Compatibility
Peripheral equipment
Check the operation of the peripheral equipment connected with cables (see
Configuration 1 below).
Interfaces
Check the specifications compatibility (type, data rate) between the TereScope and
the peripheral equipment interfaces.
Test equipment
Chose an appropriate Bit Error Rate (BER) tester for checking the physical link
quality. A portable one is preferable since it is more convenient for use in the field.
A ping test or a file transfer between two workstations - connected to the
networking equipment - is useful and easy to implement for testing the
performance of the whole configuration.
Setup
DIP Switch
Set DIP switch 1 to OFF (attenuated transmitter) in order to enable short range
operation with minimal extra attenuation. Set DIP switch 4 to appropriate
protocol – ON for Gigabit Ethernet, OFF for FiberChannel.
