>T1X STATUS/CONFIGURATION/LOOPBACK > LOOP/NORMAL STATE > LINK [REMOTE]

Activates a loopback at the remote TRACER 4106/4206 T1 framer towards the local end of the wireless link (see Figure 10). Use the remote LINK loopback to loop the data transmitted from the local end of the link across the radio link to the local end of the link. This loopback tests the integrity of the radio link and all the associated digital and RF hardware.

>T1X STATUS/CONFIGURATION/LOOPBACK > LOOP/NORMAL STATE > LINE [LOCAL]

Activates a loopback at the local TRACER 4106/4206 T1 framer towards the locally connected T1 equipment (see Figure 11). Use the local LINE loopback to test data path integrity from the local TRACER 4106/4206 unit to the connected T1 equipment.

>T1X STATUS/CONFIGURATION/LOOPBACK > LOOP/NORMAL STATE > LINE [REMOTE]

Activates a loopback at the remote TRACER 4106/4206 T1 framer towards the connected T1 equipment at the remote end of the link (see Figure 12). Use the remote LINE loopback to test data path integrity from the remote TRACER 4106/4206 unit to the T1 equipment connected at the remote end of the link.
