* In a drop & insert multiplexer, the LOOP light actually indicates the THRU timing. The light blinks
to show that, although this timing setting is the primary one, the multiplexer is presently using
fallback (internal) timing.
6.
Perform one or more channel tests on 4-wire voice channels or full-duplex data channels that
terminate through the DI-A CM-5RB module (if such channels are present), as in the previous
terminal multiplexer test procedure.
7.
When channel tests are complete, take down the loopback on the DI-A CM-5RB module by
removing the patch cord between the T1 OUT EQUIP and T1 IN EQUIP jacks or by de-activating its
equipment loopback (EqLB).
8.
Remove the patch cord or termination plug that was plugged into the T1 IN EQUIP jack of the DI-
B CM-5RB module.
9.
Using a patch cord, loop back the DI-B CM-5RB module by connecting its T1 OUT EQUIP jack with
its T1 IN EQUIP jack (or activate the equipment loopback [EqLB] in the DI-B module). At this
point, both drop and insert CM-5RB modules should be timed by the signal coming from the
terminal multiplexer at Location 1, which has already been tested. Therefore, the fallback timing
“trick” is not needed to test the DI-B CM-5RB module.
10.
Once the DI-B module is looped, verify that the indicator lights are responding (Table 6-8).
11.
With the DI-B module looped, perform all desired local loopback tests on the transmit/receive
channel modules that are set up to terminate circuits coming in via the DI-B module. These tests
might include loss measurements on voice and program channels, bit error tests on data channels,
and so on.
12.
Remove the loopback of the DI-B CM-5RB module by removing the patch cord or deactivating the
equipment loopback.
13.
At this point you can perform end-to-end tests on channels established between any two locations
that have already been tested. The individual channel module manuals give recommended test
procedures.
