V.35 interface modem of any make, any company is most often used as slave modems
and modems with G703 interface are used as master modems.
3. Line A and Line B: On healthy conditions these two LEDs should be off. If the
LEDs are red, the connectivity between the master modem and the slave modem
is broken, that means the local lead (last mile copper) is faulty.
4. Test: Test LED glows when loop is activated from the modem.
5. ALM (Alarm): This LED glows when the line is disturbed. Even a minor
disturbance can turn this LED on. This LED goes off when the alarm buffers are
cleared and has to be done manually.
1. LOC (Local): This LED glows when the channel i.e., the connectivity after the
master modem is either disconnected or failed.
2. REM (Remote): This LED glows along with Line A and Line B if the local lead
is failed.
3. Line A and Line B: On healthy conditions these two LEDs should be off. If the
LEDs are red, the connectivity between the master modem and the slave modem
is broken, that means the local lead (last mile copper) is faulty
4. Test: Test LED glows when loop is activated from the modem.
Both ASM 20 and ASM 31 modems are used for 64 Kbps circuits. The functions of
both the modems are same. The only difference is ASM 20 supports 4 wire local lead
and ASM 31 supports 2 wire local lead.
4. DCD: In healthy conditions DCD should be glowing. If not the last mile is faulty
5. ERR (Error): Error LED is for testing errors in the last mile. To test errors in the
line the buttons REM and PATT are to be pressed simultaneously. If ERR LED
glows red, there are errors in the line, if not the line is clean.
6. TST (Test): Test LED glows when loop is activated from the modem.
ASCOM 2048A
1. Urgent: If Urgent LED glows, the local lead is faulty. At some cases urgent LED
glows even when the channel is faulty, if the modem is configured accordingly.
3. Test: Test LED glows when loop is active from the modem.
Tainet XSTREAM
1. Line: Line LED should be green. If red the local lead is faulty
2. User: User LED should be green. If red the channel is faulty
TELLABS STU Modems (Used for MTNL MLDN
Circuits)
1. 103: 103 LED is equivalent to TD as on RAD modem i.e., it’s related to the
router
2. 104: 104 LED is equivalent to RD and is related to the channel. If 104 is off
the fault is in the channel
3. 105: 105 LED is equivalent to RTS and is similar to the router.
4. 106: Same as 105
5. 109: 109 LED is equivalent to DCD and related to the last mile. If 109 is off
the last mile is faulty
6. 142: 142 is equivalent to test. 142 glows if loop back is on.
7. LA: LA glows red if the local lead is faulty.
RAD ASMi 52
1. Data: Data is related to the connectivity between the router and the modem. Data
LED should be green and stable.
2. Sync: Sync LED refers to the connectivity between the master modem and slave
modem. Sync LED should be green and stable. If not the last mile is faulty.
3. Line 1: Line 1 LED should be green. If not the last mile is faulty.
4. Test: Test glows when loop is active from the modem.
