2 USING THE CRAFT INTERFACE
After the initial installation of a Soneplex Broadband system, most testing and local
operations are conducted with the Craft Interface through a VT-100 compatible terminal. This
terminal is connected either to the front panel of the MPU plug-in module, or through a port
located on the rear of the Soneplex Broadband chassis. Both of these connecting points
provide a standard EIA-232C interface.
(this section), provides instructions on how to use the Craft

BROADBAND CHASSIS (V5)
AT THIS TIME.
A logon is required to gain access to the Craft Interface. The logon remains active until either
the operator logs off or a user-selectable period of keyboard inactivity is exceeded. The
default time-out period is 30 minutes. Passwords are used to limit access to the system. When
you enter your assigned User Name, the Soneplex Broadband system will request a password.
When you enter your assigned password, the Main Menu appears. It includes the current
software version number (top right corner) and a copyright insignia. A default user ID and
password are available for a newly installed system; but to ensure system security, these
should be removed by the system administrator after the system is in operation.
3 EDITING FIELDS
The keyboard is used to select menus, view the various screens, and when necessary, to enter
alpha and numeric information into the system. Keyboard operations make use of the alpha
and numeric keys, arrow keys, enter or return key, space bar, and control key.
3.1 Cursor
ADCP-61-471 • Issue 4 • June 2000 • Section 1: Introduction
In the Craft Interface system, a cursor is used to indicate menu selections, option settings, and
data entry fields. The cursor may take the form of a block, a highlighted field, or a flashing
line. When selecting a menu, the cursor is moved by pressing either the arrow or number keys.
When selecting an option setting or making a data entry, the cursor is moved by pressing the
arrow keys.
3.2 Arrow Keys
The arrow keys are used to move the cursor to indicate menu selections, option settings, and
data entry fields. In screens that have more than one page, the up and down arrow keys also
move the screen up or down one line at a time. In the same screens, the left arrow key moves
the screen up one page and the right arrow key moves the screen down one page. Each time
the screen is moved down one page, the last line from the previous screen is displayed as the
first line on the new page. Each time the screen is moved up one page, the first line from the
previous screen is displayed as the last line on the new page.
3.3 Enter and Return Keys
The Enter and Return keys causes the system to act on the data that was entered. Selections
may be entered into the system in one of two ways:
1. By pressing an arrow key and then the Enter or Return key
once
.
2. By pressing the Enter or Return key

3.4 Space Bar
Pressing the space bar when the cursor is in a toggle field changes the item at the cursor. If the
item is selected from a list of options, pressing the space bar brings up the next choice.
3.5 “R” Key
If you press the “R” key by itself when you are in a toggle field, the selection will revert to its
previous value.
3.6 Control Key
Special functions are activated by pressing the Control key and another key at the same time,
as shown in Table 1-1.

3.7 Pop-Up Screens
In some areas of the Craft Interface, screens pop up presenting error data and information
screens to assist you in operating the system. The information is displayed in a box that appears
in front of the current screen display in reverse image (i.e., light on dark).
3.8 Help Screen
A help screen is available from all screens. Pressing CONTROL-A activates the help screen.
The help screen displays information about moving among the fields and making edits.

3.9 Data Entry
Table 1-2 shows the different field types in the Craft Interface, and how to enter data in them.
A "toggle" field type means the user can press the space bar and "R" key to view and select
different options that are described. An "input" field type means the user must type an entry in
the field according to the parameters described. A "fixed" field is locked, and cannot be changed
by the user.

