Viewing System Screens

 

 

VIEWING SYSTEM SCREENS

The H2TU-R-402 supports both local and remote logon through a maintenance terminal (ASCII terminal or PC running terminal emulation software) connected to its front-panel craft port.

From the maintenance terminal you can access menus and screens that are replications of those viewed at the H2TU-C. You can view system settings and inventory, initiate loopbacks, and monitor performance. If the Remote Provisioning option is enabled at the H2TU-C, you can configure the circuit.

Initial provisioning of the HiGain HDSL2 system is performed at the H2TU-C line unit. For more information about the HiGain HDSL2 screens, provisioning, and troubleshooting, download the appropriate H2TU-C line unit user manual from the ADC website at www.adc.com. To order a hard copy, please contact your sales representative.

To connect to a maintenance terminal:

1Connect a standard 9-pin serial cable to the RS-232 craft port (Figure 1 on page 3) on the H2TU-R-402 front panel.

2Connect the other end of the cable to the serial port on the maintenance terminal.

3Start a terminal emulation program such as ProComm (emulating a VT100 terminal).

4Configure the maintenance terminal to the following communication settings:

•9600 baud

•8 data bits

•1 stop bit

•Hardware flow control to OFF

5If necessary, press CTRL + R to refresh the HiGain HDSL2 logon screen.
