Setting this bit-field to “0” configures the Transmit SONET POH Processor block to set the REI-P bit-fields
(within the G1 byte of the “outbound” STS-1 SPE); to a value the reflects the number of bits (within the B3
byte) that were determined to be in error (within the most recently received STS-1 SPE) by the corresponding
Receive SONET POH Processor block. In this case, the REI-P bit-fields can range in value from “0” (for no
B3 bit errors) to “8” (for all B3 bits being in error).
Setting this bit-field to “1” configures the Transmit SONET POH Processor block to set the REI-P bit-fields
(within the G1 byte of the ‘outbound”STS-1 SPE); to a value that indicates whether or not at least one B3 byte
error was detected within the most recently received STS-1 SPE; by the corresponding Receive SONET POH
Processor block. In this mode, the Transmit SONET POH Processor block will set the “REI-P” bit-fields
(within the outbound STS-1 SPE) to “0” if the corresponding “Receive SONET POH Processor” block is not
detecting any B3 byte errors, in its incoming STS-1 data-stream. Conversely, the Transmit SONET POH
Processor block will set the “REI-P” bit-fields (within the “outbound” STS-1 SPE) to “1” if the corresponding
Receive SONET POH Processor block receives an STS-1 SPE that contains a B3 byte error.

Configuring the Transmit SONET POH Processor block to transmit the REI-P Indicator,
upon software control
The user can configure the Transmit SONET POH Processor block to transmit the REI-P indicator (per
software command) by executing the following steps.
STEP 1- Write the value “[0, 1]” into Bits 5 and 6 (REI-P Insertion Type[1:0]) within the “Transmit
SONET Path SONET Control Register – Byte 0”; as depicted below.

This step configures the “Transmit SONET POH Processor” block to automatically read out the contents of
Bits 4 through 7 (of the Transmit SONET Path – G1 Byte Value” register) and write the value of these bits into
bits 1 through 4 (of the G1 byte) within the “outbound” STS-1 SPE. The bit-format of the “Transmit SONET
Path – G1 Byte Value” register (with the appropriate bits “shaded”) is presented below.

In this mode, the user can transmit an “un-erred” REI-P value by setting Bits 4 through 7 (within the Transmit
SONET Path – Transmit G1 Byte Value” register) to [0, 0, 0, 0]. Conversely, the user can transmit an “erred”
REI-P value by setting Bits 4 through 7 (within the Transmit SONET Path – Transmit G1 Byte Value” register)
to some value between 1 and 8.
