Appendix C - Step-by-Step Commissioning Procedures
CO Configuration - for Link Verification
This procedure sets up the ML CO for communication with the ML CPE.
1. Open a local session to the MetaASSIST View (see Craft Connection to the ML (on
page 2-3)).
2. Verify that there are no HWFLT or PROGFLT alarms on the ML700 -O (CO). Any other
alarms are not relevant at this point.
3. In the HSLs pane (on page 4-20) select the desired HSL, click on Configure and set the
required configuration.
For VDSL2 only if installed at the cabinet:
Set the Exchange Side Electrical Length (ESEL) for VDSL2 if installed at the
cabinet.
For link with BBA (Broadband accelerator):
Set the Broadband Accelerator Support to Checked.
4. All MLPs are enabled by default. To prevent alarms on unused MLP the ports should be
disabled. To disable the unused MLPs uncheck the MLPs in the MLPs configuration
pane (on page 4-16).
5. Prior to calibrating the HSL (on page 4-21), verify that the defined Rate, (on page 6-4)
Spectral (on page 6-7) and Quality (on page 6-23) profiles meet your needs and that the
template is configured with the appropriate profiles (on page 6-31). Create new profiles
and template if necessary.
On the Spectral Profiles pane you may use Load DMT SMODEs for a country of
choice. At the end of the process, check available or create new template, using available
profiles. For more details see Modem Profiles Management Model (on page 6-1).
6. Calibrate the HSL by choosing the appropriate Profile template.
Note: CO modems will not achieve synchronization until CPE installation is complete.
