Using SmartMode for Alarm/Error Monitoring
Note: The default test preferences will be used for alarm/error monitoring. Refer
to Default Test Preferences on page 530 for the list of test preferences.
To monitor alarms/errors using SmartMode:
1. Select the OTN/SONET/SDH signal interface rate corresponding to the
signal connected to the module.
2. Press either the Not Scanned. Click here or on the "Smart Scan"
button to scan or the Smart Scan button.
The structure of the signal is displayed when the scan succeeds;
otherwise, a LOS is declared and a red border appears around the
signal button. If the scan failed, make sure the selected interface rate
corresponds to the signal connected to the module.
