The activity and state of the modem's DTE signal

appear on the LCD's bottom line. Press the Record key to scroll other signals into view.

The LCD's bottom line displays a pair of symbols for each interface lead. The first symbol indicates the signal's activity during the sampling interval. (An * (asterisk) indicates at least one transition while a blank space indicates no transitions since the last update.)

The second symbol indicates the state of the interface lead at the sampling time. (A Manual background block) indicates a Space or ON condition while an underscore (_) indicates a Mark or Off condition.)

To exit this function and remain in the Status branch,

press the Manual background key. To exit and return to the Top-Level

menu, press the Manual background key.

Record

Record is a troubleshooting tool used by the end user in conjunction with support personnel. This function allows the end user to retrieve and report any sequence faults to support personnel. A sequence fault is an irregular or unexpected event.

There are two selections under Record: Display and

Clear. Display allows up to eight sequence fault messages that have been recorded by the modem to be displayed on the LCD. If no sequence faults have occurred, then Modem O.K. appears.

Clear is used to remove all sequence fault messages from nonvolatile memory and the LCD.
