The analog loopback test sends data through the router's chipset and back to the serial bus.
4. Click Run Loopback Test.
The message Executed OK indicates a successful test. If the test should fail, wait a few
minutes (the router could be busy) and try again. If it fails again, contact Installer Support.
Use a telephone handset to test the VADB phone line.
1. Connect a phone handset to the phone line that will be used for the VADB link.
2. Dial a known phone number to make sure the phone line is active.
To support VADB, connect the HN9500 to a telephone line jack as follows:
1. Connect one end of an RJ-11 telephone cable to the telephone line port on the back of the
HN9500 satellite router.
Note: The telephone line port is indicated by a telephone icon:
2. Connect the other end of the cable to the phone line jack or a splitter (if the HN9500 needs
to share the phone line with other devices).
The completed connection is shown in
page 61.
