Troubleshooting using a test set and loopback

If the LED indicators show that REMs is not operating, use a testset (such
as the FIREBERD, T-BERD, or Verilink’s TS2000).

If a testset is not available, you can apply a known good T1 D4/ESF
signal to the DTE input of the FBR.

Put the near-end side of a REMS circuit into loopback in a setup
described in Figure 8 -2, REMS Troubleshooting Using a Testset
Loopback Setup
.

REMS Troubleshooting Using a Testset Loopback Setup

The testset takes the place of the MUX. The encryptor (KG) is in the
setup. The near-end BRC is looped back.

1.

Configure the near-end side of a REMS circuit as the master node.
(Set the FBR to 40, 64 and the BRC to 40.)

2.

Put the testset on loop timing.

3.

Disconnect the re-sync connection from the FBR to the encryptor, if
it was previously connected.

4.

Manually re-sync the KG.

Encryptor re-sync connections are usually made to the Relay Alarm
contacts on the back of the FBR. See Chapter 5, Connecting REMS
components
, fo
r procedure to provide re-sync to the encryptor.

The results of this procedure should be:

a. The EQ LED on the FBR NCC 2020 should go Green.
