1 Introduction
Service Tests
Does the tested access support connections with the most
important services, such as, ISDN telephone service, Group
4 - Facsimile or datatransmission at 64 kbit/s etc.?
Additionally, 3 user-specific services can be saved in the
ARGUS and tested on the access under test.
Bit error tests (BERT)
Performs a BERT in an extended call to itself via a loopbox
or in end-to-end operation. The ARGUS will, if needed,
handle the loopbox function itself.
Supplementary Services
The ARGUS automatically tests the supplementary services
made available by the exchange.
Leased Line Tests – tests permanent circuits with BERT
and speech
POTS functionality (does not apply for the 3u basic)
Does the POTs access support call number transfer?
Monitoring a POTS access (passive listening-in)
(does not apply for the 3u basic)
Passive trace on a BRI access
Line Test (optional)
Checks the terminating resistors for the cabling of a four-
wire bus.
Detects cabling problems (e.g. broken wires, short-circuits
or crossed wires).
CF Interrogation
The ARGUS will check, whether a call diversion has been
setup on the access under test. The ARGUS can setup or
clear down call diversions in the exchange.
MSN interrogation (only on a BRI access)
On a P-MP access using the DSS1 protocol, the ARGUS
will determine the MSNs of the access under test.
