Running Network Diagnostics on the 7847i/7847i-E using AlarmNet

The network diagnostic process tests the integrity of the links between the unit and the
various connection points of AlarmNet Control that are known as "Redirects" (Redirs or
RDR).
To initiate the network diagnostics, press the [F] key on the 7720P.
NOTE: The test is performed ONLY if a physical link is detected. If no physical link is detected,
the test is aborted and the following is displayed:
If a physical link is detected, the diagnostics are performed.

Running Network Diagnostics on the 7847i-E
using a Private LAN
The first step of the test traces the connection to Redir 1
at AlarmNet Control.
A successful trace to Redir 1 is indicated here. See
below for possible errors that may occur at this stage of
testing.
After a successful trace to Redir 1, a test of the service at
Redir 1 is performed. That is, the first test determines if
a message can reach AlarmNet Control; this test
determines if the connection point (Redir) at AlarmNet
Control knows what to do with the message once it
receives it.
The service at AlarmNet Control on Redir 1 is
functioning. See below for possible errors that may
occur at this stage of testing.
The first step of the test traces the connection to Redir 2
at AlarmNet Control.
A successful trace to Redir 2 is indicated here. See
below for possible errors that may occur at this stage of
testing.
After a successful trace to Redir 2, a test of the service at
Redir 2 is performed. That is, the first test determines if
a message can reach AlarmNet Control; this test
determines if the connection point (Redir) at AlarmNet
Control knows what to do with the message once it
receives it.
