4)RUN SELFTEST, Submenu of 4)TEST

Use this menu selection to execute an internal self test. This is the same self test that is performed automatically at power-up. The results of the self tests are displayed in the LCD (see Figure 3-21). Upon invoking the command, the LCD displays INITIALIZING and test failures are displayed in the LCD window.

Figure 3-21. Self Test Result Screen

If a failure is detected, note the failure prior to contacting ADTRAN technical support.

The execution of a self test disrupts normal data flow and prevents remote communication until the self test is completed (approximately five seconds).
