4. PROVISIONING
All provisioning will be handled through the SCU communication link, either through the menu access or SNMP. There are no onboard DIP switches or jumpers. The unit will retain provisioning data in a nonvolatile memory device in case of a loss of power to the module.
Total Access 3000 system management and provi- sioning is facilitated by a series of intuitive menus that are accessible on a computer screen. Connecting either a VT100 terminal or a PC emulating a VT100 terminal to the craft interface on the SCU front panel allows access to the menus and management features of the Total Access 3000.
The front craft access port for the Total Access 3000 system is located on the front panel of the SCU and is a
NOTE
Connecting to the Total Access 3000 chassis from the front craft port on the SCU requires a straight serial data cable. Connection to the Total Access 3000 chassis via the rear connector on the backplane requires the use of a null modem cable, because that port is configured for a modem and expects to see DCE equipment.
The parameters of the VT100 terminal should be set as follows:
•9600 Baud
•No parity
•8 Data bits
•1 Stop bits
•No Flow Control
Windows HyperTerminal
Windows HyperTerminal can be used as a VT100 terminal emulation program. Open HyperTerminal by selecting Programs/Accessories/HyperTerminal. Refer to the Help section of HyperTerminal for additional information.
NOTE
To ensure proper display background, select VT100 terminal emulation under Settings.
Password and User ID
Password protection is factory enabled. If password protection is enabled, the SCU will display the logon screen, and a valid account name and password are required to access menus. The factory default account names and default passwords (both are case sensitive) are displayed in Table 3.

Menu Navigation
The following subsection describes the SHDSL T1/E1 LTU menus. Most menu selections are made by typing the corresponding number and then pressing ENTER. If the wrong selection is made, pressing ESC will display the previous screen. The Question Mark (?) can be used at any time to display a list of menu commands.
Main Menu
The Total Access Main menu allows the user to access the module for various functions such as provisioning, status, alarms, and performance monitoring.
The menu tree in Figure 3 illustrates the path to every provisioning, performance, and test access point in the SHDSL T1/E1 menu system.
Table 4 lists the complete set of configurable options with settings and factory default values.
