Offline Test (ot)

(Disruptive)

Use the ot command to test the primary and secondary data channel circuits on a DATAPHONE 2700 Series Data Service Unit (DSU). The DSU internally transmits a message to itself 100 times on the primary and secondary channels. If one or more message errors are detected in the

transmission, the DSU fails the test.

This test is similar to the Device Test (det); however, the Offline Test (ot) command tests the channel service unit (CSU) and the det command does not. If a DSU passes a Device Test (det), but fails the ot, the problem is in the CSU.

For most commands, NMS enables you to specify the destination for the command's results and schedule its execution. If the last page of the input form cannot accommodate the Destination for results and Schedule execution fields, an additional page is provided. For a complete description of these fields, refer to Chapter 1, Introduction.
