Also, contacts DR2 are opened to remove a short circuit from a resistor 83 in the circuit of the re ceiver 72 so that the dialing tone energy portion cou pled back through hybrid network 71 is at an appropri ately low level so that it does not disturb the user. 10 Assuming ?rst that the RS serial data coupling mode, e.

The LOCAL option is useful for checking operation of the set. Three user-selectable options described up to this point may seem to overlap, but they serve discrete func tions. These are the RS/CL, FD/HD, and RM/LOC options.
