Figure 3-10. The TR Management Station Statistics Window

This window also lists both soft and hard error conditions detected by the MicroMMAC-T’s management station, as explained in the following sections.

The Total Errors field indicates the sum of both soft and hard errors that the management station has detected.

By using the radio buttons located at the bottom of the TR Management Station Statistics window, you can choose whether to view the statistics gathered since the MicroMMAC-T was last started up (Total), counted during the last polling interval (Delta), or accumulated from zero at a user-defined point (Cumulative). See Setting Total, Delta, or Cumulative Counts , page 3-1, for details.

Set the time interval to update information (from 1 second to 23 hours, 59 minutes, 59 seconds) by using the clock symbol at the bottom of the window. See Setting the Statistics Poll Interval , page 3-3, for details.

Soft Errors Fields

Line Errors

The count of line errors that the management station has detected on the ring. This error indicates a non-data bit between the starting and ending delimiters of data, or a frame check sequence error.

Burst Errors

The count of burst errors that the management station has detected on the ring. This error indicates a bit information-encoding error when there are no transitions between 0 and 1 over five half-bit times.
