The power cut back option doesn't do anything as far as I know.

Oh DMT v7.13 is out btw

I'm still not sure why you would want to switch trellis off, trawling through the forums, most people who post their router stats seem have it switched on, although I've seen a couple with it off. It therefore appears to be better to leave it on, why you would want it switched off is a bit of a mystery.

I wondered if power cut back might be something to do with allowing the router to reduce the power output, therefore if its unticked it will be permanently be at full signal output - I couldn't think of anything else it might be.

Thats the 4th one in 6 days

Just discovered if I sync with a 13db margin I get a hugely reduced CRC/HEC error rate, any margin above or below that sends the errors shooting up again, wonder if this means there is a SNR 'sweet spot' for every line? Or maybe it's just a random event, dunno.

Update: bah, was a random event methinks..CRC errors back in force as usual

DMT Modem Tool v7.14 is out

DMT v7.14

added: ability to visualize BITSWAPPING during SNR monitoring/observation

fixed: Bug in SNR monitoring (SNR-tones without bits were measured/included in measurement)

Ta...

Are you using it on your 510v4 banger?

Might just have to dust mine down if you are haha.

I am indeed, the auto SNR monitor is particularly useful

How does it perfrom banger?

I lose about 4-5db SNR if I drop from my DG834PN to ST510v4............which leaves it at about 18db.

Is it worth me upgrading to the 3.x.x. software or can I leave it at 2.7?

I'm running DMT Tool 7.14 and it won't draw the graphs for SNR Noise & Bit Loading Values:(

Where can I get 7.09 from?
