Diagnostic Options

IDU LED allows setting the LEDs under the TDM ports to indicate the TDM port status or
represent the RSSI level read from the ODU.
Loopback Mode is used for troubleshooting and will enable the traffic to be looped back
either at the IDU IF section just before the ODU connector, or at the digital level inside
the modem. This feature is very useful for fault isolation during setup.
Syslog level is used to set the detail of the entries made to the system log. The log level
can be adjusted via the CLI or web. Syslog levels are as follows:
Set is used to identify any changes made by the user, such as changing the
-
frequency, turning opmode off, etc.
- Event is used to log any events that are triggered by the system, such as an ACM
shift down or up or a trap generated upon high traffic utilization.
Stat is use to identified link statistics on a periodic basis. It is recommended that
-
this level only be used for debugging since the entire syslog memory (about 1500
entries) will be used up quickly and older events may be overwritten.
System Reboot in: is used reboot the IDU and ODU after a set amount of time for
troubleshooting purposes. This is useful for troubleshooting where changes to the
remote end may cause the link to drop. If this command is executed, the system will
automatically reboot itself and load the stored settings, restoring the system to a known
configuration. One common use of this feature is to turn the far end transmitter off to
listen on the local end for interference. By using this command the far end will
automatically reload and start transmitting again after the specified time.
Diagnostic Export generates a diagnostic.bin file. To download this file, the TFTP
function of the IDU must be enabled. Then from the PC's command prompt, execute the
following command: tftp - i [IP address of the IDU] get diagnostic_Gigaplus.bin The file
will have to be submitted to Trango Product Support for processing.
Config Reset will reset the all saved system configuration settings EXCEPT IP addresses
and license keys to the factory defaults. Frequency, power, speed, etc. will all be reset
and need to be re-entered. Reboot is required after executing the config reset
command.
Config Export will export the current configuration to the file export_config.txt. This is
useful for saving a known working configuration and quickly bringing another IDU/ODU
up with the same configuration using the Config Import command.
Config Import allows the previously exported config file to be saved into the IDU non
volatile memory. The file must first be uploaded to the IDU. Reboot is required.