4 USING A TOP DOCUMENT
The procedures in this section are written in the Task Oriented Practice (TOP) format. The TOP
method of presenting information provides step-by-step instructions for the successful completion
of the indicated task. To find the instructions for performing enclosure installation, plug-in unit
installation and initial turn-up, and installation troubleshooting tasks, follow these steps:
1. Find the task to be performed in the Task Index List (IXL-001).
2000, ADC Telecommunications, Inc.
Page 1-5
ADCP-61-471 • Issue 4 • June 2000 • Section 1: Introduction
2. Locate the specified director level, detail level, or trouble-clearing procedure. All
procedures are in numerical order, regardless of type. The TOP procedures in this
manual are of the following four types:
• Non Trouble Clearing Procedure (NTP): A director level procedure that lists normal
work items to be performed that are not trouble clearing procedures.
• Trouble Analysis Procedure (TAP): A director level procedure that provides step-bystep instructions to locate and fix trouble.
• Detailed Level Procedure (DLP): Detailed step-by-step instructions or procedures.
• Trouble Analysis Data (TAD): A trouble-clearing aid containing non-procedural data.
3. Perform all the items in the director level procedure (NTP or TAP) in the order listed
unless sent to another director level procedure. When a director level procedure is
finished, the task is completed. When more detailed information is required, the reader
will be sent to a DLP. A DLP may also direct the reader to another DLP.
When a DLP is complete, return to the procedure that preceded the DLP.
Note:
When sent from one director level procedure to another director level procedure,
Note:
in most instances it will not be necessary to go back to the first director level procedure
after competing the second.
4. In some procedures, it will be necessary to verify that certain responses have occurred. If
the expected response is not observed, refer to the appropriate TAP. If additional data is
required (such as a schematic diagram, line drawing, tabulated data, maintenance
philosophy, or trouble-clearing strategy), the reader will be sent to a TAD.

MODULE INSTALLATION AND TESTING PROCEDURES
NTP-002
Page 1 of 3
Summary
: This procedure provides instructions for installing the various modules in the
installed chassis and verifying operation. Installation includes inspecting the chassis for proper
installation, checking the power supply, inserting the modules into the chassis, and testing
various functions. This procedure assumes that the Soneplex Broadband chassis and associated
Heat Baffle/Fiber Management Panel are installed in the rack, and that all power, signal, and
alarm cables are connected. This procedure must be performed before attempting to test or
operate the entire circuit or system that will be using this equipment.
Danger:
To avoid electric shock, be careful when working near HDSL loop connections
or telecommunications circuits. An electrical potential of ±130 volts exists on HDSL
loop connections and telecommunications circuits. Coming in contact with this high
electrical potential will result in death or severe personal injury.
Caution: Electronic modules can be damaged by electrostatic discharge (ESD). Before
handling modules, wear an anti-static discharge wrist strap to prevent damage to
electronic components. Place modules in anti-static packing material when transporting
or storing. When working on modules, always place them on an approved anti-static mat
that is electrically grounded.
Do Items Below in the Order Listed For Details Go To
1. Obtain the following tools and equipment:
• #2 or #3 Phillips-head screwdriver
• Anti-static wrist strap
• Digital volt ohmmeter (VOM)
• Optical power meter (if installing ODS2 modules)
• Standard hand tools
• Two fiber optic patch cables (1 to 3 meters long each)
2. Open Soneplex Broadband chassis front cover.
3. Inspect the Soneplex Broadband chassis for proper installation and
correct installation of all cables. Refer to the Soneplex Broadband
System Chassis Installation Manual, listed under Related
Publications at the beginning of this manual, for more information.
4. If required, unpack modules from their shipping container (they may
be stored in the chassis). Inspect for damage or missing parts. DLP-500

ODS2 MODULE AND REMOTE SYSTEM END-TO-END TEST PROCEDURES
Summary
: This procedure tells how to connect a Craft Interface device to the Soneplex
equipment and configure ODS2 modules. It also tells how to connect test equipment, and how to
perform an end-to-end test of a Soneplex system with ODS2 modules. Protection switching tests
are also provided in case protect modules are employed in the system. The procedure assumes
the equipment in the Soneplex chassis and at the remote Fiber Loop Converter has been installed
and has passed local tests. It also assumes that fiber has been installed at both ends and the
circuit connection is complete. This procedure must be performed before attempting to operate
the entire circuit or system that will be using this equipment.
:
Danger
Do not look into the ends of any optical fiber, or look directly into the module
fiber connectors. Exposure to invisible laser radiation may result, which can damage the
retina of the eye. An optical power meter should be used to verify active fibers.
:
Danger
To avoid electric shock, be careful when working near HDSL loop connections
or telecommunications circuits. An electrical potential of ±130 volts exists on HDSL

