VERIFICATION
Once the H2TU-C is installed, verify that it is operating properly. To do this, monitor the following:
•Status LED
•Status messages reported by the front-panel display (Table 2 on page 5 lists the status messages).
Verification without an H2TU-R Remote Unit
If there is no H2TU-R remote unit installed:
1Verify that the H2TU-C powers up. The front-panel display illuminates and reports status messages. (See
Table 2 on page 5 lists the messages.)
2Verify that the H2TU-C attempts to communicate with a remote unit (status LED flashes red). Even if a
remote unit is not present, the following events should occur:
aThe front-panel display reports various four-character status messages.
bThe H2TU-C again attempts communicatio n with a remote unit until a remote unit is detected.
Verification with an H2TU-R Remote Unit
If an H2TU-R remote unit has been installed:
1Verify that the H2TU-C powers up. (The front-panel display illuminates and reports various status messages.)
2Verify that the H2TU-C attempts to communicate with the remote unit (status LED flashes red). One of the
following occurs:
•If the remote unit is successfully identified and the HDSL2 loop synchronizes, the H2TU-C status LED
lights a steady green. The H2TU-C reports normal margin messages o n the front-panel display.
•If the remote unit is not identified, the H2TU-C reports four-character status messages. The H2TU-C
attempts communication again and reports four-character status messages. The H2TU-C repeats this
cycle until a remote unit is detected.
3Verify that a valid DS1 signal has been applied to the H2TU-C and the H2TU-R.
•If no DS1 signal is being applied to either the H2TU-C or the H2TU-R inputs, then the appropriate DS1
alarms (LLOS or RLOS) display on the front panel and the status LED flashes red.
•If a valid DS1 signal is being supplied to the H2TU-C and H2TU-R, then DS1 alarm indications should
be absent and the status LED should be a steady green.
H2TU-C-319 List 4EJanuary 9, 2002 9
Provisioning LTPH -UM-1049-02, Issue 2
PROVISIONING
There are two provisioning methods:
•Use the MODE and LBK pushbuttons on the front panel of the H2TU-C to:
–Set system options
–Reset the H2TU-C to its factory default settings for system options
–Display system option settings (scroll mod e)
–Select system loopbacks

•Use a maintenance terminal, such as an ASCII terminal or a PC running terminal emulation software,
connected to the H2TU-C craft port or an HMU craft port to access the maintenance screens. Figure 3 on
page 13 shows the maintenance screen. This provides full access to all H2TU-C status, histor y, inventory, and
provisioning screens.
No dip switches or jumpers are required to provision the H2TU-C as it contains a non-volatile
RAM (NVRAM) which stores the system option settings. System option settings are retained if
shelf power is lost or if the H2TU-C is unplugged.
USINGTHE MODE AND LBK PUSHBUTTONS
Setting Options through MODE and LBK
To provision the H2TU-C through the MODE and LBK pushbuttons on the front panel:
1Press the MODE pushbutton for 1 second and then release it. The front panel display alternately shows the
first system parameter and its current setting.
2Press the LBK pushbutton to step through all possible settings of the selected paramete r.
3After the desir ed s e ttin g ha s been selected, press the MODE pushbutton. This updates the current displayed
parameter to the selected setting, then advances to the next configurable parameter. After the last parameter
has been selected, a CONF NO message appears on the front-panel display.
4Do one of the following:
•To cancel the session without saving the requested parameter changes, press the MODE pushbutton or
do nothing. After 30 seconds, the display returns to its normal mo de without saving the new changes.
•To accept the requested parameter changes, press the LBK pushbu tton. A CONFYES message displays,
and the display returns to its normal mode after saving the new changes.

2Press the LBK pushbutton until the DFLT NO message is displayed.
The message changes to DFLT YES indicating the factory default values are now in effect and the display
returns to the normal mode.
To terminate the DFLT mode without setting the factory default values, do one of the following:
•Press the MODE pushbutton to return to the normal display mode.
•Wait 30 seconds for the unit to return to the normal display mode.
Displaying System Parameter Settings
To scroll through the current settings of all system parameters, press the MODE pushbutton for 3 or more seconds.
The H2TU-C displays the following parameters:
•H2TU-C software version number
•H2TU-C list number
•Type of frame pattern received from the DSX-1
•Line code of the signal received from the DSX-1
•All user-configured parameter settings
•Loop attenuation threshold setting
•Margin alarm threshold setting
Disabling an Alarm
System alarms can be disabled by pressing the LBK pushbutton on the H2TU-C front panel. This executes an
ACO and returns the H2TU-C to its non-alarm state. For more information, see “Retiring System Alarms” on
page 53.
