5.4Local Analog Loopback Test (Synchronous Mode)
To initiate the Local Analog Loopback Test, with the modem in Synchronous mode:
1.Enter AT&M1U. This first switches your modem from asynchronous to synchronous mode, and places it into the Analog Loopback/Originate mode. The modem is now out of the Command mode and in the pseudo
2.Once you receive a connect message (if responses are enabled), enter data from your keyboard. For this test, typing multiple upper case "U" characters is a good way to send an alternating test pattern of ones and zeros.
3.For a more complete test, you should also test the modem in Answer mode. To do this, pull out and then reinsert modem card in rack cage. Then type AT&M1U1 and hit ENTER to place the modem in Analog Loopback mode, in the Answer mode. Then repeat step 2.
