Remote Loopback Test - Avaya 6424D+M User Manual

Remote Loopback Test

This test requires compatible AT&T equipment at the remote end.
The remote loopback test ensures that no problems with data transmission are occurring in the
data transfer circuit. When you initiate a remote loopback test, data is transmitted from the data
terminal, through your ADM and the network to the data module at the far-end, where it is
looped back to your ADM. A data call must be established before you initiate a remote loopback
test.
To initiate a remote loopback test:
Establish a data call.

Type characters on your terminal keyboard and check to see that they are being echoed as

typed.
If you find no errors, the ADM passed the test.
Rapidly type the Attention sequence (default value is +++) to end the test. Ending the test

data.
