Social Media Marketing Company Provides Online Reputation Management and Monitoring

Atlanta, GA (PRWEB) April 10, 2012

Dr. Matthew Loop and Dr. Len Schwartz co-created Automated Social Networking (ASN) to help small, local businesses maximize the power of the Internet and social media. Using this new service, local companies can now track, measure and manage their online presence and what’s being said (good and bad) about them.

The Internet can be an exceptionally beneficial force for a small business, said Dr. Loop. But, he added, it can also be damaging to business if the wrong information, such as negative reviews, blogs and reports, are published. The fact is anyone can put anything they want to on the web about a company and that information can find its way to page one of Google. Reputation management services from Automated Social Networking can expose and remedy any image problems businesses are having due to adverse material on the Internet.

Reputation management services include integrated search engine tracking and data, allowing companies to know how much their online presence has grown over the course of a month. Helping to ensure visibility online is ASNs ability to get companies prominently displayed in the top three local search directories and in directories that are specific to any enterprise.

Towards understanding why a company stands where it does, ASN sends each business a report focusing on monthly analytics, which means that company will know its SEO score. They’ll know how they’re fairing with search engines and if they need to adjust what they are doing. Plus, ASN has a unique feature that allows businesses to input data and make corrections on all directories with one push of a button.

Reputation management monitoring is ongoing and subscribers get digital updates through email or directly texted to their cellphone when new ratings or reviews are published. This new service also monitors mobile networks, which is especially important as more and more people are using their cellphones to access information on a daily basis. With local targeting of placement in directories and with map placement, businesses will be seen by those in the local area who are most likely to buy the product or service.

One great benefit, observed Dr. Loop, is the business owner gets peace of mind from knowing that their social networking, search engine optimization and reputation management are all being handled for them 24/7. Our approach is twofold. We help create a positive presence while working towards identifying any negatives that may be out there.

ASN, which is the largest turnkey, social media marketing company in the world, was created and founded by Dr. Loop and Dr. Len Schwartz. Both are experienced marketing moguls and entrepreneurs. ASN gives doctors, professionals and small business owners the ability to create a consistent, comprehensive social media and Internet marketing campaign. This helps to greatly increase new, targeted traffic to their websites.

Smartenit Delivers First Android, iOS, Web Browser and Desktop Application for ZigBee and INSTEON Monitoring and Control

San Juan Capistrano, CA (PRWEB) April 13, 2012

Smartenit has introduced a simple, yet highly effective client/server model for handling automation via ZigBee, INSTEON and X10. The Harmony gateways, in their role as servers, take care of all the vagaries of the underlying protocols and the physical connection (wireless or powerline) to the devices in the automation network. The client application on the mobile or desktop platform takes advantage of the work done by the server, and concentrates on the presentation to the user. Communication between the client and the server is done via a lean API that ensures very rapid response and fast interaction. This architecture makes for a pleasant user experience in interacting with the various switches, sensors, appliances and systems in the installation. The streamlined architecture offers the benefits of fast response time, easy inclusion of new devices, transparency of protocol to the user, wider choice of available devices, and future expandability. Seamless control of home automation devices bridging ZigBee, INSTEON and X10 allows a user remote and local control of the widest spectrum of devices without worrying about the various nuances of the diverse technologies. “This App gives our customer a consistent user experience, more options for devices in their network, and the ability to build upon systems they may already have in place”, states Sammy Korotie, sales administrator.

The application focuses on facilitating the main aspects of monitoring and control: addition and maintenance of devices, organization of the automation network according to user preferences, and setup of automation events based on either/both time and device conditions. Simple operations are provided to go from plugging in a device for the first time, to operating it remotely in less than 30 seconds.

Monitor and control from anywhere. The server gateway is the controller attached to a router in the user environment and to the devices in the automation network. The Smartenit App can connect to this server from anywhere, assuming the user has an Internet connection. This opens a myriad of possibilities for monitoring and controlling from the office, from a remote city while on vacation, from a different continent, from anywhere.

Immediate support is provided for a broad line of devices including: whole house energy monitoring, temperature / humidity monitoring, large and small load control from lighting to HVAC and pool pumps, smart plugs that report electricity consumption, and irrigation control. These devices can be set for simple on/off control, timed actions, or more complex control based upon various rules that, when met, trigger automation events. Status of the devices in real-time is displayed by the application taking advantage of data pushed from the server when the status on a device changes.

