the User Interface
You can access the user interface from either the front
panel or the COM port. The E1 DSU/CSU allows only
one user interface to be active at a time. The front panel is
the default user interface at power-up or after a reset. It is
also the default during a software download or when a
failure occurs at either the local or remote PC interface.
You can switch an inactive user interface to active if,
•
The current active user interface has had no activity
(no key was pressed) for at least five minutes,
and/or
•
The active user interface has been released with the
Release command.

you are using the PC interface, use the mouse to click on
the desired Function key.
The top-level menu screen appears on the active user
interface, regardless of what screen was displayed at the
