If you want to bypass the NaturalAccess layer

use

 

the

 cpcon

_

 utility to monitor the TX 

operating system. 

cplot 

Loads communications processor tasks to TX boards. 

cpmodel 

Displays the board type for each installed TX board. 

pcigetcfg 

Obtains bus and slot information during software installation (UNIX only). 

txalarm 

Uses NaturalAccess to display and optionally log alarm messages generated by NaturalAccess 
Signaling Software tasks running on all TX boards. 

If you want to bypass the NaturalAccess layer, use the 

txalarm

_

 utility to display and 

optionally log alarm messages. 

txccode 

Displays a text description of a completion code (error code) reported by a TX board. 

txconfig
