T-Watch Pro is the ADTRAN management software program that allows the user to control the TSU LT from a PC. It provides complete control over the configuration of the TSU LT using a graphic interface. The T-Watch Pro program displays the same status and performance data as the front panel LCD. This data is displayed as tables and graphs.
TSU LT User Manual Chapter 1. Introduction Self-test The self-test checks the integrity of the internal operation of the electronic components by performing memory tests and by sending and verifying data test patterns through all internal interfaces. Although actual user data cannot be passed during these tests, the self-test can run with the network and DTE interfaces in place and without disturbing any external interface.
Figure 1-6. DTE Interface Loopback Pattern Generation The TSU LT offers four available test patterns: 511, 1:8, All Ones, and All Zeros. The 511 pattern is generated and checked by the Nx56K/64K serial interface. It only appears in the DS0s assigned to the Nx56K/64K port. When used in conjunction with the payload loopback at the far end, an end-to-end integrity check can be made on the DTE ports.
TSU LT User Manual Chapter 1. Introduction Bridge/Router Application A bridge or router can be interfaced to the network by using the V.35/V.11 DTE interface. The bandwidth used is programmable at Nx56 or Nx64 data rates for T1 or FT1 service. The bandwidth can be selected as contiguous or alternate.
Power to the TSU LT must be from a grounded 220-230 VAC, 60 Hz power source. Power Up Testing and Initialization When shipped from the factory, the TSU LT is set to factory default conditions. At the first application of power, the unit automatically executes self-tests followed by an initialization sequence which sets up the unit.

Operation Chapter 3 OPERATION The TSU LT can be configured and controlled from either the local front panel or from a PC using the T-Watch Management Software Program. General Menu Operation The TSU LT uses a multilevel menu structure containing both menu items and data fields. All menu operations and data are displayed in the LCD window.
Used to set all of the parameters associated with the network interface. UNIT Used to control TSU LT control port baud rate and to set up the dial out function. PORT Used to configure the parameters associated with the DTE port.
SOFTWARE REV Displays the version number of the current software revision level. This information is required when requesting assistance from ADTRAN Customer Service or when updates are needed. REINIT UNIT Used to reinitialize the unit. This menu item is not used to restore the factory default settings for all parameters.
Chapter 3. Operation TSU LT User Manual Arrows Menus that display small Up or Down arrows in the lower right corner indicate there are more menu items than are viewable on a two-line LCD. The additional menu items are accessed with the Up or Down arrows.

TSU LT User Manual Chapter 4. Status Menu The Up and Down arrows are used to access the complete display of the errors/alarms that are currently active. Alarms and Errors The following are alarms and errors which can be seen.
This menu is used to access the configuration of parameters associated with the network interface in the TSU LT. There are eight submenu items that include setting the format, the line build-out (LBO), and the clock source. See Figure 5-2 on page 44.
Chapter 5. Configuration Menu TSU LT User Manual Figure 5-2. Network Submenu The fields and parameters available are: FORMAT Sets the frame format for the NI. Choices: D4, ESF, AUTO D4 is equivalent to Superframe Format (SF). CODE Sets the line code for the NI.
Figure 5-3. Network Timed Clock Source DTE Timing The DTE is the source of timing. The TSU LT uses the incoming DTE clock to determine the transmission timing. This is typically used in applications such as limited distance line drivers, where it is necessary to have the DTE as the primary clock source.
Figure 5-4. DTE Clock Source Internal Timing The TSU LT is the source of timing. The TSU LT is configured to use its own internal oscillator as the source of timing. Applications include private line driver circuits where one end is set to network and the other to internal.
POSITION OF TSU LT Determines if this TSU LT is at the head of a chain of units (directly connected to the modem or PC). The head of the chain is referred to as the master unit. Units down the chain are referred to as slaves or a slave unit.

, the first DS0 occupied operates in 56K mode and the DTE clock rate is reduced by 8 kbps. The TSU LT uses this 8 kbps channel to send and receive configuration data across a T1 span. As shown in Figure 5-7, this allows the PC connected to the chain-in port on TSU LT A to monitor/configure both TSU LT A and B.
