Health and Status

Health and Status (H/S) displays health and status
information. It automatically scans for DSU and line
conditions that are not within normal limits. There are
three types of Health and Status reports:
Devic (Device Health and Status) displays the
health and status for a selected DSU (and DBM and
TDM or MCMP, if installed). This report is
available from the Local or Remote branch.
Expan (Expanded Health and Status) retrieves
status information relating to automatic dial
attempts and abnormal call terminations. The
Expan selection is only displayed if there is
expanded health and status information available
and is accessible from the Local or Remote branch.
Subn (Subnetwork Health and Status) displays
health and status information for all devices on the
DSU's poll list. This selection is only available
from the Local branch and is valid only if
nondisruptive or mixed diagnostics are in effect and
ADp or DPII protocol selections have been made.
All alarm and status conditions are displayed for the
specified DSU at the time the option is selected. For a
local DSU, the alarm and status conditions are updated
every 2 seconds. For a remote DSU, the alarm and status
conditions are not updated automatically. Note that a
major alarm causes the Alrm status indicator on the
affected DSU to light.
To access the Health and Status reports from the
top-level menu, make the following selections:
Local (F1), or Remot (F2) and Address

Device Health and Status

The Device Health and Status (Devic) selection reports
health and status information for a selected DSU. It
indicates how long the unit has been operating, whether
there is any NMS activity to the unit, and whether there
are additional messages.
