Foreword
This European Telecommunication Standard (ETS) has been produced by the Terminal Equipment (TE)
Technical Committee of the European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI).
This ETS aims to meet the urgent requirements of network operators and equipment manufacturers who
are designing equipment to operate on an Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN).
This ETS also has a close relationship to ETSs 300 072 [10] to 300 076 [14] inclusive and to other
proposed ETSs currently under development within the TE Technical Committee (draft prETS 300 177
[19], draft prETS 300 149 [18] and final draft prETS 300 080 [15]). Full details of these documents are
given in Clause 2 (Normative references) of this document.
NOTE: Abstract testing requirements for this ETS are to be developed by ETSI.

1 Scope
This standard specifies the end-to-end protocols for the ISDN syntax-based Videotex Service.
NOTE 1: This standard does not specify any service aspects of the ISDN syntax-based Videotex
Service.
This standard is applicable to devices supporting the ISDN syntax-based Videotex, to be attached at either
side of a T reference point or coincident S and T reference points when used as an access to the public
ISDN. In this context, a device is either an ISDN Videotex Terminal, an ISDN Videotex Service Centre, an
ISDN Videotex Access Point or an ISDN Videotex Host (cf. subclause 3.1).
For the lower layer protocols (layer 1 to layer 3), this standard makes use of final draft
prETS 300 080 [15] (based on CCITT Recommendation T.90) for demand circuit-switched calls using the
64 kbit/s unrestricted digital information bearer capability and the DTE/DTE case of the Network Layer
peer entities in B-channel connection.
NOTE 2: The end-to-end protocol specified in this ETS is intended to be applicable not only for
the DTE/DTE connection over an ISDN.
2 Normative references
This ETS incorporates by dated or undated reference, provisions from other publications. These normative
references are cited at the appropriate places in the text and the publications are listed hereafter. For
dated references subsequent amendments to, or revisions of, any of these publications apply to this ETS

3 Definitions and abbreviations
3.1 Definitions
For the purposes of this standard, the following definitions apply:
Access Function: the functional entity which gives access to the Videotex Service. This entity is an
integral part of the Videotex Service.
Access Network: the network which provides the link between the Terminal Function and the Access
Function.
Audio data: generic term for data which can be made audible (e.g. wave form encoded, phonemically
encoded).
Distributed Videotex Application: a Videotex Application which makes use of more than one Videotex
Host.
Host Access Network: the network which provides the link between the Access Function and the Host
Function(s). It is an integral part of the Videotex Service and may be void.
Host Function: the abstraction of the Videotex Applications available in a particular Videotex Service.
Multi-media communication: term used to indicate that both pictorial and audio data are exchanged.
Pictorial data: generic term for data which can be displayed (e.g. alphamosaic, geometric, photographic).
Telematic Command: In the scope of this ETS, a Telematic Command is a specific service element which
is carried in a complete packet sequence of X.25 PLP DATA packets with the Q-bit set to 1. The
first octet in the User Data field of the first packet of the complete packet sequence carries a
value which is reserved for videotex (cf. draft CCITT Recommendation X.29 (1992), "Telematic
service message, videotex").
Terminal Function: the abstraction of a functional entity which acts as a Videotex Terminal.
Videotex Access Point: see CCITT Recommendation F.300 [1].
Videotex Application: see CCITT Recommendation F.300 [1].
Videotex External Host: see CCITT Recommendation F.300 [1].
Videotex Host: this term describes a computer which offers one or more applications and/or facilities. It
can be represented through a Videotex Host Computer, an External Videotex Host or a Videotex
Service Centre.
Videotex Host Computer: see CCITT Recommendation F.300 [1].
Videotex Service: see CCITT Recommendation F.300 [1].
Videotex Service Centre: see CCITT Recommendation F.300 [1].
NOTE: According to CCITT Recommendation F.300, a Videotex Service Centre provides host
and/or access functions, i.e. it may also act as a Videotex Access Point.
Videotex Terminal: see CCITT Recommendation F.300 [1].
