I need some help interpreting the information below. I want to diag my IPE fiber remote but, the commands that are listed below only get me swartzed. If I don't need to be in a load why won't SUBM work? Can I not do this from the normal Maint Console? Help please!!!!!

Fault isolation and correction using MMI maintenance commands

You can perform some testing and troubleshooting of the Fibre Remote IPE
from a local or a remote MMI terminal or TTY by typing MMI commands on
the terminal without loading system diagnostic programs (overlays).
These commands provide current equipment status, invoke card testing,
check equipment performance, print messages from log files, and so on.

Procedure 7
Checking Fibre Remote IPE using MMI commands
This procedure uses MMI commands to maintain Fibre Remote IPE cards, and
fibre-optic link status. You can send these commands from the local MMI terminal to be executed by the remote site MMI terminal and vice versa by executing the SUBM string command, where string is the actual command sent to the other side.
For example, SUBM PLOG 10 entered at the local MMI terminal will request
that the remote site prints 10 messages from the log file located in the Fibre
Peripheral Controller card memory.

To obtain the Fibre Superloop Network and Fibre Peripheral Controller cards
status:
1 Log in on the MMI maintenance terminal.

2 Type STAT to check the status or the card connected to the MMI
terminal.
The response:
The card is enabled by the CPU, when enabled. The phase-lock loop
can be locked to the incoming signal or not, and the PLL may be locked
on the primary or secondary packlet.
Enabled/Disabled PLL: lock/unlock prim/sec

3 Type TEST P/S and press the Enter key, where P tests the primary
packlet and S tests the secondary packlet.
The response is one of the self-test messages listed in Appendix A.

4 Type QFIB and press the Enter key to query the status of the
fibre-optic link.
The response:
PRIM physical/signal/direction
SEC physical/signal/direction
physical represents the status of the Electro-optical packlet, which
can be equipped, unequipped, or faulty.
signal represents the status of the incoming signal, which can be SF
(signal failed), SD (signal degrade not implemented in Rev 1 H/W), or
NA (no alarm).
direction represents the direction of traffic on the link, which can be
incoming, outgoing, bothways, or none.

5 Type QALM and press the Enter key to query the alarm status of the
fibre-optic link.
The response:
PRIM alarm type
SEC alarm type
alarm on the Electro-optical packlet can be red (local alarm), yellow
(remote alarm), or clear (no alarm).
type indicate one of the following types of alarm when it exists: LOS,
LOF, LOP, or FERF.

6 Type PRPM {prim/sec} and press the Enter key to print the
Performance Monitoring report for the primary and secondary
fibre-optic links.
The format of the response is shown in Table 13.
Table 13 shows the format for the Performance Monitoring report. The
report shows a matrix or fibre-optic link performance parameter values
for different interval counters listed in the header and intervals listed in
the first column.