The application was developed in a way that versions with the same look-and-feel are created simultaneously for Android, iOS (IPhone and iPad) and BlackBerry Tablet. Likewise, versions are available for all major desktop systems including Windows, MacOS and Linux. Finally, for the ultimate in remote connectivity, the same application is available for rapid download to any browser supporting the Adobe Flash player from http://www.harmonygateway.com

Version 1 of the application is available free for use with Smartenit Harmony gateways.

ADR Software Contracted to Provide Automated Workforce Monitoring Service at Construction Sites in Denver, Baltimore and Washington, DC Metro Areas

Reston, VA (PRWEB) April 30, 2012

ADR Software, LLC, manager of the Automated Daily Reporting Network and the Workforce Monitor service, today announced that it has been retained by four large general contractors to initiate workforce monitoring and reporting services at new projects located in Aurora, Colorado; Greeley, Colorado; Washington, DC and Baltimore, Maryland. Clients include Kiewit-Turner, Twin Contracting, HITT Contracting and Turner Construction.

“We are pleased to have been given these important assignments,” said Bruce Labovitz, ADR’s co-founder and President. “These are big and complex projects spread out over large areas that require timely information regarding labor and manpower activities. Workforce Monitor gives the project managers and project administrators access to real-time insight into the composition of their workforce at any given time. Using any web-enabled device like a cell phone, an iPad, a laptop or tablet, project managers can evaluate not just who actually came to work today but also who was supposed to come to work today and who is still at work at any given time during the day. ADR’s real-time workforce information is invaluable in bringing a project to conclusion on-time and on budget.”

“One of our customers is using Workforce Monitor to insure compliance with local economic development and hiring objectives,” Labovitz continued. “With Workforce Monitor on site the client is able to evaluate their compliance on a daily, monthly or project-to-date basis. We believe this real-time analysis provides a competitive advantage in the bidding process and we work closely with our general contractor clients to include ADR in their bid packages.”

ADR also announced that its database of manpower had grown to over 20,000 registered (or tagged) resources. ADR’s Workforce Monitor service is the pedestrian equivalent to the RFID-based automated highway toll collection systems. With ADR’s proprietary Automated Daily Reporting Network, all ADR portals are connected together so a worker who has an ADR tag on their hard hat can be read at any Workforce Monitor enabled project. As such, ADR is able to track workers and sub-contractors across multiple projects for a single general contractor while eliminating the need for redundant data collection and processing. ADR’s Workforce Web Application interacts with leading construction management systems to seamlessly integrate data collected in the field with daily reports, work schedules and accounting requirements.

Workforce Monitor is a service of ADR Software, LLC headquartered in Reston, Virginia. General contractors, owners, project managers and sub-contractors use the service to empower real-time workforce decision making, to provide invaluable project workforce documentation, to improve safety awareness and response readiness and ultimately to manage risk.

Workforce Monitor utilizes RFID tags, embedded in stickers affixed to hard hats and ID badges, to monitor workforce traffic without delays, interruptions or intrusions. Workforce Monitor is currently monitoring over 20,000 workers at construction sites throughout the United States.

ihiji, a Provider of Cloud-Based NMaaS Platforms for Remote Monitoring and Support of IP-Enabled Devices, Joins the Austin Technology Incubator

Austin, Texas (PRWEB) May 09, 2012

The Austin Technology Incubator (ATI), a not-for-profit unit of the IC2 Institute of The University of Texas at Austin, welcomes ihiji to its IT portfolio as a full member company. ihiji, ( hj), is a provider of cloud-based Network Management as a Service (NMaaS) platforms for remote monitoring and support of IP-enabled devices, and has been a part of ATIs Landing Pad Program since 2010.

The Landing Pad Program supports early stage technology companies by leveraging ATIs network and community insight to accelerate that companys acculturation into the Austin business ecosystem. ihiji founders, Stuart Rench, President; Michael Maniscalco, Vice President of Technology; and, David Rench, Vice President of Finance, started a residential design-build home automation company with the idea that home electronic systems could be simplified using better engineering and application of technology. In 2010, after building a successful integration firm in West Palm Beach, Florida, they sold their company to focus solely on ihiji invision, a cutting-edge network management solution, and moved to Austin to be part of ATI.

In 2012, ihiji completed development of a more scalable, flexible and secure architecture and decided to apply the platform into other bigger markets, such as IT markets focused on IT Value Added Resellers (VAR) and corporate IT departments who manage a large number of branch locations. Ready to go on the fundraising circuit, ihiji decided the timing was right to move into full membership at ATI to take advantage of its additional benefits, such as deeper engagement with ATI directors and further access to ATIs established network of peers, mentors, businesses, and investors.

