The LCD displays status messages as requested via the
Device Health and Status branch of the front panel menu
(see the
Device Health and Status section in Chapter 4,
Maintenance). In addition, the highest level status
message appears on the front panel automatically if no
front panel action has occurred at the DSU/CSU for the
past five minutes.
The LCD also lists commands, configuration options,
and test results. In most cases, the top line shows the
command or option name and default value, while the
second line displays options and responses. When a
response is required, select from the options displayed
directly above the Function keys (F1, F2, F3); make your
choice by pressing the corresponding Function key.
