Notes:
1. 'Data set ready' is active in T2 mode, but the
READY indicator is off. (Interface test,
otherwise identical to T2, does not inhibit
the indicator.)
2. The scramble pattern is being transmitted
with input data clamped to mark. Therefore,
the unscrambled data should be a steady mark
and the OPERATE indicator should be on
steady. Test circuits provide a 200 ms off
period if even a single space is received so
that the erroneous space can be observed.
3. The READY indicator blinks on and off.
4. The signal quality meter should read 0 when
the signal indicator is off.