Not only is Texas a great state for businesses, but Austin is on the rise, has a wonderful tech community and is also very livable. The structure of ATI was a good fit for our company and the Landing Pad Program helped us easily relocate from out of state and not miss a beat, said Stuart Rench, President of ihiji; adding that ATI staff has been great. Theyre there when you need them for ideas, thoughts, reviews and introductions. Were also able to take advantage of multiple directors depending on our challenge, which is nice because they each have their own perspectives and areas of expertise.

ihijis new NMaaS platform is based on the same cloud-based architecture as its award-winning remote monitoring and support solution, ihiji invision, and lowers its clients capital and operating expenditures, increases productivity, and improves profit margins by minimizing equipment and network outages.

ihiji is a classic example of a services business successfully morphing into a scalable product company providing enterprise software solutions. ihiji fits perfectly into the sweet spot of Austin’s tech ecosystem and ATI’s IT portfolio. In working with the ihiji team as they transitioned from the Landing Pad Program to a full member company, the team continually impresses with their vision and discipline as they have shifted gears and moved into the next phase of their growth strategy, said Kyle Cox, ATI IT/Wireless Director.

ManageEngine Hosts Webinar on Securing and Monitoring BYOD Networks Using NetFlow

Pleasanton, CA (PRWEB) June 21, 2012

PLEASANTON, Calif. June 21, 2012 ManageEngine, the real-time IT management company, today announced its upcoming webinar, Securing and Monitoring BYOD Networks Using NetFlow, which highlights ManageEngine NetFlow Analyzer, known for its flow-based traffic analytics tool.

The BYOD movement, due to its supposedly high cost savings to the organization and flexibility to the employee, has become the trending technology of the year. It has also brought to the enterprise a tremendous increase in the number of personal devices with no established device management policies and an associated rise of unverified applications and data. The onus is now on the network administrator to ensure that the enterprise network performance does not take a hit.

Don Thomas Jacob, head of the technical marketing team for NetFlow Analyzer at ManageEngine, will discuss the possible network issues that arise from adopting a pro-BYOD policy and why monitoring is a necessity in such networks. The webinar will further address how NetFlow technology can be used to monitor the network as well as to mitigate security threats that may arise from BYOD.

TURCK Rotary Single Axis CANopen Inclinometer Delivers 360 Degree Angle Monitoring

Minneapolis, MN (PRWEB) June 22, 2012

TURCK introduces the new rotary single axis inclinometer, expanding its dual axis CANopen inclinometer offering for angular tilt detection. With a monitoring range of 360 degrees, the single axis inclinometer provides extended application flexibility, allowing operators to easily monitor mechanical arms, such as tensioners or moving components. Its CANopen communications also makes it ideally suited for mobile equipment, such as monitoring and reporting position of outriggers, booms or other vertically rotating parts.

The single axis inclinometer measures angular tilt in reference to gravity. At the heart of the TURCK inclinometer are MEMS (micro-electro-mechanical system) devices that incorporate micro-electromechanical capacitive elements into the sensor that utilize two parallel plate electrodes, one stationary and one attached to a spring-mass system. Movement causes acceleration that produces deflection in the non-stationary electrodes. This results in a measurable change in the capacitance between the two plates that is proportional to the angle of deflection. All measured values and parameters are accessible via the object directory. The micro board design in the MEMS technology allows for a compact, precise inclinometer in a very robust, industrialized package.

Employing technology from our proven dual axis inclinometer, which monitors angles of up to 85 degrees in either the x or y axis, the single axis inclinometer extends the sensing capabilities to complete up to 360 degree rotational monitoring, said Marty Cwach, Product Manager at TURCK. Now, our customers can satisfy virtually any application requiring 360 monitoring.

TURCK single axis inclinometers offer rugged, IP68-rated housing and reliable operation in temperatures ranging from -40 to +70

Cargo Data Develops Innovative ATMS (Automated Temperature Monitoring System) to Assist Seafood and Meat Handlers in Complying with Proposed Temperature Monitoring Rules

Ventura, CA (PRWEB) June 26, 2012

Cargo Data’s new ATMS (Automated Temperature Monitoring System), is a fresh approach to cold chain monitoring. ATMS has been developed specifically to make compliance with new proposed Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA) regulations simple and automatic.

