On-Line Operation
Introduction
After you have properly installed the DAP and defined its operating parameters, it can
begin transmitting data. This chapter describes the different procedures that you can
perform while the DAP is operating on-line. These include monitoring current operating
status, establishing dial backup connections, and sending call messages. This chapter
also lists the different types of alarms that the DAP can report during on-line operation.
Monitoring Operating Status
The Excalibur Multirate DAP has extensive monitoring capabilities that let you check the
current operating status of the local or remote DAP at the touch of a button. To monitor
the DAP's operating status, follow these steps, starting from the Top Level menu:
1. Press the 1 or 2 button depending on which DAP (local or remote) you wish to
monitor.
Note: Monitoring remote status is interruptive when the service is set for DDS.
