Electrodata Introduces the LIGHT-MATE I, the LIGHT-MATE
II and the EZ-REMOTE!!
We have introduced the LIGHT-MATE
I and LIGHT-MATE II as optical solutions
for testing SONET transmission. When mated to the EZ-TESTER ST, the LIGHT-MATE
I tests OC-3/3c and OC-12/12c while the LIGHT-MATE II adds OC-48/48c testing
capabilities. The EZ-REMOTE is the rack mounted
remote testing solution for DS1, DS3, STS-1 and SONET OC3/OC12 transmission.
ATM is available as an option on all of these units which allows single-ended
and full-duplex testing across the network.
New Transmission Test Sets
We have six new transmission test sets designed
to help you tailor your investment to your unique testing needs. Four new
instruments are of the EZ-TESTER® Series.
The EZ-TESTER QJ, EZ-TESTER HD, and EZ-TESTER ST, offer comprehensive testing
capabilities for different combinations of T1, DS3, and STS-1 SONET testing
requirements. The fourth unit, the new EZ-TESTER DS, combines T1 testing
with a DDS 4-wire local loop testing. The DS, HD, and QJ models are available
with dual T1 configurations for full drop / insert applications and for
line monitoring with two receivers simultaneously.
Our new T1-LITETM
is a light-weight transmission tester with full T1 transmit and receive
capabilities that autoconfigures to the line code, framing format, and
test pattern. It loops up and loops down the far end, and transmits all
the standard T1 test patterns for thorough testing of the span.
The E1-LITETM
is our very first 2048 Kbp/s transmission tester! It offers full E1 transmit
and receive test features like the T1-LITE. Both instruments include a
2-line by 16-character display, headset jacks for voice frequency channel
testing, and 13 front panel LEDs for instant display of normal and abnormal
signal conditions.
Visit our PRODUCTS page and select the instrument
of your choice for a complete description of features and capabilities
for each new test set.
On-Line Accessories Catalog
To assist you in selecting among the many accessories
we offer for use with our test equipment products, we have introduced an
on-line catalog complete with images and brief descriptions of each item.
Credit card purchases are accepted using Visa, Mastercard, and American
Express.
Frame Relay Testing
Option 14, for EZ-TESTER II,
QJ, HD, or ST, configured with DS1, confirms functionality and connectivity
of PVC frame relay links through polling, frame capture, and IP PING operations.
EZ-TESTER IIs
with serial number 1520 or lower require a hardware modification for Option
14 and cannot be upgraded using OnCall. Contact the factory at 1-800-441-6336
for instructions for adding Option 14 to a test set.
SS7 Capture / Analysis Option
Option 13 is available for all EZ-TESTER models
configured with DS1, providing analysis and statistics of SS7 SU/SMU messages
and retransmissions. The option provides capture and decoding of MSUs in
plain English, and offer pre- and post-capture filtering. SS7 can be downloaded
via OnCall.
GR-303 Test Access Option
GR-303 test access is now available as Option
12 for all EZ-TESTERs configured with DS1 and can be downloaded via Electrodata's
OnCall feature. Click here for more information on Option
12, GR-303 testing feature.
Improved Test Tone Capability
We've added a full battery of fixed and variable
audio test tones to the EZ-TESTER II
and above configured with DS1 VF testing capability. The test set will
generate variable tones from 50 to 3950 Hz in 1 Hz steps, and fixed tones
of 404 Hz, 1004 Hz, 1804 Hz, and 2804 Hz to support standard VF testing,
including channel loss, frequency response, and gain-slope testing. A fixed
2713 Hz tone is included for Bell 829 loopback activation. The upgrade
is available to all EZ-TESTER owners at no charge and can be downloaded
via the test set's OnCall feature.

Updating your test set's firmware, and downloading
many test options, can be done right at your own work site. Click on OnCall
to learn how simple it is.
Latest Downloadable Firmware Revisions
All remote control Windows software and test set
firmware revisions are now listed in one place. Click
here or use the "Software Updates" button to view the latest software
revisions. Download the Windows software directly from the page, or check
for the latest test set operating firmware and then download using the
test set's OnCall feature.
T1 Test Pattern Descriptions and Functions
"Which T1 test pattern should I use?" and "What
does it mean when the circuit fails a bit-error-rate-test (BERT) on one
pattern but passes another?" Visit our T1 Test Patterns
page for a brief discussion of the the most commonly used test patterns
and the use of each pattern.
Option 12, GR-303 Testing
with all DS1 Optioned EZ-TESTERs
Option 12, GR-303 Test Access, provides test functionality
for Digital Loop Carrier (DLC) systems using the GR-303 standard (also
referred to as TR-303). GR-303 is Bellcore's GR-303-CORE, "IDLC Generic
Requirements, Objectives, and Interface", document. This document specifies
the Integrated Digital Loop Carrier (IDLC) interface requirements between
the Remote Digital Terminal (RDT) and the Integrated Digital Terminal (IDT)
or Central Office (CO) Local Digital Switch(LDS).
The option provides all EZ-TESTERs configured
with DS1 the capabilities of monitoring the Timeslot Management Channel(TMC)/Common
Signaling Channel (CSC), and the Embedded Operations Channel (EOC). The
TMC/CSC is decoded to level 2 or level 3 and filters are available for
Call Reference Value (CRV) and abnormal cause codes. When hybrid signaling
is used, the option also provides decode of the ABCD bits. The EOC is decoded
to level 2. Any captured information can be printed or transferred to a
computer for later analysis or reference.
Two additional capabilities are present based
on other options in the EZ-TESTERs. If Option 03, ESF/SLC 96 Monitor and
Control, is present, the test set can display Performance Report Messages
(PRM). If Option 10, Terminal Emulation, is present, the test set provides
"dumb" terminal access to the craft interface as specified in GR-303.
