SELT Start Click SELT Start to start a single-end loop test.
Note: Connect the Telco-50 connector to the VDSL Line port, but the selected DSL port must
have an open loop. There cannot be a DSL device, phone, fax machine or other device
connected to the subscriber’s end of the VDSL line.
The SELT takes at least fifteen seconds. To check the status of a SELT or look at the last SELT
result of a port, select the port number from the Port drop-down list box and click Show
Status. The results tell you what gauge of telephone wire is connected to the port and the
approximate length of the line.
Calibrate Click Calibrate to reset the SELT parameters on the Switch to achieve high SELT accuracy.
Note: Make sure you disconnect the Telco-50 connector from the VDSL Line port before you
do calibration.
Loop Type This field displays what gauge of telephone wire is connected to the port.
Loop length This field displays the distance from the Switch to the subscriber’s location.
Reflection This field displays the index number of each reflection in a test. Only the first 4 reflection
results are displayed.
When you perform a SELT, the Switch sends a wideband signal and calculates the loop
information from the signal echoes (reflections).
Note: Only the reflection from the end of a line indicates proper information for your reference.
Delay This field displays the estimated delays the Switch calculates from each reflection.
Error This field displays the estimated errors the Switch calculates from each reflection.
Atn@180kHz This field displays the estimated attenuation the Switch calculates for the band at 180kHz on
the line.
Atn@300kHz This field displays the estimated attenuation the Switch calculates for the band at 300kHz on
the line.
FitError This field displays an indicator of the error in the attenuation fields.
Termination This field displays the phase jump at the line termination. A value of 0 indicates a shortcut
termination. A value of 1 indicates an open termination.
