Figure 3-2. LCD
The LCD displays status messages as requested via the Device Health and Status
branch of the front panel menu (see
Device Health and Status
in Chapter 4,
Maintenance
). In addition, the highest level status message appears on the front
panel automatically if no front panel action has occurred at the DSU/CSU for the
past five minutes.
The LCD also lists commands, configuration options, and test results. In most
cases, the top line shows the command or option name and default value, while
the second line displays options and responses. When a response is required,
select from the options displayed directly above the Function keys (F1, F2, F3);
make your choice by pressing the corresponding Function key.
