READSL etc) and maintenance. It provides xDSL test,
PPPoE/PPPoA dial test, DMM test, Modem emulation,
ping test ,Data upload and so on.

The tester adopts LCD display and menu operation

which can display the test results directly and
improve the xDSL broadband service greatly. It’s the
best choice for the field operators of installation and
maintenance.

PPPoE/PPPoA Dial and WAN/LAN Ping
You can fulfill the function of Perform PPPoE /PPPoA dialing to user twisted-pair
(WAN port) through fixed PPPoE/PPPoA test account. After successful dialing, it
could get this terminal IP, opposite terminal IP, chiefly DNS server IP and
subordinate IP address.

Modem Parameters Setting

Operator can set current modem standard and choose ADSL2Plus Auto or Multi
mode. What is more, operator can also revise PPPoE properties (PAP/CHAP), user
name and password through background management software.

Modem Emulation
ST332B can emulate the user Modem completely. Operators can take ST332B as
user’s modem, and dial to logon Internet to test if there is any problem of the
Modem.

DMM Test
ST332B can test such items as follows:
AC Voltage: 0 to 400 V;
DC Voltage: 0 to 290 V;
Capacitance:0 to 1000nF,
Loop Resistance: 0 to 20KΩ;
PING test
™ It can perform the WAN PING Test and LAN PING Test. LAN
PING Test can judge if the connection with IP addresses
success or not and also confirm LAN work OK or not. WAN
PING test can Ping website addresses directly toward Local
WAN, and check the connectivity of WAN Line.

Data upload
™ Users can upload data to PC trough RS232 port, which is
convenient for users to save and manage the data.

1. Modem Initialization
Firstly the tester will initiate the Modem. Normally it will be successful in
initializing and enter the menu display. Like the picture 2. If the initializing
is failed the Modem will retry it. And if it still can not initialize Modem it will
display “Failed. Enter menu?” If you press Enter key to enter the system
main operation menu the only thing you could do now is View Data.

The tester has 7 groups VPI/VCI values. Only when tested line’s
VPI/VCI is same as any one of the 7 groups you could perform
PPPoE/PPPoA dialing. The system will succeed in dialing if you
enter correct username, password and authorization method. And
now the PPPoE/PPPoA LED will be shinning.
5. Modem Emulation

1. When ST332B is in operation, it could be used as xDSL

Modem. And user could make dialing or logon the
Internet by ST332B to see if there is any fault in user
Modem.

2. During Modem emulation the ST332B works under

RFC1483 Bridge mode .

3. Please confirm the dialing is in “Stop” state before you

make dialing or logon Internet. If not, please revise it at
first.