Modules can be damaged by electrostatic discharge (ESD). Before
handling any modules, ESD protection must always be used. An ESD grounding
post is located on the chassis for connecting the ESD wrist band. Ensure that all
modules removed from the equipment or not installed, are properly stored in antistatic packing material. When working with modules, always place the module on
an electrically-grounded, approved, anti-static mat.
When installing a new MPU module, use the same DIP switch settings on
Note:
the MPU’s printed circuit board as the DS3 MUX’s DIP switch settings. Keeping
both switch settings the same enables communication between the MPU and the
DS3 MUX for OAM&P.
Note:
When replacing an MPU in a configured chassis, the configuration data
from the modules in the chassis is automatically loaded into the new MPU. If an
MPU from a provisioned chassis is
moved
to another chassis, the chassis unit
configurations may not match the MPU unit configurations, resulting in alarms
and erroneous information. Refer to DLP-519 (Replace MPU and Verify StandAlone Operation) for more information.
1. Open the shipping carton and carefully unpack the MPU from its protective packaging.
Note:
DO NOT change any DIP switch settings on the printed circuit board of the
MPU; this could make the MPU incompatible with your Soneplex Broadband system.
2. Refer to Figure 502-1 for a drawing showing the MPU module slot in the chassis. Align the
edges of the printed circuit card with the card guides in the chassis.
3. Using the ejector, push the MPU into the slot marked MPU located in the lower right
corner of the chassis until it is firmly seated in the connector. If there is excessive
resistance, remove the module and check for improper alignment or obstructions.
4. Use the screw to secure the MPU to chassis.

ODS2 MODULE INSTALLATION AND TESTING
DLP-506
Page 1 of 5
Summary:
This procedure describes how to install working and protect ODS2 modules in the
Soneplex Broadband chassis, as well as how to troubleshoot the installation. The working ODS2
module must be installed before the protect ODS2 module.
Safety Considerations
Sufficient invisible infrared energy can be emitted from the end of an active fiber or operational
transmitter to seriously damage the retina of the eye. Danger labels located on the chassis, alert
you to the potential of exposure to invisible laser radiation. Observe the procedures described in
the following Danger notice.
Danger:
radiation may result. An optical power meter should be used to verify active fibers. Do
not look directly into the module fiber connectors. Exposure to invisible laser radiation
may result.
Warning:
connecting the optical fiber to the module. Exposure to invisible laser radiation may
occur if the module edge connectors are allowed to connect with the chassis connectors
before connecting the optical fiber to the module. Verify that all indicators are dark (off)
and the module is not engaged with the chassis connectors before proceeding.
Do not look into the ends of any optical fiber. Exposure to invisible laser
Do not insert module edge connectors into the chassis connectors before
Caution:
The ODS2 module MUST be unequipped when it is in the chassis with the
optical loopback patch cord; otherwise, the Craft Interface will not function properly
when accessing the module. Before seating the ODS2 module in the chassis, check the
ODS2 Configuration screen to be sure that the module’s Unit Equip State is set to
UNEQUIPPED.
Caution:
Always allow sufficient fiber length to permit routing without severe bends.
Fibers may be permanently damaged if bent/curved to a radius of less than
1.5 inches (3.81 cm).
Caution:
Modules can be damaged by electrostatic discharge (ESD). Before handling
any modules, ESD protection must always be used. An ESD grounding post is located on
the chassis for connecting the ESD wrist band. Ensure that all modules removed from
the equipment or not installed, are properly stored in anti-static packing material. When
working with modules, always place the modules on an electrically-grounded, approved,
anti-static mat.
When using ODS2 modules in a group, NEVER install other Soneplex modules

