Port Diagnostics
Port Diagnostics allows you to test individual ports or trace Patch Cable connections
between panels/enclosures by using the pen probe to touch a sensor pad or the metal
contact on the back of a Patch cable/Fiber Jumper.
Note that Port Diagnostics works differently for interconnect mode. The instructions
here pertain to cross-connect mode. Instructions for interconnect mode are provide in
the Interconnect Mode section later in this manual.
To enter the Port Diagnostics mode, scroll to
Port Diagnostics
and press
Enter
. The
following screen will appear:
Use the pen probe to touch a smart panel/enclosure port pad for diagnostics. Touch
the probe pen to a sensor pad/point and press the button on the pen. The LED on the
back of the probe pen will flash green after a few seconds and the port information will
display. If a Patch Cable is connected between panels/enclosures, the screen will look
like this:
The second line has the port icon, port number, panel icon and the panel name pulled
from the MapIT software database. If the panel is not connected to the MapIT EEC
software or there is no panel name available, the panel serial number will be displayed.
The fourth line has information for the second port/panel.
