Overview

The E1 DSU/CSU offers functionality through Front Panel Emulation software that is similar to that provided by the E1 DSU/CSU front panel. The E1 DSU/CSU can either be locally or remotely attached to a 386 or higher PC that has at least 4 MB of RAM. (An external modem is required for remote attachment.) A copy of the E1 DSU/CSU front panel appears on the PC. The functionality of the front panel is available by clicking on the Function keys with the mouse rather than by pressing keys from the actual front panel.
