LA
AND
LB
(Not applicable in V.35 mode.)
Displays the status of the loopback circuit A and B signals. LA and
LB are asserted by the DTE to enable a loopback on the DCE and
its associated data communications channel. Four possible loop-
back options are available:
TA
Displays the status of the data Terminal equipment Available signal.
TA will be asserted by the DTE (independently of CA) when the
DTE is prepared to both send and receive data to and from the
DCE. Valid data transmission should not commence until CA has
also been asserted by the DCE. If the data communications channel
requires a keep alive data pattern when the DTE is disconnected,
then the DCE shall supply this pattern while TA is deasserted.
When using the NxT1 HSSI Module (1200346L2 only) in V.35
mode, TA displays the status of the Request to Send (RTS) signal.
When RTS is active in a V.35 configuration, Clear to Send (CTS) is
also active.