HDSL-EQUIPPED CIRCUIT CROSS-CONNECTS
DLP-515
Page 1 of 1
Summary:
This procedure provides instructions for making any necessary cross-connects on
HDSL loops, and then re-install the HLXC modules.
Danger:
To avoid electric shock, be careful when working near HDSL loop connections
or telecommunications circuits. An electrical potential of ±130 volts exists on HDSL
loop connections and telecommunications circuits. Coming in contact with this high
electrical potential will result in death or severe personal injury.
Caution:
Electronic modules can be damaged by electrostatic discharge (ESD). Before
handling modules, wear an anti-static discharge wrist strap to prevent damage to
electronic components. Place modules in anti-static packing material when transporting
or storing. When working on modules, always place them on an approved anti-static mat
that is electrically grounded.
1. Open the chassis cover.
2. Use the ejector at the bottom of each HLXC module front panel to carefully disengage the
module from its connector.
3. Withdraw each HLXC module part way to break electrical contact with the backplane
connector.
The HLXC module can be configured to supply –130 VDC simplex current over
Note:
the HDSL loops to supply power to the remote HLXR modules. When an HDSL
Repeater (HRX) is in the HDSL loops, HLXC modules can be configured to supply
±130 VDC. Partially withdrawing the HLXC module ensures that current is not present
when cross-connects are installed.
4. At the central office, make necessary cross-connects at the Main Distribution Frame, or
other facility, in accordance with local practice.
5. At the remote location, make necessary cross-connects at the remote distribution frame, or
other facility, in accordance with local practice.
6. Re-install the HLXC module(s) in their mounting slots.
Stop! You have completed this procedure.

HLXC INSTALLATION AND TESTING
Summary:
This procedure provides instructions for installing the Version C, D, E, or G HLXC
module, which mounts in the half-height slots located in the middle of the chassis. A typical
HDSL Loop Extension (HLX) system consists of an HLXC module installed in the chassis and
an HLXR module installed at a remote location. There is no protection for the module or signal
when using HDSL circuits.
Caution:
Modules can be damaged by electrostatic discharge (ESD). Before handling
any modules, ESD protection must always be used. Ensure that all modules removed
from the chassis or not installed are properly stored in anti-static packing material.
When working with modules, always place the module on an electrically-grounded,
approved, anti-static mat.
When using HLXC modules in a group, NEVER install ODS2 modules in any of
Note:
the unused slots in the group.
1. Select the HLXC module. If it is not already installed, remove the module from its
protective ESD packaging. If the HLXC module is installed, remove it and inspect for
physical damage.
2.
Version C HLXC only:
locate the configuration switches on the HLXC module printed
circuit board as shown in Figure 516-1.
3.
Version C HLXC only:
set the configuration switches as specified in the work order.
These switch settings do not need to be set if the unit is to be provisioned via the software.
Otherwise, refer to Figure 516-1 for the switch handle settings. The following operating
parameters are switch-selectable:
• Loop 2 (enable/disable)
• Loop Power (on/off)
With loop 2 enabled, both HDSL loops will be active allowing a full DS1 payload.
Note:
With loop 2 disabled, the first 12 DS0 channels will be carried on loop 1 and DS0
channels 13 through 24 will be filled with all ones (fractional DS1).
When the Loop Power switch is set to the ON position, the HLXC module
Note:
supplies –130 VDC simplex power to the loops.
4. Determine which HLXC slots are to be used, referring to your work order and Figure 516-
2. Chassis slots 1-1 through 7-4 correspond to DS1 signals 1 through 28. See Table 516-1.

