6.3.2 TEST 
 
 
 
 
Select TEST Mode or Normal Operation from the parameters shown in the parentheses 
using the [
↑] [↓] arrow keys, then press ENTER. 
 
This sub-menu permits the user to select the following test modes: 
 
 
NORM 
(Normal) This clears any test modes or loopbacks, and places the unit back 
into an operational state. 
 
TX-CW 
(Transmit CW) This is a test mode, which forces the modulator to transmit a 
pure carrier (unmodulated). 
 
TX-1,0 
(Transmit an alternating 1,0,1,0 pattern) This is a test mode, which forces the 
modulator to transmit a carrier modulated with an alternating 1,0,1,0 pattern, at 
the currently selected symbol rate. This causes two discrete spectral lines to 
appear, spaced at +/- half the symbol rate, about the carrier frequency. This 
mode is used to check the carrier suppression of the Modulator.  
 
IF LOOP 
(IF Loopback) This test mode invokes an internal IF loop. This is a particularly 
useful feature, as it permits the user to perform a quick diagnostic test without 
having to disturb external cabling. Furthermore, all of the receive configuration 
parameters are temporarily changed to match those of the transmit side. 
When NORMAL is again selected, all of the previous values are restored. 
 
DIG LOOP 
(Digital Loopback) This test mode invokes a digital loopback, which loops data 
at the output of the Reed-Solomon encoder on the transmit side, back into the 
Reed-Solomon decoder on the receive side. This tests all of the interface, 
transmit baseband circuits, FEC encoder, FEC decoder, and buffer. 
 
I/O LOOP 
(Inward/Outward loopback) This test mode invokes two distinct loopbacks. The 
first of these is the inward loop, which takes data being received from the 
satellite direction, and passes it directly to the modulator. Simultaneously, the 
outward loop is invoked, whereby data being fed to the transmit data interface 
is routed directly back out of the receive data interface. 
 
RF LOOP 
(RF Loopback) This test mode is almost identical to the IF loop mode. All of 
the receive configuration parameters (except Rx Spectrum Invert) are 
temporarily changed to match those of the transmit side, however, no internal 
connection is made. This is useful for performing a satellite loopback. When 
NORMAL is again selected, all of the previous values are restored. 
 
 
The IF, Digital, and I/O Loopback modes  are illustrated in Figure 6-1.
