How to set Route B

To switch the route between port B and another numbered port:
1 Use the Cursor key to highlight [Route B <->], then press Enter.
2 Use the Cursor key to enter the number of the port required.
If the Switch module incorporates independent routing, you cannot
select a numbered port assigned to port A.
3 Press [OK].
If the switch module has dependent routing, [Route A <->] is
updated automatically.
The [Edit] softkey is functionally equivalent to the Enter hardkey.
The [Menu] softkey allows you to assign a route for port A and port B
in turn.

How to Toggle the Switch path

You can use [Toggle] softkey, or the Toggle button located on the
Optical Switch module front panel, to select each of the available
routes for a channel in turn.
