2.8.3   Diagnostic Testing

The 

ioLink

 system has several diagnostic tests and alarm indicators to pinpoint performance

problems.  By performing a few simple tests and noting the alarms, the user can isolate the source of

the problem for diagnosis and correction or repair.  Determining whether the communication error is in

the 

ioWave

 equipment or Customer Premise Equipment (CPE) simplifies troubleshooting and

reduces unnecessary equipment returns.
