4.4.5 Interpreting System Alarms

The Alarm Output Configuration screen (Figure 29) allows the user to assign each alarm a Major,
Minor, or Off status. The System Alarms screen (Figure 30) provides alarm status. Alarms
indicate the condition of the local or remote, primary or secondary modems, cable configuration,
link condition, and other alerts such as improperly inserted ELIMs and OLIMs. This screen is
most useful when a problem in the link or data flow is detected.

Note: Many of the alarms on this screen correlate to an LED alarm on the modem face.

To access the System Alarms screen, type "4" from the Main Modem screen. This screen contains
13 alarm notifications that report important link and modem condition information. When errors
are noted, the System Alarm Screen is a major diagnostic tool. Table 5 describes each alarms
significance and notification message.
