and the Test LEDs are illuminated. Test failures
are displayed on the terminal.
The self-test consists of the following:
A test pattern is sent from the controller through a loopback
on all other boards and is checked on the controller. This
verifies the data path, clocks, and control signals.
If a failure is detected, note the failure number prior to
contacting ADTRAN Technical Support.
The execution of the self-test will disrupt normal data flow
and prevent remote communication until the self-test is
completed.
Port Tests
The P

menu is used to activate testing of specific
data ports. It controls the activation of loopbacks and the
initiation of data test patterns. Test results are displayed on
