LOOPBACK TESTING
Initiate loopback testing from the HiGain maintenance menus or use the MODE and SEL
pushbuttons. The inband codes shown below can be sent by a test set.

Craft port provisioning
To access all system maintenance, provisioning
and performance screens, connect a standard
9-pin terminal cable between the serial port on a PC
and the HLU craft port.
Observe HDSL & DS1 pinouts and wire accordingly to avoid placing
HDSL span power voltage on DS1 equipment. Wiring these leads
incorrectly will result in equipment damage and void all warranties.

Front-Panel Diagnostic Messages
Message (a)
(a) Normal operating messages are in bold.
Description
1=xx or 2=yy Indicates the power of the received HDSL signal on each loop relative to noise. Any value
of 6 dB or greater is adequate for reliable system operation.
nHDU Number (n) of doublers in the circuit.
INSL xxDB The maximum Insertion Loss (INSL) message appears followed by xxdB, where xx is the
maximum insertion in dB of all spans and loops.
ACQ1 or ACQ2 The multiplexers of the HLU and the HRU, or the first doubler, are trying to establish
synchronization over Loop 1 or Loop 2 of Span 1.
AnL1 or AnL2 The multiplexers of the two devices on Span nare trying to establish synchronization with
each other on Loop 1 or Loop 2, where nis the number of the span.
BAD RT? The HLU is not receiving any response from the HRU.
FERR Framing bit error occurred at HLU DSX-1 input.
H1ES or H2ES HDSL Loop 1 or Loop 2 CRC error.
LBPV A local bipolar violation has been received at the DSX-1 input to the HLU.
MNGD The HLU is under control of the HMU-319 network management unit.
PWR FEED GND One of the HDSL loops has been grounded.
PWR FEED ON Indicates that the HDSL loops are not grounded.
PWR FEED OFF HDSL span power has been turned off.
PWR FEED SHRT Indicates a short between the two HDSL pairs or the inability of the HRU to communicate
with the HLU.
SELF TEST The HLU is in a self-test mode. This occurs every power on/off cycle.
SIG1 or SIG2 The transceivers of the HLU and HRU, or first doubler, are trying to establish contact with
each other on Loop 1 or Loop 2 of Span 1.
SnL1 or SnL2 The transceivers of the two devices on Span nare trying to establish contact with each
other on Loop 1 or Loop 2, where nis the number of the span.
TLOS HRU is in a logic loopback state caused by a loss of its T1 input from the CI (if enabled
at the HRU through its TLOS switch options).
