Solutions for common problems that may occur with the HDU-409 in
PG-Flex applications are listed in

Problem Solution

2 Verify proper cabling between the doubler enclosure and the CO.
3 Measure 150 Vdc between pins 5 or 6 and/or 9 of the HDU. This voltage
peaks every two minutes during the HDSL startup cycle. If less than 100
Vdc is present, check the cabling between the doubler enclosure and
PG-Flex COT shelf. Refer to the COLU practice and verify the COLU is
operating properly.

2 Check the cabling between the doubler housing and the PG-Flex COT
shelf. Measure the resistance of the HDSL input loop. Resistance should
be normal loop resistance plus the 25 signature of the COLU.

very short the doubler on Loop 2 has the same affect. On Loop 1, however, the DC
bursts power does not shut off because of a ground fault. When there is a ground
fault on Loop 1, the doubler limits its output voltage to approximately -40V.
Pair 2 maintains the normal 130V. This is enough voltage to power the
doubler, but not the RT. Typically the HDSL Loop 1, after the doubler, will
drop the resync periodically. Note that if the pairs are reversed, the polarity
of the voltages are reversed.
Remove the line units and doublers and check for cable faults.
