Front Panel Interface 5-7
5
The ConÞguration Menu is used to view and change the unit's
conÞguration parameters, date and time, network interface parameters,
and DTE interface parameters.
Both the Monitor and ConÞguration Menus are also able to access the
remote unit. Remote monitoring and conÞguration are only available when
there is an ADL (Application Data Link) channel to the remote unit. When
the user requests status or conÞguration information from the remote unit,
the local unit sends a request to the remote unit over ADL, and waits for a
reply. While waiting for the reply, the local unit displays the message:
PLEASE WAIT...
On the front panel. If there is no reply from the remote unit within 10
seconds, the display of the local unit will show:
REMOTE NOT AVAILABLE
Otherwise, the information reported by the remote unit will be displayed.
SELECT REMOTE/SELECT LOCAL
Pressing the Down Arrow cursor button when the default message is in the
display brings the message SELECT REMOTE or R, SELECT LOCAL to the
display. This allows the user to log onto either the local or remote DL3800.
When logged onto the local unit, the display will read SELECT REMOTE.
When logged onto the remote unit, the display will read R,SELECT LOCAL.
To change the DL3800 being monitored and controlled, press the ENTER
button. The message in the display will start blinking. Press the ENTER
button once again to change from SELECT REMOTE, R or SELECT LOCAL.
DISPLAY MENU
The DISPLAY Menu is used for displaying Node status, DTE status and the
status of each installed T1 line. It is also used to clear the error counters
(Clearing the error counters can only be done when the DL3800 is not in
the Protected Mode).
NOTE: When logged onto the remote unit, an R, will appear as the
first two characters in the display For example: R,NET1 STATISTICS