5. Align the edges of the printed circuit card with the card guides in the chassis. Use the
injector at the bottom of the front panel to press the HLXC module into the chassis. If there
is excessive resistance to insertion, remove the module and check for improper alignment
or obstructions.
6. Perform the initial start-up test detailed in Figure 516-3, observing the front panel LEDs,
and verify that each LED operates as specified. Refer to Figure 516-4 for front panel
layouts of the different HLXC versions.
• If the STATUS LED is green following self-test, proceed to Step 7.
• If the STATUS indicator is red, the HLXC module has failed self-test diagnostics.
Remove and then reinsert the HLXC module and then wait while the HLXC module
again performs self-test diagnostics. If the STATUS indicator turns red at the end of the
second self-test, the HLXC module is defective. Remove and replace the HLXC, and
then repeat Steps 1 through 6.
7. Press the LMPTST switch on the APU to verify that the all the indicators on the HLXC
module front panel light yellow. This indicates that each indicator is functional.
• If each indicator is yellow, continue to Step 8 or 9.
• If each indicator is not yellow, the HLXC module is defective. Remove and replace the
HLXC, and then repeat Steps 1 through 7.
8. Version C HLXC only: if the Loop Power option is selected in Step 3, measure DC voltage
and DC current being supplied to the HLXR. (The Version E and Version D HLXC defaults
to loop power enabled.)

INITIAL START-UP TEST AND STAND ALONE OPERATION
Note: When an HRX is installed, the HLXC indicators
only verify the loop segment between the HLXC and
the HRX.
After the HLXC is installed in the chassis, its STATUS indicator
will initially turn red to indicate the start of self-test diagnostics.
While the self-test is in progress, all indicators will briefly
turn yellow. Then all indicators except STATUS will turn off.
Following the successful completion of the self-test, the HLXC
front panel indicators will appear as follows:
STATUS
Green to indicate that the self-test was
successfully completed.
RMT/HSKP Off.
Off.LPBK
DS1 LOS/BER Red to indicate that a DS1 signal is not
being received by the HLXC.
HDSL CONT/SNR Red (after a short delay) if loop power
is enabled which indicate the HDSL
loops are open. Off if loop power is
disabled.
L1 and L2
LOSW/BER
Red to indicate that the HDSL loops are not
synchronized (i.e., HLXR is not in service).
If loop 2 is disabled, the L2 indicators will
stay off.

MPU REPLACEMENT AND TESTING
Summary
This procedure provides instructions for installing a previously configured MPU in a chassis
(whether provisioned or not) and verifying that the MPU is functioning. When an MPU from a
provisioned chassis is moved to another chassis, the chassis unit (module) configurations may
not match the MPU unit configurations. These instructions explain how to avoid unwanted data
replacements or data conflicts. The MPU contains both general configuration data and unit
configuration data.
All configuration data can be restored to the MPU by performing a database upload or download
procedure. The upload is outlined in DLP-554 (Configuration Data Upload Command), and the
download is outlined in DLP-555 (Configuration Data Download Command).
General Configuration Data
System administration and maintenance tasks create general configuration data (alarm levels,
PM thresholds, system identification, port configuration, and user account data).
Unit Configuration Data
Individual module configurations create unit configuration data (which includes unit service
state, framing, line coding, etc.) Unit configuration data does not need to be re-entered as long as
the chassis remains powered and transmission units remain installed. Unit configuration data is
also stored in the transmission units and is loaded back into a non-configured MPU
automatically.
When installing a replacement MPU module, use the same DIP or rotary switch
Note:
settings on the MPU’s printed circuit board as the MPU you are removing.
When an MPU is removed from a powered-up chassis, the MPU retains both
Note:
general and unit configuration data for at least 24 hours. Do not install a still-configured
MPU in an already-configured chassis. If you want to retain unit configuration data in all
transmission units (or prevent alarms) and you are installing a previously configured
MPU, verify that the MPU’s unit configuration data is gone before you re-install it.
Caution:
older revision than the currently installed MPU. A corrupted database may result.
Do NOT re-install MPUs with revisions older than 3.1, or MPUs that have an
Caution:
Electronic modules can be damaged by electrostatic discharge (ESD). Before
handling modules, wear an anti-static discharge wrist strap to prevent damage to
electronic components. Place modules in anti-static packing material when transporting
or storing. When working on modules, always place them on an approved anti-static mat
that is electrically grounded.

