Using the Graphical User Interface
Figure 1-1. RADview ASMi-52 Window
In the above figure, one repeater is displayed. However, the ASMi-52 device may
include up to eight repeaters.
The RADview graphical user interface provides a dynamically updated graphical
representation of the Near End ASMi-52, the Far End modem, and the repeaters
that exist between them. ASMi-52 devices are displayed with their front and rear
panels, allowing you to monitor and manage their operations. The window
includes port interfaces and their operational and communication statuses, as well
as the devices’ LED indicator statuses. Configuration and monitoring can be done
at the system level, modem level, and port level.
Selecting Objects in the Window
You can select any of the following objects in the window:
• System (entire window) – Click the light blue frame surrounding the window.
• Modem (Far End or Near End) – Click the light blue frame surrounding the
desired device.
• Port [SHDSL link, ETH, E1/T1, DTE (V.35/X.21/RS-530), CONTROL] – Click
the light blue frame surrounding the desired port.

Displaying Near End and Far End Modems
The Near End (NE) device, the ASMi-52, is displayed with its front and back panel,
LEDs, and ports.
The Far End (FE) device is fully displayed as well if it is an ASMi-52/Master/Slave
device. Otherwise, an empty box is displayed with the FE modem name on it.
Whether the Far End is displayed depends on its modem type. Table 1-1 displays
the available Far End display options.
