Users Guide
To activate data lockout override, press F1 - Ovride from the Data Lockout screen. If DC voltage is
present on the line, the test set stops alarming and goes off hook, allowing the user to perform
normal Talk mode functions.
To go back on hook, select F2 - Hangup . This puts the test set back in Monitor mode. The override
must be manually reactivated each time the user wants to take a locked-out test set off hook.
Shorting the Tip and Ring leads together while connected to a data
line causes disruption to the data.

Caution
You can make calls on lines that have ADSL as well as those that do not. You
can also make calls while simultaneously testing the ADSL portion of a line.
Use the POTS/ADSL key to toggle between POTS and ADSL.
To originate a call:
1 Clip the test set to Tip and Ring of a powered subscriber loop.
2 Monitor (listen to) the line to verify it is idle.
3 If not idle, disconnect the test set from the line.
4 If idle, go to the POTS screen.
5 Press F2 - Talk . The test set automatically tests for high-speed data and
talk battery on the line.
6 If data is detected, the test set will not go off hook (will lockout) and will
beep indicating the presence of data. Try another line, or if you are sure
the data detection is false, you can override the data lockout (see Data
Lockout Override).
7 If no data is detected, the test set will go off hook.
8 The numeric keypad, LNR (F3), or SPD Dial may be used to dial a number
for originating a call.
To disconnect a call, press F 2 - Hangup.
