PLANET EPL-1000 - Manual (Page 28)

3.2 Software Introduction
Preface
The Planet GEPON solution, including the OLT EPL-1000 and ONU EPN-102/104, all
designed by Teknovus GEPON technology. It is based on the TK37XX family. The
EPL-1000 is TK3721 OLT chipset and EPN-102/104 is TK-3715 ONU chipset. For
inconvenience, following information will use TK37XX to introduce the software
configuration.
This document is intended for engineers operating the TK37XX family of integrated EPON
solutions. The document explains how to use the TK37XX PC HOST GUI Utility, for the
purpose of evaluating the functionality and usability of TK37XX Host Interface Protocol.
This manual assumes that the reader has a technical background and a base level of
understanding regarding the basic operation of PON equipment, but does not assume any
prior experience using the TK37XX or any other product. The GUI Utility is a demonstration
package, intended for evaluation purposes only.
Organization of the GUI
The screen real estate used by the GUI is divided — MDI style — into three sash windows.
The upper left panel displays the entities that may be managed by the TK37XX Host
Interface, including the OLT, ONUs and Logical Links. This sash window shall be referred to
as the Element Status Window. Left clicking on an entity with the mouse will open a tabbed
panel in the upper right sash window that may be used to manage the entity. This sash
window shall be referred to as the Entity Management Window. The bottommost sash
window is used for the purpose of logging the host interface message that are sent and
received by the GUI, and shall be referred to as the Message Log. The Message Log
displays the commands that are sent and received from the GUI as well as the raw bytes
sent and received by the physical layer interface.
