5. THGm analyzer cards have two interfaces, RJ45 for 10/100 copper wire and a
G-BIC for 1000 Mbps fiber optic. If you selected a THGm, you may need to
change the interface. From the
Module menu, choose Interface. On Board RJ45
selects the bidirectional 10/100BASE-T port. The default is the
G-BIC which
selects the G-BIC send/receive port pair.
6. If you selected a THGm for 10/100BASE-T, you may need to set the Interface
Mode. From the
Module menu, choose Interface Mode.
Auto Negotiate places the resource in auto-detection (10Mbps or 100Mbps)
mode. The interface mode can also force the module to only one speed.
7. If you selected a THGm for Gigabit Ethernet, you may need to disable auto
negotiation if you cannot establish a link. From the
Module menu, choose Fiber
Link and select the No Auto-Negotiation menu item. For more information on
auto negotiation, see “Establishing Links for THGm” on page 20 of this chapter.
Basic Navigation Tips
There are three main windows in Surveyor:
• Surveyor Main Window (Summary View)
• Detail View Window
• Capture View Window
Summary View is used primarily for monitoring, as it shows a single view of many
different resources. It also contains the docking windows for selecting resources
(Resource Browser), setting alarms (Alarm Browser), and viewing system mes-
sages (Message window).
Refer to the Surveyor Quick Start Guide for pictures of the main windows used in
Surveyor.
Detail View is primarily for analyzing data from a single resource. You can look at
the data from Detail View in many different ways.
To display a resource in Detail View, click on (highlight) the resource icon in the
Resource Browser. Press the button to display Detail View for the resource.
Once you have data to analyze, stop the module and press from Detail View to
bring up Capture View. Capture View provides full decode of data in a capture
buffer. Capture View opens as a window within Detail View. Capture View has its
own toolbar so you can view captured data in many different ways.
