Verifying Operation and
Testing Connections
Verification testing should be performed after any
installation.
After installing and configuring the circuit (including
control and tributary DSUs, the DDS network, the DBMs
and their dial connections), perform the following series
of tests from the control DSU to verify network operation
(using either the DCP or NMS).
Verifying Network Addresses
Access the DSU’s identity (ID) subbranch for each
tributary DSU to ensure that the DSUs are properly
addressed. Refer to Chapter 5 for an example using the
DCP, if needed.
Procedure
1. Select Remot (Remote branch).
2. Enter the tributary’s network address.
3. Select Stat (Status branch).
4. Press the
key until ID appears.
5. Select ID.
6. Press the
key until Network Addr appears.
7. Verify that the correct address has been entered.
Repeat this procedure for each tributary DSU in the
network.
Verifying the Network
Perform a Digital Test on the DDS circuit to ensure
that the network is functioning.
Procedure
1. Select Test (F3).
2. Select DSU (F1).
3. Press the
key until DT appears.
4. Select DT.
5. Select Start (F1).
6. Select a port.
7. Enter the address of the remote DSU.
8. Select the amount of time you want the test to run
in hours: minutes: seconds (hh:mm:ss).
Press the
or key to move the blinking
cursor to the digit to be changed.
Press the F1 ( ) key to increment the digit
(1 through 9).
Press the F2 () key to decrement the digit.
9. Select Enter (F3). Please wait appears as the DSU
starts the test.
10. When Command Complete appears, press the
key.
11. Select Displ (F1) to display the results of the test.
Table 4-6 in Chapter 4 shows the information
