Checking the Status of the

DSU/CSU

You can request various types of status information from the 316x DSU/CSU's front panel. Access this information from the Status branch of the front panel menu tree (see Figure 3-33).

Differences Using the Async Terminal: Figure 3-34 shows the menu hierarchy for the Status branch when using the async terminal.

Figure 3-34. Async Terminal Status Branch

Device Health and Status

Use the Device Health and Status branch to view

current health and status information of the DSU/CSU. When you access this branch, one or more status messages display in priority order (highest to lowest) on Line 2 of the LCD. On the front panel, use the scroll keys to view any additional messages. Table 3-9 lists these messages in priority order.

The DSU/CSU is polled for current status every ten seconds. If the status has changed from the last poll, the Health and Status screen is updated and the highest priority message is redisplayed. The message DSU/CSU Operational appears when there are no other messages.

Differences Using the Async Terminal: The menu structure for the Status branch changes slightly from the front panel to allow you to display health and status information from one screen. To do this, select Health, Test Status, and Self Test Results from the main/status menu. Figure 2-10 in Chapter 2 shows an example of this results screen.
