Chapter 2 Installation and Operation User's Manual

2-8 Using the Graphical User Interface Vmux-210 Ver. 1.0

Selecting the Device or a Port

By selecting an object, you can manipulate or manage the selected system or

port. When selected, a light blue frame is displayed around the selected window

or object. Only one object can be selected at a time.

There are two Vmux-210 user interface object levels:

• System (whole device) – contains all of the parameters and functions that are

common to the whole device.

• Port – contains all of the parameters and functions of the selected port.

 To select the entire device (system):

• In the Element Manager window, click any empty area of the device (where

there is no port).

 To select a port:

• In the Element Manager window, click the frame surrounding the desired

port.

•

When a Vmux device contains more than 4 analog ports (for example: 8, 12,

15, 24, or 30 ports), all these ports reside on a single connector. Each port

within this specific connector is marked with its relative number (for example:

the 30FXS connector has 30 numbers labeled 1 through 30). Select a specific

port number by clicking the number of the desired port.

•

The Control port is not selectable.

Status Indicators

At the top of the window, the title bar displays <element name>:<status>, where

status is either Connected or Disconnected, according to the current connectivity

of the network element to the NMS.

At the bottom of the Element Manager window, there is also a communications

status bar. Sometimes, congestion in the network handling the management

traffic causes significant delays during polling, transfer of large data tables, etc.

When feasible, a progress bar is used to inform the operator of the ongoing

process status. Otherwise, a message is displayed in the status bar at the bottom

of the screen, according to the following table.
