3.7.2 Ring Map Configuration Screen Commands
The following list describes each of the Ring Map Configuration screen
commands:
Address Mode [ ]
The Address Mode command allows the user to switch between canonical
and MAC format addresses. To toggle between the two address modes,
press the SPACE bar.
SCROLL DOWN
n
The Scroll Down n command rotates the ring display, so that the station
addresses shift around the ring in a clockwise direction. The n controls the
number of shifts downstream of the HSIM-F6.
SCROLL UP
n
The Scroll Up n command rotates the ring display, so that the station
addresses shift around the ring in a counterclockwise direction. The n
controls the number of shifts upstream of the HSIM-F6.
3.7.2.1 Adjusting the Scroll Number (
n)
When using the SCROLL DOWN n or SCROLL UP n commands, the n
allows the user to control the number of shifts made with each command
execution.
To set the number (n) of scrolls, perform the following steps:
1. Using the ARROW keys, highlight the SCROLL DOWN n or
SCROLL UP n command.
2. Press the SHIFT and + keys (to increment) or the SHIFT and - keys (to
decrement) until the number of shifts desired displays.
3. Press ENTER. The ring map scrolls n number of shifts.
NOTE
When the ring map contains only one station, the
SCROLL UP
n and SCROLL DOWN n commands do not
appear.
NOTE
The scroll number remains the same until it is changed
manually, or the Local Management session is terminated.
