth, contacts b, 12a, 14m and side switch contact in sition 1, and raises the switch to the desire level. At the end of the train of impulses the relay B is again operated over the lead 2 and-its winding I, and at its contact 10b disconnects the relay X and at its contact 166 closes a circuit for therelay F of the side switch extending from earth over the contacts 1Gb, 17 of the side switch in position 1, the closed oil normal contact 18k, the windin of the relay F and the resistance 1910 tol attery. The side switch relay F operates and at its contact 20j it connects u the side switch ma et S. The side switc. magnet S brings t e side switch into position 2 and at its contact 218 short circuits the relay F, thereby causing it to release. The slow actin relay C holds itself over the contact 22a; w en the relay B is released. The next train of impulses causes the rotary inagnet to operate in the circuit: earth, contacts 10b, 12a, 14m and the side switch contact 23 in position 2, hence the wipers 24, 25 and 26 of the toll final selector FLW are rotated into engagement with the contacts 27 28, and 29 belon'gin to the calling number of the P. B. X. su scriber MA, whereupon the switch shaft closes the contact 30m/7c. At the end of the train of impulses, the relay B is again energized over its winding I; at the contact 10b it disconnects the relay X and at the contact 1Gb it connects up the side switch relay F in a circuit which now extends from earth over contact 166, the side switch contact 31 in position 2 and the closed shaft contact 32u. The side switch arms are thus moved into position 3 by the side switch magnet S in the manner already described.
The toll operator at the toll exchange. FA
has now transmitted all the trains of impulses for positioning the switches and for initiating the testing operation she presses a test key, provided in known manner, whereby earth is applied to the lead 2. Hence the relay B at the toll final selector FLW is deenergized and causes the slow acting relay X to operate over earth, the contacts 10b, 11a the side switch contact 13 in position 3 and the winding I of the relay X. The relay F of the side switch is now energized over earth, contact 33?), side switch contact 34 in position 3 and contact 35a, and the side switch moves into Pposition 4. In this position the test relay is connected over contact 360, the side switch contact 37 in position 4 and the test wiper 26 and contact 29 to the testtacts 39t, 40p, 30M, the side switchcontact 41 1n position 4, wiper 25., contact 28 the lead 42, the contacts 43a and 44d and the windin of the relay R of the toll switch FNW ig. 2) to battery. The switch FNW 1s thereby started up. The slow acting relays V and C1 are connected up from earth over contact 451', winding of the rela s V and C1, battery. The rotary magnet 1 is connected up at the contact 461', and at contact 44d it opens the energizing circuit of the relay R, which therefore by opening its contact 461' again disconnects the rotary ma net D1. The wipers 47 48 and 49 of the tol switch FNIV have now taken one step and have reached for inst-ance the contacts 50 51 and 52. The testing that now takes p ace determines 'whether the switch FNW comes to rest or is moved on'step by step in the manner above described.
A preliminary testing takes placel over the speakin lead 53 at t e same time as the switch NW is started up; this test ascertains whether one or more exchange lines leading to the P. B. X. subscriber are free or whether all the lines happen to be engaged (locally or toll engaged). A contact 5401' of a relay C1 is closed at the auxiliary local switch ONW so lon as a line is free. The relay X at the toll nal selector is locked by its winding II in the circuit used for this preliminary test: earth, contacts 39t, 40p, 30min, winding II of the relay X, side switch contact 55 in position 4, wiper 24, Contact 27, lead 53, contact- 56151, resistance 57w, Contact 5407', starting relay A'nl of the local auxiliary group of switches ONW and battery. Thus by the opening of contact 67 a: the side switch lis prevented from leaving the position 4.
