4. PROVISIONING
The SHDSL T1/E1 NTU menus are accessed via the
DB-9 front panel female connector which supports
VT100 emulation by PC based application programs or
by a virtual terminal session over the EOC.
The parameters of the VT100 terminal should be set as
follows:
• 9600 Baud
• No parity
• 8 Data bits
• 1 Stop bits
• No Flow Control
Once these steps have been completed, the following
options will appear in the SHDSL T1/E1 NTU Main
Menu:
1. Unit Information
2. Provisioning
3. Status
4. Test
5. Performance History
Windows HyperTerminal
Windows HyperTerminal can be used as a VT100
terminal emulation program. Open HyperTerminal by
selecting
Programs/Accessories/HyperTerminal
. Refer
to the
Help
section of HyperTerminal for additional
information.

The menu tree in
Figure 3
illustrates the path to every
provisioning, performance, and test access point in the
SHDSL T1/E1 menu system.
Table 4
lists the complete set of configurable options
with settings and factory default values.
NOTE
When the NTU is in T1 mode, all related E1
options will be non-applicable. A non-appli-
cable option setting is still changeable, but will
not take affect until the option become appli-
cable.
