2 USING THE CRAFT INTERFACE
After the initial installation of a Soneplex Broadband system, most testing and local
operations are conducted with the Craft Interface through a VT-100 compatible terminal. This
terminal is connected either to the front panel of the MPU plug-in module, or through a port
located on the rear of the Soneplex Broadband chassis. Both of these connecting points
provide a standard EIA-232C interface.
When you are configuring the Soneplex Broadband system, monitoring alarms, or clearing
trouble, the TOP procedure guides you through a series of menu commands using the Craft
Interface. The Main Menu on the Craft Interface lists all the major functions, while sub-menus
further break down the functions. The menu structure is shown in Figure 1-1.
