Attribute 

Value 

Retrain Disable 

– 

disables full retrain capability 

Enable – enables full retrain capability 

Detect Noise 

Enables/disables noise detection (only valid for 
Annex AHS) 

Capability 

This parameter controls whether the CPE will 
attempt to startup using alternate standards if 
the CO does not support G.Span (High Speed 
(HS)). 
The CPE has the ability to connect in either 
ADSL Annex A or G.Span. This is provided by 
the ADSL/Annex A /G.Span Auto Detect 
feature. The standard used depends on the 
capability of the CO. 
Using Auto Detect, startup at the CPE is first 
attempted in Annex A. The CO is the master 
and the CPE is the slave. If the result of 
handshake with the CO is G.Span (HS), then 
the CPE will switch to G.Span. If the CO does 
not support G.Span, then the resultant 
connection will be ADSL Annex A. 
This parameter must be set to AHS to configure 
the modem for A & HS ‘two-speed’ Auto Detect. 
For Auto Detect, all other parameters should be 
set to the Annex A profile. If UTOPIA Level 2 
framing is set (using the UtopiaInterface 
parameter), ensure that the UTOPIA address is 
set (using the PhysicalPort parameter) as there 
is no default value. If the result of handshake 
with the CO is G.Span (HS), then the CPE will 
switch to G.Span and the appropriate CPE 
parameters will be automatically re-configured 
by the DSP for G.Span operation. 
A: Annex A capable 
AHS: Annex A or High Speed capable  
Disable: the device does not send any 
standards capability information to the CO. 

Coding Gain 

The gain due to trellis/RS coding. Its value 
ranges from 0-7 dB. 

Auto

 automatically selects 

the coding gain. 

Framer Type 

Value can be set to Type 0 – 3 or Type3ET. To 
enable DataBoost set FramerType to Type3ET 

Dying Gasp 

Enables/disables dying gasp. 

Defaults 

Sets the recommended default parameters for a 
given Standard. 

Reset Defaults 

Reset device to use default port configuration
