3.LOOPBACK ACTIVATION/DEACTIVATION
This section describes loopback activation and deactivation methods for the ADTRAN Fractional T1 system. Loopback activation and deactivation is controlled with the
Both the FNID and the FT1 DP have a
The FNID and FT1 DP (when available) have a craft interface located on the front panel of the device. The craft interface allows access to the FT1 device through an
FT1 DP, FT1 Repeater, and FNID network loopbacks can be activated by the DDS latching loopback sequence. The latching loopback sequence is detected in the primary DS0 of the FT1 system. When the loopback is activated on the device, the
whole FT1 bandwidth is looped. The FT1 DP, FT1 Repeater, and FNID each
Latching loopbacks for the FT1 system are activated by transmitting the following latching loopback sequence in the primary DS0 of the FT1 system:
A.Minimum of 35 transition in progress (TIP) bytes (N0111010).
B. Minimum of 35 loopback select code (LSC) bytes as defined in Table I.
C. Minimum of 100 loopback enable (LBE) bytes (N1010110).
D.Minimum of 35 all 1s bytes (S1111111), plus a minimum of 100 LBE bytes.
E. Minimum of 32 far end voice (FEV) bytes (N1011010).

Latching loopbacks for the FT1 system are deactivated by transmitting the following latching loopback sequence in the primary DS0 of the FT1 system:
Minimum of 35 TIP bytes (N0111010).
4. LOOPUP STATE
In the loopup state, the active FT1 loopback will provide a continuous loop for the FT1 bandwidth. The data flow is continuously monitored for the loop deactivation commands to deactivate the loopbacks. Also, a
