Setting up an SHDSL n-wire connection
The ARGUS is connected directly to the SHDSL 4-wire access via the SHDSL 4-wire
connection cable or a patch cable. In the case of an SHDSL 6-wire or 8-wire access, the
ARGUS may only be connected to the SHDSL access using a patch cable. The ARGUS
will set up an SHDSL connection and determine all of the relevant SHDSL connection
parameters for two (three or four) wire pairs (Line 1 and Line 2 or where appropriate Line 3
and Line 4). The ARGUS displays the connection parameters and saves them after the
connection is cleared down if desired. Sketch of the access (see page 120).
Setting the SHDSL n-wire interface (see page 106)
Setting the Access mode, see page 106.
The example shows an SHDSL 4-wire interface in the EFM access mode and in SHDSL
mode STU-R. In the case of a 6-wire or 8-wire access, all of the steps are identical with the
exception of the selection of the interface:
ARGUS – State display
The ARGUS will use the default (preset)
profile to setup the SHDSL connection (in
this example, Profile 1).
The SHDSL test is not yet started:
The next step is the initialization.
Afterwards, the ARGUS will synchronize
with the DSLAM (the “Sync / L1” LED will
flash).
The ARGUS will show the current status
of Lines 1 and 2 (in this example L1:
Discovery finished and L2: Startup).
In the event that there are
synchronisation problems, compare the
SHDSL settings in the profile with the
corresponding settings of the remote end.

Display the profile, see
page 121.
The ARGUS displays the states
as they are stepped through, the
data rate and the voltage on both
lines.
