Selects the test command. Test commands must be initiated in the command mode with asynchronous operation in the Direct mode selected (&Q0) at a speed of less than 14400 or 28800 (28800 version only).
A telco line connection must be established prior to initiating digital loopback tests. If these conditions are not met, the modem issues the ERROR result code. If local analog loopback is initiated while the modem is connected, the modem disconnects before performing the test.
An initiated test is active for a period of time specified by register S18 (test timer) before returning to the command mode. If S18 is zero, the test aborts when the user issues the &T0 command.
Examples
AT&T0 | End test in progress. The escape sequence (+++) |
| must be issued to return the modem to the |
| command mode prior to sending this command. |
| Subsequent issuing of the O command while in the |
| command mode will cause the local and remote |
| modems to return to normal data mode operation if |
| the interrupted test was digital loopback. |
AT&T1 | Initiates local analog loopback. This test verifies the |
| working condition of the path between the local |
| communications software and the local modem. The |
| characters received from the communications |
| software are looped back by the modem. |
AT&T3 | Initiates remote digital loopback locally. The |
| characters received from the remote modem are |
| looped back to the remote modem by the local |
| modem. This test verifies the working condition of |
| the path from a remote modem, through a local |
| modem, and back to the remote modem. |
AT&T4 | Allows the modem to respond to a request from a |
| remote modem for a remote digital loopback test. |
AT&T5 | Prohibits the modem from granting a request from a |
| remote modem for a digital loopback test. |
