MD2 Modem (07/2002)
4-15
Test Operating Mode "Test f
baud
"
Test operating mode "Test f
baud
" is a combination of the "Test f
L
" and "Test f
H
"
operating modes. This test operating mode can be used to determine the quality of
a 2-wire or 4-wire dedicated line by measuring the attenuation characteristics in
relation to the baud rate.
Fig. 4-10 shows one possible test configuration for a point-to-point connection with
2-wire half-duplex. This could also be a multidrop or star network. Any other
network type using 4-wire full-duplex could also be tested.
In Fig. 4-10 the MD2 on the left is a 2-wire terminal point and is set to test
operating mode "Test f
baud
" . The MD2 on the right is also a 2-wire terminal point
but its operating mode is set to "Normal".
Fig. 4-10 Test configuration for operating mode "Test f
baud
"
In the "Test f
baud
" test operating mode the MD2 modem continuously changes
between the upper and lower keying frequency in synchronization with the
transmission speed on the WAN port and thus on the 2-wire dedicated line.
The selected operating mode is signaled by the constantly lit "TXD" and "RTS"
LEDs. All other LEDs stay off.
If both keying frequencies are now correctly received by the opposite MD2, that
MD2 will signalize this by its "RXD" and "DCD" LEDs that both are constantly on. If
the "RXD" and "DCD" LEDs stay off or flash irregularly; then this indicates an
incorrect data reception. For possible causes: see section Possible Error Causes.