It will first be assumed that an exchange line is free and that therefore a contact 54er is closed. When the wipers 47, 48 and 49 of the toll switch FNW reach the contacts 50, 51 and 52 of this line, the relay P of the toll final selector operates in parallel with the high resistance winding of thel relay Cr,
(which is normally energized when the subscribers line 83, 84, 85 is free) the relay P being energized in the following circuit: earth, contact 360, side switch contact 37 in position 4, windings I and II of the relay P, wiper 26, contact 29, test lead 38, Wiper 49 of the toll switch FNW (Fig. 2), contact 52, lead 85, and thence in known manner to batteryT at the preselector belonging to the sul scribers line. The relay P at its contact 58p short circuits its high resistance winding I, and at contact 40p it disconnects earth from `the driving circuit for the toll switch FNW,
so that the switch is stopped. The relay V at the toll switch FNW (Fi 2) releases slowly, because it now remains s ort circuited at. thc contact 1071', and closes its contact 59o before opening the holding circuit at the contact 60o.
The relay T1 of the toll switch FNW is now energized in the following circuit: earth, battery, rotary magnet D1, wiper 61, contact 62, contacts 6301 and 591;, winding of relay T1, lead 38, Contact 29 and wiper 26 (Fig. l), winding II of the relay P, contact 58p, earth. Relay T1 (Fig. 2) switches through the speaking leads at the contacts 64151 and t1, and at the contact 66251 closes a holding circuit for the relay C1. At the contact 56161 moreover the holding circuit of the relay X is opened which circuit extends over winding II as above described. The relay'X at the toll iinal selector FLW (Fig. l) releases and closes its contact 67 so that the side switch is caused to move on into position 5 over contact 68 in position 4. The side switch beingin position 5, the relay T. (Figwl) operates, because its winding has a lower resistance than the holding winding H of the relay P; and at its contacts 6815 and 6915 switches through the speaking leads and closes its contact 7016. Hence the relay F of the side switch receives current from earth over contact. 7 015, and the side switch contact 71 position 5, so that the side switch arms move into position 6. The relay F again receives current over earth, contact 7 2p, and side switch contact 73 in position 6 and by means of the magnet S moves the side switch into position 7 and over the same contacts further into position 8.
At the toll exchange the toll operator now presses her testing key in order to call the selected P. B. X. subscriber MA, and thereby again applies earth to the speaking lead 2. Hence the relay B releases, and closes its c ontact 105, thereby energizing the ringing relay L over contact lla and side switch contact 74 in position 8. At its contacts 75l and 7 6l the relay L applies ringing current to the wanted subscribers line and closes its contact 77Z, hence the operator at the toll exchange receives a ring back tone over the windings of the relay Y. Tn position 8 of the side switch ythe speaking leads are switched through at the contacts 78 and 79 of the s ide switch, while the toll engaged potential, namely earth, is applied at the side switch contact 8O to the test lead of the subscribers line taken into use. Owing to this direct connection to earth, the relay P can no longer hold up and therefore releases.
When the P. B. X. subscriber MA. answers the call by taking down his receiver, he closes his line loop and the feeding relay Y is energized over both its windings, the contacts 81Z and 82Z, the side switch contacts 78 and 79 in position 8, the contacts 68t and 691?, the wipers 24 and 25, the contacts 27 and 28, the` leads 53 and 42, the contacts 64t1land 65H, the wipers 47 and 48, the contacts 50. and 51 and the leads 83 and 84. The relay Y at its contact 86g closes a further holding circuit for the relay C and at its contact 87 g/ it opens the circuit of the relay A. This therefore opens the circuit to`the toll exchange so that the operator is in known manner notified that the wanted subscriber has answered.
