Loopback testing with a smart jack

NOTE:

If you have a G700 Media Gateway, substitute XXXVS for UUCSS in the following commands, where XXX is the administered number of the G700 (for example, 002), and VS is the slot number on the G700 of the Media Module (for example, V3). The V is not a variable and needs to be included in the commands exactly where shown. A sample address for a DS1 circuit pack on a G700 Media Gateway might look like this: 002V3.

3.Once you are fairly certain that the test is reporting no errors (after at least 1 error-free minute), confirm that the 3-in-24 pattern error detector is operating. Enter test ds1-loopUUCSS inject-single-bit-error, where UU is the cabinet number, C is the carrier letter, and SS is the slot number of the DS1 board.

4.Display the bit error count again. At the management terminal, enter list meas ds1 sum UUCSS, where UU is the cabinet number, C is the carrier letter, and SS is the slot number of the DS1 board.
