50 CHAPTER 4: TERMINAL OPERATION
Alarms Screen The Alarms screen (Figure 4-4) is used to view the alarm status of the network and
the DTE lines. The fields are described as follows.
NET/DTE Alarms These status lines display the selected element’s network/DTE signal alarm state.
Alarms are determined by the user-selectable thresholds listed in Table 4-2.
(Alarm status) The main body of the Alarms screen shows the count for parameters that can be
used to trigger an alarm.
The Current column shows the total of the preceding 15 one-minute intervals. At
the end of each one-minute interval, the oldest minute of the 15-minute interval is
discarded.
