Using Smart Test and SignalWizard
Monitoring Path Trace Messages
When running SignalWizard any routing errors in the network
will be shown in the Overview window.
During the installation and commissioning of new services, or
troubleshooting, the ability to generate and monitor path trace
messages is essential. This allows you to confirm correct rout-
ing paths through network equipment with software controlled
routing capability. You can also use path trace messages for
checking routing performance of network elements during pro-
tection switching to confirm the correct signals have been pro-
tected in fault conditions.
You can view all the J1 path trace messages for the received
signal at the same time. Alternatively, you can view all the J2
path trace messages associated with VT/TU channels in a
selected STS/AU.
To view path trace messages:
• Use the arrow keys to select the STS/AU channel of inter-
est. View the J1 path trace message at the bottom of the
display.
To list/search all J1 Path trace messages in the receive sig-
nal:
• Press <Menu>, choose Trace Messages then press
<Select>. Select List Current Levels, a trace message win-
dow will be displayed.
• Press <Menu>, choose Trace Messages then press
<Select>. Select Search Current Level. Enter the trace
message you are searching for in the dialog box, then select
OK.