Cargo Datas updated ATMS combines low-cost, highly accurate digital temperature recorders, Express wireless handheld data retrieval device, and the innovative iMAT terminal. When using this combination of Cargo Data products as a system, Seafood and Meat handlers can achieve full compliance with the proposed FSMA (Section 103) temperature monitoring and data archiving requirements.

Using ATMS is as simple as 1-2-3. 1. Cargo Datas digital temperature recorders are retrieved from the shipment and docked with the Express handheld device. 2. In less than 5 seconds, Express displays the temperature data in familiar chart form and in numerical report format. This conveniently provides Receiving and QA personnel immediate evaluation of cold-chain integrityno need to connect the temperature recorder to a computer to view and/or print the temperature chart and details. 3. While the temperature data is displayed on the Express LCD, all the data is automatically transmitted via RF (wireless) to the nearby iMAT (Internet Monitoring and Tracking) terminal. iMAT automatically relays the temperature recorder data to Cargo Datas secure cloud server using the cell phone data network.

The iMAT terminal is about the size of a notebook and is easily installed in Perishables Receiving areas in just minutes. iMAT requires only standard 120VAC power and cell phone network access to function. Express will confirm on the large LCD that the data has indeed been sent and received by IMAT.

When using ATMS, within moments of arrival at destination, a shipments cold chain data is captured, viewed by the Receiver/QA inspector, and posted online, where it is archived for 2 years . The data can be reviewed at any time using the UpLink feature on Cargo Datas website. Involved parties can enter the unique recorder ID number in the UpLink field on the homepage to view, print, and/or save the data from the recorder. The UpLink feature means that handlers no longer need to waste time with a paper-based system of temperature data archiving, emailing or faxingthis data is available on demand from the Cargo Data website.

Cargo Datas Automated Temperature Monitoring System brings the newest technology to the Perishables Receiving dock. The system is remarkably simple to use, inexpensive, paperless, and provides handlers of Seafood, Meat, and all other perishable products with automated temperature data archiving. Cargo Data’s ATMS provides easy compliance with proposed FMSA temperature monitoring and archiving requirements with one simple off-the-shelf package.

SpectorSoft Provides Enterprises Using Mac OS with Detailed User Activity Monitoring Capabilities

(PRWEB) June 28, 2012

SpectorSoft Corporation, the leader in computer and mobile device monitoring and analysis software, today announced the availability of SPECTOR 360 7.4. This latest version of SpectorSofts User Activity Monitoring software for Mac and Windows networks enhances the industrys most advanced solution for monitoring the needs of computer networks with a mix of Mac and Windows operating systems, or of those dedicated to the Mac OS.

Using SPECTOR 360 7.4 User Activity Monitoring software, network administrators can now quickly and easily deploy, record, alert on and review the activity performed on Mac clients, making SPECTOR 360 unique in its ability to monitor the activities of employees running the Mac OS.

With its important Mac enhancements, SPECTOR 360 7.4 is in lockstep with the needs of the marketplace today by continuing to affirm the importance of the Mac in general, and the Mac on business networks specifically, said Mike Tierney, vice president of operations at SpectorSoft. Just a few years ago, analysts at Forrester Research suggested Windows PCs were the only computers companies needed to concern themselves with, but now that stance has nearly reversed. Forrester recently went on record urging business to prepare for a strong and continual influx of Macs in the workplace.

SPECTOR 360 User Activity Monitoring (UAM) provides detailed visibility into and analysis of the digital behavior of both Mac and Windows computer users, across all devices, on or off the network, across time, and within the context of their actions. SPECTOR 360 delivers screen captures of all activities that take place on Macs; these provide precise and accurate details that address a broad set of security, compliance, privacy and process-oriented issues in an automated, cost-effective manner. Without User Activity Monitoring, organizations must rely on costly, labor-intensive manual aggregation of logs and event alerts. Manual processes fail to provide reliable, complete results and frequently lead to failed audits, compliance violations and security incidents.

SPECTOR 360 7.4 is another powerful step forward for what already is the industrys leading User Activity Monitoring solution, said Tierney. Since inception, SPECTOR 360 has allowed IT and security professionals, human resources departments, legal counsel, general managers and business owners to keep their organizations secure and productive by monitoring the digital behavior of their users.

In addition to Forresters guidance regarding the importance of Macs in the business environment, the rise of catastrophic data breaches and insider threat has prompted another high-profile analyst Gartner, Inc. to pay close attention to User Activity Monitoring as a critical part of every organizations security arsenal.

