5. USING THE INSTRUMENT FOR
MONITORING
5.1. About this Chapter
This chapter gives detailed information on all parameters used to configure the
instrument for monitoring the traffic of an ISDN access and signalling on a POTS
access, according to the device used. Two monitoring modes are available:
►
The instrument is capable of monitoring the traffic while executing a test.
Throughout this manual this mode is referred to as “background mode”.
►
The instrument can be set-up in a way that it monitors all traffic on the
selected interface. Throughout this manual this mode is referred to as “ high
impedance mode”.
The parameters that can be set up in both modes are the same: filters and control of
buffer. In both cases the resulting trace can be stored and analyzed on the screen.
The monitor on POTS does not have the same filters as
ISDN.
Data captured by the device may be stored for further analysis or downloaded into a
persona computer through the software Aethra
®
“PC108 for Windows
TM
”.
Monitoring navigation is illustrated in Fig. 5-1.
