T1/E1 port test modes
The 3096RC offers a number of diagnostics tools to test operation and performance of the T1/E1 ports and
line. Diagnostics include DSX1 payload loop and DSX1 line loop.
DSX1 payload loop (dsx1PayloadLoop)
When activated, the received signal at the selected T1/E1 port, will be looped through the 3096RC (see
figure 59
). Typically the received signal is looped back for retransmission after it has passed through the device’s
framing function (framing is terminated and then regenerated).
Figure 59. Payload loopback
To activate payload loop, do the following:
1. Click on the
Modify Configuration
link of the T1/E1 port to be placed under test
2. Locate the
Loopback Configuration
drop down menu
3. Select
Payload Loop
and click on the
Submit Query
button on the right.
To deactivate payload loop, set the
Loopback Configuration
drop down menu to
NoLoop
.
DSX1 line loop (dsxLineLoop)
When activated, data received at the selected T1/E1 port, is looped back to the originating device (see
figure 60
). Data is looped at the T1/E1 port.
