T-WATCH PRO OVERVIEW

T-Watch Pro is a PC-based management software package for the TSU/TDU/HSU series of T1/FT1 DSU/CSUs. T-Watch Pro allows the user to configure multiple TSU/HSU devices from a single central control point, including the T1 network in­terface and all module data terminal equipment (DTE) interface parameters. Through comprehensive network monitor functions, T-Watch Pro automatically col­lects alarm conditions and/or unit status information from any of the remotely lo­cated TSUs. While performance data may be obtained manually from each TSU, automatic performance monitoring
