The PairGain

 Line Unit HLU-388 List 5A is the Central Office (CO) side 

of a repeaterless, T1 transmission system. When used in conjunction with a HiGain 
Remote Unit (HRU), the system provides 1.544 Mbps transmission on two 
unconditioned copper pairs over the full Carrier Service Area (CSA) range. The CSA 
includes loops up to 12,000 feet of 24 (American Wire Gauge) AWG or 9,000 feet of 
26 AWG wire, including bridged taps. This line unit can be used in applications with 
or without HiGain Doubler Units (HDUs).

NSTALLATION

To ensure proper installation of the HLU-388 List 5A:

1

Lift up the entire front panel and align the HLU-388 List 5A with the shelf rails.

2

Slide the unit in and press the front panel down to secure.

EQUENCE

When the HLU powers up, the four-character display illuminates and reports status 
messages. 

If the HLU is not communicating with the next span device, the following occurs:

1

Alarm and diagnostic messages display (see the Front Panel Alarm Messages and 
Front Panel Diagnostic Messages tables inside), followed by the SELF TEST 
message.

2

The Status LED turns yellow, indicating it has entered self-test mode.

If the HLU is communicating with the next span device, the following occurs:

1

The Status LED flashes red while acquiring each device in the system, and turns 
a steady green when the entire system is operating without any alarms.

2

The four-character display reports margin (signal-to-noise ratio) readings and 
insertion loss.

3

If the status LED is not solid green, the display reports alarm conditions (see the 
Front Panel Alarm Messages table inside).

P

ROVISIONING

1

Access the Maintenance Terminal screens by pressing 

 several times.

a

Set the date and time (select Set Clock from the Main Menu). 

b

Set the circuit IDs (select View System Inventory).

2

Access the Systems Settings selection on the Main Menu to change the default 
settings of any system parameters. 

3

Access the View Troubleshooting screen to view a graphical analysis of any 
potential system problems.

4

When the HLU is successfully installed and provisioned, clear Span Status, 
Performance Data, Performance History, and Alarm History screens to ensure 
accurate data and alarm reporting.
