    POTS (Plain Old Telephone Service) and ISDN (Integrated Services Digital Network). The line from the user carries both the VDSL and voice signals. For each line, the VES-1012 has a built-in splitter that separates the high frequency VDSL signal from the voice band signal and feeds the VDSL signal to the VES-1012, while the voice band signal is diverted to the CO (Central Office) port.

    3 if the problem is with the fans and step 4 if the voltages are out of the allowed ranges. If the unit is overheated, turn it off and wait for it to cool down. Ensure the VES-1012 is installed in a well- ventilated area and that normal operation of the fans is not inhibited.

  • Page 37: Testing Wiring

    A. Test A determines if there is a wiring problem between the CO and MDF 1. B. Test B determines if there is a wiring problem between the CO Telco port on the VES-1012 and MDF 2. C. Test C determines if there is a wiring problem between the USER Telco port on the VES-1012 and MDF 3.

  • Page 38: Table 6-5 Testing Wiring

    If the problem remains, check the pin assignments of the CO Telco connector. If the problem remains, then the VES-1012 or MDF 2 is faulty. Repeat the test in step A using MDF 2 to determine if MDF 2 has problems. Contact the telephone company if that is the case.

  • Page 39: Appendix A Removing And Installing A Fuse

    The VES-1012 uses two 250V-3A fuses. The VES-1012 comes with four 250V-3A fuses; two are installed at the factory (in the fuse housing), while the two are spares that come with your VES-1012. If you need to install new fuses, follow the procedure below.
  • Page 40 Push the replacement fuse(s) into the fuse housing until you hear a click. Step 1. Firmly, but gently, push the fuse housing back into the VES-1012 housing until you hear a click. Step 2. Plug the power cord back into the unit.
