Local Analog Loopback Test/V.54 Loop 3
In this test, data from your computer or terminal is sent to your modem's

converted into digital form and then received back at your monitor for

characters is a good way to send an alternating test pattern of ones and
zeros.
4. For a more complete test, you should also test the modem in Answer
mode. To do this, you must “escape” from Originate mode by entering
an Escape Sequence (+++) . Then type AT&T1 and hit ENTER to place

step 3.
5. Your modem passes this test if the data entered from your keyboard are
