Starting a Repeater Loopback

The Repeater Loopback command (RLB) loops the signal being sent to the
network back to the DTE Drop/Insert (DSX-1) and data ports. The signal is looped
back as close to the network interface as possible (after it has passed through the
framing circuitry of the DSU/CSU). Framing CRCs and BPVs are corrected.

Procedure

To perform a Repeater loopback:

1. From the top-level menu screen, select Test.

2. From the Test screen, select Lpbk.

3. From the Loopback screen, press the

key until the RLB selection appears

on the screen.

4. Select RLB.

Test Started

appears on Line 2. If a Repeater loopback is already in

progress, the

Already Active

message appears. If an invalid combination

of loopbacks is in progress, the error message

Invld Test Combo

appears

(see

Table 4-8, Valid Loopback Combinations

, for valid loopback test

combinations).
