DataComm V.34 PL Modem

Installation and Operation

Transmit Level

It is possible in private line operation for the transmit levels of the modems to be either too low or 
too high. When that is the case the connection usually will not be dependable and will be filled with 
errors. To correct such situations, the transmit level of the DataComm V.34 PL for private line 
operation can be configured in 1 dBm increments between 0 dBm and -15 dBm. This selection can 
be done from the front panel by entering 

tL

 then 0 to 15. -9dBm is the default.

Automatic and Manual Handshaking

The modems can be put into private line idle via the front panel 

RST

 button. From idle, the 

RST

 

button can be used to initiate a new connection. Once told to handshake, the modems will 
continuously try to complete a handshake.

When communicating with a different modem in private line operations, the following steps outline 
how to configure the modems:

1. Configure both modems for the type of communications they are intended to perform.

2. Configure the DataComm V.34 PL modem as the Originate modem, selecting 

FAC0, FAC2

.

3. Again, use the 

RST

 button to permanently store the current configurations for both modems.

Testing the Modem

Chapter 6 describes basic diagnostics. 

Diagnostics

Note

It is recommended that you permanently store the above settings by pressing the 

RST

 front 

panel button. The modems are now ready for private line communications.

Note

When the modem is in synchronous mode, you must press the front panel 

RST

 

button to enter 

idle.

Note

You can perform private line "back-to-back" testing with the supplied 8-pin cable, but only in 
two-wire mode with the transmit level set to -15 dBm. For back-to-back testing in four-wire 
mode, use GDC cable P/N 024H207-XXX.

The DataComm V.34 PL allows you to perform the diagnostics 
described below. If you attempt to start a test which cannot be run (e.g., 
End-to-End Self-Test when the local modem is not connected to another 
modem), the modem displays nA (not applicable).
