Loop-Back Modes:
The GARD 8000 Digital interface module is capable of performing 3 loop-back tests, Manual
loop-back, Local loop-back and Remote loop-back.
Loop-Back Mode Tests:
Each loop-back mode has an Enable / Disable button associated with it. By clicking on the
button the user can enable different types of loop-back tests. When a test is disabled the
assigned button is green, when a test is enabled the button will be red. The test will not start
until the execute button is selected.
There is a “Loop-Back Status” indicator that will turn red and display “ACTIVE” if any of the
loop-back tests are currently being run or will be green and “DISABLED” if all loop-back
modes are disabled. The Digital Interface will also issue a minor alarm while in loop-back and
the Digital Interface button on the inventory pages will be yellow.
The radio buttons next to each of the loop back tests allows the operator to enable or disable the
test. Click on the radio button to change the state and click on the “Execute” button to activate
the test.
Note
Loop-Back will continue to run if you exit the Test Page. Remember to
return to the Loop-Back Test Page to stop the test.
