DSP-4000 Series
Users Manual
To extend battery life, use the ac adapter/charger when monitoring
network traffic for extended periods. While monitoring network
traffic, the test tool's automatic power-down function is disabled.
The Monitor jack does not support the Talk mode.
1. Attach a traffic link interface adapter (such as the DSP-LIA013) to the test
tool.
2. Turn the rotary switch to MONITOR.
3. Use D to highlight 10/100BASE-TX Traffic.
4. Remove any cable connected to the test tool's unused test connector.
5. Use a patch cable of the correct impedance to connect the test tool to the
network as shown in Figure 4-5. Connect to the jack indicated by the arrow at
the top of the display.
6. Press T to start the traffic test.
7. Use the #10T Only or #100TX Only softkey to select traffic
monitoring at 10 Mb/s or 100 Mb/s.
If you don't know which speed to use, and the test tool is not already trying to
link using Auto-Negotiation, press # until the display reads
Auto-Negotiation. This lets the test tool select the proper speed to
match the hub.
As the traffic test runs, the results shown on the test tool's display are updated
every second. Table 4-5 describes the items on the screen.