In a March 2012 report entitled Information Security Is Becoming a Big Data Analytics Problem, Gartners Neil MacDonald advised, To help protect from insider attacks and to better detect advanced targeted attacks, organizations are increasing monitoring of all types, including detailed User Activity Monitoring.

SPECTOR 360 7.4 Does Detailed User Activity Monitoring

Activities monitored by SPECTOR 360 include email, chat/IM, files transferred, application use, websites visited, Internet searches, documents printed and data copied to removable storage devices. Plus, SPECTOR 360 includes SpectorSofts renowned Screen Playback function, a feature that permits the video-like playback of everything users have done at their Mac and Windows desktops and laptops.

User Activity Monitoring from SpectorSoft gives me complete visibility into the digital behavior of all the computers across my network, which includes Macs, said Celeste OKeefe, CEO of The DANCEL Group. The new version of SPECTOR 360 is going to make monitoring my Macs as easy as it has been to monitor my Windows-based computers. When it comes to SpectorSoft software, Im a believer. Every business needs to have it. It’s a new world with the technology we have out there, something we need to monitor.”

PhantomLink Launches Free Cloud-Based Alarm Monitoring and Notification Services

Albuquerque, NM (PRWEB) August 29, 2012

Just last month, Phantom Data Services, LLC announced the release of its PhantomLink security monitoring device as an open-source project. Continuing that trend, Phantom Data Services is now pleased to announce the launch of a free cloud-based alarm self-monitoring service to provide do-it-yourself alarm installers with the ability to monitor their systems over the web, and receive automatic email and text message notifications for no charge. The service is designed to work not only with PhantomLink devices, but also other custom electronic security systems built by do-it-yourselfers and electronics hobbyists. Services include a web-based dashboard for logging and reviewing alarm statistics, automated email and text message notifications triggered by specific alarm events, and a portal for linking to real-time webcam video streams.

“Nearly 80% of households in the U.S. have internet access,” says Adam Peters, PhantomLink.com’s founder. “So why are people still paying their hard-earned money to a central station to monitor their alarm? Just connect it to the internet and monitor it yourself! My goal for PhantomLink is to help as many people as possible break away from their expensive service contracts, save money, and get real value out of their security systems.”

Although several self-monitored alarm products already exist, most are email-based or hosted on a local server. However, PhantomLink’s cloud-based approach delivers several benefits, including (1) multiple data delivery methods (not just email), (2) fewer firewall and routing issues, (3) continual monitoring of network connection health, (4) off-site data logging, (5) more intelligent event processing and triggering, (6) integrated display and visualization tools (including webcam video), (7) an online management interface, (8) the ability to expand features and capabilities as more cloud technologies become available, (9) an open-source design that invites customization and enhancement, and (10) no-cost notification services.

Do-it-yourself alarm installers and electronics hobbyists can find free circuit schematics, source code, interface specifications, and instructions on the PhantomLink.com DIY page.

PhantomLink.com provides do-it-yourself remote security monitoring solutions. PhantomLink.com was developed by and is operated by Phantom Data Services, LLC, a New Mexico limited liability company specializing in website development services. Visit http://www.phantomlink.com for more information.

“Its gotta be simple” is the driving force behind the development, bringing together software, hardware and human engineering to create a 802.11-based product that allows for the perfect blend of aesthetics and technology.

While traditional programmable thermostats place a burden on the user to program every schedule from the front panel of the thermostat, this Internet thermostat allows point and click control from just about any browser on any device from anywhere theres a Wi-Fi or Internet connection. The UP32-WIFI is an automatic changeover 3-Heat / 2-Cool thermostat with programmability from just a single schedule to seven days per week with up to four events per day. Schedule programming is performed over the Wi-Fi connection, where it should be done, not from the front panel of the thermostat. Thermostat hieroglyphics and the energy wasteful hold button are a thing of the past. Its a powerful new product with the perfect combination of simple front-panel operation and sophisticated control from the browser, said Jerry Drew, NetworkThermostats President. In addition, creating an extended hold (vacation) can be quickly done from the thermostat front panel or from the Wi-Fi connection. With the UP32-WIFI, the user simply enters the day and time to return to normal schedules, allowing energy savings when away and energy efficiency when not.

