Interfaces

Check the specifications compatibility (type, data rate) between the TereScope and the peripheral equipment interfaces.

Testing equipment

Chose an appropriate BER (Bit Error Rate) tester for checking the physical link quality. A portable one is preferred for convenient use in the field.

A ping test or a file transfer between two workstations - connected to the networking equipment - is useful and easy to implement for testing the performance of the whole configuration.

Setup

Dip-switch

Set all the DIP switch toggles (other than 8 and 10 which are for SNMP management and Fusion) to the OFF position for normal operation.

4-TS5000/4U1
