1 Introduction
The ARGUS 3u installation tester makes installation work
and trouble shooting on BRI and POTS accesses both safe
and uncomplicated. Additionally, the ARGUS 3u also
supports U-interface accesses. With its rechargeable
batteries and internal charger, the ARGUS 3u is
exceptionally well suited for use in the field. The intuitive
menu operation combines convenient cursor keys and
softkeys with a four-line backlit display.
Besides automatic access tests, service checks and
supplementary services tests, the ARGUS 3u also supports
among others physical measurements with evaluation,
cabling tests, and bit error rate measurements
The ARGUS can be enhanced with the WINplus software
package, which enables linking the ARGUS to a PC.
WINplus can be used to load changes to the protocols or
new functions into the ARGUS at any time (software
updates free of charge at www.argus.info).
If you use the ARGUS on a BRI in an ISDN system whose
specifications deviate from the (DIN ETS 300 102) standard
(e.g. some networked PBXs), you must take these
manufacturer-specific modifications into account. In such
cases, please contact the distributor of your ISDN PBX for
assistance.
The ARGUS Functions - Overview:
Protocol Recognition and B-Channel Test for ISDN
Accesses
After you select the operation mode, the ARGUS will
automatically determine the protocol used by the access
under test and will then test the availability of the B-
channels.
Telephone connections
Can a telephone call be placed from this access to every
other number and/or can this access receive a call?
