Setting Port and Clock Modes
168 Interphase Corporation
When this mode is selected, the text message portion of the
Line Test main dialog box displays the following
synchronization results:
Operational Mode
After a test has completed, you must return the port used for
testing to Operational mode so that it can handle incoming and
outgoing communications.
To return the port to Operational mode, select Operational
mode on the Port Test Configuration dialog box (shown in
Figure D-2 on page 165).
Before closing the Line Test utility, you are requested to
restore each port in testing mode to the operational mode.
Clock Modes
In some test configurations (such as back-to-back
configurations), a port must use the remote card clock to
successfully synchronize on the received signal.

the port found no errors when comparing
sent and received bit sequences.

sequences with sent bit sequences.
