*Abstract*
This is the description for the SGsAP v13.2.0 protocol module. The SGsAP v13.2.0 protocol modules are developed for the TTCN-3 Toolset with Titan. This document should be read together with the <<_2,Product Revision Information>>.
= Functionality
The SGsAP v13.2.0 protocol module implements the message structures of the <<_6,related protocol>> in a formalized way, using the standard specification language, TTCN-3. This allows defining of test data (templates) in the TTCN-3 language and correctly encoding/decoding messages when executing test suites using the Titan TTCN-3 test environment.
The SGsAP v13.2.0 protocol module uses <<_1,Titans RAW encoding attributes>> and hence is usable with the Titan test toolset only.
== Implemented protocols
This set of protocol modules implements protocol messages and constants of the SGsAP v13.2.0 protocol as described <<_6,here>>.
=== Modified and non-implemented Protocol Elements
None.
== Backward incompatibilities
None.
== System Requirements
Protocol modules are a set of TTCN-3 source code files that can be used as part of TTCN-3 test suites only. Hence, protocol modules alone do not put specific requirements on the system used. However, in order to compile and execute a TTCN-3 test suite using the set of protocol modules, the following system requirements must be satisfied:
* Titan TTCN-3 Test Executor version CRL 113 200/5 R4A (5.4.pl0) or higher installed. For Installation Guide, see <<_5,here>>.
NOTE: This version of the test port is not compatible with Titan releases earlier than CRL 113 200/5 R4A.
= Usage
== Installation
The set of protocol modules can be used in developing TTCN-3 test suites using any text editor; however, to make the work more efficient, a TTCN-3-enabled text editor is recommended (for example nedit, xemacs). Since the SGsAP v13.2.0 protocol is used as a part of a TTCN-3 test suite, this requires TTCN-3 Test Executor to be installed before the module can be compiled and executed together with other parts of the test suite. For more details on the installation of TTCN-3 Test Executor, see the relevant section of the <<_3,User Guide for TITAN TTCN-3 Test Executor>>.
== Configuration
None.
== Examples
None.
= Interface description
== Top Level PDU
The top level PDU is the TTCN-3 union PDU_SGsAP.
[[encoding-decoding-and-other-related-functions]]
== Encoding/decoding and other related functions
This product also contains encoding/decoding functions, which assure correct encoding of messages when sent from Titan and correct decoding of messages when received by Titan.
