Test/Verify (Loop Start)
Verify far-end (CO) circuits by using a standard telephone set in place
of the Loop Start trunk circuit.
Verify near-end (PBX Loop Start) circuits by connecting to a local PBX
ONS circuit.
Check for appropriate voltages on Tip-Ring in each call state.
During off-hook condition, 18 mA DC minimum should be drawn from
the CO (typical 25-40 mA).
Some Key/PBX systems may be polarity sensitive; reverse Tip-Ring to
verify.