Because this is an IP thermostat, secure Wi-Fi connection and control can occur from anywhere inside the home or business, and connection from the Internet if youre not at the thermostats location. In addition, controlling multiple UP32-WIFI thermostats is as easy as controlling one. Users have multiple options of using the free Internet-based Net/X Remote Device login tool, free Net/X Device Explorer tool for on-site LANs (both tools will list all of the users thermostats), the free Enterprise-Class Net/X Command Center software for drag-and-drop scheduling of multiple thermostats.

The UP32-WIFI has universal equipment control for conventional gas/electric, heat pump (including dual fuel), electric, and hydronic heat systems. The new thermostat engages both residential and commercial features, including Smart Schedule Recovery which allows intelligent temperature recovery, Efficient Equipment Restart which efficiently staggers scheduled start times to eliminate multiple units starting at once, adjustable override time and min/max setpoints, fan recirculation, vacation scheduling, keypad lockout, and many more powerful features.

While the UP32-WIFI is a great solution for simple residential or second-home installations, the thermostat also supports a long list of auxiliary inputs and sensors, making it ideal for commercial use. Its like having a miniature building automation system in a thermostat. Each UP32-WIFI supports ONE (1) OCCUPANCY SENSOR, TWO (2) DIGITAL INPUTS for condensate switch, dirty filter or other fault conditions, and the most advanced remote sensor bus on the market. The advanced remote sensor bus supports a total of ELEVEN (11) SENSORS with up to six (6) indoor remote sensors, an outdoor sensor, a humidity/temperature sensor, plus configurable auxiliary temperature sensors that allows up to three (3) separate monitoring and alerting points on every thermostat all on a simple 3-wire bus. The auxiliary temperature sensors can be used for a long list of measuring, monitoring and alerting including items such as supply air, return air, walk-in freezers, refrigerated display cases, computer rooms, wine rooms/cellars, cooling and heating water loops, pool/spa water temperatures and others.

The UP32-WIFI platform has the most powerful email and text message alerting available on a thermostat. Up to 4 email and text message destinations can be used for reminders and alerting of a myriad of conditions for both customer and service personnel. With the embedded secure email server, configuration for alerts are as simple as entering the email addresses and phone numbers. Then simply point-and-click the particular alert conditions and destinations. Alerts can be sent to the end user, service contractor, or both. Critical alerts can be repeated, if desired, until the alert condition has been corrected and the alert reset. There are a total of sixteen (16) different alert conditions available for use. The alerts include filter change reminders and a powerful Inefficient Equipment Run alert, allowing the contractor to know when equipment is not operating properly and to provide proactive service for his customer.

NetworkThermostat also teamed up with the most powerful weather service, Weatherbug

GL Announces Monitoring Clock or Frame Slips on T1 or E1 Lines

Gaithersburg, Maryland (PRWEB) September 12, 2012

GL Communications Inc. announced today the release of its latest T1 E1 Hardware product feature Clock Slip Measurement which monitors Clock and Frame Slips on T1 E1 Lines.

Speaking to reporters, Mr. Jagdish Vadalia Senior Manager of the company said, In a network, all switches use a single timing signal to transmit all signals in the outbound direction. This single timing is always derived directly from a single common reference timing signal available network wide. However, incoming signals may have timing variations due to propagation variations, re-clocking jitter, wander, frequency drift, etc. Due to this timing difference between transmit vs. receive signals; the network equipment may suffer an impairment by replicating data or deleting data. This is referred to as a Timing, Clock, Bit, or Frame Slip.

He added, Clock Slips are a count of the difference between a reference T1 E1 clock and another T1 E1 signal being measured. A Clock Slip is a one-second-interval measurement (accuracy of the timing slips is +/- 1 count) that arise because of phase differences or frequency differences of the incoming signal vs. the outgoing signal timing (the reference). Enough clock slips (usually counts reaching 192 or 193) create a frame slip, and eventually, loses or repeats data.

Mr. Vadalia explained, GLs T1 E1 Analyzer can measure Clock Slips between two T1 E1 timing signals. Different modes of Clock Slip that can be measured by T1 E1 hardware are:

Internal Clock Slip Reference:This Clock Slip measurement compares the incoming receive clock from the port against the internal clock provided by the unit. The software compares the internal counter to the recovered clock counter by storing these counts.

Crossport Clock Slip Reference: This Clock Slip measurement compares the incoming receive clock from Port #1 against the incoming receive clock from Port #2 using the Recovered Clock on Port #1 and Recovered Clock on Port #2.

External Clock Slip Reference:
