Chapter 4 Provisioning the TimeProvider
Provisioning the Input Reference
Provisioning the SSM
Before you can read Synchronization Status Messages (SSMs) on certain input 
signals, you need to provision the TimeProvider to read the incoming SSM and 
identify the bit position of the SSM. SSMs are on the following types of input signals:
E1, CAS4, CCS4
T1, ESF
Reading SSMs
To enable the use of SSMs, you must first provision the TimeProvider to read SSMs 
on the input. Use the ED-SYNC command to enable the specified input to read SSMs.
ED-SYNC:[<tid>]:<aid>:[<ctag>]::<keyword>=<value>;
This command has a default access level of ADMIN.
Sample Command
ED-SYNC::INP1:TS1000::SSMENA=ENABLE;

Defining the SSM Bit Position
After you enable an E1 (CAS/CAS) input to read SSMs, you must then define the bit 
containing the SSM. 
ED-SYNC:[<tid>]:<aid>:[<ctag>]::<keyword>=<value>;
This command has a default access level of ADMIN.
Sample Command
ED-SYNC::INP1:TS1000::SSMBIT=4;
