Setting the Loopback Timeout
The loopback timeout determines the amount of time before a loopback clears
automatically. To set a loopback timeout:

TIMEOUT displays.

VIEWING SYSTEM INFORMATION
Through the LCD menu you can view the following product information
(with the option name in parentheses):
• firmware version and PROM checksum (S/W REV and S/W CKSUM)
• hardware configuration information (H/W CONFIG)
• local unit ID (LOCAL UNIT ID)
• remote unit ID (REMOTE UNIT ID)
• remote interface card type (REMOTE I/F)
• circuit ID (CIRCUIT ID)
You cannot change any of this information through the LCD. Use an ASCII
terminal to set the local and remote unit IDs, and the circuit ID. See “Entering
System Information” on page 5-17.
If you set the loopback timeout to NONE, loopbacks run until
you clear them manually or turn the unit off.
