•
Remote BI Remote electrical interface looped back. Remote signals looped back
on the fiber side as well. In a Bi-directional Loopback (Local BI and
Remote BI), data is looped back in both directions, assuring a stricter
standard of error checking.
•
Local Both Both local and remote modems have their electrical interface looped
back.
•
Clear All This clears all the loopbacks on the local and remote units. This
function must be used before a new loopback is selected.
2. Loopback Control Mode: Use the Space Bar to toggle through Software and Hardware
options
•
Software Software loopback tests are more comprehensive than hardware
tests. Hardware loopback tests are not available on the rackmount
modem.
When this mode is selected, the Loopback switch on a
standalone modem has no effect on the loopback mode .
•
Hardware Hardware options are only available on the standalone modem, and
are set with a switch on the modem front panel. Software loopback
options will override hardware options. On the standalone modem,
Loopback is enabled or disabled via the loopback switch on the front
panel. Once in Software Mode, you must enable or disable
Loopbacks from the Loopback screen via the VT100 terminal or
SNMP screen.
Note: All modems in the link should be set to the same Loopback Control Mode.
3.
Electrical Line Relay: Toggles through Open and Closed. This function is used to allow
testing the link that failed in a redundant configuration. If problems
occur in a redundant modem link, you can determine which modem
or cable is failing by doing the following:
¾
Disconnect the Y cables at local and remote ends
¾
Set the Electric Line Relay to Closed
¾
Perform an End to End Bit Error Rate Test
4.
BERT Reset: Press Enter to reset the timer.
Note: Prior to changing a loopback selection, Clear All must be performed.
