62.1 FXS Line Testing
You can test FXS telephone lines that are connected to the device's FXS ports. The test is
done per FXS port and FXS country coefficient type - USA (70) or TBR21 (66). The output
of the test displays various line statuses and electrical line measurements. Some of the
supported FXS status and line measurements include:

Hazardous Potential Tests (HPT) - hazardous AC or DC voltage is present on the tip
and ring or both.

Foreign Electromotive Force Tests (FEMT) - foreign voltage is present on the tip, ring
or both

Resistive Fault Tests (RFT) - tip or ring is shorted to ground, or they are shorted to
each other

Receiver Off-hook Tests (ROH) - one or more phones are off hook on phone line
during test.

Ringer Impedance Tests (RIT)

AC/DC line voltage

AC/DC line current

Line resistance

Line capacity

Hook status (on or off)

Message Waiting Indication (MWI) status (on or off)

Ring status (on or off)

Reversal polarity status (on or off)
The FXS line test is currently supported only through CLI.
Note: FXS line testing is supported only by the FXS module type that supports
outdoor FXS cabling.
 To run the FXS line test:
1. Access the VoIP command set:
# configure voip
2. Access the FXS interface command set:
(config-voip)# interface fxs-fxo
3. Type the following command:
(fxs-fxo)# fxs-line-testing < Module/Port > {66|70}
For example, to test FXS port 4 on FXS module 1 with coefficient type USA:
(fxs-fxo)# fxs-line-testing 1/4 70
