DSU Input and Output Signaling

Other Reporting Differences

Signal

Description (continued)

 

 

CL

CSU Loopback

 

When this signal is “L”, the DSU hardware is looping the remote

 

connection's receive to transmit.

 

 

IDL

Idle

 

An “H” on this signal tells the DSU hardware to send idle bipolar

 

violations to the remote system.

 

 

CLK

Clock Mode

 

The signal “H” denotes the use of the network clock. The DSU option

 

provides the clock when this signal is “L”.

 

 

You can view these signals using the control terminal Monitor menu item on the Main menu.

Other differences in control terminal output are:

Detailed Port Statistics— show DSU input and output signaling as well as note the installed DSU DIM

Detailed Node Statistics— show DSU DIM position
