6 Physical layer
The physical layer (layer 1) is shown in the status screen (Fig. 2) with its own graphical
element (here VDSL). The other elements in the status screen are initially only named. This
is explained in more detail on page 75 (Virtual Lines) and page 96 (Services). The physical
layers for the ADSL and Ethernet interfaces are presented in the same way as for VDSL.
The selection of the VDSL access and the access mode VTU-R are directly adopted in the
status screen. If the defaults are correct, layer 1 (synchronisation on VDSL) can be
established directly on
<Start>
. The most important information such as voltage (U) and
modem states (power down) are displayed in the layer-1 box (blue). To change the VDSL
configuration directly, press
<Edit>
. To change the access type directly in the status screen
(Fig. 2), press the softkey
<Access>
or the key combination
plus
.
See page 98 for tests that can be run via layer 1.
