Starting a Data Terminal Loopback

The Data Terminal Loopback command (DTLB) loops
the data received from the selected port, for all DS0
channels allocated to the port, back out of the port. This
loopback occurs after the data passes through the port
circuitry but before it reaches the E1 framer.
To perform a Data Terminal loopback,
1. Press F2 to select Test from the top-level menu
screen.
2. From the Test screen, press F2 to select Lpbk.
