Figure 13. Remote Digital Loop

To perform an RDL test, follow these steps:

1.Activate the RDL by moving the front panel toggle switch DOWN to remote.

2.Perform a bit error test (BERT) using the internal V.52 generator (as described in section “BIT Error Rate (V.52) Diagnostics” on page 142), or using a seperate BER Tester. If the BER test indicates a fault, and the Local Line Loopback test was successful for both Model 3086s, you may have a problem with the twisted pair line between the modems. You should then check the twisted pair line for proper connections and continuity.

T1/E1 Diagnostics

The 3086/K offers two diagnostics loops for the T1/E1 interface: Network (line) loopback, and local loop, These tests can be activated via the CLI/Web management menus

Network Loop

The Network (line) Loopback applies to the T1/E1 interface data traffic; it does not affect traffic from the Ethernet port. The network Loop test verifies the operation of the T1/E1interface of the local unit and the T1/ E1 line. Any data received by the 3086 T1/E1 interface in this test mode will be echoed (returned) to the orig- inating device. This test is useful when the device connected to the 3086’s T1/E1 interface is unable to send loop codes to the local 3086’s T1/E1 CSU/DSU interface.
