The front panel provides complete and easy control of all items that can be configured through 
menu-guided options. The front panel LCD displays the status of operation and performance reports for the 
unit. Chapter 3 contains information on front panel operation and all the menu options.

T-Watch is the ADTRAN PC control program. It provides complete control over the configuration of the 
T1 ESF CSU ACE through a graphic interface. The T-Watch program displays the same status and 
performance data as the front panel LCD. This data is displayed in the form of tables and graphs.

The T-Watch program has the following capabilities:

•

Interface with modem permits dialing into a remote T1 ESF CSU ACE location to configure the unit or 
read the unit’s status or performance.

•

Performance data read from the units can be exported in a file which is compatible with common 
spreadsheet programs.

The ADTRAN T1 ESF CSU ACE supports the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) through 
the ADTRAN Advisor SNMP Proxy Agent (1950007L1) to a network management system such as 
OpenView® or SunNet Manager™. The proxy agent runs on a PC and can interface to the T1 ESF CSU 
ACE directly or through a modem, in the same manner as the T-Watch PC programs.

The ADTRAN T1 ESF CSU ACE recognizes an escape sequence that puts the unit into the ASCII terminal 
mode. After receiving the sequence, the T1 ESF CSU ACE sends front panel information to the terminal. 
This interface acts exactly like the front panel, but the advantage is that it can be accessed remotely 
(through a modem). The escape sequence is:

<CONTROL-A> <CONTROL-P> <CONTROL-T>

or

<CONTROL-P> <CONTROL-T> <CONTROL-T>
