Troubleshooting

his chapter describes troubleshooting procedures you can use in the Tunlikely event you encounter a problem with your modem.

Local Modem Test

The local modem test verifies the local modem’s transmitter, receiver, and connection to the locally attached DTE. This test can be run either by generating a data pattern from the locally attached DTE or by having the modem generate a test pattern.

The following procedure describes how to run the local modem test using a locally attached DTE to generate a data pattern.

1.Using the front panel test switch, place the modem in Analog Loopback mode.

2.Turn on the Request To Send line.

3.Use the locally attached DTE to transmit the data pattern and check for data errors on the Receive Data line.

The following procedure describes how to run the local modem test using the modem test pattern instead of a data pattern originated by the local DTE.

1.Using the front panel test switch, place the modem in Self Test mode.

2.The TM indicator should turn ON. If the indicator turns OFF or flashes, errors are occurring.
