To apply the test signal toward the equipment, type

E

.

Test from Far End

should be

Y

if you want the far-end

CSU to send the test signal or

N

if you wish the near-end CSU

to send the test signal. In either case, the CSU must be an
NCC 2020, CCC 1020, or TAC.

Press

to accept the selected values. The test begins when

you type

Y

at the warning prompt, whereupon the test signal is

applied in the chosen direction and any errors detected by the
NCC (CCC) or TAC are counted and recorded.

After the test begins, the CSU Status results will be displayed for
every test pattern option, as in the screen below.

6. If you are not using a loopback to return the test signal to the

transmitting CSU, repeat Steps 1 through 4 for the second CSU (far
end), using the same test pattern. After both CSUs are transmitting,
synchronize both CSUs by repeating Steps 1 through 4 for the first
CSU. Because the initial and ending conditions are not in synch for
both transmitters, the final error count is disregarded.

7. Use

the

Abort Test in Progress

option if you wish to

abort a test in progress; however, the CSU sending the test pattern
must be near-end. Select the

Abort Test in Progress

option of the Select CSU Test Activity screen. Then, select the near
or far end.
