POST INSTALLATION TEST
SDT Card Loopback Test
5. SDT Card Loopback Test
The patterns for loopback test, which can be set by the SDT card, are as follows:
1. Local Loopback
Loopback tests are performed only on the SDT card at the self-node.
2. Remote Loopback
Loopback tests are performed between different nodes. The result of this test can be confirmed not at the
self-node, but at the distant node.

Test Procedure
STEP 1: Designate the loopback test pattern by setting the P-SW key on the SDT (PA-SDTA) card (see Figure
6-15).