.It will now be assumed that no P. B. X. line is free when the toll final selector FLWy is set by the last train of impulses, but that they are all either locally or toll engaged. Hence the toll nal selector must test for a locally engaged line with the assistance of the auxiliary toll switch FNW, in order to render this line free for the high value call (toll call). As alread described the toll switch FN W was starte up and a preliminary test was performed over the lead 53 when the side switch was in position 4. In the present case, since no contact 5401l (Fig. 2) is now closed, a holding circuit cannot be established over the winding II of the relay X. Hence over the contact 67m and the side switch contact 68 in position 4, the side switch is at once moved on into the position 5. Tn this position the test relay P is disconnected from the test lead 38, but the test relay T is connected to the test lead over the side switch contact 88 in the position 5. This relay can only operate when the toll switch FNW reaches a contact connected to earth over a contact 98h and a resistance w90, which has a higher resistance than the relay T, that is to say when the toll switch FNW finds a locally engaged line. If the leads 83, 84 and 85 shown in Fig. 2 form' this locally engaged line, the relay T is energized over the contact 8c and over the resistance lw91 and at contact 39 it opens the driving circuit of the toll switch FNW and at the contacts 68t and 69t it switches through the speaking leads. Over contact t and the side switch contact 7]. in position 5, the side switch reaches position 6, in which the toll operator receives a locally engaged signal over the side switch contact. 92. The toll operator then notifies the B. X. subscriber MA engaged in a local call that there is a toll call for him and that she must therefore release his connection. She then presses the release key located at the toll exchange, thereby interrupting the lead l. Hence the relay A. at the toll linal selector FL`W releases and, over earth, contacts 701i, 93a, and side switch contact 94 in position 6causes the side switch to move on into position 7. In position 7 the test relay P is connected to the test lead 38 over earth, contact 36, and the side switch contact 37 in position 7 in place of the relay T, which locks itself in the before mentioned circuit. Furthermore over the side switch contacts 95 and 96 in position 7 an opposing potential is applied to the line loop of the subscriber MA engaged in the local call, hence his feeding relay (not shown) at the local final selector OLVV is de-energized and the release of the local connection is brought about. Hence the contact 98h (Fig. 2) is opened and the contact 97 t is closed. The test relay P at the toll final selector (Fig. l) now operates in )nel lil() parallel with the hi h resistance winding of the relay CR and s ort circuits its high resistance winding at the contact 58p. It also closes its contact 72p, thus enabling the side switch to move into position 8. The other circuit changes are t e same as before described.
If all the exchange lines of the subscriber MA are toll engaged, neither of the test relays P and T can operate and the side switch remains in the position 5, in which the toll operator receives a toll engaged signal over the side switch contact 98 and is thereby warned to release the connection. In response to the operators releasing the connection, the relays A and B release thus causing the relay C to be de--energized and at its contact 99o to close a circuit for the releasemag'.- net M: this circuit extends from earth over contact 99o, side switch Contact 100 in position 5 and the winding of the release magnet M to battery. Upon returning to normal the switch shaft closes the contact 101k, hence the relay F receives current over earth, contact 990, side switch contact- 100 in position 5, and off normal contact 101k, and the side' switch arms are moved into position 6. Over the same circuit the side switch is moved into position 7 and thence over contact 990 and the side switch lcontact 102 into positions 8 and 9. The side switch is moved from position 9 into position 10 over contact 990, the side switch contact 100 and off normal contact 1017s; the relay F now again receives current over earth, contact 331), and side switch contact 103; hence the side switch moves into position 11. From position 11 the side switch is returned to position 1 over contact 990, side switch conta-ct 100 and oil normal contact 101k. When the side switch leaves position 5 the driving circuit for the toll switch FNW (Fig. 2) is opened at the side switch contact 41; hence the slow acting relays V and C1 release. The rotary magnet D1 now receives impulses from earth, over the interrupter U, the contacts 10401, 62, etc., and the wiper 61, until the toll switch FNW reaches its normal position. It remains to be mentioned that in the side switch position 9, a releasing impulse is sent back from battery over the winding II of relay B, the contact 7 o, the contact 1057, and the contact 106vof the side switch; this impulse in known manner effects the release of the preceding switches.
After the connection has been established and the conversation has been completed, the release of the connection is brought about by hanging up the receiver. When the subscriber MA hangs up his receiver, the relay Y releases and at contact 86g/ it opens the circuit of the relay C. The remainder of the releasing operation takes place in the manner just above described.
What I claim is:
