CydTulkasIn your XR700 internet settings you need to enable "DAC" mode. By default its on auto so select the drop down box and select DAC and apply settings. You will then see that the 10G light will start and flash once you have done this.
Then select Monitoring from the options then Statistics and you will see the 10G connection transmitting data and then all your setup and good to go mate.

CydTulkasthe below info is what helped someone else with the same problem.
The XR700 should automatically pick up the 10gb connection, the only thing we had to change for it to be noticed and work if by the following steps.
1. In XR700 got into internet settings;
2. Under "SFP+ Module Dection": Change that from auto to "DAC mode only"
3. Now the 10gb light should be on the XR700 providing you have a AXM765 Transceiver pluged into the 10Gb port.
