    Test scripts

    Define your own test scenario. The test scripts enable you to set up different types of test and include them in a sequence. This can then be selected from a list and run by pressing the test start button. The following tests can be combined in a test script.
     

    Traces

    The tracer runs in the background whenever Aurora Tango is being used. This enables you to save and later view traces of any calls or tests.  The traces generated by Aurora  Tango can be transferred to a PC or printed on a portable printer in different formats for further analysis. They are also compatible with the PC decode software, Aurora Expert.
    > Features and Benefits

    Plug and test

    Aurora Tango test both ISDN network and Terminal Equipment, and emulates a full range of ISDN calls. Only 3 steps are necessary to run the pre-configured tests:
    • Connect Aurora Tango, to the line,
    • Press the Test Start button,
    • View the result.
    The pass/fail and detailed results can be viewed directly on the screen of the PDA.
    In one-button mode a “Test Complete ” indication is given by LED.
    In both cases a detailed report can be printed.
     

    Auto-configuration

    This  feature means that the user does not have to configure the instrument to match the line. On the other hand it can execute a number of test sequences in order to verify any ISDN installation.