1. To save the replacement MPU’s current configuration data, upload configuration data to the
host computer. Contact the Technical Assistance Center at ADC Telecommunications,
described in the General Information section of this manual, for more information.
Reference:
DLP-554 Configuration Data Upload Command
2. Locate the mounting slot designated for the MPU as shown in Figure 519-1.
3. Align the edges of the module printed circuit card with the guides in the chassis slot. Use
the injector at the bottom of the front panel to press the MPU into the chassis. If there is
excessive resistance to insertion, remove the module and check for improper alignment and
obstructions.
If you are not sure that the MPU’s database is cleared, contact the ADC Technical

Assistance Center at 1-800-366-3891, ext. 3223, or 1-612-946-3223 for more
information.
4. Use the screw provided to secure the MPU to the top edge of the chassis.
5. Observe the STATUS LED as shown in Figure 519-2. Initially, the status LED will be
yellow while the MPU performs self-test diagnostics. When the self-test diagnostics are
successfully completed, the STATUS LED will turn green.
• If the STATUS LED is green, continue to Step 6.
• If the STATUS LED is red, the MPU has failed self-test diagnostics. Press the MPU
RESET switch and then wait while the MPU again performs self-test diagnostics. If the
STATUS LED turns red at the end of the second self-test, the MPU is defective.
Remove and replace the MPU, and then repeat Steps 2 through 5.
6. Press the LMPTST switch on the APU to verify that the STATUS LED on the MPU front
panel lights yellow. This indicates that the LED is functional. If the STATUS LED does not
light yellow, the MPU is defective. Remove and replace the MPU, and then repeat Steps 2
through 5.
7. Connect a VT-100 (or equivalent) control terminal or host computer to the MPU Craft port.
Reference:
DLP-504 Local Craft Interface Connection
8. Turn the power on to the control terminal or host computer and press Enter or Return. The

configuration and alarm reporting for this module.
The installation procedure consists of unpacking the RLXIOR, setting two configuration
switches, installing the RLXIOR in the chassis, and verifying that it is functioning
properly. The RLXIOR may be installed in either a Soneplex Broadband chassis or a
Soneplex Loop Extender chassis.
Caution:
made between chassis ground and –48V return at a location in the central office,
following local practices. It is recommended that this connection be made outside the
Soneplex chassis.
Caution:
handling modules, wear an anti-static discharge wrist strap to prevent damage to
electronic components. Place modules in anti-static packing material when transporting
or storing. When working on modules, always place them on an approved anti-static mat
that is electrically grounded.
To enable span power on the RLXIOR module, a proper connection must be
Electronic modules can be damaged by electrostatic discharge (ESD). Before
1. Open the shipping carton and carefully unpack the RLXIOR from the protective packing
material. See Figure 524-1.
2. Set the configuration switches on the RLXIOR to match the requirement of the work order.
See Figure 524-2 for the location of switches. The following operating parameters are
switch-selectable:
• Line Power (–130 Vdc or ± 130 Vdc)
• Channel Blocking Idle Code (7Fhex or FFhex)
Factory default settings for the RLXIOR switches are –130 Vdc for Line Power
Note:
and 7Fhex for Channel Blocking Idle Code.
3. Align the edges of the RLXIOR module with the slot guides. Use the ejector to press the
module into the backplane connector in one of the module locations, as shown in Figure
524-3. If excessive resistance is encountered, remove the module and check for
obstructions or improper alignment.
