FOUR METHODS OF CONTROL
Front Panel
The front panel provides complete and easy control of
all items that can be configured through menu guided
options. The front panel LCD also displays the status
of operation and performance reports for the unit. A
complete discussion of the operation of the front panel
and all the menu options is found in the chapter,
Operations.
ADTRAN PC Program
T-Watch is the ADTRAN PC control program. It
provides complete control over the configuration of
the
TSU 120 using a graphical interface. The T-Watch
program displays the same status and performance
data as the front panel LCD. This data is displayed in
the form of tables and graphs.
The T-Watch program has the following capabilities:
• Interfaces with a modem which permits dialing into
a remote TSU 120 location to configure the unit or
read the status or performance of the unit
• Receives traps from the TSU 120 network alarm
SNMP
The ADTRAN TSU 120 supports the Simple Network
Management Protocol (SNMP) through an ADTRAN
proxy agent. The proxy agent runs on a PC and can
interface to the TSU 120 directly or through a modem,
in the same manner as the T-Watch PC program.
Terminal Mode
The TSU 120 provides the front panel menus to a
VT-100 type terminal. This mode can be used to
configure and monitor the unit. This mode can be
initiated by typing c PTT on the terminal once
it is connected to the Control In port.
