B8ZS/AMI
Solid yellow B8ZS is provisioned at the H2TU-C.
Flashing yellow once every second B8ZS and excess zeros string are present at the H2TU-C.
Solid green AMI is provisioned at the H2TU-C.
Flashing green once every second AMI and BPV are present at the H2TU-C.
LBK
OFF H2TU-C is not in loopback.
Solid yellow H2TU-C is in either NLOC or CREM (RLB).
To comply with the intrabuilding wiring requirements of GR-1089
CORE, Section 4.5.9, the shields of the ABAM-type cables that
connect the line unit DSX-1 output ports to the cross-connect
panel must be grounded at both ends.

Table 3. Maintenance Terminal Config Menu—Standard Options
Standard Option
Function
Loopback Timeout
Sets automatic cancellation of all loopbacks to NONE, 20 min, 60 min, or
(LBTO)
120 min after activation.
Loop Attenuation
Determines the maximum loop attenuation (0 to 40 dB) before an alarm is
Threshold (LATT)
declared. Zero disables the alarm. Default setting is 32 dB.
Margin Threshold
Determines the minimum allowable margin (0 to 15 dB) below which a system
(MARG)
alarm can occur. Zero disables the alarm. Default setting is 4 dB.
DS1 Frame Formatting
AUTO = system searches DS1 transmission for SF or ESF frame pattern.
(FRMG)
SF = sets system for SF frame formatting.
ESF = sets system for ESF frame formatting.
UNFR = system functions as a transparent bit pipe.
DS1 Line Coding (DS1)
B8ZS = sets system for B8ZS line code.
AMI = sets system for AMI line code.
H2TU-C Equalization
Sets the DSX-1 equalizer to: 0 (0 to 132 ft.), 133 (133 to 265 ft.), 266 (266 to
(EQL)
398 ft.), 399 (399 to 532 ft.), or 533 (533 to 655 ft.).
H2TU-R Line Buildout
Sets the DS1 receive level output toward the Customer Interface to 0 dB,
(RLBO)
-7.5 dB, or -15.0 dB.
Alarm Pattern (ALMP)
Enables an AIS or LOS output at the DS1 ports for LOSW or LOS DS1.
H2TU-R TLOS Loopback
Enables (ENA) or disables (DIS) a TLOS loopback at H2TU-R for LOS at its
(TLOS)
DS1 input (if enabled at the H2TU-R).
Network Loopback
Enables the H2TU-R to transmit an AIS or LOS towards CI for any network
Pattern (NLBP)
loopback.
Power Back Off Network
The power output levels of the H2TU-C network unit toward the customer.
(PBON)
Default (DEF) or enhanced (ENH).
Power Back Off Customer
The power output levels of the H2TU-R customer unit toward the network.
(PBOC)
Default (DEF) or enhanced (ENH).
(a) Default settings are in bold.

(LPBK)
Minor Alarm (ALM)
Enables (ENA) or disables (DIS) the generation of an alarm output when a
system alarm occurs.
Network AIS Pattern
If ALMP is set to AIS, determines which pattern is sent to the network when a
(NAIS)
remote LOS or AIS occurs. CI = AIS-CI sent to the network; AIS = AIS sent to
the network.
Performance Report
OFF = no enhanced Performance Report Messaging, SPRM = Supplemental
Messaging (PRM)
PRM, NPRM = Network PRM, S + N = H2TU-R generates both SPRMs and
NPRMs whenever possible.
RAI to RAI-CI towards
Enables (ENA) or disables (DIS) conversion of a DS1 RAI signal (yellow alarm)
NET (RACI)
received by the H2TU-R to an RAI-CI signal toward the network.
ESF-RAI to SF-RAI
Enables (ENA) or disables (DIS) conversion of an ESF DS1 payload from the
Overwrite (ROVR)
network with an embedded RAI pattern to an SF-RAI pattern toward the CI at
the H2TU-R. CONV option must be set to FCON or ACON.
H2TU-R DS1 Frame
OFF = framing determined by the DS1 FRMG option, ACON = autodetection of
