Paradyne 8784 manual Restoring Access to the User Interface, Resetting AutoRate

3. Initial Startup and Configuration

Resetting AutoRate

The Reset AutoRate function on the Control menu causes the unit to repeat the AutoRate sequence. The unit attempts to establish the DSL link at the highest rate (or the value of DSL Line Rate, which represents the AutoRate ceiling when AutoRate is enabled). If the link fails, the next lower rate is tried until the link is established.

To access the Reset AutoRate screen, follow this menu selection sequence:

Main Menu→ Control→ Reset AutoRate

Restoring Access to the User Interface

Improper configuration of the unit could render the user interface inaccessible. If this occurs, access can be restored using the MCC.
