Diagnostics

The operator of the remote system now types a sequence of characters.

You do not see any characters on your display while your modem echoes the characters typed by the operator of the remote modem back to the remote computer. The test continues for the time set with register S18. If you do not use register S18, the operator of the remote modem must hang up or call you on another telephone line to tell you when the test is over. To manually end the test, enter command state and type: AT&T0 <Enter>. To end the test and hang up, type: ATH <Enter>.

6.6.7Respond to Remote Digital Loopback

The Respond to Remote Digital Loopback command configures your modem to accept a request from a remote modem to engage in a Remote Digital Loopback or a Remote Digital Loopback with Self-Test. To configure the modem to accept a remote digital loopback request, at the command prompt type: AT&T4 <Enter>.

To configure the modem to ignore a remote digital loopback request, type: AT&T5 <Enter>.

6.6.8Automatically Terminating a Test: Register S18

To configure the modem to terminate a test automatically after a specified time, change the value of register S18. Register S18 determines the duration of a diagnostic test. The factory default setting is 0 seconds, which disables the timer and causes tests to continue indefinitely until you cancel them. You can set this register to terminate tests after 1 to 255 seconds.
